***this is my second post for today, please scroll down for more MFT goodness!!***

Today is day ONE of this month's My Favorite Things teasers, and I am THRILLED to get to show you this new set from Stephanie Fizer!! OMG!!! I love it!!! It is called Tiny Town, and it is SO CUTE!! When I saw the super cute little images in this set, I knew that I wanted to use Taylor's sketch from a couple of week's ago...it is SO perfect!!

Before I get to my card, ready for some TOP-SECRET news? Today, there is a prize hidden on one of the designer's blog posts. As you make your way through the Teaser Time posts, simply leave a comment on each blog, for your chance to win one of the Brand Spankin' New stamp sets being released on September 1st.

Be sure to check tomorrow to see if YOU are the winner. You can play along each day for your chance to win. As always, you can find the master list of participating designers HERE Kim's blog.

When I saw the super cute little images in this set, I knew that I wanted to use Taylor's sketch from a couple of week's ago...it is SO perfect!!

Crazy 4 Challenges- Lattice

This week's challenge over at the Crazy 4 Challenges Blog is a challenge to use lattice work on your card or project. You can use punches, dies, stamps, paper, or scoring, like I did, the sky is the limit!! Wanna play along? Here are the details!!

If you would like to play along with us, all you have to do is create a card/project, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword C4C52. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see it too.

Not only that, this post is serving TRIPLE duty!! It is one of the sets we are showing teaser's of at My Favorite Things, Clearly Sentimental About Harvesting, PLUS, it goes along with this month's Guest Designer Challenge for MFT, so yaaaaay me!!

This month's challenge is to make a card using your sentiment as the main focus on your card. This is something I NEVER do, so it was a challenge for me. This card doesn't go along with what my norm is, but it is always good to step out of your comfort zone a little, right? For more details on this month's challenge, check out the SCS Member forum!!

Now that I am done talking your leg off, here are some details about my card. I stamped my sentiment on a piece of Gina K. White with Memento Rich Cocoa ink. I then layered it with Hot Fudge cardstock. The other colors on this card are Pink Pirouette and Wild Cherry(MFT). I used my Scor-pal to make my lattice work on the DP layer, a piece of Bella Rose DP to be exact. My brads are from American Crafts, and my ribbon is from Michael's.
Well, that is it for me for now!! Here is the MFT release info, just incase you missed it on my original Tiny Town post!!
