Congrats!!....{MCT 3D Wednesday}

Good Morning and happy hump day everyone!

I am up on the My Creative Time blog today with another
3D Wednesday project!

I hope you are all staying safe and healthy!

Even though we are not making and sharing treats right now with others, I still have a quick and easy graduation treat to share that can easily be made to match your school colors.

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

This cute little lollipop holder was so easy to make. I used The Perfect Match set (sorry it is retired) for the base of the lollipop. After scoring it and adding my lollipop I decorated the outside.

For the numbers I used the current year :) in our areas school colors. For the sentiment, I layered a Strip Sentiment die onto a longer Sentiment Label Die and stamped the sentiment using the Happy for You set.

The adorable die cut grad hat is from the Grad Night set and that was then added to the top of the number.

A simple bow at the bottom completed my sweet grad treat!

Ho! Ho! Ho!....{MCT Made in Minutes}

Good Morning everyone!

It is time for another My Creative Time Made in Minutes post and I have a sweet treat idea that is super easy and fast to make.

I know we haven't gotten past Halloween yet but Christmas time is right around the corner and it is always a busy time of family gatherings, parties and gift giving.

This treat idea would be so fun for table settings, secret santa gifts or classroom party favors.

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

How cute is this Santa treat box?
I used several MCT goodies to put this together BUT it took me less than 15 minutes to do so.
I started out with the Mini Gift Box Die cut using red cardstock, assembled the box and went about die cutting the rest of the pieces.
The Santa belt and buttons are from the Holiday Tags set and those were die cut in black cardstock. I did add some shimmer to the belt buckle for a little extra embellishing.
Next I die cut the smallest of the Sentiment Label Die and stamped my sentiment from the Mini Christmas Greeting set.
The sentiment was then trimmed down at one end and attached to the gift box with some Trendy Twine.

MCT Supplies Used:

Mini Christmas Greetings

Sentiment Label Dies

Holiday Tags

Mini Gift Box Die

So that is my Made in Minutes project. I hope you enjoyed it and remember this project for when you need a gift idea :)
For more inspiration make sure to head over to the MCT blog for more AWESOME MIM project ideas
As always, thanks for stopping by today and have a GREAT Monday!!

Anything is Popsicle and here is my inspiration..... This popsicle is just the cutest right?!?! I wanted to keep my card CAS to showcase that adorable new die!

Then for the sentiment, I used the Sentiment Label Dies and stamped the sentiment off to the side to allow for the popsicle to be placed onto the label. Some matching pearl embellishments all placed onto a Stitched Rectangular Frame Die cut white card stock completed my card.

Good Morning everyone and welcome to another

Anything Goes with My Creative Time!

For my project today, I made a birthday card using the newly released 

Time to Celebrate stamp set.

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

To make my card, I started with a kraft cardstock base, added a layer of white cardstock and then the designer paper die cut with the Stitched Rectangular Frame Die.

For the adorable face, I used the More Stitched Circles and the Scalloped Stitched Circles. I stamped the cute Peachy Keen Stamps face onto the circle and then colored it up with my copics. I added the tear drop from the Showers of Happiness set.

The party hat is from the Party Hat Dies set that I die cut using matching designer paper from Pink Paislee.

Finally for the sentiment, I used the new Time to Celebrate stamp set and I stamped it onto the Sentiment Label Die.

So there is my completed card. I sure hope you like it!!

As always make sure to stop by the MCT blog for more inspiration!!

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

Happy Birthday....{MCT Manly Monday}

Good Morning Everyone!

I hope you all had a great weekend!!!

I am back with a card for My Creative Time's

Manly Monday post!

My son's birthday is tomorrow... he will be 17! OMG I can not believe it!

Time is flying so fast and I just want it all to slow down! We are already starting to plan for college! I am so proud of him and all of his accomplishments~ he is a hard worker and does very well in school, football and his community activities. 

Enough of me bragging...LOL! I made a CAS card to give to him celebrating his birthday.

Manly cards are always a challenge so I kept this one very simple.

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

CAS right? I used a kraft cardstock base and added a layer of white cardstock that I die cut using the largest of the Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies.
I stamped the sentiment, from the Make a Wish set onto the white mat using my MISTI to center it where I wanted.
Next using the Sentiment Label Dies, I die cut 4 banners. I arranged the banner onto the mat for a reference as to where I wanted them and then cut them in half. I did cut them all different lengths so when I taped them onto my card they did not line up exactly the same on the tops.
Once they were cut, I taped them above and below the sentiment making the sentiment the focal point.
To finish off my card, I added some thicker hemp twine around the top and bottom of the sentiment, hiding the cut marks from the banners and adding a manly border around the sentiment.
A simple bow tied off the hemp ribbon and completed my card.

I hope you like my CAS birthday card!
Make sure to head on over the the MCT blog for more inspiration!

Hi friend......{MCT Anything Goes}

Good Morning Everyone!

It is time for another MCT Anything Goes and I am sharing a project using the newly released die~ Stitched Favor Treat Die

This project was made for a friend to just share a sweet treat with but the BEST thing about this new die is you can use it for so many holidays, events, parties...well just about ANYTHING! Just change up the papers and sentiments and you are ready to give this treat!!!

To make my treat box, I used designer paper from Echo Park~ Magical Adventure. After die cutting the Stitched Favor Treat Die I put the box together and placed it aside to complete my tag.
The tag was made using several MCT dies and stamps.
For the circles, I used the Scallop Die from the Mini Stitched Lollipop and topped it with a circle from the More Stitched Circle Dies. The "Hi" sentiment is from the stamp set~ Home Sweet Home
For the "friend" part of the tag, I used the Sentiment Label Dies and made the banner smaller to fit the sentiment from the set, All you need is Coffee (which I actually took only a part of the sentiment)

I attached the sentiment tag to the treat box using some Trendy Twine and my project is ready to give!

So I hope you have enjoyed my treat!

Scary, Scary......{MCT Manly Monday}

Good Morning everyone and welcome to 

My Creative Time's 

Manly Monday!

I have a super cool Halloween card to share today using a stencil technique...take a look

Since this is a manly card, I went monochromatic adding just a hint of color with the orange nuvo crystal drops.
I used the spider web die and made a stencil, inking the image onto my card base. For those who are interested, I will be sharing a tutorial on Thursday using this technique :)
Next I stamped my sentiment onto a sentiment label die and popped it up onto the card front. 
Some black and orange nuvo crystal drops and a bat die cut completed my Halloween card!!
