MCT's Designer Challenge Thursday

Happiness Keeps You Sweet Card...

 

Happy Happy Thursday All! Welcome back for another post of My Creative Time Designer Challenge Thursday. For today's Challenge, Design Team Member Cassandra has challenged all of us crafters to play with a color challenge. So here it is: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple. Create a project of your choice using any 3 of the colors. If you really want to challenge yourself you are welcome to create with all 6 colors. For my project, I decided to make a clean and simple card. I have a friend that has been needing some Cheering Up. So, this challenge was perfect for making a card for her. Here are some pics:

Scrapping the Little Things

All Ears Scrap Page...

 

Good Morning Everyone! Grab your morning Coffee or drink of choice and get ready to be inspired this morning with My Creative Time and Design Team. Welcome back for another episode of Scrapping the Little Things using Project Life, Smashbook, or a Scrapbook Layout to capture your beautiful moments. I used a simple layout for one 4x6 photo. My page is an 8x8 size layout.

 

Doesn't this Stitched Bunny Die look so adorable under the chevron ribbon?!? The cutie bunny was popped up with foam dots.



Oh My Goodness when I saw this Sentiment and I knew it was PERFECT for this cute pic.

My Creative Time 3-D Wednesday

 

BINGO Money Tin...

 

 

 

Happy Wednesday All! I hope you are ready for another FUN episode of My Creative Time's 3-D Wednesday. My Inspiration this week was the Fun Game, My Family and Friends, get together once a month to play. Here in South Texas, The Mexican Bingo is very popular. And so much FUN to play too! Well, for this project this is what I created: My Bingo Money Tin.

 

I used an Almonds recycled Tin.

 

The background base is cut from a scrap I had. I believe it came From a DCWV Spring Stack.

 

The Blingy clear rhinestones look perfect in between each Banner Flag.

 

I decided to use a thick hemp cord wrapped aroun the tin and behind each Banner Flag. Adhered a bow and square brad in the center.

 

Isn't the lid just PERFECT!?!? The circle background is a saved scrap from another project. I added some Gold stickles to some of the numbers of the stamp for some sparkly effect. One sideof the tail of the banner, I cut myself to almost match the other side. And distressed the edges with black chalk fluid ink.

Now, Family Bingo Night will be much more FUN. With this colorful and sparkly Money Tin.

 

My Creative Time Supplies Used:

 

Game Night Stamp Set

 

Build A Banner Kit Stamp and Die Set

 

Lower Case Fun Dies

 

Fly Away With Me Stamp and Die Set

 

 

Well, that is all for now Crafty Friends! If you have not been by My Creative Time, hope you will. The rest of the Design Team has some FABULOUS 3-D Prjects to show you, as well. Have a Fabby rest of your week! See you back here next time!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 





MCT's Thrifty Thursday

Happy St. Patty's Tag...

Happy Thursday Crafty Friends! Wowww... I can't believe how the months are just flying by so fast. Well, I don't know about all of you, but I can't wait until St. Patty's Day! Love Love Love decorating and making anything GREEN for this FUN day. For today's project, My Creative Time Design Team was to create any project around the color GREEN. And of course, any scraps that have been left over from previous projects. My Sister LOVES her GREEN Margaritas and thought of a gift tag for her Margarita bottle, I plan to give to her for St. Patty's Day. 

My Creative Time Tag Dies was used to cut this cute scalloped/stitched tag. 

I cut a green piece of scrap to make a background matte. Cut a smaller piece of printed paper to adhere on top of the green piece. I placed a smaller piece of tan color cardstock to cut another edged tag for sentiment and adhered. The silhouette stamp is from the "Keepin' It Classy" Stamp Set. After being stamped and cut out, I added some silver stckles to the silhouette for a bling look.

You're My Pot of Gold Stamp Set was used for this sentiment. I masked the top part with some tape and removed the tape after inking stamp. Stamped it to the tan color piece of cardstock. Lots of small clear rhinestones finish the bling look around the tag.

CHEERS sentiment also came from the "You're My Pot of Gold" Stamp Set.

The glass stamp is from the "Keppin' It Classy" Stamp Set. I stamped it in a very light blue stamp cut it out. Added some lime green stickles and rock candy stickles. when dry I added some glossy accents to the glass. 

I had to finish the tag off with a small bow with two different ribbons. Also, adhered a large blingy stone to the center of the bow.

 

Once again, thanks a bunch for stopping by to take a looksy at today's project. Don't forget to stop by My Creative Time to view the rest of the design team projects for Thrifty Thursday.

MCT's- Scrapping the Little Things

Happy Monday Crafty Friends! Welcome back for another "Scrapping the Little Things" episode with My Creative Time and some of the Design Team. For my project today, I wanted to show a scrap page to be displayed in my home for St. Patty's Day. s youknow this episode some of the DT will show scrap pages, pages for Project Life, or a Smashbook Page. For this page, the Inspiration came from my Mom's Garden. As I worked on it the other day, I came upon a patch of clovers. The clovers were big and so cute! They reminded me of this cute die that Emma from My Creative Time designed.

 

Heres are some pics of what I created:

This page can be made into a 12x12 or 8x8. I chose to do it at an 8x8 size.

The photo matts and journal matt were sized at 2 1/4" x 2 1/2". The center matts were cut at about 1 3/4" x 7 1/2".

 

Lines were stamped on a matted rectangle for journaling.

 



Rhinestones were adhered for bling effect on the clovers. Tiny sentiment was stamped in black on a Tiny Tag. Glittered ribbon was adhered to the tag.

 

Thank you so much for stopping by! Make sure and also head on over to My Creative Time if you have not been there. Emma and the rest of the Design Team have lots of Fabulous creations for you to see. Have a CREATIVE week!
