My Creative Time :: We're Sorry!

If you're looking for my BIG GIVEAWAY post, click here!

Good morning! I've got a super quick card to share with you all this morning. My sister needed a card (like yesterday) so it had to be something quick, but still super cute. So look at this sad little sunflower!

I created the sunflower using the Warm Holiday Fun die from My Creative Time.
Now, this is totally not my idea, it came from my DT sister Kimberly over at Scrapin' Mom of one Inspiring Little Boy. :) You can see her original post here!
The sunflower stem was cut with my Expression 2 using the Stretch You Imagination cartridge. I printed the sentiment from my computer, and I forgot to take note of the font, but I really like it! You might be seeing more of it too! :)
Supplies:
PaperTrey Ink Vintage Cream cardstock
Misc Bazzill cardstock
My Mind's Eye Fiddlesticks 6x6 paper stack
Stretch You Imagination cartridge (sunflower stem)
My Creative Time Scallop and Stitched Circle die
My Creative Time Warm Holiday Fun ornament die
Stampin' Up pearls

And don't forget to head on over to My Creative Time today to check out the DT projects for Scrapping the Little Things.
Hope you all have a fabulous Monday!

My Creative Time :: September Release Blog Hop!

If you're looking for my BIG GIVEAWAY post, click here!

Yay! It's time for another release over at My Creative Time! I hope you've been enjoying all the sneaks so far, but definitely tune into today because we've got some more fabulous projects to share with you!

If you've just come from Jayne's blog, then you're hopping in the right direction! If not, then head on over to Emma's blog to start at the beginning of the hop!

Look at these fabulous new stamp sets and tag dies!
I've got three projects to show you, using all three new sets! I have to say, these are must have sets! 

My first project is a super cute little Christmas treat holder. I found this box at Staples, all you have to do is add some pattern paper and the Just Tag dies and voila!
Supplies:
Gift Box (purchased from Staples)
PaperTrey Ink Black cardstock
Stampin' Up Cherry Cobbler cardstock
Tersa Collins Christmas Home 6x6 Designer paper pad
My Creative Time From Our Family to Yours
My Creative Time Just Tag dies
Liz's PaperLoft Boutique hemp twine
misc button

And the Just Tag dies aren't only for tags! You can certainly add them to a card too. For this super quick card, I just added some pattern paper and a stamp from the new Just For You stamp set onto the die. Super easy if you have a ton of Christmas cards to make. :)
And just look at this Crinkle Ribbon! I got this from 3 Girl Jam and it is the best I've used so far. The colors are perfect!
Supplies:
PaperTrey Vintage Cream cardstock
Stampin' Up Cherry Cobbler cardstock
Fancy pants Designs Saint Nick 6x6 paper pad

And last but not least, I've got to make some Halloween treats for my nephews and here's what I came up with! This is a little matchbook treat holder. I got the dimensions from the fabulous ladies over at Jaded Blossom: Candace and Michelle. It's super quick to make and Emma's Scallop and Stitched Circle die added the right finishing touch. :) I used quite a few of the My Creative Time stamp sets on this one, but it's all good, since ALL of Emma's stamp sets coordinate together!
Supplies:
PaperTrey Ink Black cardstock
Misc Bazzill cardstock
My Mind's Eye Mischievous 6x6 paper pad
