Toy's Haven

   Happy Sunday, ya’ll…

I’ll warn you up front, I may ramble a bit.  There are a few things I want to say.  But first……

Today’s Featured Stamper is Maren (mmbc).  First off, I adore her name.   I’ll be the first to admit, I wasn’t familiar with her gallery, but i am now!  Wowzers… another stamper with a clean fresh style that is very eye-catching and definitely appealing.  

I chose  this card by Maren to case.   Maren’s card caught my eye first thing this morning and I couldn’t stop thinking about it all through church!  Don’t tell my pastor on me.. lol.    I changed the colors just a bit.  I kept the integrity of her sketch and only added one layer.   I also centered the sentiment as that is the only place it would fit :).

Quite a few people have asked me what punches I use alot.   Well, ya’ll know I LOVE my scallop punches.   I have it in Mega, Giga and Large (all Marvy).  I also love my circle punches and have them in all sizes, ranging from 1″ to 3″.   One particular person *wink* (you know who you are) asked about which circle punches I use with the designer label punch.  I use the 1 1/4″ circle, then the designer label, then another circle 1 3/4″ of a contrasting color.   HTH! 🙂

Now.. There’s going to be some excitement going on this week over at My Favorite Things!  New Releases!!  In fact, the image on my card today is a MF*Teaser* using the new What’s Up Cupcake MINI set.    The one thing I love about MFT’s minis are that they are so packed with fun!  This one you’ll want to have :).   Here are the details of the upcoming release party:
