Spring Is Here...

Hello Everyone!!
I have a card to share using a set from SVG Cutting Files!


This cute little girl with umbrella is from the Let It Rain set, it comes with a bunch of svgs.  I bought the Simon Says Stamps Raindrop stencil and wanted to try it out, this file was totally perfect.  The grass and background were cutout using dies from Jaded Blossom which the sentiment is from also.  I created the clouds with a template I made using the cloud dies from My Creative Time.  The cute face is from Peachy Keen Stamps Sweet & Innocent Assortment pack and finished up with some Orangesicle Trendy Twine.  Boy I really utilized my stash from some of my favorite shops!!!

Spread Your Wings and Fly! - My Creative Time Throwback Thursday

Hi Everyone!!
Welcome to "Throwback Thursday~Do Over" with My Creative Time!
This is such a fun theme, I have so many projects I would love to do over again it was hard to single one out.  I ended up picking this butterfly card I created about a year and a half ago, I just loved the bokeh technique.




I used some Strathmore Watercolor Paper and the blue from the Faber-Castell Metallic Gel Sticks to create the watercolor background.  For the bokeh dots I used one of the little circle stamps from MCT's Bough's of Holly with some Tumbled Glass distress ink and the same gel stick I used for the background.  The butterfly and sentiment is from the Live, Love, Laugh & Be Happy set, cut out with the Pretty Butterflies & Dragonfly die and stamped with tumbled glass.  The background was die cut using the large Stitched Rectangular Frame Die.  A simple card but the addition of the watercolor makes it so much nicer!!




This is the original using distress ink, gel stick and a pencil eraser to create the bokeh effect.

Irish You A Happy St. Patty's Day - My Creative Time Trending Now

Hi everyone!!
Today's Trending Now theme for My Creative Time is to
create a neutral project with a pop of color.
So I used the You're My Pot Of Gold Set and cut the shamrocks
in that pretty green metallic cardstock I was lucky to score
at the dollar store a couple of weeks ago.
The paper I bought at Michaels, it's perfect for the neutral background
and the burlap also came in the same cardstock stack.

Buzzin' By To Say Hi

Hi Everyone!
I just received these two coordinating sets from My Creative Time
and had to make a quick card, I think they look so cute with the Peachy Keen Faces!


I created the background from the cloud dies, I just glued them down on a piece of cardstock and keep it as a template.  I love how it comes out with Tim Holtz Tumbled Glass Distress Ink.

Billiards Anyone - SVG Cutting Files New Kawaii Billiards!

Hello Everyone! It's my turn over at SVG Cutting Files Blog!

I’m showcasing the new Kawaii Billiard set, which will be available this Friday.

I made three cards so you could see all the cute items in this set.

First card, which I think is one of my favorites, uses the 8 ball and pool stick.


Since it’s all about billiards I though a card with a felt background would be very cute and I really love how it looks. I cut the felt using a 4" x 5 1/4" die from Jaded Blossom's Card Mat Dies. The circle sentiments are from JB's, Birthday Candies set and the sentiment and tag are from JB's Sweet Birthday Wishes and Mini Tag Dies 2 sets.


My second card uses the pool stick and chalk, so cute, sentiment and die is from Jaded Blossom's The Perfect Match and Mini Tag Dies 2 sets.


Third up is the pool stick with rack, I made a quick and easy pool table background for it. Sentiment and die both are from JB’s Birthday Candies and Candy Charms & Banner sets.

Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful day!!

You're So Tweet birdhouse - My Creative Time Inspiration Wednesday

Hi Everyone, it's Inspirational Wednesday over at My Creative Time!  I was browsing through Pinterest and saw a bunch of adorable birdhouses made from milk cartons so I used the new milk carton die and created my own, what a quick and easy project!


I cut a hole in the back so I could slide a battery tealight inside, it looks so cute lit up.  I trimmed the legs off the little chickie to make him look more like a bird.  For the roof I used the scalloped stitched rosette dies, I love these dies, I used them a lot for other things besides rosettes.
