MCT Tag It Tuesday


It's Tag It Tuesday with My Creative Time!  For my tag today, I just had to play some more with the new The Adventure Begins stamp and die set!  I love the little scooters on this set!  I die cut them out of Strathmore Bristol Smooth Cardstock and then colored them with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens.  The tag itself was made with the Tag Dies, and I found the perfect little sentiment in the Teeny Tag Holidays stamp set!

Dinosaur Birthday Card


One of my students love dinosaurs, so I had to use a cut from the Cricut Dinosaur Tracks cartridge for his birthday card.  For the background, I used the My Creative Time Stitched Rectangular Frame Die, along with one of the More Stitched Edges Dies.  The sentiment, which I heat embossed with Hero Arts White Embossing Powder, is from MCT's Prehistoric Holidays.

MCT Inspire Me Wednesday


It's Inspire Me Wednesday with My Creative Time, and today I made a birthday card inspired by this fun card by Laura Bassen.  I loved her cut up watercolor background!  I thought it would be fun to make a brick design for mine.  I started by using Tim Holtz distress inks and just watercoloring stripes of different colors on Strathmore watercolor paper.  When the stripes dried, I flicked on some water droplets and then blotted them off with paper towel.  Then I used one of the More Stitched Rectangular Dies to die cut lots of little rectangles and adhered them onto my card base in a brick pattern.

I also watercolored the cute turtle from the new Sea You Soon set.  I love this adorable little guy!  For the sentiment, also from this set, I die cut one of the Ribbon End Banners.

50th Birthday Card


I made this fun card for a friend's 50th birthday, creating the background using the Papertrey Ink Boho Rounds stamp set.  I cut the numbers from the Cricut Nursery Rhymes cartridge and finished off the sentiment with a stamp from PTI's Big Birthday Wishes!
