My Favorite Things September VIP Hop!

It's My Favorite Things' VIP Blog Hop time!! If you got here from Sherrie's blog you're right on track. If not, do yourself a favor and head on over to Kim's blog 'cause that's the beginning--you won't want to miss anything.

Is this some fabulousness (of course it's a word!) or what!? Have you just loved the à la Modes previews? Oh, yeah! Well, hold on to your seats, 'cuz here comes Well Read WTG :)


What did I tell you? Don't you love this? I'm about to use up most of my Thrift Shop paper but I managed to find enough for this card--it's perfect for this set's theme, doncha think? :) I'm using the Die-namics Open Scallop Border Die on the front and the Framed Greetings die on the inside. Did I mention how much I love ALL of the Die-namic dies? OK, but I especially love the Framed Greetings die. A lot. Other MFT products I used on this card are: Whip Cream and Black Licorice card stock, the Lace Ribbon Collection (temporarily out of stock), and the Summer Button Collection.
