Hi everyone! It’s time for this month’s Creative Challenge with My Favorite Things! The MFT Design Team Creative Challenge is a monthly feature where we are challenged to explore our creative side using a specific theme, product, or technique. This month we are designing with MFT’s flower Die-namics. I created two cards using Layered Rose.
On my first, I used the stitched strip element from Blueprints 1 along with Sweet Tooth, Grape Jelly, Blu Raspberry, Lemon Drop and Wild Cherry card stock.
The sentiment, from Pretty Poppies, was stamped in Black Licorice ink. In the center of each flower, I placed an Enamel Dot from My Mind’s Eye.
On the inside, I stamped part of a sentiment from Gift Card Greetings II and added a Gumdrop Green Layered Rose and stitched strip.
On my second card, I used the negative space from the die-cut Layered Rose to create my design with the Wild Cherry card stock showing through. I popped up the Sweet Tooth panel on foam tape and placed a Black Licorice button (stitched with Hemp Cord) in each flower center. The sentiment, from Pretty Poppies, was stamped in Black Licorice ink.
Here’s a peek at the dimension. To keep the panel balanced, I placed foam tape around the four edges as well as around each of the four flowers.
I die-cut one more flower from the Sweet Tooth panel on the inside and punched a Black Licorice 1/4″ circle for the flower center. The sentiment “thinking of you” is also from Pretty Poppies. (I really love the sentiments/fonts in this set.)
