My Favorite Things Stamps...WSC # 145...Hello, My Pretty & a Little Blog Candy!

Hey Stampin' friends!  I made some time this week to get crafty...my crafty mojo has magically disappeared but this week's fabulous MFTWSC145 sketch was the perfect boost I needed to get inky and make a Halloween card with my MFT Stamps and Die-namics. I have a little blog candy giveaway going on too...all the details are at the bottom of the post. Add your name to the Inklikz Link-Up if you want to enter!

 

Here's the great sketch that they have this week!  

I made my card 6x6 from Kraft cardstock and pulled out these gorgeous Authentique Thrilling 6x6 papers...LOVE them. I decided to ink up one of my all time fave Pure Innocence girls...PI Little Witch! I matted with MFT Replenishments Heavyweight Card Stock in Tangy Orange, Orange Fizz, Black Licorice, Steel Grey and Primitive Cream.

I ordered a few things from the October release on Tuesday and I got my package today...LOVE MFT's super fast shipping. So I used the star Die-namics from the NEW Blueprints 8 and a larger star from Blueprints 4. I also used the LLD Insert It - 3x4 Notepad Die-namics.

I coloured the PI Little Witch with my Copics and paper pieced her witch costume, then cut the image with the fabulous Pierced Rectangle STAX Die-namics. I put the cut image back in the rectangle Die-namics and inked with Tea Dye and Pumice Stone Distrss ink and and grounded the image by adding in some fall grass with my Prismacolor Pencils. 

I stamped a sentiment from the MFT Pure Innocence Little Witch Stamp set on Primitive Cream Heavyweight Card Stock with MFT Steel Grey Premium Dye Ink.  I embellished with a few orange gems and tied some hemp cord through the small "button star" cut with the Die-namics from the NEW Blueprints 8.

Here is the inside...I stamped a shadow image of the PI Little Witch in Tangy Orange Premium Dye Ink and I used the LLD Insert It - 3x4 Notebook Paper Die-namics, the Layered Treat Tag Die-namics and the stars from the NEW Blueprints 8 and Blueprints 4. I stamped the sentiment with Steel Grey Premium Dye Ink. 

So, have you ever bought a die or stamp that you apparently already had in your stash?! Well it seems I did :)...Oopps! I discovered that I already had the LLD Insert It - 3x4 Notebook Paper Die-namics when making this card and I just ordered another one. So, I thought it was the perfect time to give a little blog candy away to my crafty friends and blog followers...you don't have to be a follower of my blog but if you do want to follow me that would greatly appreciated!

Would you like a chance to be entered into the random draw to win the LLD Insert It - 3x4 Notebook Paper Die-namics (and a few other crafty goodies that I will include but didn't get a chance to photograph)?

My Favorite Things Stamps...WSC # 142...I'm Thankful For...YOU

Hello stampin' friends! I was able to eke out a little time to do some stamping yesterday and I was SO thankful for the fabulous sketch that they have over at My Favorite Things Stamps to help me get started! I used the great MFTWSC142 sketch for this card and inked up the super cute NEW Pure Innocence It's a Sign Stamp set.

Here is the great sketch that I used for my card...love the Peek-a-Boo Dots!

I made my card 6X6 from Kraft cardstock and used MFT Replenishments Heavyweight Card Stock in Olive, Night Shift Blue, and Sno Cone. I used Authentique - Loyal 6X6 paper pad...such pretty colours in this paper pad. I used several MFT Die-namics on this card too... my Pierced Circle STAX and Circle STAX Die-namics, the Peek-a-Boo Dots Die-namics, the Solid Bracket Border Die-namics and the Sentiments Strip 2 Die-namics. To embellish, I wrapped some Hemp cord around the card and added a Factory Green Button and added a little light blue bling here in there in the Peek-a-Boo Dots Die-namics panel.

I coloured up this sweet Pure Innocence girl, It's a Sign, with my Copics and paper pieced her out-fit and the sign too...I used a little scrap of black pattern paper from another Authentique paper pad in my stash to make a little chalkboard sign. I then stamped one of the many cute sentiments from the PI It's a Sign set, with MFT Sweet Tooth Pigment Ink pad. I cut the PI It's a Sign girl out and popped her up on the Pierced Circle panel. I used the Sentiment strips Die-namics, cut from MFT Primitive White Heavyweight Card Stock and stamped one of the other sentiments from the PI It's a Sign stamp set with Steel Grey Premium Dye Ink.

Here is the inside...I stamped a shadow image of PI It's a Sign girl on MFT Primitive White Heavyweight Card Stock and used another sentiment from the PI It's a Sign Stamp set. I stamped the sentiment in the sign with MFT Premium Dye Ink in Brick Red and Olive. I made a sentiment panel with the Pierced Circle STAX, Layered Label and the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics. I stamped a sentiment from the NEW Pure Innocence Cornucopia on Primitive White Heavyweight Card Stock.

Well, I'm SO thankful YOU could stop by and have a wee peek at the card that I made with the MFTWSC142 sketch featuring the super sweet MFT PI It's a Sign Stamp set and Peek-a-Boo Dots Die-namics.

