First Class Friend X 2

Howdy!  I hope you all are as excited as I am about all the new MFT stamp sets and Die-namics being released in a few short days.  I have been enjoying my stamping time immensely!


The new First Class Friend Die-namics and Stamp Set has become one of my favorites.  It includes 4 Die-namics dies and a HUGE 6 X 8 stamp set that has sentiments perfect for long distance friends and family.



I used many of the included elements to create the focal panel on this card.  The large postage stamp frame is AMAZING to stamp with.  The postmark was die-cut.



For the floral embellishment, I die-cut a large Prima flower with my Pretty Posies Die-namics die.  The leaves are from the Upsy Daisy Die-namics die.  The center is a clear flower brad from my stash.  I tucked several ribbons on this card including some rose lace trim and Maya Road rose trim.



Here is another card using the First Class Friend Die-namics and Stamp Set with a bit of a more "fun" feel.  I went with the traditional USPS red and blue.  I added a tiny flag using the Mini Pennants Die-namics.  The tiny envelope is part of the First Class Friend Die-namics die set.  Did you see that it cuts and embosses?  It's ADORABLE and I just couldn't resist using it as a charm.  I tied it on with some cool twine I got from TCP.  I added a felt heart from the Notched Tag Die-namics set on the tiny postage stamp die-cut which is also included in the First Class Friend Die-namics die set. There is a whole lot of cute in this set!  ;)
