Day 2 - My Creative Time 121st Release!

 No doubt after seeing the ideas from the design team, you have come to 

realize this will be a great week!

I loved the sneaks so much from today, I had to make two cards!

First off a clean and simple:

This card features an image from yesterday's peaks, but I had to use the adorable stencil ( which is the freebie to the first 25 shoppers on Friday) to make the coffee stain and steam!  

OMG!  I love it and you will also!

For my second card I got to dust off my Copic  markers!

This coffee leaf image is stunning even without color, but I just did a little shading (after I googled 

what a coffee leaf was supposed to look like :))

The sentiments are from the sets we featured on Monday so you can see how beautifully

they stamp and die cut!

I know the rest of the team will knock your socks off!

Day 1 - My Creative Time's 121 Release!

 Such a glorious day here in Indiana!  I hope wherever you live you are enjoying the sunshine

and warm air of summer!  Emma has completely outdone herself again with this release!

I was so excited when it came, I created everything in an afternoon!

You are going to love it!

Today  we are featuring two new stamp sets and a new paper pad that will be

available on Friday June 24, 2022.  If you love coffee, you are going to want it ALL!

The majority of my card is using the new release but I did use 

a die from the 4 inch Circle Card Die set.

This die set rarely gets put away in my studio as I'm always using those circles!

I am so in love with the sentiment strips.  First off, they all have dies for them, but secondly

mixing of two fonts is my all time favorite trick that Emma does!

Love this multi layered card and I can't wait to send it off.

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

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.

Gift Card Helper Dies

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:

Rectangle Frame Die Layers

Rectangle Frame Die

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!
