Designer Challenge

Good morning my creative friends & welcome to another "Designer Challenge"!

For this challenge, we are using this ADORABLE photo inspiration! You know how I LOVE Halloween, so this photo makes my heart happy. :)

First up, before I get started w/my card. Yesterday was a pretty rough day for us here. My sister had to put down her fur baby :'( It was the saddest thing ever. For those of you who have pets of your own, it's like losing a little 4 legged family member. Well, after 3 surgery's, her "Raider Girl" ended up getting a massive infection & her organs were starting to shut down :( I was a very sad day & I just couldn't get myself to do a video. But I made myself get into my craft room & make a card for all of you. I needed this to keep my mind busy.

Okay, now onto my card. It is a 4x4 card & all I did was a lot of layering. I stamped the spiderwebs on some vellum, then stamped the BOO onto some card stock & hand cut it out. Next I cut out my ghost die twice, layered it using pop dots. Then I adhered it to my card & popped up the BOO using more pop dots! Then added the yellow hemp twine along w/some silver sequins. I was happy with this card, hope you all enjoy it too. :)

MCT products used:
~ Fright Night
~ Treats for my Sweet
~ Stitched Spooky Ghost Die

Designer Challenge ~ Miss Cathryn

Welcome to My Creative Time's Designer Challenge. This is Cathryn from In The Pink and I am thrilled that it is my turn to host! My Challenge is to make something Spring Related and be sure to have a Die cut on it somewhere!

I decided this would be my challenge because I NEED the warm weather to get started. When the end of winter drags on I start to be inneed of some serious outside time! I thrive on sunshine, green grass and flowers! I think I can see some of my plants starting to poke up through the soil so I'm sure spring is just about here!

I used quite a few of Emma's dies on my two projects. They all go so nicely together!

I layered the "Scallop and Stitched Circle dies" on top of the "Vintage Stitched Label Die". These made a nice backround for the flower which is from Emma's "Rolled Flower Dies". Inside the package are Chocolate Covered Sunflower Seeds. I got them at a local shop and they are delicious! The packaging was not very pretty so I tore it off and made my own.

I attached the flower with a glue gun so it was sure to stay on securely. The cute little bunny is a charm attached with some pretty hemp. The bunny die is in "To My Best Peep" stamp and die set. I embossed it with some UTEE for extra durability and shine.

The flower is sprinkled with some Diamond Dust to give it some sparkle.

I used the banner die from "Chocolate Greetings" to put "Thanks" on the top and the Thanks is from "Chunky Jar Accessories". The bottom banner is from "Vintage Stitched Label Dies" and the Sentiment is from "More of My Favorite Sayings".

I used my sewing machine to zigzag stitch aroung the entire card and also to straight stitch the burlap in place.

List of Supplies:

All Stamp and Die sets are available at My Creative Time

True Friends 6x6 paper pad, Carta Bella and Hemp - Liz's Paper Loft Boutique

Lavendar Moon and White Card Stock - Papertrey Ink

Rose Leaf Punch - MS Crafts

UTEE (Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel)

Burlap and Sparkly Pompom - Michaels

Heart Pins - Dritz
White Crinkle Ribbon and Bazzill Button
Fresh Picked Raspberry Distress Ink

Now here are the wonderful projects for today's challenge from the MCT Design Team!!

We would love to see what you come up with for this "Spring Theme" Challenge! Add your project with Mr. Linky below!!!

Have a Great Day!

Love and Hugs,

Cathryn :)

Miss Emma (it's ME) ;)

Isn't this challenge by Miss Cathryn SUPER FUN? I made my FAVORITE EVER lollipop holder!

My "Stitched Lollipop Holder" die has to be one of my best dies ever! It is the PERFECT small gift for your classmates, teachers, mail lady/man, family members etc..... I've even used them for place cards on the dining table for any occasion! The last thing I made w/these were birthday favors for a friend! This die can be used for SOOOO MUCH & I just love it! Even though this die made it debut 1 1/2 year ago, it's STILL my go to die. Basically I just used pop dots to pop everything up & added my favorite boa to the bottom!
