My Creative Time 12th Anniversary Release and Blog Hop

 What a great release and celebration we have had this week.

Emma truly has outdone herself with her new stamps, dies and paper pad.

Just to recap:

Monday


Tuesday


Wednesday


Thursday


All products are now available!

Today I am showcasing the Let's Get Crafty Stamp & Die set and the new paper pad for the Blog Hop.



I used the Tall Frame Die Layers to create this card.
I fried up my Cricut and cut out the hexagon shapes.  So easy.  You can 
make them any size you want and after I had them on my card
I used the Frame Die layers to cut through and give me clean edges.
Isn't that paper gorgeous??

Starting on Friday, May 27, 2021 @8am PST the "DAD" die will be given to the first "100" shoppers! If you would like this die for free, you might want to shop EARLY!

Day 4 Sneaky Peak - My Creative Time 12th Anniversary!

 What a great week I've had!  I love to share these fabulous products with you
and see your excitement as you create your own masterpiece.
Today we are featuring an incredible wallet die, just in time for Father's Day.
And here's the inside holding a gift card.
I love this black paper since it has a texture to it and felt it looked more like leather
than my smooth card stock.  I cut DAD out 3 times to add some bulk and then
popped it up with foam tape.  What DAD wouldn't love this?


Starting on Friday, May 27, 2021 @8am PST this "DAD" die will be given to the first "100" shoppers! If you would like this die for free, you might want to shop EARLY!

Day 3 Sneaky Peaks - 12th Anniversary - My Creative Time

 How can we be half way through the week?

Hope you are having fun - I know I am!

Today we are sneaking a new Stamp Set called Celebrate You, an Ice Cream Die and a Star Stencil!

OMG!  I love stencils!


What a great way to celebrate someone's birthday!
Here's a quick video on the surprise under the ice cream!



My sincere apology that the quick video I prepared does not seem to be loading.  I will continue to try throughout the morning to get the link to work.

I have not used an action wobble in years, but this dish of ice cream was
begging to be jiggled!  Look at that inside of the card with the stencil.
So many uses for this (4th of July is coming).

Celebrate You Stamp Set
MCT Paper set
Ice Cream Die
Star Stencil - all available Friday May 27, 2022

It's My Creative Time's 12th Anniversary!!!!

 I hope you are ready for an exciting week!
Emma has really pulled out all the stops for this momentous occasion.
New stamps and dies AND her own paper!
Yes you heard that correctly - her own paper!
Today we are showcasing her new paper line and a new stamp set called Crafty Friend!
When I think of crafty friend, I think of my bestie.  I love gifting her quality
craft supplies so I thought I'd use the new paper, create a belly band and card.
I love this set of Kuretake Water Color paints - it's the perfect gift.

Crafty Friend - Available May 20th, 2022

Make it Manly post featuring My Creative Time!

 I'm making a manly birthday card today for

MY GRANDSON!  How can that be?  It seems like he has grown up

way too fast but he celebrated his 19th birthday a few days ago.

I made this cute donut birthday card for him (I don't care how old you are, you always love donuts).


With prices these days, he asked for a gas card so I added
that inside with the sentiment,
"I love you more than donuts".

I love this birthday set.  Appropriate for either men or women!

Happy Birthday Trent!

My Creative Time - I need a Favor!

 Today's challenge is always a fun one!  I made "favors" for my office for years when I was

working full time.  I loved having little treats made and putting them beside their computers

so they would find them first thing.  I used Emma's products all the time and I want to show

you a couple of quickies!

First off we have the Popcorn Treat Box Die.  I love this little die!

I'm doing WW right now and my little bag of Pirate's Booty is the perfect

amount for this Treat Box!  Isn't it cute???

BTW - I ate the treat so I had to count 2 points!!!  LOL!


This would be an adorable birthday party favor.  You could have all of them cut out
and let the kids finish and add their treats.  A party to remember!

Speaking of birthdays!  I think we know someone who is celebrating this week - EMMA!
In honor of Emma's birthday we are "sneaking" a peak at a new set coming out soon!
I made another treat using a couple of things from our new set.

Since this is a special month & it's also Emma's birthday week, she let us use one of the new stamp & die sets that we are releasing this month! We are creating birthday projects this week & we get to use this new birthday set "Celebrate You"! You will see more sneaky peeks of this set during the week of the 23rd!








Products used:
I used the largest one and just scored on the bottom with room for three Hershey Nuggets.  Wrapped the nuggets in coordinating paper and bam - a cute BD treat.
I broke out my Peachy Keen Stamps to stamp the face on my little girl!
I needed a party hat for my little girl so I used the top of the tree!
Other items used will be released soon!

For many treats I used the Hershey Nuggets because I buy the BIG bag!

I find that people love a little chocolate and they are the perfect touch to any project!

Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you enjoyed the little sneak!

MCT Anything Goes!

 I got a thing for bunnies!  I don't know why but I have yet to see a bunny I didn't like, if you know what I mean.  I may be just a bit obsessed with MCT Lollipop holders because they are so much more than the name applies.

Today for the Anything Goes Challenge I used the Bunny Lollipop Treat Holder Die and expanded the base to accommodate this LARGE Hershey kiss!  I found these while shopping for Valentine's Day and I just knew I had to get a few extra.  By cutting a longer strip of white for the base I just glued the pieces together and slipped in the candy.  The pink pom pom is too cute on the bunny's bum!

You know it's hard for me to create a project without using the Mini Bow Die Set so I needed

just a little more embellishment on the front!



Thank you for stopping by today!  Take the challenge
and create ANYTHING GOES!
