May MFTeasers - Day 1!!!


It's the beginning of the month again and you know what that means!!! New My Favorite Things stamps!!! Yaaaaay!! I've been working hard on some awesome new samples (if I do say so myself) and I can finally start to share them with you!!!

This first card features a new set called Gone to the Dogs!!! I am very much a dog person and this set covers just about every breed of dog imaginable!! And you can alter them to look however you want them to, which is what I did with this one!!

You may have seen my dog Daisy before.....she is our little baby!!! So the first card I made with this set was based on she and I taking a walk!! I stamped the lady part of the image first and then I stamped the little Jack Russell Terrier stamp. I then inked up the leash to the length that I wanted it and connected the woman's hand and the dog's collar. I stamped the hat from Can Ya Dig It? as well as the skirt on some coordinating patterned paper by DCWV and paper pieced them onto the main image. Obviously I coloured them in using my Copic markers to match the DCWV dps. I made sure that Daisy had her black patches just in the right spot, so it really looks like her! The clouds from Rain or Shine were stamped using Brilliance ink in Lavender, cut out and then layered onto the main image. The card base is Lavender Lace and I matted with Not Quite Navy. I pop dotted the main part, used the sentiment from Rain or Shine too and added some glittery flowers that I picked up at Hobby Lobby.

Now usually I don't wear heels, a skirt and a big floppy hat when walking Daisy.....oh no. Even though she's small, I'm generally flying down the street behind her with my arm being yanked out of the socket! But this is what I would LIKE for our walks to look like!!! Heehee!!

Anyway, My Favorite Things is having a New Release Cocktail Party on Wednesday, May 7 from 9-11 p.m EST. Eastern time. Lots of fun is planned including finding out how YOU can be the next MFT Guest Designer. Head over to the MFT forum on SCS to find out all the details and we hope to see you there on Wednesday night.

Keep your eyes peeled for more Teasers from me and all the other MFT Designers!!!

Oh I love how you put the hat from the 'can ya dig it' stamp onto this stamp. I am going to have to remember that. I have those stamps coming to me in the mail and I can't wait to try it! Thanks for the inspiration!

If only I looked this elegant at any time let alone walking the dog. We only get the arm out of the socket now if we walk too quick!

Kimmie...this is a great card! Very, very clever of you to add the hat from "Can you dig it" such a fantastic idea! I don't have any doggies but I am loving these new MFT stamps!
