MFT April Release Countdown Day 5!

Hello everyone!  It's time for the newest MFT Countdown Kickoff!  As always, you are going to love this month's new products and I'm super excited to share them with you!

My card today features the new Toad-ally Awesome Set which features a bunch of cute toads with some fun sentiments.  To start my card, I first created my background scene.  For the sky, I blended some Fresh Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Ink onto smooth white card stock using the Cloud Stencil.  I then blended another piece of white card stock with some Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers and Blueprint Sketch Distress Inks for the water.  I used the Ocean Waves Die-namics to diecut a water-like border.

Next, I blended some Crushed Olive, Mowed Lawn and Peeled Paint Distress Inks for the grass and diecut these panels with the Grassy Edges Die-namics.  I adhered my grass and my water onto the panel that I had blended my clouds and then attached a white frame around it with some 3D foam tape.  I used the Pierced Rectangle Frames Die-namics for my frame but saw that these have been discontinued, so I added a link below for the Stitched Rectangle Frame Die-namics which are very similar.

For my toad, I stamped him onto smooth white card stock with black ink and colored him with Copics (YG01, YG23, YG95, YG99 and blush: RV10).  I used the coordinating dies to cut him out and adhered him with some 3d foam squares for some added dimension.  I then heat embossed my sentiment onto the water with Super Fine Detail White Embossing Powder and then adhered this whole panel to an A2 sized card base of Limelight Prestige Card Stock.

All new products will be available on Tuesday, April 3rd at 9:00 PM EST.  New product links at the bottom of this post will not be active until that time.
