Can't get enough "Creative Time"...

Hello crafty friends! Well I couldn't sleep last night as I've been under the weather. So I got creative. I have a few very special birthdays coming up in my family (my god-daughters, both of them, born on the same day 9 years apart! lol... bit of info) anyway, I think these came out SOOO adorable!

 Hope you enjoy!

Please leave comments, love 'em!

Let me just say that this is such a FUN FUN stamp/die set!!

you can purchase it HERE

This first card is a 4x4 card using Kraft card stock, and My Minds Eye 6 x 6 pack Lost and Found.

I used my brand new FAVORITE die, Fun Pockets. The balloons were cut from MCT build a banner kit, I used the little circle stitched die. Punched it with a rectangle punch for the balloon effect. Some twine for the balloon strings. Of course, some faux stitching I had to use! The inside sentiment says Wish Big from another of MCT stamp sets Wow so many candles....

 This next card is also a 4 x 4 . I rounded the edges with my corner punch. Used MCT Celebrate Good Times Stamp/die set.... for the stamp and dies. SO adorable! Love the bright colors and how well they look with the Kraft paper.

Ok this last card is a 6.25 x 3.5 card. The patterned paper is from Fancy Pants "Be You" 6 x 6 paper pack. Navy card stock, the jeans stamp and sentiment are of course from MCT Fun pockets (colored with my Spectrum Noir markers...still havent heard back from the company about them exploding!)

I used real mini clothes pins colored in orange spectrum marker. So cute!

MCT Pocket Full of.....

Hello!! It's been a while since I've posted here. I just received My Creative Time's 17th edition stamp/die set!! I LOVE it! Couldnt wait to play. I made these 2 cards using Fun pockets stamp set & Fun in the Sun stamp set.

I colored with my copic markers and Spectrum Noir markers (which some exploded in my hand when I opened them! I'll be sending those back) Anyway, hope you enjoy!

This next project I created with Love You A Latte Cricut cartridge, My Creative Time You Are Perk-fect stamp set. I found the frame at Joann's on clearance for 4.97. Made a name frame, vinyl letters on the glass, and removed this mat. It's been siting in my craft corner waiting for inspiration. I thought of this project for a kitchen. Thought it came out pretty good. There's clear acetate paper adhered to the back of the mat. I cut each coffee item about 4-5" depending on the item and adhered that to the front. Stamped my little sentiments on the bottom and wala!  The whole thing measures 20 x 8".

MCT March release

Hello crafty friends! OMG let me tell you, this release from My Creative Time is awesome!! Absolutely LOVE it!

The release consists of 5 stamp sets which include a die, backgrounds, sentiments, icons... its gorgeous!

So here is my 1st project. Please check out more projects from Miss Emma herself along with her amazing design team!

Enjoy!!

So I saw in one of Emma's videos how to stamp the background onto the die. She made a 'mask' and taped it and then stamped. Well, I stamped my cup onto a piece of white contact paper, cut out the image and then stamped on the background. I figured this would stick to the paper as well as the surface around it so I could evenly stamp. It worked awesome!!  LOVE this set!

please head over to My Creative Time Here

to check out all the details for linking up YOUR project!

Happy Crafting!

Happy Frigid Sunday!

Hello crafters! I've been trying to post on here for a while and this blogger didnt seem to be working. Lets give it a whirl.... So I spent a great Saturday playing with my kids, took them shopping, made a yummy dinner and did some crafting in between. Here is one project I made with Cricut vinyl and my cricut. Welded letters from Gypsy font, placed on the front glass of the frame and removed the cardboard from the back. Put a dot of hot glue in each corner before putting the glass back on and moved the fasteners again to 'seal' the glass in the frame. Waalaa!  I LOVE how this turned out. I made one for my parents with a different saying, of course. Maybe I'll post a pic of that one later. Enjoy!  Please leave comments. Love to hear from you!
