Thanks for being so HANDY!..{MCT Manly Monday}

Good morning friends!

Its my turn to post for MCT for Manly Monday and I have a quick and easy gift perfect for the handy man in your life.

Take a look at my project and let me know what you think...

If you haven't grabbed the new Gift Card Gift Box die yet, you really need to for the upcoming holiday season! 
For my project today, I made another gift card holder using the awesome new Gift Card Gift Box die. I die cut and put it together using some designer paper I had in my stash.
For the tag, I used the Made with Love dies and die cut each layer in kraft and white cardstock. Using the sentiment from the Greatest Handyman set, I stamped it onto the tag.
I also added the cute manly mustache stamp from the All Around Everything set above the sentiment which filled up the rest of the tag.
To finish off my project, I added some kraft trendy twine to attach the tag to the gift box.

 I appreciate you taking the time to stop by today! Make sure to check out the rest of the inspiration over on the MCT blog!
Have a GREAT Monday everyone!!!

Sending You Big Thanks...{MCT Thoughtful Tuesday}

Good morning friends and welcome to another 

MCT Thoughtful Tuesday!

Today the DT is showcasing projects with a thank you theme and for my project I used the newly released Gift Card Gift Box Die

take a look at my project and let me know what you think....

Giving gift card gifts is surely a way to say thanks for many different reasons. While going through my MCT stamps and dies, I came across the Fun Notes set and pulled the sentiment from that to pair it up with the "thanks" from the Happy Thoughts set.
Both sentiments were added to the belly band which is part of the Stitched Belly Band Dies set and was wrapped around my gift box.
For a little extra embellishing, I added a matching flower using the Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves Dies and then for the middle I added an enamel dot in a pearl color very similar to my designer paper.
If you have not grabbed this new Gift Card Gift Box die yet, you really need to! This die makes giving gift cards that much more special!!!

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by today! Make sure to check out the rest of the inspiration over on the MCT blog!
Have a GREAT Tuesday everyone!!!

For my inspiration I get to showcase the adorable new Reindeer Lollipop Holder Die which I paired up the with new Gift Card Gift Box Die.

Take a look at my project...

To make my project, I used the Gift Card Gift Box Die for the base and cut it out in designer polka dot paper. The box was assembled and put aside while I put the reindeer together.

He was cut using kraft cardstock and only the face of the lollipop die was used.

I did add enamel to the eyes and nose for some extra texture as well as embellished him with some holly leaves from the Holiday Tags set.

I attached him to the front of the gift box, also adding a bow in Trendy Twine to his head.

The sentiment, also from the Holiday Tags set was stamped onto the smallest of the Stitched Fun Ticket Die. The tag fits perfectly on the gift box and was placed right between the reindeers antlers.

Another cluster of hollys was placed onto the ticket and that completed my project.

A really cute way to dress up the gift box die using that adorable reindeer lollipop holder.

Now for the entire release...

Ho! Ho! Ho!....{MCT Made in Minutes}

Good Morning everyone!

It is time for another My Creative Time Made in Minutes post and I have a sweet treat idea that is super easy and fast to make.

I know we haven't gotten past Halloween yet but Christmas time is right around the corner and it is always a busy time of family gatherings, parties and gift giving.

This treat idea would be so fun for table settings, secret santa gifts or classroom party favors.

Take a look and let me know what you think.....

How cute is this Santa treat box?
I used several MCT goodies to put this together BUT it took me less than 15 minutes to do so.
I started out with the Mini Gift Box Die cut using red cardstock, assembled the box and went about die cutting the rest of the pieces.
The Santa belt and buttons are from the Holiday Tags set and those were die cut in black cardstock. I did add some shimmer to the belt buckle for a little extra embellishing.
Next I die cut the smallest of the Sentiment Label Die and stamped my sentiment from the Mini Christmas Greeting set.
The sentiment was then trimmed down at one end and attached to the gift box with some Trendy Twine.

MCT Supplies Used:

Mini Christmas Greetings

Sentiment Label Dies

Holiday Tags

Mini Gift Box Die

So that is my Made in Minutes project. I hope you enjoyed it and remember this project for when you need a gift idea :)

As always, thanks for stopping by today and have a GREAT Monday!!

Happy Pumpkin Spice Season....{MCT Weird Holiday}

Good Morning everyone and welcome to another
Weird Holiday post for My Creative Time.

For my holiday I chose International Coffee Day which was actually celebrated yesterday October 1st.

The unofficial holiday celebrates one of the most popular beverages in the world - coffee. 

Take a look at my card celebrating this holiday...

Fall is my favorite time of the year and with the cooler weather comes PUMPKINS! I just LOVE pumpkin spice coffee so my card was focused around that yummy beverage!
To make my card, I pulled out my copic markers and made a pumpkin background coloring all the pumpkins in a two tone orange color.
I layered the Scalloped Stitched Circles in white and kraft cardstock for my focal point and added my sentiment and that adorable mini coffee cup.
To embellish my card, I used the newly released leaves from the pumpkin lollipop and cute pumpkin tag sets and added them around the scalloped stitched circles
Some Nuvo enamel dots completed my card.

My Creative Time Supplies Used:
Stitched Rectangular Frame Die
Just Brew It
Scalloped Stitched Circles
Gobble Gobble
Cute Pumpkin Tag Die
Pumpkin Lollipop Holder Die

So there is my inspiration....What did you think of my card?? I hope you enjoyed it!
As always thanks so much for stopping by my blog!
Make sure to head over the MCT blog for more Weird Holiday inspiration projects!
Have a GREAT Tuesday!!!
