**Seasons Givings Hop Post is HERE**

Hi everyone!  Happy 2015!  It’s going to be a big year for My Favorite Things and we are starting off with a bang!  If you haven’t heard the news already, be sure to check out the ENORMOUS announcement on the MFT Blog today.  Seriously big. There’s a hint on my sidebar. ————>  

To send my MFT Happy New Year greeting, I used Pure Innocence Happy Banner, surrounded by hanging stars from Tag Builder Blueprints 1 and confetti from Party Balloons.

After stamping onto X-Press It Blending Card with Black Licorice hybrid ink, she was colored with Copics and sparkled with a clear Wink of Stella glitter pen.  Numbers, die-cut using Emmitt Numbers & Symbols Die-namics, were also glittered.

Inside, I hung a few more stars and stamped a sentiment from Holiday Subway Art.

We had a lot of sickness here around the holiday so I didn’t have much time to pull things together.  However, I DO have a gift I hope one of you will enjoy.

I used Stamping Bella’s Uptown Girl Opal the Optimist to ring in the new year. She’s stamped using MFT’s Black Licorice hybrid ink on X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copic markers.  Along the side, I used two layers of Looped Border cut from Electric Red card stock.

It doesn’t show well (or at all) in the photo, but her dress is covered with a clear Wink of Stella glitter pen.  So sparkly!  It is New Year’s after all.  🙂
