That's Just Crappie

Hi everyone and welcome to day 2 (of 2) of MFT Teaser Time.  Today we are featuring the second SUPER cute à la modes stamp set: Something's Fishy.  This set is cute with a capital C!  LOVE it . 


I used Basic Grey Marjolaine patterned paper as my inspiration and used the same soft, earthy colors for my Copic coloring and embellishments.  I used the brand new Simply Scallops Die-namics die.  It is included in this month's VIP Collection!  It's the perfect size, and cuts the whole shape out, which makes it much easier to use IMHO.  I used one of my FAVE Heidi Swapp ghost shape flowers, with a center punched from the patterned paper pack I used.


She is colored with Copic markers.  I colored her jeans first, and then used a piece of denim fabric drenched in colorless blender refill to add the denim texture.  The fish is paper-pieced with a pattern from the paper pack.  I drew in the ground with Prismacolor pencils.


Here is a peek inside.  I used more of the patterned paper, and a fun sentiment from the set.  Cracks me up! 



Here are some details about the release this Tuesday night:

  • The mid-month MFT release is on January 18th at 10 PM EST.
