MFT October Release Day!


Today is the day!  All of the new October stamps and dies are available now over at the MFT Shop.  There are lots of amazing new holiday images just in time to get those card started.  BUT I have a card today sharing one of our new dies and I'm using it in a completely different way than its intended.  AND its not a holiday card either.  I had to throw a rainbow in here!

Here is my last card for the October release using the Trifold Slider Die...

MFT October Release

This genius die is used to create an interactive slider card.  You can check out its intended use by clicking HERE.  But I had to change it up and use it for a clean and simple, graphic card detail.  

To create this card, I cut the sliders out in rainbow colors.  Then I cut the same sliders out in fun foam.  I attached each color to a fun foam dimensional with liquid glue.  Then, for a random tiered look, I attached each slider die cut to the card front.  Last, I stamped the sentiment and a little heart from the Love is in the Mail set.

After die cutting the Trifold Sliders, I had a big pile of perfectly perfect rainbow scraps.  I just couldn't let them go to waste!  So, I lined them up on a card base to create this one layer card.

I used the same Love is in the Mail stamp set to add the sentiment which finished off the card.

Thanks so much for hanging out with me this week.  Have a great day!