My Favorite Things Stamps, Catered Crop Swap - Sentiment-al & DS117...You ARE a Natural!

Hello stampin' friends! I joined the fun challenge over at the Catered Crop Recipe Swap...Map it and was one of the lucky winners (along with the uber talented Tenia) and I get to be a guest DT for this week's Catered Crop Recipe Swap...Sentiment-al...just add a sentiment to your card, text or make the words the focal. I also used the wonderful sketch that Jen has this week over at the Deconstructed Sketch and my new My Favorite Things stamps and Die-namics, from the September release, arrived today, so I had to ink up this sweetie...the NEW Doodle Garden - Happy Harvest. 

Here is the fabulous sketch that I used!!!

I made my card 6x6 from Kraft Card Stock and used the pretty Authentiqe Natural 12X12 papers that I scored at Winners the other day. I matted with MFT Replenishments Heavyweight Card Stock in Steel Grey, Blu Raspberry and Fuse Green.  I used Blueprints 5 and Blueprints 6 and Circle STAX 1. I inked up the adorable NEW Doodle Garden - Happy Harvest and coloured her with my Copics...probably one of my fave Doodle Garden girls....SO cute!

Here is a close up of the sweet NEW Doodle Garden - Happy Harvest. The sentiment panel is from the Authentique Natural paper pack and cut with the rounded rectangle from the Blueprints 6 Die-namics and I also used the round scalloped sticker from the Authentique Natural Sticker sheet. The burlap flag was cut the flag die from Blueprints 6.

Here is the inside...I stamped the Doodle Garden - Happy Harvest girl in MFT Premium Dye Ink in Fuse Green on MFT Replenishments Primitive White Heavyweight Card Stock. I used the the Pierced Circle STAX and the Layered Treat Tag Die-namics. I stamped a sentiment from the Doodle Garden - Happy Harvest Stamp set in the NEW Steel Grey Premium Dye Ink.

Well, thanks SO much for stopping by and having a wee peek at my card for the Catered Crop Recipe Swap - Sentimental and with this week's fabulous sketch DS117 over at the Deconstructed Sketch!

My Favorite Things Stamps...WSC # 138 and Catered Crop Swap - Map It...Good Times!

Hey stampin' friends...and scrappin' friends! Just popping by to share a page that I made with some NEW My Favorite Things stamps and Die-namics from the August release. I have to say I'm really missing the MFT monthly ScrapSketch...it was always great inspiration for me to get some pics scrapbooked each month...and I'm hoping they bring it back at some point...fingers crossed!  In the meantime,  I thought I could use this week's MFTWSC138 for some pics from our weekend in the Muskokas at my brother's girlfriend's, family cottage on Lake Rosseau. I am also entering this page in the Catered Crop Swap - Map it Recipe Swap (I used some map-themed pattern paper from the BasicGrey Serenade 12X12 paper pack.)

Here is the great sketch that I used and made some minor adjustments to fit my pic size.

My son, Kieran, did some tubing at the cottage and he had a great time...although he didn't have quite the "need for speed" that I thought he would...I was totally okay with that, smile! I love the expression on his face in this pic and so I wanted to really make it the focal but I have a several other tubing pics that I plan to scrapbook on smaller 6X4 and 3X4 "cards" to fit in the pockets of a divided sleeve from my We R Memory Keepers Albums Made Easy.  I used BasicGrey Serenade 12X12 papers and My Favorite Things Stamps Replenishments Heavyweight Card Stock in Steel Grey, Steel Blue, Smooth White and Sno Cone. I also used MFT Premium Dye Ink in Fuse, Steel Blue and Kraft.

The NEW LLD Accent It - World Traveler Die-namics was perfect for my page...I used the ship icon and layered it with Circle STAX and Pierced Circle STAX Die-namics. I also used the NEW LLD Document It - Enjoy the Journey Stamp set. I stamped some random arrows with the arrow stamp from the LLD Document It - Enjoy the Journey Stamp set in Kraft Premium Dye Ink. I added a smattering of epoxy dots here and there too.

I also used the LLD Accent It - Celebrate Die-namics for the title cut from Smooth White Heavyweight Card Stock. I also used some map paper from the BasicGrey Serenade 12X12 paper pack for the Map It Recipe Swap at Catered Crop Swap to cut the fishtail flags with the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics. I stamped the detour stamp from the LLD Document It - Enjoy the Journey Stamp set with Steel Blue Premium Dye Ink on Smooth White Heavyweight Card Stock and cut it out.

Here, I used the Catch a Wave Border Die-namics I wrapped some Hemp cord around and a cute anchor from the LLD Accent It - World Traveler Die-namics. I also used the smallest die from the Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics, cut more map paper and stamped the date with the LLD Document It - Days and Date Stamp set.


Well, thanks SO much for stopping by and having a wee peek at my 12X12 page for the My Favorite Things Stamps - MFTWSC138 sketch challenge and the Catered Crop - Map It Recipe Swap.
