MCT "5 Days of Christmas" Day 2 ...{Holiday Treat Holder}

Good Morning everyone and welcome to 
Day 2 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 2 we are all sharing Holiday Treat Holder projects!
My favorite!
Here are the adorable Mini Lollipop Holders I made.....

I went with some non traditional Christmas colors for my project today. More along the lines of a winter theme. I found this beautiful snowflake designer paper that I die cut using the Mini Stitched Lollipop Die. I also used the Scallop die and the coordinating paper that comes with the die set.
I stamped my sentiment onto the designer paper and then went ahead and die cut 2 of the cute santa hats from the Santa Suit Dies set.
They were both popped up onto the scallop die cut and then attached to the front of the Lollipop die.
I grabbed 2 of the mini Original Gourmet Lollipops that fit PERFECTLY into these treats and closed it all up with some white crinkle ribbon. These are ready to give out and make a fun holiday party favor!

 Good Morning everyone!
I am up on the Trendy Twine blog 

  to share a sweet Valentine's Day project using the featured products of the month~

Kraft Red Trendy Twine and the Kraft Tags with Metal Rims

Giving treats especially on Valentines Day is so fun, especially with yummy Kisses!

For my project I used the 1x8  Candy Tube and filled it with about 12 red wrapped kisses. 

Next I wanted my tag to be more on the simple side so I used a heart die (My Creative Time~Stitched Heart Layering Dies) to cut out the center of my tag, filled it with the Kraft Red Trendy Twine and then stamped my sentiment (My Creative Time~Chocolate Greetings)

To attach the tag to my candy tube, I wrapped more Kraft Red Trendy Twine around the top of the tube several times and then tied it all into a bow.

Products Used from Trendy Twine:

Kraft Red Trendy Twine

Kraft Tags with Metal Rims

1x8 Clear Tubes Candy Tubes

Autumn Wishes.....Trendy Twine

Good Morning Everyone!

It is my DT day over on the Trendy Twine Blog!!!

A new month of spotlighted products from Trendy Twine has the DT showcasing the gorgeous new Fall Twine Colors. 

Today I am sharing a Fall inspired project using my featured twine color of the month~

Totally Chocolate along with the adorable 2x2 Kraft Boxes

To make my project, I used a 2x2 Kraft Box and instead of closing it up, I left the opening flap up and covered it with some beautiful fall pattern paper from Lawn Fawn~Sweater Weather. Next I wrapped some Totally Chocolate Trendy Twine around the box and added an adorable stamped image from My Creative Time colored with my copics. A fun banner sentiment onto the top and this box is ready to be filled with just about anything!

Of course I had to fill it with some Fall colored M&M's using the Candy Sack from Trendy Twine! Those bags hold a ton of treats!!! To close it up, I punched 2 holes onto the folded over top and then threaded some more Totally Chocolate Trendy Twine through to make a bow.

Here is what the candy bag looks like inside my project. A PERFECT fit!! And now ready to give :)

Here is what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

You are not going to want to miss a thing! She really ROCKED this release (well she always does, doesn't she?? Of course!!)

I am so excited to share the project I made today using this releases FREEBIE set 

Find Joy in the Little Things

  along with the AWESOME

You're a Great Catch

stamp and die set

Making treats has got to be one of the things I LOVE to do best with My Creative Time Stamps and dies!!! My youngest is a HUGE fan of these fishy treats so I usually have a bag around the house at all times. Then I saw these 2 sets, I knew they would make for some sweet treats!

To make my treat I used a medium candy bag from Trendy Twine and filled it with a backing of designer paper and some yummy fishy treats! 

Next I went about putting my tag together. One of the MUST have dies from MCT is the Just Tags set and I die cut the bottom layer with the matching inside designer paper. I die cut the top layer with white cardstock as well as some additional designer paper that I ended up using the wave die border on. I stamped the sentiment from this releases FREEBIE set~ Find Joy in the Little Things onto the wave border piece and adhered it to the tag top. 

I used the adorable bubble stamp and added that to the white cardstock, colored it in with some Wink of Stella and glossy accents and placed it aside to dry. 

 I stamped my fishy onto red designer paper, die cut him out as well as stamped and die cut the hook using kraft cardstock. I popped the fishy up above the hook which I glued onto my tag at a slant. 

To finish my project up, I added some matching Peppermint Icicle Trendy Twine through the tag to attach it to my candy bag.

PKS May New Release Sneak Peek Day 3

Happy Saturday everyone!!!
We’re here for Day #3 of May Sneak Peeks and we’re wondering if you’re enjoying this outdoor inspired release as much as we are! 
 If you missed days 1 or 2 of sneak peeks, you can always go back to the Peachy Keen Stamps Blog and check them out, just so you don’t miss one single bit of peachy inspiration!

Tonight we bring you more projects made by our talented team members using the new
Camping Pine and A Little Light Camping stamp sets.  
These whimsical images are the perfect on their own, or with any of the other sets within this release, and they give you so many options for creativity.

When I saw the adorable lightning bug on the A Little Light Camping set I knew I wanted to use it with these fun light bulb containers....So here is my project!

How adorable are theses, right??? I just love the fun image that Kathy drew up and the sentiment is one that can be mixed and matched with others in the set!

Here is a close-up of the lightning bug. I colored him using my copic markers and then added chalk and some white gel pen doodles to his cheeks and some Wink of Stella glitter to his wings and the center of his light bulb body.

He was then popped up on the tag die from My Creative Time, I stamped the sentiment on the bottom and then attached the tag to my filled light bulb container using some Bumblebee Trendy Twine

We’ll be back here tomorrow night for one final round of sneak peeks before our BIG Release and Reveal on the 5th.  Please join us as we share great projects created by our team using two new stamp sets.   Our favorite part of all this sneak peeking is being able to give our readers a chance to win a prize.  Would you like a chance to win the sets we’re showcasing tonight?  Of COURSE you would!!  All you need to do is leave your comment and for each comment you leave (here, on the PKS and other designer blogs), you’ll get one chance to win, so share the love, folks!

Thanks for stopping by and have a GREAT night!!!
