Happy Birthday.....{MCT Manly Monday}

Good Morning everyone 
and 
Happy Halloween!!!
It is time for another 
My Creative Time's  Manly Monday!
Today I am sharing a birthday card that I made with the newer set~All is Calm along with some new to me designer paper from Lawn Fawn. 
I am totally in LOVE with this card!!
Seeing that it is hunting season and my husband is a hunter (but hasn't been out in years due to his work schedule) he was the inspiration behind my card. 
To make my card I used several MCT dies and the sentiment stamp from Greatest Handyman.The designer paper from Lawn Fawn was the perfect masculine color combo for my deer die cut.
Embellished with Trendy Twine and my new favorite embellishments~the NUVO drops my card is ready for the special birthday.

Baseball Ornament....{MCT Favorite Stamp of the Month REDUX}

Good Morning everyone!!
Today we are featuring another "My Favorite Stamp/Die of the Month" redux.
This month's set is GRAND SLAM
This month we are featuring one of my FAVES "Grand Slam".   
  If this set has been  on YOUR wishlist, you can pick it up HERE at a discounted price!  This FUN baseball set will be at a special marked down price for the entire month of October!  This special will end on October 31, 2016 at midnight PST.

Here is the project I had created using this FUN set!
I am starting to get into the holiday season and made my baseball loving son an ornament for his tree. 
I personalized it with his name and number and then attached a tag using the Stamp of the Month~ Grand Slam.
For the tag, I used the circle sentiment and stamped it onto a stitched circle die. Next I stamped the baseball using a red ink onto the center of the sentiment.
The circle die was layered onto a scalloped circle and then attached to the ornament using a pear pin.
A quick and fun way to add a sentiment tag to my project.

Some added berries to the pines finished my card.

Trick or Treat...{MCT Tag It Tuesday}

Good Morning everyone and welcome to another 
Tag it Tuesday with My Creative Time!!
Since Halloween is fast approaching, I thought I would make a cute treat container that would super fun to give to a trick or treater.
How adorable is this little paint can?
To make my project I took the paint can, filled it with some candy corn and added a cutie pumpkin face to the front using some vinyl.
Next I grabbed the Holiday Tags set and die cut the tag using white and black cardstock. The sentiment was then stamped using the Spooky Time set and attached to the paint can handle with some orange May Arts ribbon.
My project was complete but I felt it was still missing something so I went ahead and added a stem and leaves. The stem is actually the smallest of the Sitched Squares Inside & Out set which I scored and folded to make the stem. Then for the leaves I used the Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves Die attaching the leaves to the front of the stem.
Now my project is complete and I think so super adorable!
