MCT Tag it Tuesday

Good Morning and welcome to 

Tag it Tuesday w/My Creative Time!

Today the DT will be sharing tag projects using of course My Creative Time stamps and dies!

I have to admit that I am not much of a flower girl....BUT I am LOVING the new Jr. Rolled Flower Dies that Emma just released and I couldn't wait to use them again, this time for my tag! So for today's tag, I used the larger one as the focal point of my CAS tag and paired it with the simple sentiment from the newly released Love YOU Bunches stamp and die set!

I went with a vintage feel for my tag, adding some inking to the edges of my flower and leaves as well as using the Scripty background over top of my designer paper. 

Isn't this flower beautiful??I ended up adding 2 layers of leaves to the underside of the flower as well as curling the flower leaves to "fill"out the flower. I hot glued the flower and leaves to the top layer of my tag after wrapping some natural colored hemp twine several times around the tag. Finally I stamped my sentiment onto the tag and added some finishing touches in the form of some gold enamel dots, more help twine and some beautiful cream colored ribbon to the tag top.

Jr. Rolled Flower Dies

MCT 41st New Release Sneak Day 3

  Good Morning and welcome to Day 3 of sneaks for the new

My Creative Time 41st New Release!
You are in for another treat with today's sneaks! 

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

Love You Bunches & Jr. Rolled Flower Dies

I have to admit I am not one to add flowers to my cards BUT I just LOVE playing with Miss Emma's Rolled Flower Dies and I am pretty impressed with myself on how my card turned out :)
To make my card, I wanted to keep the focal point on the new Jr. Rolled Flowers so I picked out some designer paper from My Minds Eye to use as my card mat. I die cut it using the lg Stitched Rectangular Frame and then added a banner flag using the Tag Die Layer. Next I die cut 2 circles, stamping my sentiment onto the smaller one from the sneaky peek set~ Love you Bunches. I added those to the front of my card, offsetting the smaller circle a bit to leave room for my flowers.
Putting my card mat aside for a bit, I die cut 3 of new flowers~ 2 of the smallest ones and 1 of the next size.  I rolled one of the small ones tighter than the next one and then let the largest one be a bit bigger. I wanted a graduating look with the roses. I used my hot glue gun to hold the roses together and then glued them onto the card mat~ again with my hot glue gun. I wanted to add some extra sparkle to the plain cardstock flowers, so using my Yellow Wink of Stella pen, I colored all the petals. Boy does it give a gorgeous sparkle. Finally my roses needed some leaves so I used the Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves Dies for the greenery. Some random black and gold enamel dots and my pretty card was all done :)

This to That Challenge #6~ Flowers and Bling

Good Morning everyone!

It is time for another This to That Challenge over at Cher's Studio featuring

The Digi Bistro

Carley from The Real iCarley is our blog host for this week and all the details for this weeks challenge can be found over on her adorable blog! Make sure you head over there (after looking at my card) for all the details, the other DT's projects and to link up your project.

This weeks challenge is Flowers and Bling

The DT are all using flowers from The Digi Bistro and Cher has a whole bunch of adorable flowers to choose from.

Our card could be for any occasion~birthday, fall, thank you....anything

BUT

we had to add some bling AND make our flower 3D.

Here is what I came up with.

I wanted to design a CAS card to showcase the flower.

I used the Simply Tweet set

and cut the flower out at 4".

I then broke the flower apart and cut 8 more petals to use for the 3D flower.

Here's a closeup of the flower.

I used white cardstock, sprayed it with silver and purple glimmer mist (my Bling) as well as inked the edges with purple ink.

The petals are held together with a purple glittery brad (also my Bling)

This is the video I used to make my flower. Love the way it came out :)

So I hope you like my card and will play along with us this week.

Remember you do not have to

~use a file from The Digi Bistro

~cards can be combined with stamps or die cuts

~if you dont own any 3D flowers consider purchasing a file from The Digi Bistro

I know you will love all Cher's files~ I know I do :)

Thanks for stopping by and have a GREAT day :)
