Hey Hey Hey only one more day before the shopping can begin! That's right today is day 4 of My Creative Time June Release and we are showing off Just A Note stamp and die set! You will love this small card die that comes with several sentiment stamps. If you remember from day 1 I mentioned that there were circle stamps, well here they are :)

MCT June Release Sneak Peek Day 3 ~ heart of gold!

Hi, well we are half way through the My Creative Time sneaky peeks, I sure have been blown away by all the creativity!  Today is all about the labels, the Sentiment Label Dies that is.  :)  This is one, actually I mean three fabulous dies with a "fish tail" on both sides.  I love that since it makes it more versatile!

I only used two of the sizes of this new die, and yes I did cut off the left side of two of them.  I'm a big fan of images being "interrupted".

MCT June Release Sneak Peek Day 2 ~ blessing!

Hello, so didn't you just love all the projects the team made yesterday.  Well if you love yesterday's then you'll flip for today's sets, You Are A Blessing and Fun Polka Dots!  I must be in an ink blending mood this week :)

I started by using several colors of distress ink to create the gradient background.  Next I heat embossed in white the solid and outlined circles.  Then I stamped the solid circles in distress ink.  I just love this effect!

MCT June Release Sneak Peek Day 1 ~ smile!

Hi, can you believe that it's already June and summer is in full swing?  I feel like it was just Christmas and I blinked and now summer.  I really just need to slow down!  Enough about me, let's get to why you're here...My Creative Time's newest release!  I've been patiently waiting for Miss Emma to release this set.  Sometime Emma let's us know an idea she has, but we don't actually get to see them until they are made...well I LOVE this new set You are Spot On stamp and die set!  Funny thing, I had so much fun with the dies I didn't even use the circle stamps...however I have a project later this week where I did :)

First thing I did was some ombre ink blending with several colors then die cut the circles.  Really fairly simple.  

I had a few extra ombre circles, just enough to create another card, but in black.

MCT Inspire Me Wednesday ~ by the sea!

Hi, today over at My Creative Time is "Inspire Me Wednesday".  This is where we get inspiration from non traditional places.  My card was inspired from a pillow I saw at either Pier1 or World Market, I can't remember which one I was at since they are next door to each other.  I just fell in love with the distressed look and wanted to bring it home, but I don't have a "beachy house" so at the store it stayed.

To create the "tile", I embossed with a die, then masked and ink blended.  Then I heat embossed several coats of clear embossing powder, on the last coat I sprinkled a bit of gold.  I used distress inks for the sand "ticking" and blue stripe, then sprinkled water droplet.  After it was dry, I lightly splattered distress ink for added interest.

MCT Trending Now: Make it Bright ~ brighter days!

Hi, today over at My Creative Time is "Trending Now: Make it Bright"!  It seems that where ever I look bright colors are around.  Do you think it's the time of year or just the 90's making a return?  :)

The other day I was playing around with some new watercolors.  What I thought was just a test paper ended up being a card.  Just goes to show you there are no mistakes in crafting :)
