April MFTeaser .....and a sketch!!!

Sorry I'm late this morning.....had a bit of a sleepy start!! But I'm on my second cuppa joe, so I should be okay now!!! I also had to take a bunch of photos of my weekend creations and it's rather bleak and overcast here in Ontario, so I had to fiddle with them a bit in Photoshop!!

Anyhoooooo...here is my first Teaser for a new My Favorite Things set called Happy Mother's Day! Easy enough name to remember, right?? It's this perfect mini set, just right for making M-Day cards and gifts, but also for any women in your life that you just want to say thanks to. It comes with the main focal image, already framed with a lovely sentiment that runs all the way around the outside, which you can stamp all in one piece, or trim off the outside frame and use just the image. Then there is the little floral photo corner stamp that I just LOVE....so purty!!! And the sentiment, Have a Wonderful Mother's Day!!

I stamped the main square on Wausau bright white cardstock and coloured it in using my Copic markers and my jump off point was actually a piece of the Ginger Blossom SU dp! I didn't end up using that particular piece, but it was my inspiration! (**Also yesterday I was asked which Copic I used for skin colour on my images. I almost always use E00 which is called Skin White.) The card base is regular size in Ruby Red and the patterned paper is another piece from the Ginger Blossom pack and I stamped the photo corners on top of it and coloured them in using my Copics. I added a scalloped Groovy Guava piece at the bottom and don't you LOVE the flowers at the bottom?? The middle one is a Prima Fancy satin flower but the back one is actually a white Magenta flower. Don'tcha wanna know how I make it all polka dotted like that??? Well, you'll have to wait until the Release Party to find out!!!

Also, I used today's MFT Sketch Challenge of the week for this card!!!! Be sure to head over to SCS and check out MFTSC24. It's nice and easy and perfect for any set with a square focal image!

This set, along with another great set and another set of digital paper, will be released on Wednesday night!!! We will be having another awesome Cocktail Party, full of yakkin' and stampin' and you can even find out how to become the next MFT Guest Designer!!! Woohoo!! So be sure to save Wednesday night on your calendar....all the fun starts over at SCS in the MFT Forum at 9pm EST!!
