MFT Monday

Hope you've all had a great weekend.  It has been raining in Boston for days. How Dreary!  At least I've had new stamps to keep me company!

Today starts the DT Previews for this weeks My Favorite Things launch.  Right off the bat, I couldn't wait to play with "A Scarf for Three" illustrated by Stephanie Fizer. I just adore her style.  

This sweet trio was colored with my copic markers then I added liquid applique to the ear muffs, pom pom and hat trim for some fluff. 

I'm not a giant fan of snow in general, but snowmen.... that's a different story!

Then there are the  "Peppermint Cats" (also illustrated by Stephanie....)  Oh goodness were they so fun to color with my Prismacolor Pencils.  

In real life, I'm a dog person, not a cat person, but in stamp life...  they're adorable!  If my dad weren't terribly allergic, I'd probably allow my kids to get one as they're both obsessed.  

After I finished up with my card, I had so much fun coloring them for my card, that I had to give Jody's Boxy Bag a try.  

By the way....be sure to hop over to Jody's blog for details as to how to make your own boxy bag, while you're there, enter her blog candy contest too!  She's got a really fun giveaway including a fun new product from MFT!!

One last MFT Preview for you today using Annie LaPoint's "Chives" I think I used my last (gasp!) piece of Kraft cardstock for this. Going to have to add that to the list because if you haven't noticed, I use it just about all the time.  

The designer paper is from a fun new paper pack from American Crafts.  Lucky me, I found it at my  local AC Moore when I just happened to have a nice hefty coupon, so it was super inexpensive!  Dug into my secret stash of Soft Sky cardstock (now retired from Stampin Up) for my matting.  

My Favorite Things (www.mftstamps.com) is having a New Release Cocktail Party on Wednesday, October 1 from 9-11 p.m. Eastern time. This month there are SIX new sets being released, plus a new storage system for your MFT stamps that you are gonna love!
