April Release Hippety-Hop with MFT

Published by Michele Boyer at 11:59 pm under My Designs, My Favorite Things

Hi everyone!  Welcome to the April New Release blog hop with My Favorite Things!  If you’re just popping in here, you may want to hop on over to the beginning with Kim.  (You don’t want to miss anything, do you?)

As I mentioned the other day, this month there are four new releases:  Girls Night Out, Ben Paper Dolls, Cuddle Up Carter and Flopsey’s Flowers.

I’m Sorry

     ISFF

Flopsey is looking a little forlorn.  I’m not sure if he did something wrong or if he’s just feeling sorry for a friend.  Either way, he’s cute FFCUholding his little bouquet. 

After stamping and coloring the image, I stamped the flowers a second time, colored, cut them out and then added them to the bunch, flipping them over so the bouquet is now full and round.  I added ultra-mini black brads to the flower centers and colored over his eyes with a black 3-d gel pen to add definition, a bit of dimension and some shine.

Next up on the blog hop list is the very sweet and very talented Jessie!  A couple more important things before you go…

  • There’s a New Release Cocktail Party in the MFT Forum from 9 p.m. EST - 10 p.m. EST tonight (Wednesday, 4/1).
  • New sets go live at 10 p.m. EST.
  • First 50: potluck
    Hook-up: April collection $51.90 retail, on sale for $49.95 if purchased within the first 48 hours after the release.
  • And last but not least, don’t forget to vote for your favorite MFT Idol(s).  These gals have been coming up with some **AMAZING** stuff!  See their submissions here and vote here.  Polls are open until 10 p.m. tonight (4/1)!
