Kiss Slowly, Forgive Quickly

Hi all and welcome to the MFT December Release New Product Tour.  ALL the Brand Spankin' New products we've been teasing you with showing you over the past 7 days are available NOW, right HERE


In need of advice or words of encouragement?  This month's Triple Scoop Stamp Set, Pearls of Wisdom, is just what you need.  MFT generously offers you a FREE stamp set with a value of $15.95, with a $60 purchase (prior to shipping/tax).  


Pearls of Wisdom is an amazing assortment of sweet sentiments.  I find it uplifting and found MANY sentiments in there that I couldn't wait to use.  :)  My card tonight uses the sentiment:

  • Kiss Slowly, Forgive Quickly
Sounds like sound advice to me.  *wink*  I whipped out the new By the Letters Die-namics dies and used the X (for kisses) in a grid formation.  I separated them with a simple stitched line, and framed it all with the First Class Friends Die-namics postage stamp frame.  



Tip: I drew in the grid with a pencil before I stitched.   It gave me an easy guide to follow.



I've seen Michele Boyer do cool button "wraps" like this before and decided to do a little something different since I kept the embellishments light on this card.



I love this new alphabet die set, By the Letters.  The letters are so fresh and clean.



Happy Shopping!

Don't forget to spend $60 and add the Triple Scoop Set to your cart!
