My Favorite Things - Missing You Every Single Day Interactive Card and Video!

Hello everyone!

I'm quickly popping in today to share a quick peek of a project that I created using the new Missing You Every Single Day Stamp Set, the Got Milk? Die-Namics, and the Love Speech Bubble Die-Namics, and I've paired them with the Peek-A-Boo Wheel Die-Namics!

I filmed a video of the step-by-step process that took to create this fun design! And you can find it over on the MFT YouTube Channel by clicking on the graphic below!

That'll do it for me today, my friends! I'll be back soon with more crafty stuff very soon! Until then, Happy New Year and please stay safe!

My Favorite Things - Color-Changing Caticorn and Process Video!

Hello friends!

I'm popping in quickly today to let you know that I filmed a process video showing you how I created this color-changing (think mood ring or hypercolor tee-shirt!) card featuring the Caticorn Stamp Set and the Peek-A-Boo Wheel Die-Namics! It was a really fun project to create, and if you'd like to learn how I made it, please click on the MFTv graphic below. I've listed and linked all of the MFT products that I used in the video description box and below, for your convenience.

Thanks for stopping by today! I'll be back tomorrow with the first sneak peek of the May Release! It seems like forever since MFT has released new product, so I hope you're as excited about that as I am! Have a great day, and stay safe and well!

My Favorite Things - July Release Countdown Day 2!

Hello again!

We are down to just two sleeps before the July Release Products will be available!  Are you getting excited?!!  Today's project features a few more super fun and versatile products that I think you all are going to love - the Magical Rainbow Die-Namics, the Rainbow Greetings Stamp Set, and the Cute Cloud Outlines Die-Namics!  Oh, and the Over the Rainbow 6 x 6 Paper Pad is new, too!

So, when I saw the new Magical Rainbow Die-Namics, I knew they'd work perfectly with the Peek-A-Boo Wheel Die-Namics!!  I die cut the wheel from Smooth White card stock, and ink blended it in an ombre rainbow pattern using Razzle Berry, Orange Zest, Lemon Drop, Limelight and Summer Splash Dye Ink.  I die cut two image panels using the A2 Rectangle STAX Set 2 Die-Namics.  I positioned solid opening die from the Magical Rainbow Die-Namics onto the first panel, and ran it through my die cutting machine.  I aligned the two image panels, and used the aperture to align the wheel.  I then adhered it to the second image panel using a brad.  I used the arch of the rainbow aperture to hide the brad.  I die cut the Cute Cloud Outlines Die-Namics from Smooth White card stock and one of the striped patterns from the Over the Rainbow 6 x 6 Paper Pack, and adhered them to the image panel using foam squares.  I stamped the sentiment from the Rainbow Greetings Stamp Set onto some Black Licorice card stock using Sweet Tooth Pigment Ink, and heat embossed it with white embossing powder.  I die cut the sentiment using the Essential Slanted Sentiment Strips Die-Namics.  I temporarily disassembled the wheel panel, aligned the two panels, and used a circle die from the Circle STAX Set 1 Die-Namics to cut a notch from the right edge.  This will allow easy access to the Peek-A-Boo Wheel so that you can turn it to reveal all the different colors of the rainbow!  I assembled everything with foam squares, and added some clear drops for embellishments.  I've listed and linked all of the MFT products that I used below (although the links for the July Release products won't be live until the release!)

Please click on through to the MFT Design Blog to be linked to the other outstanding projects that my teammates have created!  And while you're there, why not leave some love along the way for your chance to win a $75 Gift Voucher to the MFT Online Boutique! It's a random draw, but you can't win unless you comment!  All of the July Release Products will be available for purchase on Tuesday, July 9, 2019 at 10:00 AM EDT!

That's it for me today, friends!  We've got family in town from Texas, so we'll be having a little get together and dinner!  But I'll be back again tomorrow with another July Release project, so I sure hope you'll come by to check it out!  Have an awesome day!

My Favorite Things - July Release Countdown Day 4!

Hello again!

I hope you enjoyed the July Release Countdown Day 5 as much as I did! And we're back again today with more fun products to share with you!  Today's project features the "FREE with ANY purchase" stamp set - Fabulous At Any Age Stamp Set - and I think you're going to love it as much as I do because it's super versatile!  I paired it with the new Happy You Day Stamp Set (which will be featured later on in this release), which was perfect for the idea that I had!  Check it out!

Do you see what I did there?!!  I paired the Fabulous At Any Age Stamp Set (FREE with ANY purchase, while supplies last) with the new Happy You Day Stamp Set, and the Peek-A-Boo Wheel Die-Namics!!  I have a bunch of friends turning 60 this year, so I thought it'd be fun to create a card that you could change the birth year for a super versatile card to have in your birthday stash!  I stamped 40, 50, 60 and 70 in the "balloon window", and I ink-blended the Peek-A-Boo Wheel so that the balloon changes color when you turn the wheel!  Fun, right?!!  I've listed and linked all of the MFT Products that I used below (the links to the July products will not be live until the release on Tuesday, July 9, 2019 at 10:00 AM EDT).

That's it for me today!  I've been trapped in my craft room for the last couple of days, so I plan to escape and spend the day with my grandkids!  It's movie day, and I can't wait!  It's also my youngest daughter's birthday!  She's out of town, so we'll be celebrating her from afar!  Happy Birthday, Ames!  Thanks so much for spending part of your day here with me!  I'll be back again tomorrow with another July Countdown Project, so I hope you'll drop by again real soon!

My Favorite Things–February 2019 Release Countdown Day 1!

Hello, sweet friends!!

I’m back once again with another February 2019 Release Countdown Project! And I have to say, that I’m pretty stinkin’ happy about this one!  It features the new Spectacular Birthday Stamp Set and coordinating dies.  When I saw that juggling clown cat in the set, I knew I had to make those juggling balls move!  So, I figured out a way to do that with the Peek-A-Boo Wheel Die-Namics!!  Check it out!

And here’s a quick video of the juggling balls in action:

I was pretty stinkin’ proud of myself for figuring this one out.  I used two nesting Circle STAX dies to do a partial die cut on the image panel.  I snipped off the two ends of the channel that I created with my scissors.  And then I used enamel dots for the balls, although the Spectacular Birthday Stamp Set has a series of balls that you can stamp and die cut, too!  I hope to have a full video of my process on this card later on this month!  Until then, I’ve listed and linked all of the products that I used below.


Please click on through to the MFT Design Blog to be linked to the spectacular projects that my teammates have created!  While you’re there, be sure and leave some love along the way for your chance to win a $75 Gift Voucher to the MFT Online Boutique.  There’s one random winner per Release Countdown Day!  All of the February Release Products will be available for purchase on Tuesday, February 5, 2019 at 10 AM EST!


That’s it for me today!  I’m still under a huge stack of laundry, as we’re getting ready to head out of town for a couple of days!  But I’ll be back tomorrow with another project for this month’s release, so I hope you’ll come again to check it out!  Thanks so much for stopping by – have an awesome day!

My Favorite Things: Peek-A-Boo Wheel Card & Video

Hello friends!

To my US friends, I hope you and yours enjoyed a happy and blessed Thanksgiving holiday.  We had an awesome visit with our oldest daughter and her family, so my heart is very full today.  I wanted to pop in quickly to let you know that I created another Peek-A-Boo Wheel card, and also filmed a process video to show you how I made it. I promise, it’s so much easier than it looks!!

I was so excited to have a chance to use the new Beary Best Friends Stamp Set, and I combined it with some images from the Secret Santa Stamp Set.  The two combined made for a perfect fit with the Peek-A-Boo Wheel Die-Namics.  You can find the details and video showing exactly how I created this project over at the MFT You Tube Channel by clicking HERE.  I’ve listed and linked all of the products that I used below.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I’ll be out and about with my bestie today – doing my best to stay as far away from the Black Friday shoppers as I possibly can!  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
