MFT Guest Designer Challenge

Scroll down to see today's sneak peeks for CDS, please.

It's been a day. . .one bummer of a day. . .a day that makes me wonder why I ever started home schooling.  I'm sure I'll remember why tomorrow, but today. . .not so much.  I won't bore you with the details of the weekend, as it was a rough one too.  Needless to say after that comment, I didn't get a chance to make even one card for VSN.

I needed something to cheer me up, so I thought I would try my hand at the MFT Guest Designer for March. The challenge was to use dimension with the MFT Die-namics.  I have a 'few' in my stash, so I pulled out my Sheltering Tree Die-namic and my Fresh Cut Grass Die-namics.  I added the dimension using two different widths of dimensionals to the grass.  My kids were so impressed with that (too bad they weren't impressed by my English lecture, lol).  I used the Fred Bear Goes Camping set from MFT, because I need to be more of a 'happy camper' right about now.  This too shall pass. . .(sigh).
 Here's a closer look at the grass, and my attempt at dimension.
Stamps:  Fred Bear Goes Camping
Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black, Vintage Photo Distress Ink
Paper:  buttercream, OA Campfire
Accessories:  Copics, Sheltering Tree Die-namics, Fresh Cut Grass Die-namics, dimensionals, sponges

  8. Sorry you had a bad weekend.. Believe me homeschooling IS the answer if you saw what my son has gone through in the public schools here in NC. You are doing a great job.. Not all moms could do this. Your card is so sweet. Fred is my kind of bear. I love camping and camp fires. Great job and hang in there.
