I love the color teal and think it is a perfect color for Fall. So, when I was figuring out what I wanted to do for a sketch using some of My Favorite Things, I definitely wanted to use teal. Now, My Favorite Things has some amazing products and I wish I could have them all. However, life gets in the way, so I have a few. The past couple of weeks have been a bit stressful around here, so I wanted to do something fun and hopefully bring a laugh to more than just me. Here’s what I came up with:
To make this hilarious (I had to explain it to my son before he thought it was funny), teal card, I used papers from Cardmaker’s Creative Pack Citrus (Hot Off The Press), teal ribbon (Celebrate It 360), Teal Zeal ink (Memento), rhinestones (Darice), Banner Basics Two (Spellbinders), Clearly Sentimental About Audrey Hepburn (My Favorite Things), and Die-Namics Contempo Cage (My Favorite Things).
I have to tell you that My Favorite Things has an amazing die that would have cut out my center piece perfectly and quickly, but since I don’t have it, I spent quite a while trying to round the top of the piece and get it right. They are having a new release on October 16 from 8-10 pm EST, which I am really looking forward to. Go check out the amazing stamps and dies they offer.
Thanks for spending some time with me today!
This design is top-notch, Golda. I love the white cut-out to look like a bird cage.
Blessing hugs,
Teresa

Thank you, Susan! I love teal and turquoise, but it’s not so easy to find just the right color of ink. This one is pretty good, though.
