It's day one of Teasers for the new releases at My Favorite Things, and since I'm the bomb-diggity GUEST DESIGNER this month, I'm extremely happy to get to share my creations with you using the new stamps and dies! Keep your hands and feet inside the car at all times, and hold on tight.... I've got a lot to show you today! Here we go....
My first card uses the new Sassy & Sweet stamp set and coordinating Sweet Stack Labels Die-Namics die. This set is AMAZING and both of my daughters love it, but especially Kelsey who loves animal print of any kind, so she just flipped out over this stamp set with the zebra and cheetah prints! And there are a bunch of teenager-appropriate words in this set, too! You'll love it! I chose to go kinda' wild and edgy with my card, using purple and black (Yes, purple! I know, right... I don't do purple!) But it just fit with this style. The zebra print is designed to fit in the A frame from the die set, but I chose instead to stamp it several times in a row to create this strip across my card. I added some reverse scallops below the strip cut with the Simply Scallops Die-Namics and the butterflies are from the Butterflies Die-Namics. I added major blingage with the Prima rhinestones and some Glimmer Mist Silver spray.
I kept the inside simple by using these gorgeous flourishes that are also included in the set, and the butterflies.My second card uses one of my favorite characters from MFT... Fred Bear! He's always so cute and cuddly looking and of course today he's just as charming as ever, 'cause who can resist a man with flowers, right? This set is called Oopsie Daisy, and with that name my thoughts turned immediately to this paper from the October Afternoon "Modern Homemaker" paper pad to pair up with Fred and his daisies. There are several sentiments in this set, and as per my usual habit I ended up cutting them apart to suit my need! Cutting them allowed me to curve the one ever so slightly and put it along the edge of the oval, then put the second half of it on the Sentiment Flag die at the bottom with no fuss and no muss!
And for the inside, I even cut "every" away from the rest of the sentiment, just to make that super-easy, too! (I know... someone should probably take the scissors away from me!) Adding some die-cut flowers inside and out with the Flower Trio Die-Namics was a no-brainer, too!
Be sure to stop on over at the MFT Blog for all the Teaser details for the coming week! We'll have more to show you through Tuesday evening when the release party officially starts over at Splitcoaststampers, and then you can GO SHOPPING! So stay tuned!
Here are all the Die-Namics I used on my cards today...
THANK YOU for visiting me today!!! I hope you'll be back for more!

Your purple card shows REAL versatility not only in your design by stepping out of your comfort zone and going purple but also shows so well what this AWESOME set can do! What a great way to use it!
Your Fred the Bear is just unbelievable!! They way you added the sentiment around him and then the rest of it on the Sentiment Flag is JUST AMAZING!!! It's definitely something I've never seen and that's cool! Love your use of the flower trio with this set and the daisy paper is a genius pairing! You're coloring is definitely some of the best in the bizz!!! I can't WAIT to see more MFT creations from you! LOTS MORE!!!
I'd say you "do" purple very well. And the Fred Bear card is out of this world. But, I have this fear of altering my stamps in any way...
