Did you know I'm FABULOUS?


Seriously? Did you know that I'm fabulous? Well, I am for today anyway! Today I am the Fabulous Friend over at the My Favorite Things blog, and I'm thrilled about it! Being the Fabulous Friend means getting to use stamps that I love from a company that I love, so what could be better?

Kim graciously sent me some fun stamps of my choosing to work with for today, and I chose the set Coffee? Tea? and Who's that Chocoholic? She also sent me Invitation Only to use for today, and if you stop by the MFT blog, you can see what I created using those sets! I also created this little gifty bag of chocolate using the Who's the Chocoholic? set to show you here today!
If you're a fan of the TV show friends, you might remember the episode where Monica is making Christmas candy for all the neighbors? And one of the neighbors tells her friends that the candies are like "little drops of Heaven!" Remember? Well, say hello to "Little Drops of Heaven!" I recently discovered this candy at the bulk food store next to Toyrifix! They're called Mocha Coffee Lentils. I've seen them there before, but the word "lentils" always made me think "ewww!" Well, trust me... they're not real lentils! I don't know why they call them that, but these babies are like mocha/coffee M&M's! They're sabotage to this girl who's trying to lose weight, so I figured I'd give them as gifts and share the love to keep myself from eating them! (Plus if I fatten up everyone around me, then I'll appear thinner, right?) So I made up a few of these little treat bags for coffee-loving/chocolate-loving friends!

I used my Labels 8 Nestabilities for the bag topper, and used some of the Simply Spring Gingham collection digital papers from MFT to paper-piece the dress. (I gingham!)

So anyway, please hop on over to the MFT blog to see my other projects with these fabulous stamps! I had so much fun creating these things to share with everyone today, so I hope you love 'em, too! You can read a little bit about a big mess I made recently while stamping late into the night, too!

Many, many thanks to Kim for asking me to be her Fabulous Friend today! I'm honored!

Happy Monday!
