MCT May Release Blog Hop

It's here!! Finally the full release is available for purchase!! Oh my goodness, I can hear the plastic melting way over here! I just know you're going to love this release as much as we do. One of the most fun to work with in, well, EVER! And I have two cards to share today to prove it. ;)

My first card features the new set, Live, Love, Laugh and Be Happy. This set comes with several sentiments as well as adorable background stamps made for the butterfly dies {two of them seen here} available in the Pretty Butterflies and Dragonflies die set. I also used the previously released cartoon cloud die, popped with foam tape for dimension.


 The sentiment comes with the set, as well as the butterfly trails. I used the index tab for the sentiment block.

In addition to the orange plaid background stamps on the pink butterflies, I added stickles for extra pizzaz. I think it worked!

My second card features another new set from this release. In addition to the Pretty Butterflies and Dragonflies set {see the small butterfly? Also included with the butterfly dies!} I also cut two of the flowers from a scrap piece and added them with foam tape to give the card more pop.


I used the Speech Bubble Word Die, "hello" and the sentiment "there" from the included stamp set.  The adorable scallop border came with the paper pad I used for this card, Kaisercraft Happy Snaps, 6.5x6.5 paper pad.
