Thank You!....{MCT Gift Card Giving}

Good Morning everyone!

It is my turn to share a project on the MCT blog and today's theme is

Gift Card Giving!

Take a look at my gift card holder and let me know what you think...

With the end of the school year quickly approaching here I wanted to share a fun gift card idea that can be whipped up for all those special teachers.

To make my gift card holder, I used the Embossed Gift Card holder die for the base, cut in kraft cardstock. I added a layer of "teacher inspired" pattern paper onto the front of the gift card holder where I added the adorable die cut apple. The apple is from the Love to Learn set and was adhered onto a Stitched Circle die.
Before adding the apple focal point I added my gift inside and then tied it with a piece of natural hemp twine.
The apple was then popped up onto the front of the gift card holder.
For the sentiment, I used the Fun Vertical Greeting set.
A super sweet decorated gift card holder that again can be mass produced for all your kiddo's teachers.

My Creative Time Products used:

Love to Learn

Fun Vertical Greetings

Embossed Gift Card Holder

More Stitched Circles

So I hope you have enjoyed my project! As always I appreciate you stopping by for Gift Card Giving Thursday

Thanks so much for stopping by today and have a GREAT Thursday!

BOO!... {MCT 3D Wednesday}

Good Morning everyone and welcome to another

My Creative Time 3D Wednesday!

Today I am sharing a Halloween treat using the newly released Ghost Lollipop Holder Die "Boo!" die along with several other MCT dies.

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

Hopefully you all got a chance to hop and shop for the 48 hour flash sale that happened this past weekend where Miss Emma released the adorable new Ghost Lollipop Holder Die. I love that cute die but instead of making another ghost holder, I used the "Boo!" sentiment and paired it with the Pretty Treat Topper die.
That super CUTE pumpkin is from the Spooky & Creepy Night set and I added the small leaf using the Love to Learn set.
I finished my project by adding some matching enamel dots and a small Trendy Twine bow.
Filled with some chocolate nuggets and my treat is ready to give!!

As always, thanks for stopping by to check out my project!
Make sure to head over to the MCT blog for more 3D projects!
Have a GREAT Wednesday!!

A Note of Appreciation.....{MCT Anything Goes}

Good Morning everyone and welcome to another

Anything Goes with My Creative Time!

It is back to school time~ my kiddos start on Wednesday 9/5 so in getting prepared for those teacher gifts, I made a note holder using the MCT die set~

Note Card Holder Die

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

If you haven't grabbed this die yet, you really need to! Its awesome for those mini post it notes and so fun to embellish for all kinds of projects!
I used the holder and die cut it using some green cardstock. I did add the circle center also from that die set for a spot to pop up my apple die which come from the Love to Learn set.
The sentiment was added to the bottom corner using the You're All Write set and then closed up with a simple hemp twine bow.
The perfect little holder for that special teacher.

As always, thanks for stopping by to check out my project!
Make sure to head over to the MCT blog for more Anything Goes projects!
Have a GREAT Thursday!!

To My Bunny.....{MCT Whatever Wednesday}

Good Morning everyone!!

Welcome to another Whatever Wednesday post with My Creative Time!

I am super excited about my project today and hope you love it as much as I do!

These cuties are so fun to make and would be adorable for a little class treat or office gift for coworkers for Easter.

And the best part...they are made with 100% My Creative Time stamps and dies!

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

So aren't these adorable??? Each treat holds a single Hershey Nugget chocolate and the sentiment on the tag can be customized with so many fun MCT stamps!!!

Here is how I made this...

I started my project by die cutting 2 of the new Chunky Tag Dies, second largest of the dies and shown below in the picture. I scored each tag 5/8" from the base.  Once scored, I placed a piece of the chocolate inside and taped the 2 dies together, making sure there is enough room to hold the chocolate in place. 

Next using the More Scalloped Stitched Oval Dies I cut out my ears.
Each piece of the oval, the inside pink part and the scalloped white part need to be cut in half after die cutting to make a set of ears. They are then attached inside the front part of the tag die.

For the adorable nose on my bunnies I used the tiny pencil tip die from the Love to Learn set. It is so fun finding new ways to use dies for different projects!

Finally using the smallest of the new Chunky Tag Die and the sentiment from Teeny Tag Holidays, I stamped it onto kraft cardstock. The tag was attached using some Trendy Twine after punching a small hole in both the front and back of the mini candy holder.

So there is my project! What do you think??

I hope you will give this a try for your little Easter Bunnies!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Have a GREAT hump day!!

Happy Pumpkin Day...{MCT Whatever Wednesday}

Good Morning everyone and welcome to

Whatever Wednesday
with

My Creative Time!

