MFT Blog Hop!

Hello there! You've come to my stop on the MFT Blog Hop! If you've just come from Candice's Blog, welcome! If you haven't been to all the stops before mine, you'll want to go back and see what you've missed! To start at the beginning, go to Kim's Blog HERE.

I made my project with the set Isabelle Paper Dolls, and I decorated a tin to hold the pieces. The paper is Euphoria by BasicGrey. I stamped Isabelle and a couple of her animal friends on the front. I colored with Copics and paper pieced her clothes, then I sponged around the image with SU! Soft Sky ink. The image panel and mat were cut with Rectangle Nestabilities. The sentiment is from What's the Story?. I thought it was perfect to use with this set -- my girls have been creating stories with these pieces all day! :)

I pierced two holes in the top of the tin and knotted ribbon inside to create a little handle, so it can be carried anywhere!

I made the paper dolls into magnetic dolls by stamping the images in Jet Black Stazon onto a magnetic sheet. I purchased the sheets at Staples. They have a glossy white front, and they are actually meant for printing out photos to create photo magnets. I colored the images with Copics. Here's my advice: heat set the ink for a looooong time before you color so you don't get black ink smeared into your coloring. Ask me how I know this...

The magnetic sheets are very thin and cut very smoothly. That was the easy part. ;)

Here is Isabelle as a mermaid. My girls have been calling her Ariel! :)

Since my oldest daughter's high school mascot is a panda, I had to turn the bear costume into a panda. Doesn't she look so cute?

I've had so much fun with this set -- I've had fun with all the new MFT sets! Be sure to join us at the MFT Forum tonight at 9:00 pm for the release party!

Thanks so much for stopping by to visit! Now, the next stop on the Blog Hop is Cindy Haffner's Blog -- she's sure to have some eye candy for you! Enjoy! :)
