MCT Do Over Thursday~ Happy New Year!

Good Morning everyone and Happy New Year's Eve!

Today is the final day of 2015 and the MCT DT is doing our

"Do Over Thursday" where we remake a past project with some new MCT stamps and dies.

This is the card that I am remaking.....

you can find all the details HERE on how I made this. I LOVE this card but seeing that it is New Years Eve, I thought I would update this one to fit the day :)

Here is my new version of the card....

To make my card I started with a black cardstock A2 size card and layered it with a piece of gold metallic paper and then a white Stitched Rectangular Frame Die piece. Using the Circle Stitching Pattern Die, I added the circles by running it through my big shot.

For my glasses I used an older set that I completely forgot about~Cocktail Party Stitched Dies. I die cut the glasses in a fun glittery black paper and added some gold beverages to the inside...LOL! I wrapped some gold thread to add to the backside of the glasses and then embellished with some gold sequins.

To finish my card off, I stamped my sentiment using the Teeny Tag Holidays stamp set.

Cheers everyone to a wonderful end of 2015 and an awesome 2016!!

So there is my  "Do Over Thursday" card. Make sure to check out more inspiration over on the 

My Creative Time blog!

Thanks so much for stopping in and  I will see you all in 2016!!

Happy New Year~ MCT Made in Minutes

Good Morning everyone!!! 

It is time for another My Creative Time~ Made in Minutes!

With Christmas over for 2015 :(

 I thought I would share a quick and easy 

New Years shaker card....

To make my card I grabbed a piece of MME~Fancy That designer paper that had the pretty gold "polka dots" already on the page. I thought it looked like confetti and perfect for a New Years card. Since we are ringing in 2016, I grabbed the number dies from the Stitched 4x6 Journal Die and die cut them into the designer paper. Next I stamped the sentiment using the Happy Everything set. Before filling my shaker, I did die cut the banner and stamp the "happy" sentiment using the Chocolate Greetings set and placed that aside until I was ready to assemble my card.  And like I start all of my cards, I did use the Stitched Rectangular Frame Die for the card mat.

Now moving onto the shaker part....I am kinda obsessed with using glitter in my shakers lately! I was able to grab some Christmas gold/silver chunky mix from Michaels on clearance that was perfect for my new years card. It is so fun to add to shakers that have small spaces and moves so freely without getting caught in the sides like sequins can.

To make the shaker part, I used one of the More Stitched Rectangular Dies and lined it up with the numbers so I could die cut it into some Fun Foam. I attached it to the back on the card, after covering the numbers with a piece of acetate. Next I poured some glitter into the rectangular space and then sealed it all up again with another piece of acetate. 

My card is all ready to be attached to the kraft cardstock base. One final step~ adding the sentiment banner to the front. I did that by taking the banner and tucking it inside the #2 to then lay across the rest of the numbers.

My card seems like it took longer to make than it actually did...maybe from start to finish 10 minutes?? 

It is a perfect card to mass produce and is sure to WOW anyone receiving it!

So there is my Made in Minutes card. Make sure to check out more inspiration over on the 

My Creative Time blog!

Thanks so much for stopping in and have a GREAT Monday!!

Good Morning
and

Happy New Year!!!!

I can tell 2013 is going to be an AWESOME year!!

That being said I have

 some very exciting news to share!!!

I have been holding this in for a LONG while now and I am bursting at the seams with excitement....

Now I can finally share.....

EEKK!! I am super excited to be a new DT member over at
Trendy Twine!!
I sure LOVE my Trendy Twine and can not wait to share more projects with you all using this beautiful twine...
So for my first project I wanted to share a
"New Year's Card"

CAS and packed with yummy Trendy Twine in 

Midnight

a mix of White, Black and Grey

Here is a close-up of the numbers

I think they look awesome with the twine behind them

What do you think???

Bet you would like to know how to do this...

it is actually very easy....

Using my Cameo I cut the top layer of my card...Just a white piece of card stock with the numbers 2013 arranged by me down the side.

Once that was cut on the reverse side I cut several pieces of twine...laid them side by side to cover the numbers and then taped them all down...making sure they would not shift at all.

So you couldn't see any of the tape or twine in the back I layered my white card stock with black card stock then pop dotted the whole mat up on my black card base.

I finished my card off with some score lines down the side and across the bottom,

added my sentiment from My Creative Time's~Card Sentiments Set

and then a few random gems.

Make sure to hop over to the 
Trendy Twine blog

Plus there is an AWESOME giveaway going on...
one lucky person will win this...

Welcome 2013

I used one of the newer released files from the Silhouette Store

2013 Chevron Card 

designed by Patty Young

and came up with this...

The GREAT thing about this file....It is so easy to make this card

just cut the pieces and glue in the back

That is it!!

I went ahead and added the additional sentiment and banner

Both are from My Creative Time~

Sentiment is from the Card Sentiments set

and the banner is from the Vintage Label dies

Since the silver paper is shiny I used Creative Inspirations Paint

Deliquesce Black Embossing powder to give it that rich look.

(I tried stamping both with Memento and Stazon ink...neither one wanted to look bold and black...all because of the paper)

Finally I added some clear gelly pen doodles to the numbers and chevron pattern..

I think it added alot more to the overall card...

What do you think??

I hope you have enjoyed my project!