Today I have a Halloween Treat project to share that is perfect for class parties, friends or just to put in your little ones lunch.

Everything I used for my sucker holder is made using MCT stamps and dies!

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

Didn't this turn out adorable?
To make my project, I started out with The Perfect Match die and folded and scored additional lines to fit around my sucker. Next using the Stitched Fun Ticket Dies I stamped my sentiment which is from the new Spooky & Creepy Night
That cute pumpkin is also from the new Spooky & Creepy Night set but I added the small leaf to the top of the pumpkin using the die from the Love to Learn set.
Finished off with a matching orange bow from my stash and my project is all complete.

So what do you think???

I hope you like my project!

MCT 70th New Release Sneak Day 2

Good Morning and welcome back to

Day 2 of sneaks for the

MCT 70th New Release!!!

Wasn't yesterdays sneaks just AMAZING???

Well today we have another fun stamp/die set to showcase which is PERFECT for Halloween~

Spooky & Creepy Night

and here is the fun project I made using this set.....

I love Halloween and all the fun projects and treats to make. This new set is sure to be a MUST have for this holiday season!
I used the cute new pumpkin die, face stamp and sentiment to make my lollipop holder.
To make my project, I used the Mini Stitched Lollipop & Scallop Die and die cut out using some designer paper from Recollections~ Boo Paper Pad. 
Next I die cut the new pumpkin using some scrap orange cardstock and then stamped the cute face from the new  Spooky & Creepy Night.
I did add that green leaf to the top of the pumpkin using the Love to Learn set~ it is actually the leaf for the apple but it works PERFECTLY for this pumpkin too!!
Moving onto the sentiment, I used the coffee sleeve die from the Coffee Break set to stamp onto. It is one of my favorites for sentiments on the Mini Lollipop Die, it just seems to fit great!
I assembled all the parts of my project, added a mini Original Gourmet lollipop and tied it all together with some Totally Brown Trendy Twine!

Just a Note....{MCT Tag it Tuesday}

Good Morning everyone!!

It is time for another Tag It Tuesday with My Creative Time
and I am sharing a fun back to school tag using the newest release Die set~ Stitched Zig Zag Dies

Take a look.....

I found the cutest mini post it notes a while back and just recently re-found them while cleaning out my desk. The new Stitched Zig Zag die (medium size) fit perfectly onto the front so I turned it into a tag for my post its.

Using the Zig Zag Die, I taped off the outsides so my stamping of the paper would stay inside the stitched section.

I used the Get Schooled stamp set and added my paper background. I grabbed the Many Greetings stamp set and stamped the "just a note" sentiment.
That cutie heart is also part of the stitched zig zag die set and fit perfectly above my sentiment.

Moving onto one of my favorite dies~ that fun pencil from the Love to Learn set. I die cut all the pieces, assembled the pencil and then popped it up onto the front of my tag.

The finishing touches to my tag was to wrap some Totally Red Trendy Twine around the notepad and tie my tag onto it with a simple bow.

I hope you like my project!!!

Make sure you head on over to My Creative Time to see what the rest of the DT made!

I know the inspiration is AWESOME!!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a GREAT Tuesday!!!

4 U Teacher.....{MCT Anything Goes!}

Good Morning everyone!

I am sharing a project today for My Creative Time's

Anything Goes Thursday!

School is starting for many next month so for my project today I used the newly released Stitched Square Box Die to make an adorable teacher gift.

How adorable is this??
To make my treat box, I started by die cutting the square box using white cardstock. Once both of the parts were cut, I used the Get Schooled stamp set and inked up (Tim Holtz Salty Ocean & Candied Apple) the white cardstock to look like lined paper.
That cute apple comes from the Love to Learn set, and each part was die cut using scrap cardstock. The apple was then popped up onto the front of the box.
The sentiment, from Chocolate Greetings was stamped onto the box next. 
After everything was on the box, I assembled it up and tied a green ribbon to the top.

This was so simple to make and would be so fun to hand out on the first day of school.

Want to see more projects?

Make sure you head on over to My Creative Time to see what the rest of the DT made!

I know the inspiration is AWESOME!!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a GREAT day!!

My boys still have a few more days of school so this set came in VERY handy!!

Since these are for teachers, I pulled out some school inspired sets to add to the new Just a Note stamp/die set.
I used the new mini tabbed note card die and added some lined designer card stock.
For some extra texture on the bottom of my note card, I used the paper border die~ so fun!
The sentiment was stamped onto the front of the designer paper and then I added the adorable die cut apple popped up.
A simple red pearl enamel dot completed my mini note card.
