MCT "Made in Minutes!"

GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome back to another "Made in Minutes!"

First of all, before I share my card, I just want to say a HUGE "CONGRATS" to Anthony & his team! These boys played their hearts out this weekend & went 4-0!  They are the Gold Division Champs! ;) 

For those of you who are parents of children who play sports, I am almost POSITIVE you feel like me....... even though we are not playing, doesn't it sometimes feel like you are out there on the field with them??? lol...... I have to admire these boys because is was REALLY hot this entire weekend & they STILL played hard & got 4 "W's" this weekend! ;) DEFINITELY a PROUD Mom here! :) 

(My Anthony is the first person all the way to the left of this pic)

Okay, now onto my card!  I always  LOVE to mix & match my older products with my newer ones! 

For my card below, I used a couple of older sets, "Happy Thoughts" & "Bee Happy"!  I used these sets along with my newest die set "Scalloped Stitched Rectangular Dies".   I just LOVE how my card came out & the BEST part is that it took me 20 minutes to make from beginning to end!  It might have been quicker, but it took me a little bit to color in my bee! :)  I used my FAVORITE markers "Zig Clean Color Brush Markers!"  I simply LOVE these markers because they are reasonably priced & you can have all 80 colors for a decent price.  I was SUPER HAPPY when these markers came out because I just KNEW that I would not be able to afford every copic maker! lol....  So these markers were the right choice for ME! ;)  They blend beautifully & I LOVE all of the colors, very BRIGHT & CHEERY!  

I listed all the MCT products & links to my card below!

Stitched Message Bubble Dies

Here is my card I created using this FUN die set!  I thought it would look cute paired up w/my other set "Bee Happy!"   I tried to keep this card as simple as possible, but it was hard NOT to add sequins AND twine! ;)  At first I wasn't going to add the twine, but I felt it was missing something without it!  Hope you like it! :) You can see in my video below how I put this card together!

33rd Release June Sneak Peek day #3

GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome to day 3 of our sneaky peeks! There is a "buzz" going around that we have some AWESOME peeks for you today! ;) hehehe!

Today we are showcasing 3 new items! They are "Stitched Honey Comb Dies", "Stitched Bees & Beehive Dies" & the coordinating stamp set "Bee Happy!"

For my first card, I used all 3 sets!  I used the honey comb die a little different! I cut the die out & used it as a stencil~! Then I mixed some yellow ink w/my white embossing paste to make the paste a pretty yellow color~!  The little swirly heart stamp is from "Live Love Laugh & Be Happy" & the BEE HAPPY sentiment is from the set we showcased on Monday called "Happy Thoughts!" The bigger heart came from "Stitched heart layer dies" and the tiny heart came from "4x4 journal die & more!" Also, I die cut the cutie bee using vellum paper~! Then I stamped the bees using black Staz-on ink! Then colored the stripes w/my Tim Holtz mustard seed marker!

For my next card, I used 2 of the sets which are the "Stitched Bees & Beehive Dies" & the coordinating stamp set "Bee Happy!" 

Once again, I cut out the bee using vellum paper & I used black embossing powder to heat emboss it! THen I colored in the stripes using my mustard seed Tim Holtz marker! I just LOVE how it pops! 

I used some black hemp twine to make it look like it is hanging from the top of my card! I cut the beehive out using watercolor paper because I knew I wanted to water color it! Then I cute a little piece just enough to cut out the circle part of the die so it could look like the bee just flew out of the beehive! 

These are such FUN sets to play with & the possibilities are endless! ;) 

Here is my video for you today!
