For my card tonight, I started by stamping my sentiment, from the Clearly Sentimental about Abundance set, on Vanilla card stock, and then cut it out with my Oval Nesties. I layered that on top of the new Oval Decorative Doily Die-namics....YAAAAAY! Finally and OVAL!! Sorry, I am just REALLY excited!! LOL! I cut that out of Black Licorice card stock. My paper is from the MME Lost and Found Union Square pad. Vintage Flourishes, cut out with the new Vintage Flourish Die-namics, were attached about and below the sentiment with a large Michael's brad. I used MFT Cherry on Top Felt for my Rolled Gardenia Die-namics. The ribbon I used is from the MFT Black Collection.

I Love Autumn and MFT!!!

Welcome to day two of this month's New Release Teasers from My Favorite Things! Tonight, we have the gorgeous new Inspired by Autumn, and Fred Bear and his Megaphone. Believe it or not, I went with the Inspired By set!!!

For my card, I started by stamping my pumpkin with Tuxedo Rich Cocoa on X-Press It Blending card, and then colored it with my Copics. I then added some grass with my Copics as well, and stamped my sentiment. The whole panel was layered with Fossil and Hot Fudge, and then brads, piercing, and a ribbon clip were added. I used some MME Lost&Found Madison Avenue paper along the bottom.

My border was the new Postage Stamp Border Die-namics. SUPER cute, huh!!!

***Update on Jonah!! He is doing world's better today, and Casie actually got to hold him and feed him for the first time. I swear, I cried like a baby when I found out!! Thanks SO MUCH for all the warm wishes, and thoughtful messages. I have sent a lot of them to Casie, and I know she and Jonah can feel your thoughts. Much love and THANKS go out to all of you for keeping them in your hearts and minds. I know he still has a long road, but like I said before, every day is a new day. <3*****

MFTWSC39 Spa Day


Hey everyone, and happy Wednesday!! Since it is Wednesday, it is time for another Wednesday Stamp Club challenge from My Favorite Things!!

For my sketch card, I kinda cheated a little and made the card a square, and I made my small panel...not so small. What can I say, I'm a rebel, lol. I used the Pure Innocence- Spa Day image on X-Press It Blending card, and then colored parts of it with my Copics. I then paper pieced her robe with some MME Six by Six A Happy Heart pad. I layered her with Black Licorice, but I also used Bubblegum card stock from MFT, and More Mustard from SU. My Black Collection ribbon and Charcoal twine are both from MFT, and I used a spiral clip from Creative Express. The First Place Award Ribbon Die-namic to cut out my sentiment, and although I covered it up, I used the Simply Scalloped Medium Die-namics for my black strip on the base of my card.


Well, that is it for me for now!! Be sure to check out Kim's blog for a full list of designers participating in today's sketch!!

For my card tonight, I started by stamping my girl on X-Press It Blending Card, and then colored her skin with my Copics. Her shirt was paper pieced with some MME Lost&Found 2 Rosy paper, which is what I used on the rest of the card. She was then cut out with Circle Nestabilities and layered with Spearmint, Tangy Orange, and Black Licorice. I used some Black Felt from MFT for my Rolled Gardenia Die-namic flower, which I put a large silver brad from Michael's through the center of. I then used the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics for my sentiment. My ribbon is from the MFT Black Collection, and my small brads are also from Michael's. I used the Little Open Scalloped Strip Die-namics from my scallops.



For the inside, I used more of the same supplies, and another sentiment from this set.
