Die-namics Feature & Pre-Release Pep Rally - August Release

Now that we've teased and tempted you all week long, it's almost time for you to shop for your favorite Brand Spankin' New products from MFT.



But first... it's time for our Die-namics Feature and Pre-Release Pep Rally!

We've taken an in-depth look at this month's Die-namics, while re-visiting the amazing sets being released tonight at 10 PM EST RIGHT HERE in the MFT Boutique.

While we are at it, how about we make your life even easier with a "cheat sheet" of all that's new?  Head over to the MFT Blog to print out a shopping list.

I revisited Lisa Johnson's new stamp set, Circus Spectacular and made 2 easy-to-replicate clean and simple cards.


The images are all stamped with amuse studio ink.  I used a Circle STAX to create a perch for the focal elements.  I threaded some linen thread through the bars on the cart for a little added detail.  I added three brads along the edge of the circle to fill in some of the empty space.


I used the Ticket Strip Die-namics and created a decorative ticket using elements in the stamp set.  The cute little circus token element is another stamp in the set, stamped on a coordinating die from the set. 



I was inspired by a card in Papercrafts magazine to create this card.  The tiny circus token stamp is the star on this creation.  It was stamped in 5 different colors and then I added a double row of them.  


One of the tickets, using the Ticket Strip Die-namics, was stamped with a ticket stamp.  The other was created using elements in the stamp set.


I used a centering ruler to help me place them evenly.






Here are the details about the upcoming release:

  18. I better go get dinner so I'm ready to long on in time! I love this circus set! I love it's versatility, I love that it's not too cutesy, I love all its bits and pieces! I'm so excited! And I love that you used pastels and those circles for five cents -- does anyone else miss the cent key on the typewriter keyboard? Oh gosh, does anyone else remember it!???
