It’s time for another sketch with My Favorite Things‘ Wednesday Stamp Club!

This week I’ve used Vertical Greetings Stamp and Die-namics set, Botanical Beauty and Leafy Flourish Die-namics.  The sentiment panel is layered atop die-cut tablet backing for added stability (and thickness…because I like thickness.)  🙂

Since there wasn’t room for the bigger layers of the flower, I tucked the first two layers beneath the sentiment panel, placing a foam booster between layers.

On the inside, I placed two more layers of flowers (again, with a booster between layers), and added a Hot Fudge punched circle as the center.  The sentiment is from Big Greetings.

You can find direct links to DT samples HERE on the MFT blog.  The info is also posted in the MFT Forum in SCS.  (Look for the most recent WSC thread numbered 69.)   And remember, if you upload your card to the SCS gallery using the keyword shown on the sketch, you will have the chance to win up to $20 in MFT money!  One winner is chosen at random each week.

Thanks for visiting!  Have a great day!  🙂

Welcome to Day 1 of My Favorite Things‘ May release previews!  Seriously? It’s almost May?  I just can’t believe it.   Regardless…away we go!  🙂

Teaser PRIZES begin today so be sure to leave comments as you look.  You can find direct links to all participating DT HERE.  Each day, two prize vouchers are held by two members of our design team.  You’ll have all week to comment on each of the posts and all winners will be posted on Kim’s blog on Tuesday, May 1st around 7:30pm.

Today we’re previewing Who’s That Girl Plays Golf and Claire Keay’s You A-Mews Me.

As you can see, I’ve used You A-Mews Me.  Love the little kitty suit.  🙂

I colored my tiger kitty with Copic markers, adding in the stripes by feathering in toward the center from the outside edges of the suit.

Along the left side I placed a die-cut strip of our new Squiggle Border and used MFT’s Pet Charms Die-namics to create a little cat-themed charm.

On the inside, I stamped my sentiment, a silhouette and used the little fish bones from the charm on the front.  (Waste not, want not!)
