Hi everyone!  Welcome to the November new release hop with My Favorite Things!  If you’re just popping in here, you may want to go back to the beginning with Kim.  If you’ve just come from Cindy, then you’re in the right place.  🙂

This month, MFT is releasing 11 new sets, five of which are in the Pure Innocence line, new to MFT!  This little girl has the sweetest face and I just love coloring her.   This month she’s holding a balloon, an apple, snowballs, a flower…or she’s standing in the snow.  As I said in a previous post, it doesn’t matter what she’s doing.  She is CUTE!  You can buy all five sets with just one click HERE.

All of the new releases are available right now (right HERE), but BEFORE YOU GO, remember that there is blog candy hidden somewhere along the hop so be sure to comment on each post to increase your chances of winning!

Sending a Flurry of Love

Here I’ve used Flurry of Love.  She’s just so cute (said in a very squealy voice…and for the third time).

Your next stop in the hop is with Kirsten.  I’m sure she has something mega-adorable to share!!  😉 

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great day!

It’s Week 5 of My Favorite Things’ So You Think You Can Stamp contest.  This week’s theme is “Contemporary–Fresh and modern, think clean lines and simple style.”  Well, I was totally scratching my head on this one.  My work is usually not modern and it’s usually not clean or simple.  It was scary.  But I tried. 

Think Snow #1 

No patterned paper!  GASP!

I used MFT’s new Cool Yule set which will be available tonight at 10 p.m.   I tried to keep everything pretty white, or in this case cream.  But it was killing me.  So….

I kicked it up a notch or two while still trying to keep it pretty simple. 

Think Snow #2

That’s a big ol’ button from one of my MFT button scoops with a white glitter dot in the center.   I stamped the scarf a second time, added white dots, then cut it apart to add some fringe and dimensional boosters beneath a few of the ends.

If you’d like to play along, you can check out all the contest rules and details HERE. 

All entries for this week’s theme must be uploaded to SCS by Monday, November 9th.  Be sure to check out the details.  There are a few specifics you’ll need to know.  Let’s see your contemporary projects! 

I’ll be back at 10 p.m. tonight for the MFT New Release blog hop!  Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great day!
