My Creative Time Gift Card Post

 So many things in life are different one of those being

people are very hard to buy a gift for it seems!  I'm so glad the Gift Card is a 

popular choice and My Creative Time products make it easy to make your

gift card a personal gift.  Today I'm highlighting Mermaid Kisses Stamp & Die Set and

the Mermaid Background Die.


Other MCT products used:
I used the tiny Happy Birthday stamped on the gift card holder.  
This set has TONS of Happy Birthday sentiments that will surely fit any need.
The helper dies will become your best friend if you like to give gift cards
because they add the perfect little "helper holders" on any card!

Of course I had to add some sparkle with the flat sided gems.
Look how easy it is to turn almost anything into a card holder!

Let your imagination run wild!  It's the year of the Gift Card!

My Creative Time - Just Cards!

 You know this is my favorite thing to create!

I love making cards!  Lately I've been challenging myself to do

"less is more" cards.  My mother always had a way of saying less is more

when she was trying to get me to focus on the BIG picture.

So, with her voice in the back of my head I created a "less is more" card

or what we know in the card world as a "clean and simple" card.




I love using stencils and this mandala stencil that is stunning.
I used Oxide Inks to blend on the front of my card but not covering the entire layer.
What you cannot see in the photo is that I "spritzed" my card with a 
glittery spray to add another dimension.

MCT products used:
3" Donut Dies (cut out the word Sweet 5 times)
Mandala Stencil from my stash
Blue gems - from my stash
Numbers 1 & 6 from a Retired MCT set

I think my momma would be pleased!

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).

Products used to create this card:
Celebrate You Stamp Set
MCT Paper set
Ice Cream Die
Star Stencil - all available Friday May 27, 2022
