Welcome to Day 3 of the MCT 5 Days of Christmas Celebration!
Today the DT is sharing holiday cards!
Take a look at mine.....
Buffalo Plaid is so hot right now so when I was digging through my designer papers and came across the Carta Bella~ Christmas Delivery pad I was in HEAVEN!!
I do have to admit I want to hoard this pack and not use it BUT I did come up with a holiday card I am very proud of!
I used a Kraft Cardstock base, added a layer of white cardstock and then the designer paper die cut with the Stitched Rectangular Frame Die.
The sentiment comes from the Belly Band stamp set and I stamped it directly onto the designer paper.
The deer head, a favorite die of mine for the holidays is from the set All is Calm. I die cut him with the buffalo plaid designer paper, popped him up with some foam squares after adding a nest of gold thread behind him.
To finish off my card, I added some matching red, black and gold sequins.

Perfect Matcha!

But I might have to give it a try.
Anyways I made another gift .. a very easy to reproduce one using 2 of the sentiments from the new set. I stamped it onto the Cute Gift Tag Die and attached the tag to a box of yummy tea bags.

Good Morning everyone!!!
It is Day 2 of sneaks for the
73rd New Release from My Creative Time!
OMG wait until you see today's sneaks and projects...you are going to FLIP!

Introducing....
Just Brew It!
Ok so I am totally LOVING this set and my card....take a look and let me know what you think!
Are those little latte cups not the CUTEST EVER!!!! I just had to use that adorable sentiment and pair it up with a double dose of those die cut cups!!!
I started my card out with a Stitched Rectangular Frame Die card mat of designer paper from DoodleBug Designs~Here Comes Santa Claus.
Next I die cut the cups in kraft, white and matching designer paper so I could paper piece each one. One cup did get the cute new stamped face where I placed a die cut heart on the other one! They were both popped up onto the front of the card just above my stamped sentiment.
The finishing touch for this card was 2 more matching die cut hearts!
LOVE this card!!!

MCT 73rd New Release Sneak Day 1

Good Morning everyone!!
Welcome to the start of the 73rd New Release  sneak peek week with
My Creative Time!
Miss Emma, of course is releasing another FABULOUS set of stamps and dies and I know you are all going to LOVE everything in this release!!!
So lets get started!!

Today we are showcasing the new set~
Hey There Cute-Tea
With the holidays coming up super fast I made a teacher's
gift using this adorable set! Take a look and let me know what you think!
Isn't this a great little gift to give to that tea loving teacher?? Let's take a closer look at the tea bag holder/envelope....
I used 3x3 Fancy Tri-fold Card to make a holder for a tea bag. It fits a tea bag perfectly inside!! I die cut the card using some scrap designer paper from my stash. Once I scored and folded the card, I added some red line tape on 2 sides of the inside flap to make a pocket. That is where my tea bag slides into.
Then for the sentiment, I used the Stitched Zig Zag Dies for the new sentiment from the Hey There Cute-Tea set. I also added the adorable tea cup image which I die cut and colored using my prismacolor pencils.
Some added enamel dots and a small clip finished off the project.
Paired with a large tea cup, this gift is ready to give!

***Sneak Peek giveaway!***

Happiest Wishes On Your Birthday....{MCT Cook N Craft}

Good Morning Everyone and Happy Monday!
Today I am sharing a project for
MCT's Cook -N- Craft, 
its an anything goes post day BUT we also share a favorite recipe.

Fall is my favorite time of year! As the weather cools down, my family moves from cooking on the grill to making yummy soups for dinner.
Today's project is a card using the newest stencil from the recently released Christmas Greetings Kit and one of our FAVORITE winter soups~ Stuffed Pepper Soup
 Lets take a look at my project first!
Birthday cards are always low in my stash so when I saw the new Christmas Greetings Stencil with the mix of snowflakes and polka dots, I knew I wanted to use those for a birthday card.
To make my card, I used just the polka dots and a mix of Tim Holtz distress ink for a fun patterned background of my card. The awesome part of using the stencil, the colors can be coordinating to whatever you want...holiday related...gender related or just themed to match designer paper you use.
I used all ink for this card, matching the present to the background by inking up a scrap piece of paper to die cut the pieces from the Cute Gift Tag Die 
Once the pieces of the present were die cut, I popped
it up onto a circle using the More Stitched Circle Die
Finally, the sentiment on my card comes from the set You Make Life Sweet
A fun and festive birthday card!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now for my recipe.....
Stuffed Pepper Soup
OMG it is so yummy and perfect for a cold/rainy night like we had last night!
This recipe freezes AMAZING and is even better the next reheated!
I highly recommend trying this if you like stuffed peppers! You will LOVE this!

So I hope you have enjoyed my birthday card and yummy recipe!

Want to see more projects?
Make sure you head on over to My Creative Time to see what the rest of the DT made!
I know the inspiration is AWESOME!!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a GREAT day!!

I introduce to you:
"Christmas Greetings Kit"

And here is my inspiration.....
Totally LOVING the new polka dots stencil so I used those to make a CAS Christmas card.
When using the stencil, I taped up the snowflake parts so I didn't mistakenly stamp those while inking my polka dots.
I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink and randomly inked up the dots with the red and green ink.
No set pattern for a fun extra colorful design.
Once I was all inked up, I pulled off the stencil to make sure all the areas I wanted inked were covered.
Next I stamped the sentiment, which happened to fit exactly inside a blank spot on my card in between those fun polka dots!
Moving onto the present, I used the new dies that are part of this kit and die cut the present, and bow using scrap cardstock.
The present was added right above the sentiment.
To finish my card, I popped up the card mat onto a white cardstock A2 size card.

BLOG HOP GIVEAWAY!
