Celebrate Today...{MCT 3D Wednesday}

Good Morning everyone and Happy Hump Day!
It is time for another 3D Wednesday with My Creative Time and today I am sharing a project in celebration with the 4th of July tomorrow!
Take a look at my 3D project and let me know what you think...

You all know how much I LOVE making 3D projects and when Miss Emma released the Stitched Mini Bag Die I know that this would be my go to die for treats!
This bag is so super easy to put together and the decorating is endless!
To make my project I die cut the mini bag in kraft cardstock and then stamped the front with the stars from the My Little Firecracker set.
Next I die cut 2 stars using the Bunch of Stitched Stars set and again stamped the stars onto each die cut.
The stars were popped up onto the front of the mini bag leaving room for my sentiment.
The sentiment, also from the My Little Firecracker set was stamped onto a Ribbon End Banner  and added to the front of the mini bag.
To finish off my project, I added some Stars & Stripes Trendy Twine

I hope you like my inspiration using the Stitched Mini Bag Die.

As always, thanks for much for stopping by! 

Make sure to head over to the MCT Blog for more inspiration!!

Have a GREAT Wednesday everyone!!

MCT Made In Minutes!

Good Morning everyone and 

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

It is time for another MCT Made in Minutes~ a day where we share projects that are quick and easy to make.

I have 2 projects to share using the newly released 

Stitched Mini Bag Die

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

I just LOVE this new die! So many great projects can be made and you all know how much I love making treats so here are 2 more I made using this die.
The first project I made for the upcoming 4th of July and did you know that a mini Original Gourmet Lollipop fits inside perfectly making this a another fun lollipop holder idea.
I decorated this project using designer paper from Doodle Bug Designs and added the sentiment from the set My Little Firecracker onto a star from the Bunch of Stitched Stars set.
2 more smaller stars from the same set in red and blue finished the decorating of the mini bag, a lollipop inside and a white Trendy Twine bow closed it all up.

The next mini bag uses designer paper from My Minds Eye and the stamp/die set~ A Sunny Hello.
I used the sun die from that set, the adorable mini face stamp and some chalk/white gel pen to put the sun together. She was then popped up onto the front of the mini bag after I stamped the sentiment onto the bottom part of the bag.
To embellish the bag little more, I added the small heart also from the same set in a matching pink color that I chalked the cheeks with.
I tied this bag all together with some black Trendy Twine, this time adding the bow in the front of the bag.

So there you have it, 2 quick and easy treat ideas using the new Stitched Mini Bag Die.
If you haven't already grabbed this die, you really should!
Thanks so much for stopping by today and have a GREAT Monday!

Happy 4th....{MCT 3D Wednesday}

Good Morning everyone and 

Happy 4th of July!

Today is MCT's 3D Wednesday and to celebrate I made some red white and blue lollipop holders!

Take a look at my festive holiday treats and let me know what you think...

I love the Mini Stitched Lollipop & Scallop Die! This die can be used for so many different holidays and decorated for an endless amount of party themes.
For my project I used some DoodleBug Design paper in a festive star pattern and die cut the lollipop holder.
I grabbed some matching cardstock in red, white and blue and die cut the scallop shape in the red cardstock. I layered each scallop with a white circle die cut from the More Stitched Circle Dies set.
Keeping in theme of the stars, I used the Mini Lolly Add On set and blue cardstock which got layered onto the scallop.
Finally before assembling the lollipop holders, I stamped my sentiment using the set~ My Little Firecracker.
Once the lollipop holder was assembled, I added an Original Gourmet Lollipop and tied the holder closed with some Trendy Twine.

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

To My Little Firecracker....{MCT Made in Minutes}

Good Morning everyone and welcome to 

Made in Minutes 

with 

My Creative Time!

If you are new to my blog MIM is where we create something that could be created quickly or mass produced.

I love the new Pretty Treat Topper and since the 4th of July is just around the corner, I thought I would share a quick and easy celebration gift. **Remember if you are making something similar using Sparklers to be CAREFUL! Children should be supervised if playing with these**

Here is a closeup of the topper.

I used white cardstock as the base and added a layer of blue star designer paper.

The stars are from the 3 Star Stitched Dies set and I die cut those out onto red cardstock.

