September New Product Tour

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!!


For my card tonight, I decided to use the Clearly Sentimental About Grandparents set. I love how you can create such elegant, or simple cards using the fabulous sentiments in this set.




I started by stamping my sentiment on Sweet Tooth cardstock, and  then cut it out using the Oval Stax Die-namics. I then layered my sentiment with an oval cut out of Steel Grey using the Oval Decorative Doily Die-namics. My paper is from the Carolina Breeze paper pad designed by Theresa Collins. I paired it with Steel Grey, Black Licorice, Sweet Tooth, and Banana Split(Bazzill) cardstock. My border was cut out with the Faux Crochet Border Die-namics, and I embellished with the Large Fancy Flourish Die-namics, the Flower Medley Die-namics, Steel Grey Buttons, Charcoal Twine, and Michael's brads.


For the inside, I used more of the swirls, and one sentiment from this set.

Here are the Die-namics I have used:









The Cherry on Top is earned when you spend $150 before shipping and tax, earning you $15 off your order. Once that amount is hit, the coupon code will pop up on your screen, which you can write down and then apply to your order in your shopping cart. If you remove things from your cart, making it fall below $150, the coupon code will be removed automatically.

Also, remember that SOMEONE out there is giving out blog candy, and the BEST way to win, is to comment on ALL the designers blogs!! Good luck!!

Now, off to Kim's Blog for a full list of designer's participating!! Happy Stamping!!

I found an old Basic Grey paper pad called Granola, and instantly the animal print for her dress jumped out at me...it's so perfect!! I paper pieced it, and then drew the grass in with my Copics. The rest of her was colored with Copics, and then  layered with Bordering Blue(SU), Hot Fudge, and Fossil card stock. I used the new Harlequin Die-namics to cut my diamond border out of several different pieces of paper from the Granola pad. To embellish my card, I used Kraft Grosgrain, Hemp Cord, Michael's brads, and a Creative Express spiral clip. Her sentiment was attached with the Sentiment Strips Die-namics.



For the inside, I used another sentiment from this set. I stamped it on a piece of paper from the Granola pad...cause it made me THINK of stone, so I kinda thought it was perfect!

Here are the Die-namics I have used:
