I decided to add to my Christmas decorations and made a super cute little banner using the Mix & Match Banner dienamics and the By the Letters dienamics. This didn't take long at all! I chose two of the banner shapes and just alternated them. I punched little holes in each corner and threaded some silver cord (because I have like a gazillion yards of it!) through it. I also added little accents to some of the pieces with the Christmas Ornaments dienamics because MFT is cool like that and makes everything work together! ;) You can see them better on the close up pics. Oh, and I added a couple of pieces from the Fringed Perennial dienamics, too! How easy would it be to make one for every occasion?!!! You can add a banner to a gift bag to dress it up, add it to a present, makes one for your child's teacher to hang in her classroom - the possibilities are endless, I tell ya!!!

And incase you're wondering, the banner is hanging in my dining room. I think it looks perfect in there! Goodness, I'm so excited for the release party but also sad because that mean my guest designer stint is coming to an end... *sniff*... Be sure to come back for the Product Tour where everyone will have even MORE yumminess for you to drool over!

Hugs,

TS Monday - Snow time!

*** This is my 2nd post of the day ~ the MFT Teaser post is below***

Well, hello again! I'm back for the Totally Stamp

alicious blog challenge which is to use snow on your project. I had to ink up these cuties, Deacon and Ava HoHo. The "HOHO" is paper pieced and everything else was colored with copics. I added some liquid applique to the little snowflakes around them. I also used a Martha Stewart snowflake to the center of my loopy bloom dienamic. The sentiment is from the Deacon Elf set.

I loved the December SFYTT sketch, so had to try it out! Thanks for taking a peek and don't forget the AWESOME sale going on at Totally Stampalicious!!!

Hugs,

First up is the Heart Warmer PI. I just adore this little guy! Now, as cute as he is, doesn't mean he can't be up to "snow" good! HA! Don't ya just love that sentiment?! He does come with one little pile of snowballs, but of course, I had to make him a whole mound if he was going to be up to no good, er, snow, good. I broke up the sentiment and cut it out with the mini pennant dienamics whose exact name escapes me. He's up on pop dots and was paper pieced, obviously. The sketch is from Karen G's SSSC146. I also used the small scallop border die (slightly obsessed!) and the dizzy doily duo dienamics.

My second card features the Cause for Celebration PI. I had to use her because I'm a New Year's baby! She's colored with copics. For her dress, I was going for that fancy satiny look. The sketch is an older from from Deconstructed Jen's blog. I wanted the crown border dienamic to peek up over the top, so the actual card base was cut a little shorter so it's still a standard A2 card size. And because she's out celebrating at night, I thought the new Skyline border dienamic was fitting!

And a close up of the cutie!!!

Thanks for stopping by!

It's A la Mode day and I have the new Ski Bunny for you! Goodness, how sweet is she?! I love this red and bright pink color combo with pops of white. I paper pieced part of her hat and jacket, her pants and who wouldn't love a set of plaid skis?!?! lol! The rest of her and the background were colored with copics. I cut her out using the Clearly Sentiment dienamic (perfect size for these slim ladies!) and popped it up on pop dots. I used a craft knife to cut along the bottom part of the skis and her boots so it looks like she's standing in snow, which I made using the small scallop border dienamics (just got it in the mail yesterday, and oh my word, i love it already!). I pulled a Jody and cut up the sentiment so I could stamp each word separately on one of the Mix & Match Banner dienamics. I added lots of twine, faux stitching ('cause my sewing machine died, sniff!) and also cut out some Fringed Perennial flowers which all have button centers. The layout is mine... just knew I wanted to use a circle and everything else fell into place. The circles are layered on the largest of the dizzy doily duo dienamics.

Here's a close up of the large Fringed Perennial dienamic and the "snow" around her boot and skis. I used a glue pen around the entire main image and also on the "snow mounds" (which is the small scallop border dienamic cut out twice) to add some glitter.

Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Hugs,

Today we're featuring the All-Star dienamics and stamp set and the Always Time for Tea dienamics and stamp set! I went with the All-Star dienamics and stamp set because, well, I have boys and am usually in need of boy cards! I about flipped when I saw this set and matching dienamics!!! Sooo right up my alley! Here's a pic of the set with the dienamics:

And now for my trio of 4 x 4 cards I made using it:

Close up of the baseball card:

And the football card:

And the basketball card:

I went with the same layout and used a few elements on all three such as some corrugated paper, brads and stars. I used the new Mix and Match Banners dienamics and the new By the Letters dienamics! These are SOOO versatile, I know I'll be using them tons!!! The word "Star" was stamped out using the Banner Day Alphabet.

As always, thanks for stopping by and have a FABULOUS weekend!

Today I'm featuring this mont's Triple Scoop Set, Pearls of Wisdom. It's loaded with such wonderful sentiments! The dp is from the Simple Stories Baby Steps 6x6 paper pad. Yep, it's baby themed but I loved the soft color palette for this card. I stamped one sentiment onto the dp then cut it out using the Decorative Doily Oval dienamic. I left most of the fancy little cut out pieces in to kind of give it a different look, then ran some hemp through the edges. Again, I used a few pieces from the new Fringed Perennial dienamic for the three circular embellies. There are copic colored pearls in the centers. I braided some MFT honeydew twine (I don't have girls, so I have to do girly things like braiding whenever I can, hehe!)and added it to the embossed sahara panel which is edged with the medium scallop dienamics. For the inside, I used the negative of the medium scallop dienamic, stamped another awesome sentiment from the Pearls of Wisdom set and added more chocolate (colored with copics) pearls. And if you're wondering, this card measure 5 x 5.

I know we still have a few more days of teasers to go, but I wanted to say how sincerely grateful I am for each and every comment!!! Reading them just makes me SO happy!

Enjoy the rest of the teasers from the utterly amazing MFT team!

Hugs,

Today I've decided to use the Inspired by Flowers set #4. Yum, Yum, YUMMY! There are three different flowers and four different sentiments in this set. I opted to not color in the mum and stamped one of the sentiments over it instead. There's a tiny bling in the flower center, can you see it? I used one flower from the new dienamic, Fringed Perennial, for my ribbon/button/thread/bling embellie on the lower left corner and added extra bling to the opposite corner. Some piercing on front and the postage stamp border dienamic and more piercing inside top it all off.

Thanks for stopping by! I KNOW you're enjoying the teasers and what's awesome is we're only on day 2, WAHOOOO!!!! Lots more super-cool-all-star-tea-ific stuff to show you! *wink*

See y'all tomorrow!
