You Mean the World to Me

Hi ladies!  I'm back for day 2 of MFT Teaser Time with another of the soon-to-be-released à la modes stamp set, You Mean the World to Me.

Isn't she adorable?  I just love her holding the "globe".  As with the set yesterday, she is versatile.  You can "go green" or "go sentimental".  Given the choice, I always choose sappy, so I chose the sweet sentiment included in the set.


She is colored with Copic markers.  I drew in the ground with Prismacolor pencils.
 


I wanted to add some detailed stitching to my Simply Scallops Die-namics die-cut.  I die-cut another Simply Scallops die-cut and traced the edges of it with a pencil.  I then stitched along the pencil line one stitch at a time with my sewing machine.  It didn't take too terribly long and I like the added detail it adds to this otherwise simple card.





Here are some details about the release this Tuesday night:

  • The MFT release is on March 15th at 10 PM EST. It includes this month's VIP collection and the 2 brand new à la modes stamp sets.

  7. CUTE card! I love the gray and the way you used the Simply Scallops die.
    And great that the stamp, itself, has the U.S. off-center. Another awesome card. :)

  9. Wow, great job of coloring and STITCHING!! I couldn't talk my machine into doing scallops -- nor would it take such heavy thread. How'd you do that??

  12. Excellent work!
    Jodi, what paper cutter do you use? Your cuts are always perfectly straight, no wobbly mats. I've tried (easily) 10 different ones and none of them cut as precise as yours.

    Thanks,
    Sharon
