The challenge for this month's My Favorite Things guest designer challenge was to use MFT's Die-Namics dies to get die-mensional on your project. I used three different MFT Die-Namics dies to make my card.
I started by coloring the girl image from the Enjoy Every Moment set. I went with warm shades of orange, accented with a rosy pink. It's hard to see in the photo, but I added a teeny, tiny crystal to her headband and some Stickles to the heart on her dress--they seemed like good, girly details. Once she was colored, I carefully cut her out and set her aside to build a simple scene with lots of dimension to set her in.
The scene is arranged on a blue panel embossed with polka dots. I used the grass die to cut three green strips that I placed on the bottom using foam tape between each strip for dimension. I used the sun die on a patterned paper scrap to get a fun, dotted piece. It too is attached to the scene with foam tape. I added an orange button to the center, tied with some baker's twine for a finished look. The flat-bottom clouds are cut from felt, adding both dimension and texture. After all of the pieces were arranged, I put the little girl in place, again using foam tape. The set's "you're too cute" sentiment is stamped in orange on a banner die cut and slipped underneath the edge of the image. I attached the scene to a patterned paper panel, then a yellow cardfront.
Here's a side view of the card that shows all of the different layers. I guess this is one card that will definitely need to be hand-delivered to its recipient!
