Snow Globe Greetings Card Kit Release!

Hello, and welcome back! Today is the official release of the new Snow Globe Greetings Card Kit from My Favorite Things. I love this kit so much and look forward to creating even more holiday cards with it.

For today's card, I decided to just use the Believe die (the Free with $60 that releases with the card kit), and I kept the design pretty simple.

I die cut the word believe with Jellybean Green card stock and layered it over a stamped sentiment strip that I die cut from Milk Chocolate card stock. The sentiment is from the Bitty Holiday Wishes stamp set.

I also stamped a Santa hat from the Tis the Season stamp set, fussy cut it with my scissors, and then I adhered it on top of the B so it would look like it's hanging off the word. I love the message this card sends with just the sentiment and a Santa hat. :)

Thanks so much for joining me for the card kit release!

Merry Kissmas | Snow Globe Greetings Card Kit

I'm back today with another card featuring the new Snow Greetings Card Kit from My Favorite Things. I love using Kraft card stock on holiday cards because I love the look of whie against it, making it perfect to highlight snow. :)

For my card today I used the Mistletoe Kisses Die-namics along with the Tall Snowglobe Die-namics to create a shaker snow globe full of wintery snow.

To create the snowy background I first added some white pigment ink to a Kraft card stock panel and then I added the die cut mistletoe on top. I then added a bunch of white dots to the background with a white gel pen to make it look like it was snowing both inside and outside the globe.

I added some Diamond Dust to the inside of the globe and sealed it in to add even more snow because I love all the snow LOL! I stamped the sentiment onto a die-cut base and added it to the card with foam adhesive for some added dimension.

You can see how I created this card from start to finish in today's episode of MFTv.

See you tomorrow for the release party!

Hello, and welcome back! Today we are starting the countdown to the newest card kit from My Favorite Things called Snow Globe Greetings.

This kit is so perfect for the holidays and includes a beautiful assortment of products that make holiday card making easy and fun!

MFT January Card Kit Release

Hello and welcome back. The new Heart Art Card Kit and the Joyful Heart Bears stamp set (and coordinating dies) are now available at My Favorite Things! I love all of the new products and had so much fun creating with them!

For my card today, I combined the card kit with the new Stacey Yacula stamp set to create a cute love-filled scene complete with a shaker balloon.

To create the card I first stamped the bear image onto a white card stock panel but I made sure not to ink up the top part of the balloon. I then used the new Mini Heart Shaker Window & Frame die to die cut an opening at the top of the balloon. I added a shaker pouch (cut from the Heart Trio Shaker Pouches) and backed it with Wild Wisteria card stock that I had stamped with one of the hearts from the new Heart Art stamp set.

I added in some sequins to make it a shaker and then I added the panel to a Blu Raspberry card base. I completed the card by adding grass to the bottom, a pink sentiment strip and a collection of clouds that I stamped from the Cutieasaurus stamp set.

MFT January Card Kit Countdown - Day 1

Hello and welcome back! Today is the second day of the countdown to the new My Favorite Things January card kit called Heart Art. This new kit will be available on January 22nd at 10am EST.

For today's card, I created a rainbow of stamped candy hearts - as soon as I saw the Heart Art stamp set in the kit, I really wanted to do some tone-on-tone stamping because I immediately thought of the candy conversational hearts when I saw it.

For this card, I used a rainbow selection of card stock colours and then pulled out the coordinating inks so I could stamp all of the hearts with the matching colour. There are 6 different heart stamps in the stamp set, so I was able to include all 6 of them on my card.

I adhered them all onto a white card stock panel and added that to a Razzle Berry card base. I completed the card with a stamped sentiment from the Sweet Celebrations stamp set onto a black card stock sentiment strip.

In addition to the rainbow version, I also made one that includes the colours that come in this month's kit. You can see the video sharing how I created it in today's MFTv episode.

MFT January Card Kit Countdown | Day 2

Hello and welcome back! Today is the first day of the countdown to the new My Favorite Things January card kit called Heart Art. You guys! This kit is so so fun to create with! There are so many great products to mix and match and it's perfect for Valentine's Day. This new kit will be available on January 22nd at 10am EST.

For today's card, I used a bunch of new products along with the Sweet Stack paper pad, to create a love-themed card perfect for Valentine's Day.

I die cut the word love using the Double the Love dies, from multiple colours of card stock included in the kit and then I stamped one of the hearts from Heart Art to replace the 'o.' I die cut a panel of white card stock with the Scallop Basic Edges dies, and then I layered it onto a piece of striped paper from the Sweet Stack pad.

I stamped a sentiment from the Because You stamp set onto black card stock with versamark ink and heat embossed it with white embossing powder before die cutting it with a sentiment strip. I added the finished panel to a red card panel and then added it to a Wild Wisteria card base.

MFT December Card Kit Countdown | Day 2

Hello and welcome back! Today is the first day of the countdown to the new My Favorite Things December card kit called Good Time to Wine. I love the fun theme of this month's kit and can't wait to create even more with it. This new kit will be available on December 18th at 10am EST.

I created a trio of clean & simple cards using the kit and decided to just use the wine glass die without the shaker. I love that you can go more simple or go all out with different shaker elements.

