Tea & Baseball - MFT Teaser Time

Hi all and welcome to day 4 of MFT Teaser Time.  Today I have 2 cards to share that are as different as night and day... or tea and baseball.  LOL


Up first, let me show you my masculine card using the new ALL-STAR Die-namics and Stamp Set.  This set packs a punch, offering MANY sporting themed dies and stamps.  I chose to use the baseball Die-namics die and place it on the cool trophy stand Die-namics die.  The baseball has "cut-out stitches", but also offers an adorable stamp, which I used here.  I LOVE that the trophy base includes a tiny name plate that you can use to stamp a variety of words on, that are included in the set of course.  :) 



I went with a masculine color combo, and kept this one clean and simple.  If you look closely, you can see the cut outs on the baseball, so you could use it without the stamps as well.



I finished off the inside with another die included in the set and the solid baseball bat as a decorative accent.



Here is a look at the ALL-STAR Die-namics and Stamp Set, and a couple ways you can combine them.





Now, let's get girly, shall we?  I made a card with the new Always Time for Tea Die-namics and Stamp Set, also.  There are a TON of tiny parts and pieces to the die set and a HUGE 6 X 8 stamp set that you can use to dress up your teapot and teacup in a huge number of ways.


I chose to use the retro flower on mine.  Notice the decorative accents come in 2 sizes for most of the "patterns" so you can match your teapot and teacup.  :)   The large die from the Layered Label Die-namics layers really well with the Oval Open Scallop Doily Die-namics die.



I finished off the inside with a sweet sentiment included in the set and a die-cut teacup.



Here is a closer look at the Always Time for Tea Die-namics and Stamp Set:
