My Creative Time Just Cards!

 I LOVE handmade cards!

I mean, I really LOVE HANDMADE CARDS!

It's what I do and getting to post a card for today is my passion.

Today I have a simple card with the 

sentiment embossed in Rose Gold.

I kept all decor simple by using enamel dots

and of course a Mini Bow!

Instead of die cutting the floral image

I thought it would be nice to emboss it but you 

could cut it out as well.

Items used:

I Have Faith in You Stamp & Die

Mini Bow Die Set (trust me, you need this one)

Thank you for stopping by my blog today!

I'd love to know what your passion is too!

of sneaks, but the best part of that is

that you can start shopping tomorrow!

Pocket Treat Die!

Oh, my, you are going to love this one!  I look back through the years

when I made treats for the office!

The inside features 4 Hershey Nuggets (I buy these at Sam's club because I use them ALL the time!

Cut your strip of paper 1x3 inch and they wrap perfect.

I used a smaller circle die from Bunch of Fun Circle Dies to stamp my sentiment

from Sending Love, the outside features one

Day three Sneaky Peaks for My Creative Time!

 This week is flying by!

Today is a special day as we pay tribute

to the one and only My Sister's Scrapper Ginger Ropp.

Ginger was a DT member for My Creative Time and her

projects were legendary.  Her You Tube channel continues on and 

anytime I need to hear her voice, I just cue up a video.  One of her favorite die

sets from MCT was the doily set and if you look at her projects you can pick

them out on almost every one of them.  Today we feature:

Ginger's Doily Dies

What an honor to create a project with Ginger in mind

and know that she would love it.

I started with the 3 Inch Circle Card Dies

Added in a banner from More Sentiment Strip Dies

Used another bow from Mini Bow Dies

and sentiments from Sending Love.

 It is so fun to be back with you again.

Didn't you love yesterday's projects??  Did you comment on

every blog for a chance to win????  If not, catch up today!

Today we are featuring the Wonky Heart Dies.

Oh my, this was a fun card to make for my bestie!

I used the sentiment from Sending Love

and then I just cut a pile of hearts (all in white).

I embossed some, used a different texture of white

cardstock and I LOVE the look.  I used a strip

of scrap cardstock on the front to break up the white and grounded it

all with some bling!

I can't wait to give her this card!

Farmhouse-ish!

 As a young woman growing up on an

actual farm, I couldn't wait until I was old enough to

leave it by getting married and having a home of my own.

Little did I realize that one day I would pine away for that

drafty old brick home with it's large front porch, red barn,

gravel driveway and the dust and dirt that found it's way inside daily.

Farm life was not easy then and I'm sure it's not easy now, but

I have learned to appreciate the quiet moments which allow me to

travel back in time if only in my mind.

After retiring I decided to do some decorating changes in our

condo as I just love the farmhouse decor vibe.

My first BIG project was getting the entire inside painted a

soft grey and then having the cabinets painted white.

Here are two shots showing how gorgeous the cabinet color.

The overall monochromatic look makes my

condo seem much larger than before.

Here is a picture of my living room.

I loved the tree so much I left it up all last year and

never decorated for Christmas this year except for this tree.

So today, I made myself a sign that I

think sums up my decorating style.

Now I just need to figure out where to hang it!

Thanks for stopping by my farmhouse-ish home!

Gift Card Giving My Creative Time Style!

 Welcome to another fun project featuring My Creative Time

Dies and stamps!  Since my grandchildren are bigger

convenience of having some on hand to use when I want to send out

a thank you note or a cheerful hello!

I used the Gift Card Tag Dies

Fun Size Holiday Bow

Amazing Things 

Mini Bow Dies - No card maker/mini album maker should be without this set!

Good Things are Coming Stamp Set this one is on SALE!

I love the wintry look to my card and it's the 

perfect card to send to someone who is going through

a challenge right now!

Thanks for stopping by!

Sharing the BEST and MOST exciting news with you all!

 Hello! Happy New Year!

If you look at my blog and posting dates it may seem that I haven't been crafting, but I have been.

The past two years have been challenging for us all.  I was retired but due to the need of 

healthcare workers, I returned to help out on an as needed basis.  I was able to work from home

but was surprised at how mentally exhausted I was at the end of the day.

Crafting happened maybe on the weekends and I just didn't post the pics.

2022 is starting off with a bang as I am joining the

My Creative Time Design Team!  If you have been a follower of mine, you know

I have loved this company since it's beginning.  I am so thrilled to be able to share with

you through my projects just how special they are and how easy the products are to use.

Today is Tag You're It!

I created this tag for a dear friend of mine who gave me the idea

for a daily devotional that I just love!  I want her to be able to use it as a

bookmark in her Bible Study so she never forgets how much she means to so many people.

I used the Tall Tag Frame Dies and the Tall Tag Frame Die Layers to make my tag.

I punched a hole at the top to be able to attach all three layers together with my bow.

The flower and sentiment come from the You Are Cherished stamp and die set.

I did some simple Copic coloring on the floral image and added

a couple of tiny pearls to the vellum layer on top.  I also embossed the sentiment

on the vellum layer so it would pop.  I love the soft and muted look on this tag!

Thank you for stopping by and get ready for a fun new year with loads of projects!
