Hi all!  For this Hop, I created a two-page 8 x 8 layout demonstrating some fun ways to use clear stamps.  Scrapbooking is NOT my thing, so just know that the sets are much cuter, and there will be far better eye candy as you Hop Around the Block.  Next up on your journey is Kathy, and I’m sure she will have something lovely to share with you!

I am on the road heading home from our Chantilly, VA show, but will be home soon, and I can’t wait to crawl into my own bed!  It was so awesome to meet everyone in VA, I had the best time!

Also, just so you know…July marks the 3rd birthday of MFT, and let me just tell you we have THE most amazing month ahead for all of YOU!

MFT is taking it on the road to the Great American Scrapbook Convention from Tuesday, June 23rd THROUGH Thursday, July 2nd. We hope you’ll join us at the show!

PLEASE NOTE: Orders will NOT ship during this time, so as our way of rewarding our oh-so-patient customers, each order received during this time will receive a little goodie added when your order is shipped upon our return!

Why is our VIP Day on a MONDAY??  Because we are leaving to attend the Chantilly, VA Great American Scrapbook Convention early tomorrow morning, and won’t be returning until Thursday, July 2nd.

So, rather than have all of you anxious WTG? fans wait another week, we decided to let you have her two days early!

This month, our VIP Kit includes:

Catch Some Rays the upcoming Who’s That Girl? set - $15.95

Polka Dot Perfection Ribbon Nest - $11.95

(Contains 5 yards each of 5 scrumptious colors in 5/8ths”, for a total of 10 yards in Hot Pink, Apple Green, Navy, Red and Sunshine Yellow)

Please note your VIP Perks for July include:

VIP perk #1: You get our newest WTG? set in your hot little hands one week before anyone else even sees it!

VIP perk #2: Should you wish to purchase the One-Click Collection within the first 48 hours of the release, you may switch out your VIP WTG? set with any other set on the site by mentioning your selection in the comments section of that order.

VIP perk #3: A FREE Hit the Beach set added to your VIP Bundle! (No exchanges or substitutions)

Welcome to the Hop Around the Block with MFT!  I am up first with a teaser from the I Want Coffee Flopsey being released tonight at midnight. Next up on the hop is Cindy Haffner, and I’m sure she’ll have some fabulousness to share with you!

We also have a new Stephanie Fizer set being released, Rainy Day Friends, that is absolutely knock your socks off adorable!

This is also the first official hop with our newest MFT Sweet 16 members, so I hope you’ll leave everyone some love!

We are starting a new feature this month, and hope you enjoy it!  It’s time to get…

For our first installment, Deb Anton, our jewelry designer has created a one-of-a-kind jewelry piece featuring a product we will have on the site very shortly!

You can check out her entire tutorial HERE, and we hope you’ll play along using the instructions she’s provided, or dance to the beat of your own drummer by creating a 3-D piece all your own!

Hi all!  I was browsing through the gallery and stumbled across this card made by Julie Dinn.

Julie is our MFT Ambassador for the next 6 months and hosts a fun challenge for our Mid-Month release (coming up next Wed!)

She used What a Girl Wants by MFT Presents - Amanda Baird, and I *think* Amanda has her second set coming out Wednesday!  She also used our Chocolate Kiss Paper Pack and Ribbon Nest, too!

For our Take $10 special, I thought it only fitting to list What a Girl Wants, so if you don’t have her yet, you can snap her up for $10 now through Sunday.

Also - how about a REALLY BIG Promo? Now through Friday, you’ll receive a $10 gift voucher for every $50 you spend!  It will automatically be added to your account next week, ready for your next MFT purchase.

Cindy Vernon, come on down!  Email your address to me at kim@mftstamps.com, and I’ll pop your Who’s That Grillin’ Guy sample set in the mail!!!

And…stay tuned for some extra fun tomorrow for What’s Up Wednesday!

Happy Friday!  We are trying something new, and I thought I’d see how you like it.  On the main page, you’ll find a fancy slide show with a few samples of the new sets from the DT.  I’ll be uploading more photos as time permits, but thought I’d see if you guys enjoyed a one-stop-glance at some samples from the MFT Sweet 16!

And, for your willingness to offer your opinion, I thought I’d offer up a FREE Who’s That Grillin’ Guy sample set!

Leave a numbered comment below with your slide show feedback, and I’ll pick a winner on Monday!

Hi all!  Welcome to the June Release Hop Around the Block!  I know for a fact there is ALL kinds of eye candy along the way, and I hope you will squeal with delight at the sets this month.

I have used The Poppies (and an idea from Amy) to create a little box that houses a graduation gift card for my girls.  It was super simple, and a perfect little something just for them.

I used a fancy *trick* you can learn about in this weeks HTDT? thread.

Next up on the hop, you’ll be visiting Joanne, and I’m quite sure she will delight you with goodness!
