Happy Bird-day {MFTWSC7}

Are you ready for this week's MFT Wednesday Stamp Club sketch #7? Well I hope so, because here it is, and it's a fun one! I know...I say that each week, but hey, I adore sketches!!!

I did a loose interpretation of the sketch this week...still with all the elements but I needed a Pure Innocence fix and well, You're So Tweet (will be back in the MFT Boutique soon) arrived in my mailbox at just the right time!

She's stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and done up with a combo of copic colouring and paper piecing. The patterned papers are from October Afternoon Thrift Shop.

I really wanted to a layer of paper pleating, like on my card for last week's sketch, so I pulled out my 3/8" rosette die-namic and got to work. AND, I decided to film a little video tutorial of the process. Be gentle on me...it's my first ever video tutorial and my friend Leslie was a fabulous film producer.

And look at that adorable tiny little rosette! It was made with two half inch wide pieces that I trimmed off the pleated layer...sweet! It's topped with the smallest flower from the flower trio die-namic and I added another element of red along the bottom of the pleated layer with the little open scallop border die-namic.

There's a prize each week for one participant, chosen at random. You may use any stamps and supplies that you wish. Each week a keyword is assigned to the sketch, and this week's keyword is MFTWSC7. All you need to do to enter is upload your card to the gallery at Splitcoast and enter the given keyword in the keyword box during the upload process. After the deadline (noon Eastern on Tuesday) we randomly choose a winner from that week's entries and the winner will receive a $15 gift voucher. If the winning card uses MFT stamps, the participant will earn a $5 bonus, for a total of a $20 gift voucher!
