My Favorite Things Design Team!!!!





Hello Friends!

 I have the most exciting news to share! I have known this for over a month now and haven't been able to tell anyone and it's been making me crazy!! :) I am one of the new designers for My Favorite Things! I have loved their products for years, and have quite the collection. I was totally floored when I got an email inviting me to be on the team! I went around in a stupor for two days! haha! Ask my family! They'll tell you! And I'll tell you this, the team at MFT is so super nice! They are wonderful to work with! I can't tell you how thrilled I am about this opportunity!! A dream come true :) Thank you so much My Favorite Things!!

 Hop on over to the MFT blog to see who all the other new designers are! It's an amazing team of talent and I am really honored to be among them!

So I made a card to share while I announced this wonderful news with you! I got the cute kitties when they first came out and fell instantly in love with them. Actually I am a dog person, but these kitties stole my heart. Don't get me wrong, I like cats too. I have two of them, but it's the dogs that I really connect and bond with. Anyway, you want to hear about my card, not my relationship with animals! Haha! 
So I colored the kitty and his ball of yarn and I thought he really needed something to sit beside, so I stamped and colored the cute boot from the You Gnome Me set to go with him.  I used Copic markers to color them all and cut them out with the matching dies.



 I cut a stitched rectangle for the white background and cut the quilted shape from the Blueprints 20 Die-namics out of the center, then I glued the stitched rectangle down to a Natural card base, and glued the quilted pieces back in to it. I stamped the sentiment at the bottom and added the kitty, boot, yarn and heart with foam tape.

 Thank you so much for stopping by to share in my wonderful news and excitement! I am looking forward to sharing my cards for the new MFT release on May 1st! It's SO amazing!!

 Hope you all have a wonderful week!

 Hugs,

 Kay :)
