Hello friends! Thanks for stopping by today. I have been having such a blast this month creating with the My Favorite Things Challenge Blog team for my guest spot. 

Here's a look at this week's sketch.

For this week's card, I used the new Beast Friends set. I am really loving these adorable Yeti's! I was inspired by a set of ribbons I purchased from Home Goods this week for my color choice. I used the following cardstock colors from MFT: Berrylicious, Gravel Gray, Cotton Candy.

I love the Split Chevron cover-up. I decided not to take apart the pieces and used the design as my backdrop. Then I layered a circle die from the Pierced Circle Stax   and then cut the Berrylicious strip to ancor my sentiment, the Merry Christmas die. I finished it up with the adorable Yeti image. I added some Stickles to make him look frosty.

If you'd like to create with us this week, head on over to the My Favorite Things Challenge blog to find out how to link up your creation!

Have a fantastic Thanksgiving!!!

Shine On

Hello friends. Yes I am just getting this post up this morning for My Favorite Things weekly sketch challenge. 

We had a busy weekend in the Smith house celebrating our Lily turning 8. We spent her special day at The Grove having lunch at the American Girl Cafe and then shopping for her very first American Girl doll. Neighbors and friends have stopped by to give her gifts and we've frequented the Mattel Store a few times spending her Birthday money on Ever After High dolls. She now has quite the collection!

Anyway here is my card for this week's sketch

Supplies: My Favorite Things Stamps: Things with Wings, Patterned Paper: Dots & Stripes Sorbet, Dies: Pierced Circle Stax. Therm-O-Web Memory Tape Runner XL,  3D Foam squares Combo Pack

I decided to make an encouragement card for a friend who has been having a rough time. I love this sentiment. It makes me think, "when life gets you down, SHINE ON!" 

Do you like to send encouragement cards?

A new sketch challenge is posted every Wednesday at the My Favorite Things Challenge Blog.

Have a creative day!

Sprinkled with fun

Hello friends. Today I am sharing my card for this week's My Favorite Things

Here's a look at this week's sketch.

I got my new release order from MFT in time to use it for this week's sketch. I could not wait to get those Donut Dies by Laina Lamb. They are so fun!

I used the donut stamps to create a background using the MFT Hybrid inks and sentiment from LLD Donuts and Sprinkle stamp set.

Next I used some Fabritac glue to adhere the felt to the cardstock and dab my sprinkles in to adhere to the felt to create my donut. Then I used 3D foam squares from Therm O Web to adhere my card.

It's always fun creating for MFT's weekly challenge. If you'd like to create with us too then check out the My Favorite Things Challenge and Inspiration blog!

Have a creative day!
