My Creative Time 40th Release!

This week has been amazing hasn't it? Awesome sneaks of fun new stamps and dies!!!!

Well today you are all going to FLIP!!! I can not wait to show you the new sneaks and then for all you MCT fans to receive these goodies and share your projects!!!

Today the DT will be showcasing projects using the new sets~

Milk Carton Die & Mini Chalkboard Tags

EEEEKKKKK.....yes thats right! An ADORABLE Milk Carton Die!!!

I have 2 projects to share using today's sneaks..so lets take a lookie...

Easter is right around the corner so I thought it would be fun to make this cutie to put into my son's Easter basket.  I used the new Milk Carton Die and some adorable designer paper from My Minds Eye. Then for the sentiment, I die cut the Scallop & Stitched Circles, stamped my sentiment using the All Around Holidays set and then added that cutie bunny die to the center. I couldn't help but add a small pom pom for the bunny tail and closed the milk carton off with a mini clothes pin (that happened to be the PERFECT color to match my designer paper)

For my next Milk Carton, I got into the Mardi Gras festivities! Purple, green and yellow and a whole lot of fun sweet treats fill this! For this one, I used the new Mini Chalkboard Tags (which has another tag die...Whoo Hoo) and stamped my sentiment onto it. Then with some copic markers, I colored in the symbol on the top. I attached the tag to my milk carton with another mini clothes pin, added some Grape Limeade Trendy Twine and embellished with some bling.

Onto my project....

On Tuesday was our annual Teacher Appreciation Luncheon which myself and another mom coordinate. It is the event that the teachers wait all school year for! We get volunteers from other parents to supply dishes and set lunch up buffet style. Well can you guess the theme for this year....LOL!
One of the "extra" things I do to make the event more special is make all the decorations and party favors...so here they are.....

Since the theme was Mardi Gras I wanted the decorations for the tables to be interactive. The atmosphere is very laid back during the lunch and the teachers tend to hang out, eat and chat so I made these 3 mask that they can pick up and put on.

This is the how the mask looked on the table...I added bead necklaces, coins and feathers as well.

Here is a close-up of the table...doesn't the mask look awesome on the table???

This is the invite that I made to post in the teacher's lounge

And finally these are the treats that the teachers left with. My husband and I ended up dipping 170 pretzels.....and believe it or not, they took next to no time to complete. 

Talk about a HUGE hit!!!

So there it is....

What do you think???

I sure hope you have enjoyed my project and will play along with us over at the

Remember this challenge will run for 2 weeks so lots of time to get those Anything Goes projects in!!
