MFTeaser - Let's Celebrate You

Welcome to day six of seven fabulous days of MFT teasers!!!


It's Pure Innocence day and I've created a sweet birthday card to add to my stash, using Pure Innocence Birthday Girl. Isn't she absolutely adorable!!!

I stamped her with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored her with copic markers, but I paper pieced her dress with a fun floral print from the Echo Park So Happy Together collection. I couldn't believe my luck when I searched through my stash of buttons and found this little gem with the star in the center. I thought it was perfect for the balloon, and the edges are really sparkly IRL too! I cut out the red patterned paper using the new Designer Labels 3 STAX Die-namics and layered some circles which I cut out using the Circles 2 STAX Die-namics.

Here's that gorgeous Plentiful Petals Die-namics again, cut from two patterned papers with a yellow button center. I used the Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics to cut out the teal piece for the vertical strip and added some Whip Cream grosgrain ribbon along the horizontal seam in the background. The base layer is Sno Cone card stock.

On the inside I stamped the image with Memento Lady Bug and another sentiment from the set with black ink. The Jumbo Squiggle Border was perfect for cutting out the striped paper accent.
