Summer Pinwheels


It's day four of teasers for the July MFT release. We have two gorgeous sets to share today and one fabulous die-namic!

First I have a card from our vintage line - Inspired by Summer. I fell in love with this tree image as soon as I saw it and I know you will too!


Isn't it beautiful? I coloured the tree with copics and added lots of layers and details with various Die-namics.


Inside I've used part of another image from the set and another beautiful sentiment.

Now it's time to introduce you to the Perfect Pinwheel....


This is a fun Die-namic and stamp combo set. You only run the die through your machine twice to make this amazing six petalled pinwheel!


I've used my pinwheel and two of the sentiments from the set to alter this little giftbox. I created the "stem" by wrapping a bamboo skewer first with red line tape, then baker's twine. I've used various Die-namics to decorate the box.


I know the rest of the MFT team have some GORGEOUS samples for you today, be sure to stop by and leave comments to go into the draw to win a MFT voucher to spend!

Here are the Die-namics I've used on today's projects:

    Great projects. The summer set card had me looking closely as to not miss any detail! :) The pinwheel in the box is a great idea. Would be great for a table setting or a party favor. :)
