My Creative Time April Release - Day 1

Happy Monday!!!

Today is the first day of sneaks for this months My Creative Time April releases. We are featuring a new stamp and die set called "Mom" today.

 My first card, I started with a circle of watercolor paper. I stamped the floral stamp twice and embossed it with white powder. Once I figured out where I wanted my sentiment I stamped and embossed it. Then I used my TH distress ink and blender and added color to the paper. Once I was happy with it, I then attached it to the base of the card. Last, I added the word "mother" and sequins. The circle and wavy circle are both from Bunch of Fun Circle Dies.

This card was my test card, but I like it enough to share it. The only difference is that I used clear embossing powder on my flowers instead of white, like the first card. The sentiment was an after thought, after I added the color, and so I had to use white embossing powder so that you would be able to see it. The watercolor paper is not quite as white as the white base paper and white embossing, so there is a subtle difference in color but I still think it's pretty. The oval and scalloped oval were cut from the Scalloped Stitched Oval Dies.

  

Products

Paper: Papertrey Ink (White, Black),  Strathmore (Bristol Smooth Watercolor Paper 100lb)

Ink: Distress Ink (Picked Raspberry), Versmark (Clear)
Embossing Powder: Ranger (Superfine White)

Stamp faces on the flowers and accent. Stamp sentiment on 2 .5” x 5/8” piece of card stock, use a square punch to create the banner ends. Attach everything to the base of the card and add stitching, around the outer edge, with a white pen.

My Scrap Chick and two other fun sneaks!

Happy Friday!

Whew! What a week this has been! I am sooo glad that it's Friday. It's also Mother's Day, this Sunday, I want to wish all you mama's out there a Happy Mother's Day!

I have a couple fun sneaks for you today, from three different companies! Somehow, the planets must have aligned, because everything worked together perfectly. That doesn't happen very often. :)

My 1st sneak is for Mother's Day!

This Nugget Box is a new file that My Scrap Chick is releasing today! I love it because it holds 8, yes eight, nuggets! Yum! It's super easy to put together too!

I size the box in Make-the-Cut and changed out the window. I wanted something more scalloped to match the floral design on the paper.  The scalloped window came from the Card Essentials Vo.1 Collection. I also created the scalloped pink frame in Make-the-Cut. 

The tag and sentiment are both from My Creative Time. The tag is a die from the Build a Banner kit and the sentiment is from the Many Greetings stamp set. The papers are from Core'dinations and Bella Blvd.

So... the second "sneak" that I have for you is this yummy yellow hemp twine! You can purchase it from my friend Liz at Liz's Paper Loft, she is opening a boutique! She is working on getting it filled up with lots of fun things! It should be up and running on Monday morning!

My second box is for Father's Day!

 I wanted this box to look like a man's flannel shirt. So again, I traded out the existing window shape with a pocket shaped window. The pocket shape is from My Scrap Chicks, Flutterby file. 

The papers are all from October Afternoon's Sasaparilla collection and the twine is from The Twinery. I also wrapped the nuggets in paper to make them purdy. :)

The tag and sentiment are both from My Creative Time. The tag is a die called the Curly Label die and the sentiment is from the new (This is 3rd and final sneak.), Here's Looking at You! stamp & die set.  Have you seen this set yet? It's the PERFECT set to have for Father's Day!


Thanks so much for stopping by today!

I hope you have a wonderful Weekend!

Imagination Monday!

Happy Monday!

First off I want to thank everyone for all the design team love! I am super excited that Emma asked me to be a part of her team and I can't wait to start creating with her new stamps. 

This week for Imagination Monday, Emma asked those of us, on the design team, who own the stamp set "Mom You Rock" to create a project. It just so happened that I was working on a project for a friend and I had designed it around one of the stamps from that set.  

Originally, I was going to make her a card, but I decided that a small wall plaque might be more fun.

 While I was making it, all I could think about was a TV show that I watched when I was little called The Partridge Family.

I also kind of hate to admit it... but every time I look at it, I get a little choked up and emotional. I really, really love it!

 

  All of the cuts are from Lettering Delights SVG files. The birds were cut from the Rise and Shine set and the frame is from the Felt Owl Right set.  

**Note: The Rise and Shine set is not yet listed on the website for sale. You have to put something into your cart and then click "purchase," once you do that, it will take you to another page, where you will be able to purchase "Rise and Shine" as a pre-sale item, right now it only costs $2. Then you can delete the other item if you wish.**

 

Run don't walk and grab it (on sale) while you can!

My friend has twin girls and two boys. 

The papers are from Papertrey Ink and BoBunny. The twine is from The Twinery.

The sentiment stamp is from Emma's set Mom You Rock stamp set, you can get it here.

I see a couple more of these in my future! Well... before next Sunday. :)

You still have time to enter my give-away, click here to see my "A royal Wedding Blog Hop" post. I am giving away two sets of Peachy Keen Stamps. I will be choosing the winner, via random.org, at 9pm (pst) tonight. The winner will be announced tomorrow morning.
