Cheers to my OMG BIG NEWS!!!!!

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!!! 

That's pretty much what has been running through my head for the past 5 weeks or so since Kim van der Sanden and Jody Morrow called me and invited me to join the



Yup!  I finally made it!  It's no secret that I have been trying to weasel my way on to this team for quite some time.   I have ALWAYS been a big fan of MFT, but when I took a trip to FL to meet up with a bunch of crafty friends last March and went to the visit the MFT Boutique, the obsession began.  I just fell in love with it all and knew I wanted to be a part of this.   I have been working my tail off to show MFT that I have what it takes to be an MFT designer.   All my hard work has finally paid off!   Jody said she admired my tenacity.  I can't think of a better compliment that that!

To celebrate, I am giving away the new Doodle Garden stamp set that will be released on January 7th to one of my blog followers!   Just leave a comment on this post to qualify!  I will announce the winner on Sunday, January 5th!

If you follow my blog, you know that I have been doing some guest designing this month for MFT and today is my last post as a guest because tomorrow I am FULL-TIME Designer for MFT and I will be participating in the 1st of  7 days of release sneak peeks!

 While I can't show you the entire card here on my blog, I CAN give you a sneak of a little celebratory  something I made with the new Die-namics Layered Champagne Glass and Stitched Circle STAX!


I am about to kick off 2014 by starting a new job as the Dementia Program Director at a local nursing home AND I will be a full-time designer for MFT!   This is going to be a GREAT year!   

Wishing you a very happy and healthy New Year!

Now head on over t the MFT Blog to see the entire card 
and to see WHO ELSE has been added to the MFT Design Team!

  5. Congratulations Kim, you are a star and I am not surprised you made the team! Sounds like a Very Happy New Year for you! Congrats on the new job too, my aunt has early dementia but is at home, I know it is very tough for my uncle and disabled cousin, and I am planning on offering to help if I can.