To create my cards, I used card stock and the gold sparkle paper from the kit, and I also added in some vellum as well. I love the soft look of the vellum wine glass behind the gold sparkle sentiment.

I added clear sequins to each of the finished cards for added dimension and detail and also added glitter Stickles to the centers of each one for a little more sparkle and shine.

Stay tuned to the MFT YouTube channel tomorrow for a video sharing how I created this card set. :)

My Favorite Things September Card Kit Release

Hello and welcome to the My Favorite Things September card kit release party! The awesome new Filled with Joy card kit is available now at MFT Stamps! I love all of the fun elements in this month's kit and had so much fun creating with it!

For my card today I decided to create an ornament for the 'o' in the joy word but rather than use the actual ornament die, I decided to keep the 'o' in place and turn that into an ornament.

I die cut the word joy from white card stock and then used my Copic markers to colour them in. I created an ombre effect on them by keeping the bottoms darker and lightening them up towards the top and then I adhered them to my white card stock panel.

I added the ornament topper, cut from Silver Sparkle card stock to the top of the 'o' and added the ornament string as well.

To finish the card I stamped the rest of the sentiment onto a piece of black card stock, heat embossed with white embossing powder and then I added it to the panel under the die cut word.

Make sure to head over to the MFT blog for more ideas using the Filled with Joy card kit! Thanks so much for joining me for the release party! :)

MFT September Card Kit Countdown | Day 1

Hello and welcome back! Today is the second day of the countdown to the new My Favorite Things September card kit called Filled with Joy. I love holiday products and was so excited to start my holiday cardmaking with this kit! This new kit will be available on September 25th at 10am EDT.

For my cards today I wanted to create a shaker element in the center of the word Joy using the Circle Trio Shaker pouches that are included in the kit. To create a single shaker all you need to do is trim the circle trio apart into separate pieces - so you actually get enough pouches to create 30 shaker elements.

I wanted to create a Christmas Tree shape with my die cuts and stamping, so I turned the 'o' in joy into an ornament and layered the other elements around it. I'm sharing this card in today's MFTv video so head over to our YouTube channel (link in sidebar) if you want to check that out.

 

For my second card, I created a shaker element as well, but I completed changed up the design and stamped the Joy sentiment on the top and bottom of my panel and then added the die cut Joy word to the center.

I used the snowman head to cut a circle opening and added the shaker pouch inside and filled it with a fun winter mix of sequins. I wanted to add an additional sentiment, so I stamped it onto a black card stock strip, and then I adhered over the joy word at the top.

I wanted to keep the card somewhat monochromatic, so I added the finished panel to a Sno Cone card base to match one of my ink colours.

Hello and welcome back! Today is the first day of the countdown to the new My Favorite Things September card kit called Filled with Joy. I love holiday products and was so excited to start my holiday cardmaking with this kit! This new kit will be available on September 25th at 10am EDT.

For my first card, I really wanted to use the snowman included in the Filled with Joy dies as well as the gorgeous black velvet paper.

I first created the blue background by adding some Prima watercolors to a watercolor panel and then I let it dry. While it was drying, I diecut the word joy twice from white card stock and coloured in the j and y with both red and green inks. I then layered them onto the panel when it was dry and offset them to create a fun shadow.

I cut out all of the snowman pieces from white card stock, and I coloured in the accessories with my Copic markers.

Once I had everything coloured, I assembled the snowman and added some foam adhesive under his hat for a bit of dimension. To complete the card, I added some clear sequins with clear Stickles added to the center.

Sending Birthday Wishes Card Kit Release!

Hello and welcome back! The newest MFT card kit, Sending Birthday Wishes, is now available in the MFT online store here. This month's kit is all about birthdays, celebrations and little notes. ;)

For my card tonight I used the Mini Mail Die-namics from the card kit and cut out a grouping of 4 vellum envelopes to adhere to my card front. I love that the vellum is translucent and allows you to see through it.

For three of the envelopes, I folded them up, added a little notecard cut from various patterned papers in the kit, and then I sealed them closed with a little liquid glue. I then diecut a heart from card stock in the same colour palette as the patterned paper and adhered that on the envelope flap.

For the 4th envelope, I used the pink polka dot patterned paper and diecut a liner to add inside. I then diecut a white notecard, stamped on it and put in into the envelope. I left this envelope unsealed so the liner was visible and the message on the inside would show through. 

Don't forget that this months kit is available now until it sells out. You can see more ideas using this months kit from the design team on the MFT blog.

My Favorite Things June Card Kit Countdown - Day 1

Hello and welcome to day 1 of the countdown to the newest MFT card kit, Sending Birthday Wishes. I love the kit this month and all the fun things you can do with it. While it's geared toward birthday cards, the little envelope die can by used for a variety of occasions.

For my card today, I used the kit contents to create a pretty simple card design that keeps the focus on the little envelope that I created.

I diecut the envelope from Limelight cardstock and cut a liner for the inside from one of the rainbow striped paper that comes in the paper pad. I added a little note to the inside cut from white card stock and added a little green heart to it to match the envelope.

I finished the card by adding some additional green hearts above and below the envelope and I stamped the sentiment under the envelope with Black Licorice Dye ink. I love the bold sentiment and really wanted it to stand out on the card.

This kit will officially be available at MFT Stamps at 9pm EST tonight. I'll see you then for the release with another card to share! :)
