Mia's Mail

My oldest daughter is off to college and I've been collecting mini Lawn Fawn stamps for her college mail.
Here is the first card I sent off...

My first MFT Wednesday Stamp Club Card

So, I'm new to the My Favorite Things Wednesday Stamp Club and thought it would be fun to participate... and it was, I used the provided sketch for inspiration and went to town.  I used my MFT Die-namics Little Open Scallop Strip along with other dies, embossing, trims and such but when I was done I realized it didn't do any true stamping, oh my.   I really like the card as is and was inspired by the sketch and MFT dies so I'll wait until next time to use a stamp.
