Another great set of cards!! When you first look at them they look like there's so much too them, but when you really study them you see how simple the design is. What makes them look so great is the materials used, the color scheme, & the creativeness you put into each card! amazing job!

MCT December Sneak Peek #3

GOOD MORNING my sweet creative friends! I hope you have your coffee because I couldn't help myself, I made lots again today!;) Are you ALL ready for my FAVORITE sneaks of them all??? Today we are showcasing our last 2 new dies! They are: "Stitched Scallop Heart Die" & "Stitched Postage Frame Die"!

For my 1st tag, I made,I used my "Tag Die" with the "Stitched Scallop Heart Die" & I just LOVE LOVE LOVE it to pieces! This can be used on cards, layouts, 3-D projects etc....  All I know is that this die will make ANY OF YOUR projects look BEAUTIFUL! I also used my new little (soon to be released) "Stitched Heart Layering Dies" along w/the banner that goes w/my "Vintage Stitched Label Dies"! The sentiments "Valentine" & "you are the best" are both from my (soon to be released) stamp set "Lots of Love"!

 

 The paper is My Mind's Eye "Lost & Found Oliver" (my NEW FAVORITE) along w/some yellow "Seam Binding Ribbon" & "Kraft color Thin Hemp"!

Now for my next tag, I ALSO used my new "Stitched Scallop Heart Die"!  I made this using my "Tag Die" , and my new (soon to be released) "Love Collage Background Stamp"! This tage was made in 15 minutes! All I did was stamped my "Love Collage Background" stamp onto my tag using some red ink, added the "Stitched Scallop Heart Die" & the smallest heart from the "Stitched Heart Layering Dies"! Then I finished it off by adding some red sheer ribbon along w/a pretty "Clear Button" and some "Kraft thin Hemp" (which I can't live without)!;)

And there you have a simple but PERFECT little tag to use as a bookmark, you can add it to a gift or just write a little sweet message on the back of it & give it to your favorite person!;)

For my next project, I made a simple card using my other FAVORITE new die "Stitched Postage Frame Die"! This card was SOOO SIMPLE to make & I just LOVED how it came out! I just used some new Echo Park Valentine paper & layered it on a black card base. I added some "May Arts" ribbon, "Kraft thin Hemp" &  PRETTY "Shiny Button"!

***Isn't that "FOREVER" stamp set I used ~ just darling?***

I designed this special stamp as a "THANK YOU" for all of your support throughout 2012! With all of my ups & downs this year, you were ALL here to support me in any way possible! For that, I will FOREVER be grateful to each & everyone of you!  With that said, I am offering this mini stamp set for FREE to the first 150 shoppers starting @8am PST tomorrow, Dec 31st. NO SPECIAL CODE is needed. If you are amongst the 150 shoppers, you will automatically have it included w/your order! ONE per shopper please. If you miss out on being one of the lucky shoppers who get this for free, no worries because I will be offering it for sale for those of you who "Have to have it!";)

Okay, for my last card (another simple one), I used my new "Stitched Postage Frame Die" along w/my new (soon to be released stamp & die set) "Chocolate Greetings"!

Here you can see how I popped everything up!

For the background in my little frame, I covered it using my clear chunky glitter! As far as the embossing folder goes, it was an old one I had picked up ions ago & I don't know what the name of it is nor if it's even available anymore:( But, you can use ANY embossing folder you have...or NOT!;) I also cut out my "Chocolate Die" using some silver cardstock from Stampin up!

Here is my video for you today!

MCT December Sneak Peek #2

GOOD MORNING my sweet & creative friends! Welcome to our 2nd day of our December sneaky peeks! Oh boy, do we have a FUN one for you today!;) Today my AWESOME design & myself are showcasing a new set called: "Chocolate Greetings"! This SUPER FUN set has a total of 35 stamps along w/2 coordinating dies! You can do SO MUCH......the possibilities are simply endless w/this set! For my first project here today, I made a super cute topper. When I was creating this set, I just KNEW I HAD to "Peachify" my chocolate die & that is EXACTLY what I did.  I think she came out SUPER CUTE! For my topper I used my "XL Label Die" & my "Stitched XL Label Die". The sentiment and flag banner are also included in this fabulous new set!

For my next project (which I just LOVE) I make a cute party favor using my "Bubblegum Treat Box". I got an email from someone who needed a QUICK idea for an anniversary party favor for 20 people & I came up with this! This is why I LOVE my products because you can make something so PERFECT & Classy looking in no time at all! 

All I did was:

 ~ran the treat box using vellum paper through my machine

~ filled w/chocolate kisses 

~tied some seam binding ribbon on each end

~ added some tulle

~stamped the sentiment onto the flag banner

  ~then added the chocolate die w/the coordinating flag banner die!

This was seriously "effortless", but look how pretty it came out!

The paper I used for the dies are by Teresa Collings "Now & Then".  The paper I used for my treat box was just some vellum paper I had in my stash!;)

Here is a side view of it! Just think of all the compliments you would get if you made these favors for YOUR next party!;)

 

Now onto my last project! I couldn't be done unless I made a Valentine item for you today! I decided to make a 3x6 card (which I love this size) for you. I thought it would be cute to use my new dies & just add 3 chocolate kisses going up & down w/some Valentine messages!  Again, a VERY SIMPLE, but CUTE card that was put together in no time at all.  The 3 sentiments you see here are including in this set as well! 

I used my sewing machine to adhere my blue layer of paper onto my red cardstock.

 Here is my video for you today!
