 If you arrived here from Shar's wonderful blog then you are in the right place!  

I hope you are enjoying the hop so far!  It's hard to believe this is my last post as a MCT design team member!  It has been 2 years since I started on the team and the time has just flown by!  

We decided on a friendship theme for this hop because along the way we have all become very good friends! We have laughed together, cried together and been there for each other's ups and downs in life!  I am so grateful to have gotten to know each and everyone of them!  And I am eternally grateful to Emma for giving me the privilege to be a part of her team! Emma is such and kind,sweet, generous and genuine person and it has been a wonderful experience!  

So for my project today I made a card.


I found the cute bunny in the Silhouette online store!  The little hearts are all MCT dies and the sentiment is from MCT's  You are Perk-fect Stamp set! 

Thank you all so much for all your support and kind comments you have left over the past 2 years!! I appreciate all of you and hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

For my project I used Emma's Treat Box Slider Box die to create this cute little Santa treat!


Sorry about the horrendous picture!!  It really is much cuter in person! :)

I just cut the top of the box out in red and white card stock and then cut the white strip for that.  I made the buckle with a piece of black and gold card stock and used my ribbon threader punch to thread the paper through the buckle!   

Hope you have been inspired along the way!

Hi and welcome!  If you arrived here from Shar's blog then you are on the right track! If you just happened by my blog today then you may want to start at Emma's Blog so you don't miss anything! 

Today I am showcasing the new Fun Size Scallop Stitched Bow Die!  So many options for this cute little die!


Here is what I came up with :)


It's never to early to get a jump on Father's Day, right?! lol! 
 This was so fun to make!  Emma's Dies are so versatile and they seriously all compliment each other so well. I love how you can mix and match just about everything.  

I used the What's Growing On Dies for the glasses and mustache, the Stitched Journal Die for the blue layer, which I then used the new notebook paper edge die on.  I also used the new Stitched Circle Tab Die and the coordinating sentiments.  The Dad stamp is from the Here's Lookin At You Stamp set.
The paper is all from the DCWV Guy Stack.  I inked around everything with TH distress ink in Vintage Photo.

 I just LOVE making Halloween cards, in fact when I first started my Blog it was around this time of year, I was new to card making and found that Halloween stuff is so fun and easy to make...it is hard to go wrong with black, orange, purple and green!

Anyhoo.... :)  On to my card:


This Vampire Owl was the Freebie yesterday from Miss Kate Cuttables!  Love him!!  I sized him around 3 1/2 inches.  I cut out the card base with my Cameo.  The fun sentiment is from MCT's  All Around Halloween set, I thought it went perfect with this little guy!
