MFT September Release Countdown | Day 1

Hello and welcome to day 1 of the My Favorite Things September release countdown. For the next 5 days, we're counting down to the September release, sharing cards and ideas using the new products. 

For my card today I'm sharing a card that I created for this week's episode of MFTv. It uses the new Interactive Birthday Cake die which is now available for individual purchase, to create a fall themed cake on my card! ;)


I love the interactive cake die and really wanted to create something fall themed with it. It lets you be a cake decorator with paper and glue, and since I don't really like to cook and bake IRL, this is the next best thing lol! ;)

I diecut the main cake images from white cardstock and added some earthy tone coloured Distress inks to both pieces creating an ombre effect. I then added some water droplets and dabbed them off with a paper towel to give them a distressed look. I then assembled the cake so the top later would slide up from behind the bottom layer.


I added the scallop details for the cake using the Trail Mix paper pack and tehn I added a bunch of stamped images to dress up the cake. I used new stamps from this release including Bold Blooms, Harvest Buddies, Fall Friends and Happy Hedgehogs. I loved mixing and matching all the images for the decorations on the cake.

I completed the card by stamping the sentiment on a strip of white cardstock and adhering it under the cake, and then I added some clear sequins in the open area above and below the cake. I also added clear glitter to all of the leaves, acorns and mushrooms. You can see the video sharing how I created the card on the MFT YouTube channel (link in my blog sidebar).

Thanks so much for joining me for day 1 of the September release countdown. All of the new products that we're sharing all week will officially be available in the MFT online store tonight at 10pm EST!

Make sure to head over to the MFT blog for more ideas from the creative team and giveaways! ;)
