EAD's Color Challenge and More!

Hi Everyone happy Thursday!  I'm so glad it's almost the weekend because as I've been sharing with you this week, next week is going to be super busy with lots of cool projects coming up!  And of course I need the whole weekend to work on them!  Oh, I might even get some cleaning and laundry done, however I wouldn't want to over do it! lol

Now onto today's project...It's EAD Designs Color Challenge!  As soon as I saw these stickerz, I knew that I would be using My Creative Time~You Had Me At Chocolate stamp set with them!  It's like they were meant to be together!


I got this idea from my friend, Emma, maybe you've heard of her!  ROFLOL!!!

I printed the background on the labels with my Imagine, its a faint pink pattern

Then I stamped the sentiments and added the stickerz to two of them, and just stickerz to the other two.  I've also given you a sneak peek of something!  Don't tell! :)

I embossed the pink layer and did some more stamping to the background.  Added the bow and voila one sweet card!
I'm sorry I don't have the cut sizes for you.  There was a lot of welding involved, I really just would know how to explain it.  :)


Recipe:
Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge

My Creative Time's 3-D Wednesday!

Good Morning and Welcome to My Creative Times 3-D Wednesday!  I hope you are enjoying your week so far!  I've been super busy creating tons of  My Creative goodness! You know we have a new release next week!  You're going to love what's coming up!  Now lets get to today's challenge.
For today's 3-D Wednesday project, Emma asked us to  make any 3-D project of our choice with "TEXTURE" added to it! (anything but ribbon as texture).  Also she asked me to use her "All Star Baby" stamp set!  I have to admit that sometimes the minute I'm told not to do something, that's all I want to do! 
So for my texture I used fabric, twisted and rolled into a rosette!  I was a good girl and followed instructions!  hehehe




recipe:
Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge
shopping bag cut at 11.54 x 7.45
paper: Teresa Collins, cardstock
fabic, rhinestone,ink, glossy accents


I'm so sorry if the pictures don't look right.  Blogger wasn't being kind to me when I was uploading pictures and I had to "mickey mouse" it so it would let me upload.  Anyway make sure you check out Emma's blog to see what she and the other Designers created!
Enjoy!

Good morning everyone!  Welcome to EAD Designs Monday Hop!  I'm sorry I've been so quiet lately, my cup has runneth over! :)  I promise I will be back running four posts a week.  I already know my schedule for the rest of the month...good things coming your way!

I made this card for my niece, she turned 17!  I know this doesn't seem like a card for a teen, but you'd have to know her...for her party she asked that we dress in 1940's war time clothing.  I went as Rosie the riveter and my husband was a sailor.  All I can say is that I'm glad that red lipstick is not the only color women wear now...I was tired of trying to keep it off my teeth all night!  :)

My Creative Time 3-D Wednesday!

Hello Everyone and welcome to My Creaive Time's first 3-D Wednesday of the new year!  It seems like forever since we've posted one!  I'm so EXCITED to be back after a long break!!!  Just to refresh your memory 3-D Wednesday is about showcasing anything but a card or a layout, so hopefully you will be inspired by something you see from the Design Team!

For today's project I made a frame that will hold two pictures out of dollar bin coasters.  I used My Creative Time's 100% Sweetness stamp set...one of my favorites!  I love it because it's not just for Valentine's Day! 

I guess it could hold three pictures, if you wanted!  :)


Once you have covered the coasters, evenly space your holes for the twine to connect them.

love those flowers! :)

If you just popped in to see me, make sure that you head over to Emma's, she has all the Design Team projects there!  I can't wait to see what they've made myself!  We have one CREATIVE TEAM!!!

Enjoy!
