So lets get started!!

Today we are showcasing the new die set~

Scalloped Stitched Circles
and here is the card I made using this set.....

When I started to design my card, I pulled the Doodlebug Designs paper pad~Flea Market

and saw the sunflower sheet. I used that inspiration to design my card, of course using that paper pack for all the designer paper.

I used 2 different size circle dies and the matching scallop dies to make my sunflowers. The leaves were added using the Stitched Pretty Flower & Leaves Dies and A Thankful Heart set.

Moving onto the sentiment, I  used the Ribbon End Banners Die and stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Day set.

So foam to pop up the dies and sentiment and a little white gel pen completes my card.

Sending Hugs & Happy Thoughts.....{MCT Thoughtful Thursday}

Good Morning everyone!

I hope you are all having a GREAT week so far!!!

It's Thursday  which means time for another

My Creative Time~ Thoughtful Thursday

Spring is in the air here so my card was inspired by some of the beautiful flowers that are starting to come into the stores around town using the newly released Beautiful Day set.

Take a look and let me know what you think.....

I got a little inky with my card today and played around a bit with masking....not bad for my first time I have to say :)

To make my card I started with a white card stock mat that was die cut using the Stitched Rectangular Frame Die

Next I stamped the flowers randomly around the bottom of the card mat using the the Beautiful Day set. The flowers were colored using my copic markers and for some added dimension, I used my white gel pen and some white Nuvo Crystal drops for the centers.

Once the crystal drops were dry, I die cut the same flowers and laid them over the stamped images. Using Salty Ocean Distress Ink, I inked over the white card mat and when the die cuts were pulled up it left a beautiful colored background and a pretty white border around the flowers.

Moving onto the finishing touches of my card, I die cut a piece of black card stock and added the border using the set Pretty Edge Dies

The sentiment, also from the Beautiful Day set was stamped onto the banner die from Chocolate Greetings. 

One more flower colored with my copics was added above the banner sentiment to complete my card.

So what do you think of my card? I love the background and if you haven't tried masking yet, you really need to!!!

 Want to see more projects?

Make sure you head on over to My Creative Time to see what the rest of the DT made!

I know the inspiration is AWESOME!!!!

MCT 65th New Release Sneak Day 1

Good Morning and welcome to Day 1 of sneaks for the 
65th New Release from
 My Creative Time!!!
This week is going to be jammed pack with awesome inspiration from the DT and new release stamps and dies that I know you are all going to LOVE!!!!!

So lets get started..... Today's sneak features the new  set~

Beautiful Day
and here is the card I made using this set....

My card was made for my MIL who has an upcoming birthday and loves the color purple :)
To make my card I started with a kraft cardstock base, added a layer of white cardstock and then another layer of kraft.
The kraft mat was die cut using the Stitched Rectangular Frame Die and then stamped using Veramark Ink and the Grainy Wood Background stamp.

Next I die cut the gorgeous new flowers and colored them using my purple copic markers. I die cut the stems from the new Beautiful Day set as well and inked those up with my green copics. The flowers were then arranged onto my card front, the flowers popped up with some foam and the stems glued down leaving alittle room for my to slide some hemp twine under and tie a bow.
The sentiment, from the new set Beautiful Day was stamped onto the smallest Sentiment Label Die and also popped up onto my card.
Some enamel dots completed my card.
