My Creative Time's Throwback Thursday Challenge!

Hi and Welcome to another My Creative Time Throwback Thursday Challenge!  For my card today I used several cartridges.


The table is a cut from the Sweet Tooth cartridge. It is actually a cake stand but I think it makes a fine table! :)  The bunnies are from the Kate's ABC's Cartridge.  I flipped one of them with the "flip" button on my Cricut, a very handy feature!  The teapot and cups are from the Love You A Latte cartridge.  I have actually been wanting to make this card since I saw the cute sentiment "Tea for Two" in the Tea Party stamp set from MCT!  It was a wee bit time consuming (read as 4 hours! lol!) but I do like the way it turned out. 
I also used the cute spoon stamp from the same set.  I stamped it 3 times cut them out and glued them to the "wall"  :) 

Thanks for stopping by!! Hope you join us for the challenge!

Cow's it going?

Hi!  I just wanted to share a quick card I made today using a cute SVG file from Lettering Delights.  They have the cutest stuff!! :)


The cow is from the Rise and Shine set.  I printed the sentiment from my computer.

The paper is mostly Bazzil card stock and the green background paper is from the K&Co Confetti paper stack.  I inked around all the edges with Tea Dye distress ink and added a few flowers and brads!

3-D Wednesday!

Hi and Welcome 3-D Wednesday Challenge with My Creative Time!! 


For my little treat today I used Emma's awesome Stitched Lollipop Holder die! I just love this thing! It is so quick and easy to use! :)  I decorated it with the little rocket from the B is for Boys cartridge. I cut it out at 2 1/4".  I added a little star button and secured it with some baker's twine.  The circle at the top is made with MCT's Stitched Circle die, I embossed it with my Cuttlebug.  It is supposed to look like the moon!  :)  The sentiment is from MCT's Classmate Valentine's set.  I just didn't ink up the word Valentine!  Super Easy!

Thanks for stopping by!

Today I get the pleasure of showcasing the Do the Cocoa Motion stamp set!  Who doesn't LOVE Hot Chocolate!! :)
I was inspired by my fellow design team members to make a little gift of hot chocolate to give to someone special! :)
I found this cute card box in the Silhouette Store.



I used the Hot Cocoa mug from the Do the Cocoa Motion set. I (once again!!) paper pieced it by stamping the image on some pink paper and then stamping it again on to white paper.  It really is fun!

The sentiment is from the new You Are Perk-fect  set.  I masked off the stamp a couple of times to get the sentiment to fit onto Emma's Stitched Heart die from the 100% Sweetness set.  The small heart is from the Anyday Crossword and Bingo set.  I stamped everything in Memento Rich Cocoa ink and inked the edges of everything in my favorite Tim Holtz distress ink in Tea Dye.  I finally got one of the distress ink blending tools with the foam applicators and it really makes a HUGE difference!  Who knew!?!!

Well thanks for hopping along with us!!

No Bunny Like You!

Hi I just wanted to share a card I made today!  I'm on some kind of a bunny kick or something!! lol! 


This little bunny is special!! He is made out of My Creative Time dies and a few "extra parts" I had laying around!  I used the Stitched Egg die for the body, the Stitched Heart die (cut in half) for the feet, the Stitched Oval die (cut in half!) for the ears and the small Stitched Circle from the Build-A-Banner kit (again cut in half) for the hands! :)  I think he turned out kind of cute!  Although my 4 year old thought he was a kangaroo!! lol!

The sentiment is from My Creative Time's Color Me Happy set!  I thought it went perfect with the bunny since I think he is one of a kind! :)

The paper is from a 6X6 My Minds Eye pad I found at Micheal's and I used some Recollection stickers and some stickers I had in my stash!! I'm trying to actually use the things I buy! :)

Thanks for looking!!
See you this week for My Creative Time's March stamp release blog hop!

Throwback Thursday Cricutless Challenge!

Hi!! For today's challenge we were to make a card or layout "old school" style!! No Cricuts!! (OR Cameos!! lol!! sneaky!).
For my card I used several of My Creative Time stamp sets and dies! It is fun sometimes to make a card without using a cutting machine! (I'm not including the Cuttlebug in that!!) 
So for my card I used the All Around Accessories set for the large cupcake, which I stamped several times on different colored paper and paper pieced together.  The sentiment Happy Happy Birthday is from the Wow! So Many Candles set.  I made a little banner using the smallest die from the Teeny Tag Greetings set and the circle from the  Build A Banner kit. I got the idea from one of my fellow DT members!!  The cute little cupcake on the banner is from the Anyday Crossword and Bingo set.  I colored those in with Copic markers and added a little gem for the cherry! :)

Thanks for stopping by!!