The sentiment, from the set~ My Little Firecracker, was stamped onto a Stitched Zig Zag Die.

Some random pearls completed my party favor.

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!!!!

Happy 4th....{MCT To Die For}

Good morning everyone!
I am sharing a card today for My Creative Time's
"Too Die For Tuesday"

This is where we share ideas on how to stretch your dies.

With the 4th of July right around the corner I made a mini shaker using last releases  set~ PinWheel Centers

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

Shakers are so much fun to make and add such a different element to cards. They don't even have to be a large shaker piece, like the one I added to my card to add a fun twist to a card.

To make my card, I used the largest star die from the Pinwheel Centers set and die cut it into a Ribbon End Banner.

Since I wanted that banner piece to be larger than the rest, I stretched my die to extend the banner piece.  My star was die cut into the banner and then filled with red and white seed beads.

The red and white banner pieces were cut using the same banner set, making them the sizes smaller and then arranged onto my card mat.

The whole card mat, made from a piece of white cardstock and layered with a piece of designer cardstock die cut using the Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies & More set was then popped up onto my A2 card base.

The sentiment, from My Little Firecracker was stamped onto the front of my card and some hemp cord was added with a bow for the finishing touch.

What do you think of my card? I hope I gave you another idea on how to use those awesome MCT dies!!!

To My Little Firecracker.......{MCT Anything Goes}

Good Morning everyone!

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

Anything Goes Thursday!

Since the 4th of July is just around the corner, I made a cute celebration card using the newly released set~ Scalloped Stitched Circle

For my card I used designer paper from Doodlebug Designs~Patriotic Parade and even pulled out my prismacolor pencils!
To make this card I started with an A2 size card base, added a layer of white cardstock and then die cut the designer paper using the Stitched Rectangular Frame Die.
Next I die cut the circle and then the matching scalloped circle using the new set~ Scalloped Stitched Circles. The circle die cut was through the designer paper, the scalloped circle was with some matching navy cardstock from my stash.
The sentiment, from the set~ My Little Firecracker was stamped inside the circle and then the matching firecracker was stamped and colored using my prismacolor pencils.
Some added star die cuts from the 3 Star Stitched Dies were added for some extra details.
So there is my completed card....what do you think???

MCT 68th New Release Sneak Day 3.....{Happy 4th of July}

Good Morning !

It is Day 3 of sneaks for the

68th New Release from

My Creative Time!

Boy is this week flying by!!! But I sure hope you are enjoying all these awesome sneaks from the DT!

Today we are showcasing this releases FREEBIE die~ Pinwheel Centers along with the new Small & Medium Stitched Pinwheel Dies

and here is the project I made using these sets...

How super fun are these new dies!!!! For my project I made some 4th of July wands/party favors. The designer paper I used for both pinwheels is from DoodleBug Designs~ Patriotic Parade. I have a close-up of both so you can see...

This pinwheel is the smaller one...so super CUTE! See that center star..that is the FREEBIE (well one of the dies in the freebie set). To make this one, I die cut the pinwheel 2 times, putting it together with the sparkle brad and star center. Before attaching it to my polka dot straw, I attached some long white and blue ribbon. The whole piece (pinwheel, brad and ribbon) was then placed through a small hole on the straw to hold it all together.
For the sentiment, I use the Smallest of the Ribbon End Banner and stamped the sentiment from the Teeny Tag Holidays set.

Here is the larger of the 2 pinwheels. You can see the difference in the way the brad looks through the larger star center.  I assembled this one the same as the smaller one, used the Ribbon End Banners for the sentiment and stamped the sentiment from the set~ My Little Firecracker.
I can not get over how easy these are to put together and how fun they are!!!!!
I can not wait to make more projects with these!!

MCT 56th New Release Sneak Day 3

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

56th New Release from My Creative Time!

I am hoping you are all LOVING this new release as much as I am and can not wait to share what we have the next 2 days!

 Today's sneak include the new die set.....

Sentiment Label Dies

And here is my inspiration using this die!

With the 4th of July quickly approaching, I thought I would use those banner dies to make a USA Flag.
I used the smallest banner from the new set and die cut 2 of each color, white and red for the stripes.
Next I used one of the square dies as the blue section of the flag. This is where I heat embossed my sentiment onto as well.
Some red, white and blue sequins completed my card.
