MFT New Product Launch - Watt's Up?!

Welcome to the New Product Launch with My Favorite Things! All products from this release are NOW AVAILABLE for purchase at the MFT Store. Check out the click-n-shop links at the bottom of this post for your shopping convenience.

I have three cards to share with you tonight featuring Watt's Up? paired with the Die-namics Lightbulb, a match made in crafty heaven!

First up is a bright and cheery number using the Sun Ray stencil as a backdrop for a Red Hot Lightbulb on a Blueprints 15 panel.

I'm sorta in.love. with my embossing paste this week and combined it with the Sun Ray Stencil for a bit of texture on the Lemon Drop layer. The sentiment from Watt's Up? was stamped on one leg of a Primitive White Rectangle Frame for uniform size and shape.

Inside is the remaining part of the sentiment started on the front - SHINE in Red Hot Hybrid Ink. Elements from Blueprints 15 bring in the rest of my color combo.

My second card uses the Lightbulb Die-namics in the form of a cheery kite. To finish off my kite look, I borrowed the kite ties from Fly a Kite and Jumbo Kite Die-namics in Red Hot. The Flat Bottom Cloud is stamped with Pinstripe Background in Grout Gray ink for fun.

I again created a background using embossing paste and a stencil created with a scrap piece of card stock and the Polka Dot Cover Up Die-namics on a Sno Cone layer. I can't.stop. using Blueprints 15, so I apologize if you're tiring of these fun angled layers!

Of course, Watt's Up? was the perfect sentiment for this one. And how fun are those Sequins raindrops, and did I mention how much I puffy heart this release?!

Last, but not least, is a fun Lightbulb shaker card using the Sequins Die-namics for the shaker fill. The combination of the Lightbulb and Rectangle Frames Die-namics makes for super slick shaker cards.

The top side of the shaker is layered with vellum instead of typical acetate to give the illusion of a traditional lightbulb. The only drawback is not seeing those awesome Sequins as clearly...ah, the dilemmas of a papercrafter.

Inside is a mix of Blueprints 15, Sequins and Horizontal Stitched Strips Die-namics with a sentiment in Orange Fizz Hybrid Ink from Watt's Up. I think this would be a fun card to give to a certain special student (George) who will be graduating from kindergarten soon.

And there you have another look at Watt's Up and the Die-namics Lightbulb NOW available at My Favorite Things!

Then I truly love your idea of the light bulb being a balloon. That card just makes me smile and the whole idea and the way you put it together is just so so sweet and happy all rolled into one card. Boy do I need to buy a thosaurus. hehee. Anyway, as for your last card where you made a shaker card out of your die cut sequins. LOVE IT! Your use of colors and your design on all your cards is just tops. Thanks for sharing with us and giving me one more reason why I need a second job. lol....Hugs Lisa G
