Sunshine - My Creative Time Inspire Me Wednesday

It's Inspire Me Wednesday at My Creative Time and I have a card to share with you.  My inspiration came from Jennifer Rzasa's beautiful card that I absolutely fell in love with, hop on over and take a look at hers here.  I adore the Build A Sunray set and that's why I was so drawn to Jennifer's card.

I kept my card basically the same just using MCT products.  The sentiment is also from the Build A Sunray set and the sun and clouds is from You Are My Sunshine set.  I added a one of the circles from the More Stitched Circles dies behind the sun and cut out the card layer with the Stitched Rectangular Frames and More die.

Baby Shower Umbrella Treat Centerpiece - Dreaming Tree

I've wanted to make this project since the Dreaming Tree release the

Daffodilly Spring SVG Bundle.  I absolutely love all three of the projects in this bundle, which also can be bought separately.  My Son and Daughter in law are having a baby boy so this is perfect!

I left off the top of the Egg to make it look more like an umbrella and just used the daffodil inside as the handle and added a blue bow.  I didn't join the rosette together, I left a hole in the center so I could glue the umbrella tilted, it sat better this way.

The paper collection I used is an older one by Carta Bella Paper Baby Mine Boy, it's so cute.

Mother's Day Card Challenge - Vote For Your Favorite

I made this card for a Mother's Day challenge over at the Paper-Garden.ca, check out the link to get all the details to enter.  There is a nice prize to the store which sells beautiful paper and cardstock, I used some on the card below and totally love it.

I used My Creative Time dies and the cardstock cutout beautifully and the sheets I have are a nice weight, some heavier, between 80lb and 105lb. Love the shine on some of the sheets and the blue is a linen which I love.  I'll list what I used down below.  The only pieces that is not from Paper-Garden are the top and bottom layers for the sentiment and cardbase.

Teacher's Pillow Box Treat - Simon Says Stamp May Card Kit

Finally opened my SSS Card Kit for this month, such cute stamps and I love the Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid Paper.  I made this cute teacher's gift pillow box that I cut out with my Brother ScanNCut.  I also used it to cut out the stamped images, save so much time if you don't have the matching dies.  The SSS cardstock that comes in the kit I used Sunshine, cuts out beautifully with the cutting machine, I really never used it before with it cause I use mostly American Crafts Textured Cardstock but I really like the thickness and it's a change from the textured.

Adding this to Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes Wednesday Challenge.
