I have several of the MFT stamps and dies. I don't think I could pick out a favorite. They are all precious.

My Favorite MFT dies are the file tabs and bracket tabs! Silly, I know, but for an organizational freak like me these are amazing! I can label things with these great die-cuts and be a HAPPY GIRL! LOL Love all of their stuff though to be honest!

Oh my, I am falling in love with all the gorgeous MFT stamp sets. I just ordered a bunch yesterday. Thank you so much for all the inspiration. I have not played with any MFT dies yet but am thinking that will be my next purchase. I absolutely love the girl in the first card. Is she from Life is a Picnic?

I love their Blueprints!

I love their dies and the Pure Innocence line of stamps.

Awesome cards! I love MFT's Blueprints die sets, and Blueprints 14 is my favorite!

I love their dies, especially the Blueprints. ;-)

My fav product is their dies. I love the blueprints and so many others. I'm still in love with the Die-namics Gerbera Daisy.

That car and license plate is too stinky cute.

Love MFT!!! I'm a huge fan of theirs!! I just love all of their coordinating stamps & die-namics!! Lately I have been gravitating toward anything that works on layouts. My focus is shifting back to that!!

I love so many things there, but my fave right now is the CS Smile stamps. What variety! Lots of ways to say 'you make me smile' with that one!

I really like the die set used on the last card in the post. Thanks for the chance to win!!

These are all great creations! I love so about MFT that it's difficult to choose a "favorite thing" (nevermind the pun hehe) but I think aside from the awesome stamps, dies, my favorite thing about My Favorite Things is the owner KIM and her incredible and fabulous DT. This group of ladies pump out SO much inspiration, it's hard to keep up, but it's always so fun and exciting for me when MFT has a release because I get to see even more out-of-this-world creations from the DT. So yeah, that would be my favorite thing about MFT--the people who bring everything to life!!! :)

The Pure Innocence Can't Wait to See You stamp set! Absolutely perfect for Operation Write Home missing you cards!

I think that car is my fave, so good for so many card ideas.
Posted by: Pamela McGillin | July 03, 2014 at 05:30 PM
While I love so many of the stamps, I am in love with the sentiment stamps...especially the Chalkboard Greetings stamp.

I love their stamps and dies both and can't get enough of them. (MFT is one of my 2 favorite companies.)

Love their stamps and dies. The title words are faves.
Posted by: Stacie D | July 03, 2014 at 07:32 PM
Their dies have traditionally been my favorite items, but I am in love with the new Birdie Brown line too.

My current faves are the Watercolor Backdrops stamp sets. I like the watercolor look but don't like how you don't know what color you have until the watercolor paint is dry. It's much easier for me to trust a stamp color & these sets have so many different kinds of "splotches"!

My Favorite Things are my favorites for stamps and dies!
