Hey everyone, and happy Wednesday!! That means it is time for another Wednesday Stamp Club challenge from My Favorite Things! It's MY favorite sketch challenge!

For my card today, I used the GORGEOUS new set, Inspired by the Front Porch-Spring set. I stamped my image on X-Press It blending card, along with my sentiment, and then colored it with Copics. It was then layered with Steel Grey cardstock. I used a Pink Lemonade Flourish cut out with the Sentimental Flourish Die-namics. My paper is from the MME Ruby paper pad, and I also used Wild Cherry cardstock, along with my Steel Grey and Pink Lemonade cardstock. The bow I used was created with the Beautiful Bow Die-namics, and I also embellished with Michael's brads.

For the inside, I used the same supplies.

Here are the Die-namics I have used:

He too, was colored with Copics on X-Press It blending card. I then layered it with Banana Split(Bazzil) and Berrylicious(MFT). My paper is from the Lilybee Designs Buttercup paper pad, and  I added Sweet Tooth Grosgrain, a spiral clip, and Michael's brads.

March New Product Tour-My Favorite Things :)

That's right everyone, we have made it through teasers, and now, all the new sets are available in the My Favorite Things Store!!!! Before you go shop, be sure to hop around to all the designers and leave them some love! You never know who has the candy!!

This month, I am showing off the new Big Birthday Numbers set, which will sell for 17.95. It was illustrated by the same artist that does our super cute a la modes line!! I did do two cards today, mostly to show off how versatile they are...you can use them as a stand alone image, or with a character of your chosing:)

For my first card, I decided to pair my Big Birthday Numbers set with the new Doodle Garden Party Time set. My paper is from the MME Notable paper pad, and I paired it with Tangy Orange, Blu Raspberry, and X-Press It Blending card. For my image, I colored her on X-Press It blending card with my Copics, and then paper pieced her dress. My numbers were also paper pieced, and then cut out. I used the Blueprints 1 Die-namics for my  layout, which involved more of the Notable paper, a Sweet Tooth button with hemp through it, and some Sweet Tooth ribbon. In the corners, I used some Michael's brads.

For the inside, I used a sentiment from the Big Birthday Numbers set, a scrap from cutting off the scalloped piece from the Blueprints 1 Die-namics, and some more of the Notable paper.

For my second card, I decided to use the a la modes Big Birthday Numbers  set all by itself. I used the Blueprints 1 Die-namics to layout my card. My paper is from the MME Oliver collection(Lost & Found 2), which I paired with Banana Split(Bazzil), Berrylicious, Steel Grey, and X-Press It Blending card. My numbers were cut out from the Oliver paper. I used some Michael's brads, Sweet Tooth grosgrain, and I stamped my sentiment on one of the Blueprints 1 Die-namics tags. 

For the inside, I used more of the paper, and another sentiment from the a la modes Big Birthday Numbers set. 

And if I haven't mentioned before---I love the new Blueprints 1 Die-namics,LOL!! I used TWO of the sketches from the downloadable PDF offered along with this FABULOUS Die-namics. It will sell for $33.95

Well, that is it for me for now! Thanks for stopping by, and have fun hopping around to all my teammates blogs! Head on over to the MFT Blog for the official list!

For my card tonight, I wanted to use some of the Die-namics I hadn't used yet, but I also wanted to show you how awesome these Die-namics can be pretty much on their own. I decided to make something CAS, and used an X-Press It blending card base. I used the MME Notable paper pad along with my Jumbo Kite Die-namics, and the new Grassy Edges Die-namics. My kite has a Bubblegum base to it and I attached the bows from the Jumbo Kite Die-namics on my hemp cord. To finish, I added some pink pearls from Michael's. My sentiment is from the new Poppies sets being released.

For the inside, I used more of the MME Memorable paper bow cut outs from the Jumbo Kite Die-namics, and a sentiment from the Poppies set.

Again, NOT shocking, but I have used the new Blueprints 1 Die-namics for my card....they really DO make stamping and card making SO easy!! I used the new Feeling Sassy set, which I did a combination of Copic coloring and paper piecing. My paper is from the Lilybee Designs Handmade paper pad, and I paired it with MFT's Wild Cherry, Gumdrop Green, X-Press it blending card, and Bazzil's Banana Split. I used Hemp Cord through my Sweet Tooth button, and I did quite a bit of paper piercing. My embellishments include Michael's brads, and Wild Cherry Grosgrain.

For the inside, I used more of the same supplies.

And if I haven't mentioned before---I love the new Blueprints 1 Die-namics, LOL!!
