Today's sneak is this releases FREEBIE die

Mini Tag Dies 2 

and here is the card I made using it......

With Christmas fast approaching, I thought making another Christmas card was the way to go.

I wanted to keep my card on the simple side, so I went through my stash of MCT goodies and found a holiday sentiment for the new Mini Tag Dies! This one is from the Teeny Tag Holiday's set and fits the new dies perfectly!

I used both layers of the new die and then popped it up onto the front of my card.

For the Christmas Tree, I used the Seasonal Greetings set and added some ornaments using the Boughs of Holly set. The ornaments are hung on the tree with some silver thread, which was wrapped around the die cut. Love the way that looks on the tree~BTW :)

To finish off my card, I added a silver star to the top of the tree using the Shine Like the Stars set.

MCT "5 Days of Christmas" Day 4 ...{Holiday Gift Card Holder}

Good Morning everyone and welcome to 

Day 4 of 

My Creative Time's 5 Days of Christmas!

Each day we will be sharing projects, with a theme to help you get into the holiday spirit.

All of our projects will be simple ones that you can recreate in a flash.

For Day 4 we are all sharing Holiday Gift Card Holder projects

and here is what I made...

I love this Gift Card holder and they are so fun to decorate and give out!

I used the gift card holder with some beautiful designer paper from Echo Park. I wanted to use that reindeer head so I turned him into Rudolf with his bright nose and matched it with the "merry and bright". He was then popped up onto the front of a scalloped rosette and then the whole piece was adhered to my designer paper.

An added Fun Vertical Greeting and some Nuvo Crystal drops completed my gift card!

Warmest Holiday Wishes....{MCT Inspire Me Wednesday}

Good Morning and welcome to another

Inspire Me Wednesday with My Creative Time!

My inspiration today came from  Pinterest and the fact that Christmas (I know, I'm talking about it already and its only the beginning of November) is right around the corner.

I love giving little gifts to my boy's teachers for the holidays and even though it may be a small gift of some chocolate or a gift card for a cup of coffee, I love making the packaging just as special as the gift itself.

There are ton's of ideas on using Muslin Bags ~mine are from State line Bag Company and how you can decorate them with some simple stamping.

Take a look at my project....

To make my project, I took a Muslin Bag, stamped it using Stazon Jet Black ink with the sentiment from the newly releases set~ You Deserve a Break.

Yes I would and could have been happy leaving it just like that but I wanted to add a little more embellishing to my bag. I die cut some of the holly leave using wool felt and then hot glued them to my muslin bag. Guaranteed to stay on so the recipient can easily regift this bag if they wanted :)

Finally I added a gift tag to the bag using the Holiday Tags stamp/die set. I did add some more holly leaves so that the whole project matched.

Filled this cutie bag with some crinkle paper and a gift card and my gift is ready to give.

Believe in the Magic of Christmas....{MCT Inspire Me Wednesday}

Good Morning and welcome to another

Inspire Me Wednesday with My Creative Time!

My inspiration today came from  Pinterest.  

I found this cute Christmas card  HERE and used the inspiration to make my own version of a Christmas card using all MCT stamps and dies. 

Take a look...

So I am totally in LOVE with the new deer die cut!! I die cut him out with kraft cardstock and then added the grainy wood background onto him for some extra details. A shiny red nose and he was placed aside as I finished the rest of my card.
I used beautiful wintery themed paper from Carta Bella and the Bunch of Fun Circle dies for the focal point. 
For the sentiment~from Boughs of Holly, I stamped the "believe" onto a rectangular frame and then make my own layer for the back. I wanted it to pop alittle more against the white circle.
Finally the remaining sentiment was stamped onto a banner die and my card was ready to assemble.
Lots of popped up pieces gives the card some fun added dimension.

MCT 50th New Release Sneak Day 1

Good Morning and welcome to Day 1 of sneaks for the 

50th New Release from My Creative Time!!!

Today the DT will be showcasing the new die set~

Mini Greeting Dies

This set is perfect for those go to die cut sentiments and I know you are all going to LOVE it!

'Tis the season for gift giving so for my project today I made a coffee inspired card with a place inside for a gift card. 

I started with a kraft cardstock base, added a layer of white cardstock, then some designed paper from My Minds Eye~Cozy Christmas using the Stitched Rectangular Frame Die. Next using the newly released Stitched Postage Frame Dies (LOVE this set!!) I added another layer of designer paper from the same set. For the adorable coffee cup, I used the We're Better Together stamp and dies and paper pieced the cup with more of the matching designer paper. I added some embellishment to the cup using the Boughs of Holly dies and some stickles for extra sparkle.

Finally the "enjoy" die cut is from the new set~Mini Greeting Dies. Isn't the font and size just awesome?!?!

The inside (which I didn't snap a pic of) had a place for hold a gift card....I used the Stitched Gift Card Pocket Die .
