My Favorite Things Stamps December Guest Designer

I am going for it. I'm applying to be the December Guest Designer at My Favorite Things Stamps! The challenge is to Bling It On and I think I did just that with my card using glitter, glimmer mist, faux pearls, Stickles, and a little bit of everything else. I'm loving their adorable line of Pure Innocence stamps. Their Inspired By line has more of an elegant and classic look to them and I love them too. There's also many other lines of stamps at My Favorite Things Stamps that will appeal to everybody. My Favorite Things Stamps is a full service online store with a boutique in Florida to browse around as well. I had the pleasure of meeting Kim van der Sanden, the owner of My Favorite Things Stamps at the 2010 Summer CHA and pick up some, well a lot, of fun toys, at their store. Every month, MFT has a fabulous release of at least 10 stamp sets and even more of their Die-Namics that just rocked the industry when it comes to die-cuts. Many of their stamp sets are packaged with the matching Die-Namics making it so easy for you to create wonderful paper crafts and other items. You must check out their awesome brand new, state-of-the-art website. I love it and it's so easy to navigate around. What's really exciting to me is the My Favorite Stamps Blog where their fabulous design team (listed on the right sidebar of the blog) shares their work with you and, holds blog hops, and during the MFT Teaser pre-release, you're showed the entire stamp set and Die-namics for the upcoming release so you don't have to wait! November's MFT Teaser is going on right now and check it out! I'm all about the Vintage Cameo and Vintage Christmas with matching Die-Namics. MFT Stamps is also a Splitcoast Stampers Member Company. They offer blog hops, scrapbook challenges, the Wednesday Stamp Club, which is a weekly sketch challenge, and a customer MFT Favorite Finds that they feature weekly on the blog and one of your cards could be showcased! I've had one of mine chosen before here and it was great to be recognized like that. It's all at My Favorite Things! You're going to LOVE it! So please be sure to join us for all of the fun going on at My Favorite Things Stamps! We'll definitely keep you busy and inspired with our wonderful products during the Pre-Release Prep Rally! I can't wait for the November release and everything that you're seeing previewed during our Teasers is available for purchase on Tuesday, November 1 at 10 p.m. EST, after a big party at our SCS Forum. Thirteen brand new sets and 9 brand new Die-Namics will be in your cart before you know it! As MFT does listen to their customers, you can purchase the stamp set with or without the coordinating Die-Namics; now how's that for customer service?! My Favorite Things Stamps has so much to offer you as a customer and so much fun that it's honestly too much to write about here so head on over to the store or blog to browse around. I promise you that you're going to love it all! Did I mention the free stamp set that you get with every $60 spent in the store with the Triple Scoop Promotion (a new stamp set is available every month) and A Cherry on the Top Reward that allows you $15 off of your entire purchase over $150? Check it out!

Now onto my card that I made as my entry. I used the Pure Innocence With All My Heart (don't you just love all of the sentiments that come with one image making it a totally all-around versatile stamp set for any occasion), with two Die-Namics to complete my card using the Bracket Tab and Mini Rolled Rose with their Strawberry Ice Cream felt!

I hope that you enjoy this card and are inspired by it. I took a picture of everything, down to how I decorated the outside of my envelope. Of course, the inside of my envelope is lined and I used the pink and white striped designer paper at the bottom of my card. This card was very fun to make and it showed me that you can take a cute image and turn it into a classy card! Thank you so much for stopping by to visit me today and may God bless you.
