Hi crafty friends,

the fabulous My Favorite Things What's Cookin' Card Kit is now available for purchase. The price for this coordinated collection of products is 30% off the cost of buying the elements separately.

I used several of the die sets to create another kitchen scene, this time on a square card. For some extra sweetness, I added the adorable kitty from the JB Kitchen Cuties stamp set.

I started off with a white card base and trimmed down one of the Diagonal Gingham Papers to be a bit smaller. Onto another white square panel, I did some masking and ink blending with Distress Oxides (Tumbled Glass, Milled Lavender, Lost Shadow).

Next, I die cut all the parts for the cabinet, stove, cooking utensils and kitchen accessories. The cardstock colors I used are Sno Cone, Summer Splash, Tropical Teal, Grape Jelly, Boysenberry, Smooth White, Kraft, Cement Gray, Gravel Gray and Black Licorice. The metallic parts were cut from Brushed Silver Card Stock.

I stamped the little cat in Extreme Black Hybrid Ink and colored the image with Copic markers. I used the coordinating die to cut it out. I stamped one of the sentiments in VersaFine Onyx Black Ink to the right side of the cat which I popped up with foam tape. I added an enamel heart to finish off the card.

Here's another look at the November Card Kit:

MFT Stamps • What's Cookin' Card Kit • Preview

Happy Monday everyone,

today we're introducing the My Favorite Things What's Cookin' Card Kit that will be available tomorrow at 10 am EST.

There will be 6! die sets released that you can mix and match to create the kitchen of your dreams ;-)

This is what my preview card looks like:

First, I created an A2 landscape card base from white cardstock. In the background, I used the English Brick Wall Stencil with Lost Shadow Distress Oxide Ink. For the floor, I trimmed down a 1/2" strip from Cement Gray Card Stock.

Next, I die cut all the bits and pieces for the stove, cabinet, fridge and kitchen accessories. The cardstock colors I used are Sno Cone, Summer Splash, Tropical Teal, Smooth White, Gravel Gray as well as Brushed Silver Card Stock for the metallic parts.

MFT Stamps • November Release Spotlight Day 4

Hi peeps,

we've reached the final day of the My Favorite Things November Release Spotlight. Please check out the MFT Blog for another round of DT inspiration.

On today's square card, I'm highlighting the cute Winter Kittens stamps set which is perfect to create playful scenes with.

First, I cut and scored a 4.5" x 4.5" card base from white cardstock. I trimmed down one of the plaid papers from the Orange Sherbet Paper Pad to be slightly smaller. To be able to have separate little scenes, I picked the Horizontal Stitched Strips Die-namics and cut three of them from white cardstock. I applied Salvaged Patina and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink to the bottom using a light hand.

Next, I stamped the images in Extreme Black Hybrid Ink and colored them with Copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out. I stamped one of the sentiments in VersaFine Onyx Black Ink and assembled the scenes by adhering the images with liquid glue.

MFT Stamps • November Release Spotlight Day 3

Hello everyone,

it's Day 3 of the My Favorite Things November Release Spotlight and we're still sharing some winter inspiration with the new products.

On today's card I combined the SY WarmWinter Hugs stamp set with the Fanciful Frame STAX Die-namics.

I started off with a white A2 card base and cut a Sno Cone Card Stock panel with the largest die of the A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 2 Die-namics set.

Next, I created an one-layer-scene with the help of masking. The images were stamped in Extreme Black Hybrid Ink and colored with Copic markers. For the sky, I did some faded blending with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide Ink. I cut out the scene with the largest Fanciful Frame die. Finally, I stamped the sentiment in VersaFine Onyx Black Ink and added a small red heart next to it.

MFT Stamps • November Release Spotlight Day 2

Hi crafty friends,

we're continuing to review the awesome new products of the My Favorite Things November Release. I invite you to visit the MFT Blog for another round of DT inspiration.

Today I'm sharing another winter card which I made with the adorable YUZU North Pole Pals stamp set.

I started off with a white A2 card base and trimmed down another panel to the same size. I decided to do a gradient ink blended purple sky with Distress Oxides (Villainous Potion, Dusty Concord and Milled Lavender). To create some falling snow, I spattered on white paint with a brush. For the snowy hill, I used one of the Sand and Surf Die-namics and applied Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink to the top half. The sentiment was stamped in Summer Splash Premium Dye Ink.

Next, I stamped the polar bear along with two of the cute penguins in Extreme Black Hybrid Ink and colored them with Copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut out the images which I adhered to the snow hill. Finally, I die cut three of the Stylish Snowflakes from white cardstock to decorate the card.

MFT Stamps • November Release Spotlight Day 1

Hello everyone,

today we're shining a spotlight on the winter themed My Favorite Things November Release that went live yesterday.

Look at these adorable cuties from the JB Snow Happy stamp set! In the background I used the Heavy Snowfall Stencil.

First, I created a top-folding card base from Tropical Teal Card Stock which is slightly bigger than A2. Onto a white cardstock panel I did some ink blending with Distress Oxides (Peacock Feathers, Salvaged Patina and Cracked Pistachio). When the background was completely dry, I went over it with the stencil and white pigment ink for a subtle look. For the snowy hill, I used one of the Sand and Surf Die-namics and applied Salvaged Patina Ink to the top edge.

Next, I stamped the snowmen as well as the gorgeous tree in Extreme Black Hybrid Ink and colored them with Copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut out the images. The sentiment was stamped onto a Ripe Raspberry Card Stock rectangle with VersaMark Ink and I heat embossed it in white. Finally, I assembled the card by adhering the images, snow hill and sentiment using liquid glue.

MFT Stamps • November Release Day

Hi sweet friends,

the My Favorite Things November Release is now available for purchase! Please check out the MFT Blog for today's inspiring DT projects.

I created a fun winter scene with the new Merry Moose stamp set and the playful In the Loop Background.

First, I cut and scored an A2 card base from white cardstock. Onto a slightly smaller Kraft Card Stock panel, I stamped the loopy background with VersaMark Ink and heat embossed it in white. I die cut the largest of the Stitched Rounded Arch STAX Die-namics from white cardstock and did some ink blending with Distress Oxides. At the top, I softly applied Tattered Rose and let it fade into white. For the snow hill I used Tumbled Glass and the Drifts & Hills Stencil.

Next, I stamped the images in Extreme Black Hybrid Ink and colored them with Copics. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out. The sentiment was stamped in VersaFine Onyx Black Ink onto a Sno Cone Card Stock strip. I colored the thin dark red strip and small heart die-cut with a Copic marker to match the skiing moose. Finally, I assembled the card by adhering the scene, images and sentiment.
