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.

More Stitched Circles

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!

It's Your Day, Let's Celebrate!...{MCT Anything Goes}

Good morning everyone!
Welcome to my blog and another "Anything Goes" post with My Creative Time!
Miss Emma will be back next month with a new release BUT the DT wanted to jump in and share 2 days of "Anything Goes" posts which would normally be out new release week.
For my project, I have a birthday card to share using several MCT stamps and dies!
Take a look and let me know what you think...
For my card today I used this beautiful pattern paper I was gifted from a friend and knew that it would make a great birthday celebration card.
To make my card, I started with a kraft cardstock base, added a layer of white cardstock and then my designer paper die cut with the Stitched Rectangular Frame die.
The focal point of my card is that big stitched balloon which was die cut using matching designer paper from the paper pack. I did pop up the balloon for some extra dimension, tied a white twine ribbon around the base of the balloon where I added my sentiment.
The sentiment, from the Especially For You set was stamped onto the smallest of the Tag Frame Dies in white cardstock and layered with the Tag Frame Layer Die in kraft cardstock. A small hole was punched so I could add it to the balloon.
Another piece of white twine was added for the string of the balloon and for some extra elements I added 3 small stars in matching designer paper using the Have a Super Day set.
I am loving this simple card design becuase it can be made using different designer paper from a masculine card as well.

MCT Products Used:
Stitched Rectangular Frame Die

 I hope you have enjoyed my card today. Make sure to check out the MCT blog for more inspiration from the DT.
Miss Jannie, Kendra & Ruthie will have some fabulous projects to share!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today and have a GREAT Thursday!
Stay safe out there!

Wishing you a Happy Mother's Day...{MCT Just Cards}

Good Morning everyone!
It is my day to post on the MCT blog for "Just Cards" and I have a Mother's Day card to share that I made for my MIL.
Take a look and let me know what you think...
My mother in law's favorite color is purple so of course I had to make her card with as much purple as I could :)
To make my card I used the Stitched Rectangular Frame Die (unavailable at this time~ sorry) for the purple cardstock that was layered onto a piece of white cardstock and then mounted onto a kraft cardstock base.
For the sentiment, I used the Thank You Mom stamp set and the More Chunky Tag Dies
layering them and adhearing them to the top of my card.
That beautiful flower is from the Stay Beautiful set. I inked the edges in purple and popped it up onto the card front. I did place some greens behind the flower using the Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves Die.
Some random enamal dots completed my card. I sure hope my mother in law loves it!

So I hope you have enjoyed my card! As always I appreciate you stopping by for MCT's Just Cards post.

Home Baked with Love...{MCT I need a Favor}

Good morning everyone and welcome back to my blog for 
My Creative Time's I Need A Favor post!
For todays post, I am sharing a sweet treat idea that was inspired by the TONS of baking we have been doing while staying home these past few weeks.
Take a look at my project and let me know what you think...
For my project I made a tag to add to a kraft bag of a homemade chocolate chip cookie. For the tag, I used the Made with Love set for both the tag and the sentiment. To add some extra details to my tag, I added the heart, also from the Made with Love set as well as those adorable cookie die cuts from the Mixed Just for You set. The cookies were colored with my copic markers and popped up onto the tag.
To finish my tag, I added some brown twine which I used to tie up the bag :)

So I hope you have enjoyed my project! As always I appreciate you stopping by for MCT's I Need A Favor post

HB....{Birthday Palooza}

Good morning everyone and welcome to another
MCT Birthday Palooza post!
Today I have a fun gift card/birthday card to share using one of my new FAVORITE MCT dies, the Mailbox Gift Card Holder!
Take a look at my project and let me know what you think :)
I LOVE taking the Mailbox Gift Card Holder and turning it onto a card as well. It holds my gift card on the outside and has a spot inside for my message.
To make my project, I started with a kraft cardstock base which I folded in half and die cut with the base of the gift card holder. I then decorated the outside of the gift card with designer paper from Echo Park, the HB using the new ABC dies and the sentiment from the Especially For You set.
Some matching enamel dots completed my card/gift card holder!

So I hope you have enjoyed my project! As always I appreciate you stopping by for MCT's Birthday Palooza
