Are You Ready? 2 More Days Until the October Release!


Hello, and welcome! We have 2 more days until the MFT October release is available, and we have more great products to share! For the next five days, we'll be sharing cards and projects featuring all of the new products coming out on October 8 at 10am EDT.

For my card today, I used the new Joyful Wreath Die-namics and the Captions Numbers (this month's Free with $60) to create a square card design perfect for celebrating New Year's!


I die cut the Joyful Wreath from white card stock, and then I coloured it in with Copic markers. I love adding marker detail to a white die cut, so it looks more dimensional and realistic. Once I had it coloured, I adhered to a white card stock panel and layered a stamped sentiment banner with it that was stamped with the Bitty Holiday Wishes stamp set. I die cut 2020 from gold glitter card stock and adhered it directly under the banner to complete the design.

Thanks so much for joining me today. Make sure to head over to the MFT Blog for a closer look at the new products and more ideas using them.

See you tomorrow for more countdown fun!

3 More Days Until the October Release!


Hello, and welcome! We have 3 more days until the MFT October release is available and we have more great products to share! For the next five days, we'll be sharing cards and projects featuring all of the new products coming out on October 8 at 10am EDT.

For my card today, I used the Elfin' Around Die-namics and Merry Elfin' Christmas stamp set to create a fun design with the large sentiment and elf hat. I stamped the Christmas background onto both pieces of the elf hat and then I adhered it together.



I stamped the large sentiment with black ink and layered the elf hat on top to make it look like it was resting on the words. I layered the panel onto a piece of Blu Raspberry card stock and then added it to a Wild Cherry card base. I finished the design with a button added to the elf hat. :)

4 More Days Until the October Release is Here!


Hello and welcome to day 4 of the My Favorite Things October Release Countdown. For the next five days, we'll be sharing cards and projects featuring all of the new products coming out on October 8 at 10am EDT.

For my card today, I used the new Peace on Earth Die-namics and Stamp Set to create a simple design that features the gorgeous dove as the focal image.


I created an inked background with Peacock Feathers and Shaded Lilac Distress ink and then I added glittery snow detail with the new Snowfall - Vertical stencil. I stamped the sentiment directly on the background with black ink and then added the dove over the snow.

It's Time for the MFT October Release Countdown!


Hello and welcome to the first day of the My Favorite Things October Release Countdown. For the next five days, we'll be sharing cards and projects featuring all of the new products coming out on October 8 at 10am EDT.

For my card today I used the new Christmas sELFies stamp set along with the Polaroid Shaker Frame to create a fun and playful holiday card.

I stamped out the adorable elf image and coloured him in with Copic markers. I then framed him with the Polaroid Frame and added a darker grey one in behind to really make it stand out against the background. I I die cut the hello sentiment from card stock using the new Captions Alphabet dies and also die cut coordinating strips to add to the background using the Skinny Stripes - Verical die.
I added a stamped sentiment banner to complete the greeting and added the finished panel to a Limelight card base.

More Inspiration from the MFT Vault!


Hello and welcome back! Today I have another card to share featuring some of the new products that just came out of the MFT Vault! I am loving seeing what older products will make a return each month - so exciting!

For my card today I sed the Game Controller Die-namics along with the Level Up stamp set to create a card perfect for the gamer in your life.

I die cut the controller from Grout Gray card stock and then I die cut all the buttons from white so I could customize the colours with my Copic markers. I glued them all on once they were coloured and then I covered them all with clear glaze to make them look shiny and dimensional.

I used Distress Inks and created a striped design on the card base with colours similar to the ones I used on the controller. I adhered the controller with foam adhesive, added a cord at the top and stamped the sentiment in black ink directly underneath.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. You can see even more inspiration using the new Vault products on the MFT blog.

MFT September Vault Release


Hello, and welcome back! Today we're releasing a handful of products straight from the MFT Vault - I love the products making a return and couldn't wait to use them on my cards!

For my card today I used the Miss You a Latte stamp set along with the Gift Card Shaker Window to create a Starbuck's inspired card perfect to send to a coffee-loving friend. :)

I coloured my image with Copic markers and added green and white details to the cups to make them look like Starbuck's cup. I had the perfect gift card to use with the design, so I added that using the Gift Card Shaker Pouch, with a few sequins added in for a little sparkle and shine.

I stamped a sentiment from the Cup of Love stamp set into Gravel Gray card stock and die cut it using the Skinny Strips Die-namics. I adhered the sentiment strip and stamped image to the gift card pouch and finished the design with some additional sequins.

Make sure to head to the MFT Blog for a look at all of the Vault products releasing this month.

MFT WSC 454


Hello and welcome back! Today I have a card to share for the latest MFT sketch challenge.

For my card today I used the new Café All Day Die-namics and paired it with the cute bear image from the Sweater Weather in the Woods stamp set to create a coffee-themed card.


I used the coordinating shaker pouches and created a shaker card and added a coffee sleeve over top with a stamped sentiment from the Perk Up stamp set. I love how perfectly it fits in that space. I also stamped the Knitted Sweater background at the bottom of the card instead of creating the vertical stripes on the sketch design.


I stamped out the bear image with Extreme Black ink and coloured him in with Copic markers. I am really loving these shades of green lately, which are YG61, G24 and G85. Once I had him all coloured, I die cut him and adhered him to the front of the card with foam adhesive. 

Thanks so much for joining me for this week's sketch challenge. Make sure to check it out on the MFT blog and enter your card for a chance to win!
