MFT August Release Countdown Day 5

Hi everyone! Today is the first day of the My Favorite Things August release countdown. This release is packed with amazing new products! You’ll love them!

The new products will officially be available on the MFT online store on August 8th at 9:00 pm EST (= Europe: August 9th at 3:00 am CET).

Today, I’m showcasing the newest Shining Stars Die-namics





Most of the supplies I used for this project are linked in the list at the bottom of this post. I’m really in LOVE with the font of this die. Wow! So awesome! I decided to create a scene to highlight the sentiment. The "It’s written in the" is from the Written in the Stars stamp set. I heat embossed it with white embossing powder. The “Stars” word die is from the Shining Stars Die-namics and I die cut it from white cardstock. I attached it to the background using foam pads for more dimension. I also added a layer of Wink of Stella clear glitter to the die-cut. It looks so shiny and beautiful. I sponged the background with Distress inks using blending tools. I used masking paper to create the hills. I just cut some waves in the paper and used them as stencils. I splattered white ink over the sky to create the stars. I die cut the stars from Silver Sparkle cardstock. I fixed the scene to a top-folded card base made from Kraft cardstock.

Beautiful background love the brightness of the green hills under the sky. Is the white in between just a little gap between blending? Adds interest. Love the card
