Good morning! My Favorite Things has two fun new releases this week, Punch a Bunch and Ride Em’ Cowgirl available Wednesday, March 5. Check out the MFT forum for details!
Bloomin’ Wonderful
This card uses the new Punch a Bunch set which is actually designed to be used with the Marvy oval punches. There are oval frames, words to fit inside the frames and several sets of flowers and stems.
I chose to use one of the word strips, bending it a bit into the shape of a flower petal. (It reads “Hope your day is bloomin’ wonderful.”) I then stamped one of the flower bunches in the center and added the tiny white brads as accents. The flower itself is raised on foam squares, as is the panel beneath it.

Happy Trails
And here’s Ride Em’ Cowgirl! How fun! I stamped the girl onto Naturals Ivory cardstock twice… once for the base and once for the arm and rope. I stamped the dress portion on the blue paper, the boots on brown and the ground on green. I cut the arm and rope as one, only adhering the arm and top of the rope, then I lightly bent the ends of the rope so they’re slightly lifted from the card.
ETA: If you decide to sponge AFTER you put the card together, you might want to mask the arm… otherwise you’ll have a girl with a hairy arm. Don’t look too closely. lol.)
