MFTeasers - Day Two!


Hello there! I'm back with more MFTeasers! Today we're previewing three more sets -- and I have previews of two of them!

My first project features Emma and Her Backpack. It's SO cute and just perfect for back-to-school or any adventure! I made a card and a backpack tag for my daughter Caroline, who starts First Grade in just a few weeks!


You'll see I used three Die-namics dies on the card: Framed Greetings, Jumbo Scallops, and the NEW Small Scallop Border. The card base is a Fossil Scalloped Notecard. I embellished with Cotton Twill and a Summer Collection Button.


I made a coordinating tag for Caroline's backpack. Her initials were stamped using the Banner Day Alphabet. I again used the new Die-namics Small Scallop Border -- it adds such a sweet extra layer!


I used Fred Bear Goes Camping for my second project today. I made a little "S'mores Box" using Jody's Holiday Basket Template. I again used Banner Day Alphabet to stamp the word "s'mores." The panel behind Fred has been torn and sponged to look like it's been burned -- I think Fred needs to be more careful! ;)


I packaged S'mores Mix in a small cello bag and placed it inside the box. I just mixed together some Teddy Grahams, mini marshmallows, and milk chocolate chips. There's no beating a real campfire s'more, but the mix is a yummy, no-flame alternative! :)


Ready for some TOP-SECRET news? Today, there is a prize hidden on one of the designer's blog posts. As you make your way through the Teaser Time posts, simply leave a comment on each blog, for your chance to win one of the Brand Spankin' New stamp sets being released on August 4th. A winner will be chosen from the comments on the pre-selected blog before tomorrow's teaser list goes live, and will be posted on Kim's blog HERE. Be sure to check tomorrow to see if YOU are the winner. You can play along each day for your chance to win. We will be giving away NINE new stamp sets this week!

Don't forget -- you can find the master list of today's participating designers HERE on Kim's blog after 11 am!

I hope you enjoyed Day Two! I'll be back with Day Three tomorrow! :)

Have a great day -- thanks so much for stopping by! :)
