Here is the card I made using this set.....
I have the beach on my mind since we will going on our first family vacation in 6 years down to the beach for the 4th. I am SO excited.
With the beach theme swirling in my head and my LOVE for sitting on the beach with a good book or playing in the sand with my boys, I thought that using the adorable Carved Heart set would make a fun frame for a beach inspired shaker card.

I thought I would go cute and fun with this one :)
To make my card I used the new You Are Spot On stamp/die set for both the sentiment and the circle face.

I have 2 cards to share using these sets.....
For my first card, I played around with my zig watercolor markers to create a rainbow background using the new Fun Polka Dots. Next I used 2 of the new Sentiment Label Dies and stamped my sentiment onto the top label die using the new You Are a Blessing stamp set. A few enamel dots completed my card.

For my second card, I went CAS using again the Fun Polka Dots stamp set but this time using the solid polka dots and some Hero Arts Ombre ink. I stamped the polka dots along the top of my card and used another sentiment from the new You Are A Blessing set. I grabbed some matching Totally Raspberry Trendy Twine for a simple bow.
I thought my card was still missing something so I stamped some more polka dots to the bottom corner and then placed some enamel dots randomly on the card.

I used the new mini tabbed note card die and added some lined designer card stock.
For some extra texture on the bottom of my note card, I used the paper border die~ so fun!
The sentiment was stamped onto the front of the designer paper and then I added the adorable die cut apple popped up.

I am hoping you are all LOVING this new release as much as I am and can not wait to share what we have the next 2 days!

Sentiment Label Dies

And here is my inspiration using this die!
With the 4th of July quickly approaching, I thought I would use those banner dies to make a USA Flag.
I used the smallest banner from the new set and die cut 2 of each color, white and red for the stripes.
Next I used one of the square dies as the blue section of the flag. This is where I heat embossed my sentiment onto as well.
Some red, white and blue sequins completed my card.

MCT Trending Now~Make it Bright!

Good Morning everyone!
Thanks for stopping by today for another
Trending Now with My Creative Time!

Today we are MAKING it BRIGHT with fun spring colors.
For my card I did make it bright as well as make it fun :)

I used designer paper from DoodleBug Designs  for the bright and cheerful background and played the focal point of my card around the sentiment from the You're Brilliant stamp set.
I die cut the sun from the newer You are My Sunshine set and then thought that he would look super cute with a pair of sunglasses on. Those glasses are so super adorable and you can find them in the What's Growing On? set. 
For the glasses I also added glossy accents for some extra shine on top of the silver shiny card stock.
To finish my card I added some die cut stars from the newly released Shine like the Stars set, layered some Wink of Stella onto the tops of them and then popped them up with some foam. I also added a few gold sequins.
