Making A List...Bet YOU Are, Too!!!

Tonight's My Favorite Things teasers are bringing two AMAZING sets to you from the NEW Laina Lamb Designs line!! This month she has two new sets for you: Document It December and Journal It-Top Ten. I used both together to create a card, but I can see where the Scrapbooking (Life Journal, Project Life, etc.) possibilities are ENDLESS!!

As I said above, I combined both sets together to make my card. I cut off the main image from Journal It-Top Ten, to make it shorter (so it would fit on my card). I used the numbers from the Journal It set, too, to make it look like a list. The rest of the sentiments that I used are all from the Document It December set, and I stamped the Naughty and Nice on a piece of Basic Grey Aspen Frost paper. My sentiment panel were created with the Accent It Flags&Tags Die-namics, along with a Wild Cherry button, some hemp cord, and  Jellybean Green Grosgrain. If you can see them on the main panel, I used two of the check marks from that die as well. My flourishes were created using the Fancy Flourish Die-namics, and for my background, I used more of the Aspen Frost paper, with the new Fishtail Flags Layers Stax Die-namics. My cardstock colors are Sweet Tooth, Wild Cherry, Jellybean Green, and Fossil.


For the inside, I used more of the same supplies.

Here are the Die-namics I have used:

Ninja Skillz Blog Hop Challenge


Our final day of peeks for this month are going to sneak up on you, and make you fall in love. What can we say, these stamps have SKILLZ!!


We have been begging for it, and finally, Torico gave us what we wanted…our very own NINJA set!! From colds to birthdays, this set is sure to kick whatever you need a card for’s butt!! Just stand back, he’s got this…




Ninja Skillz is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 26 stamps and will sell for $24.00.




I am in LOVE with this set...those ninja's are just TOO cute!! I stamped mine on X-Press It blending card, and then colored him with Copics. He was layered with Orange Fizz(MFT), Red Hot(MFT), and Pacific Point(SU) cardstock. I used Red Hot grosgrain, Michael's breads, a Creative Express Spiral clip, Shore Twine, and the MFT Jumbo Squiggle Border Die-namics. My paper is from the MME Playdate paper pad. The sketch I used was this past week's Deconstructed Sketch.
