I made this tote bag with the intention of stuffing it with tissue, chocolate and a gift card for some ice cream. When someone is sad, can you think of anything better to do? I have actually employed this tactic on one more than one occasion! :) (you know who you are!) Unfortunately for me (and my photograph) ANY pieces of tissue in this house are currently being salvaged for my darn cold. I mean really... what part of that is fair? Is it normal to be sick for almost 2 weeks? Today I came home from the grocery store with yet ANOTHER 3 pack of Puffs Plus. LOL The sentiment "It's a Straight From the Carton Kind of Day" is one of my favorites from the set. I submitted this sentiment and was so happy to see it in the set. :) Funny enough, the "Oh fudge!" sentiment is actually in the Here's the Scoop? stamp set. Heehee!
My other creation is inspired by my friend, Carole. She loves bright colors and I tried to channel her for this card. I used the brand new 6 X 6 paper pack and crystals from MFT. I even broke a rule! *GASP* Don't tell silver that I used gold ok? I NEVER and I repeat NEVER use gold, but silver just wasn't cutting it. The #1 rule is... if something looks weird, CHANGE IT! Unfortunately that meant I had to use gold. *wince* LOL
It's time again for a new release from MFT. Ready to get TWISTED?
Let's twist again... like we did last year! You KNOW what I am talking about, right?
Last February we released Twisted Sentiments, and it became a sleeper HIT.
Not for the faint of heart, this stamp set is twisted and oh so hilarious! Use it to say JUST the right thing... when the right thing may be SO wrong.
Tonight, there are also 2 BRAND NEW printed, 6 X 6 paper packs available. You can find those HERE. They are brand new to MFT!
If you're just happening along the blog hop, please start at the beginning at KIM'S BLOG for the full experience. :) You want to see the other cool cards, right? :)
You should have been directed here from my pal, Cammie's blog. Surely she had something fabulous to share... she always does. :)
Guess where you're headed next?
Ready to click on over to the blog hop finale? You're ALMOST there! Just one more COLORFUL stop. I am SO super excited to send you to her. She is one of my very best stampin' friends! She is intelligent, kind, thoughtful and SO twisted! YES, I just called her twisted! I mean that in only the most loving way. :) It is only appropriate that she is coming back to MFT during the release of Twisted Too! After all, she is one of the most witty girls I know and I have NO doubt that she will come up with some really twisted cards using this new set!
Can I have a drum roll please?
