The challenge this month is a sketch and since I'm part of the MFT Design Team, I wanted to help get your creative juices flowing so I created this fun card. I love the row of bling along the Wild Cherry strip, which I cut out using the Mini Monarch Border Die-namics.
I reached for my much neglected à la modes Miss You a Latte set and paired her with patterned papers from the My Mind's Eye Gnome Sweet Gnome collection. I stamped her with Memento Tuxedo Black and coloured her with copic markers. I cut out the image panel with the Rounded Banner STAX Die-namics. I cut apart the sentiment and attached it to the image panel with my Tiny Attacher (which I finally picked up last week and I adore it!). The base layer is Kraft card stock and I layered it onto Hot Fudge for a punch of dark colour. I added a Hot Fudge grosgrain ribbon bow but I find it really difficult to edit a photo so the brown doesn't look like black. Anyone else have that problem? Anyone know how to fix it without washing out the other colours???
On the inside I stamped another sentiment from the set and mimicked the layout on the front of the card.
Hopefully you'll find some time to play along with the MFT Guest Designer Challenge - October. The prize is huge and you also get to play along with the design team for teasers! Fun!!!
Here are the Die-namics I used:
Thanks for stopping by!

What a perfect card, as I'm sure the one on the left is a grande non-fat no water extra hot tazo chai! Lovely paper, gorgeous bow and I need more deets on this Tiny Attacher you speak of :)
So sweet! I love the pop of red in the border and her shirt! My browns end up looking like black, too - I have yet to figure out how to fix that.
She's so cute - I love this image and the stapled sentiment is so clever!
Black, brown, who cares, it still rocks GF!!!
