MCT Tag It Tuesday: Celebrate Birthday Tag

MCT 43rd Release Blog Hop: Scoops of Love Card

Welcome, welcome to another FABULOUS Release Blog Hop with My Creative Time. You've probably hopped here from Ruthie's blog, but if not, head on over to Emma's blog to start from the tippity-top!

Today, I'm showcasing the new set, You Make Life Sweet. With lots of sweet layers, this set lets you build your own treat! What's better than that?

I added a little heart "cherry" to the top scoop from the Seasonal Greetings set. Keeping a large white space, really helps the patterned scoops to pop off the card. And I'm sure the many layers of pop dots help that, too!

The first 150 shoppers will receive this set FREE!

MCT 43rd Edition Sneak Peek: Chalkboard Birthday Bag

Gift cards are such an easy (and appreciated) gift to give, right? But it can be boring just shoving them in a card - even if the card is super cute. My Creative Time has so many awesome dies to use to package your gift cards, and Emma has added another!

Of course, this sweet little paper bag is good for more than just gift cards (jewelry, small trinkets) and I just love how cute some tissue paper looks peeking out of the top.

This die needs to be cut out twice and taped together to make the bag. Emma made the holes for the handles the perfect size to add some jumbo eyelets to finish it off. And if the bag wasn't cute enough, this set comes with some awesome chalkboard inspired sentiments.

MCT Die of the Month: Belly Thank You Card

Hello! Today we're featuring a new Die of the Month: Stitched Message Bubble Dies. I have a lot of thank you cards to send out right now and the "thanks" die from this set makes designing these cards a snap!

Now, you might be asking, "Veronica, why is there a big belly on your thank you card?" Well...

We're pregnant!!! We've received so much love and support from family and friends, and even a few gifts! So, yes, I've got quite a few cards to get out in the mail!

MCT Made In Minutes: Party Animal Birthday Card

Hey there! It's another Made In Minutes day with the MCT design team. If you've ever crafted with me, you know that NOTHING is ever "made in minutes" by my hands. I'm not a very efficient crafter. But theoretically, this card could be made in minutes if I chose to make it again. Does that count?

This card was sent to my Grandma last week for her birthday. See, Grandma? I told you that your card hadn't been posted on my blog yet! Tada! I used several MCT dies to give this card dimension and texture. The modern color scheme really make it pop.

MCT Products Used
Let's Celebrate ("PARTY" dies)
Stitched Party Dies (banners)
You Had Me At Meow (cat)
Birthday Buddies (hat)
Alpha Pack ("ANIMAL")
Bunch of Fun Circle Dies (wavy circle layer)

My little flufferbottom, Harley

I colored the kitty with my Copics and tried my best to make him look like my own kitty, Harley.

That's it for me today! You can see more projects that you can Make In Minutes on Emma's blog.

I hope you were inspired!
