First 3-D Wednesday for 2012 ~ Episode 294

GOOD MORNING & welcome to our 1st 3-D Wednesday of 2012!!! OMG! I swear, I am the WORST one about following my OWN directions!!! I told my designers to make anything but a card or layout & I CAN'T BELIEVE I MADE A CARD!! HAHAHAHAH! I literally just realized it as I am typing this up!!! Well, it's too late to make anything else, so I will have to go w/this! At least my card actually LOOKS 3-D! hehehehe! I'm sorry design team!:( 

Well, for my card I used pattern paper from Echo Park 6x6 pad called "Yours Truly"! LOTS OF YUMMY paper in this one too! My design team & I are showcasing 2 of my stamp sets today! We are featuring "Classmate Valentines" & "100% Sweetness"! I landed up using "100% Sweetness" for my project today & I just LOVE this set to pieces! This particular set comes w/a heart shape die which I used for my red heart on my card today. That ADORABLE little cherub is also from this set!

For one of the layers on this card I used my "XL Label Die" & all the embellishments came from Pro 31 Designs.  This sentiment on the inside of my card is also from "100% Sweetness" stamp set!

Here is my video for you!;)

Now onto my AWESOME Design Team! Click on each one of their names to see how they all created these beautiful 3-D projects! (at least they did the correct projects) lol.....

Throwback Thursday "Cricutless Challenge"!

Good morning & welcome to another Throwback Thursday challenge!

Here are the details for this challenge:

*** This is a "CRICUTLESS" Challenge! Meaning, you are not allowed to use your cricuts, imagines, e2's or your gypsy girls! Basically, we are taking it back "Old School"! You are totally allowed to use punches &/or your cuttlebug!

*** Create a CARD using the colors PURPLE, ORANGE, GREEN & BLACK!

*** Link your project up to Mr. Linky, then leave a comment!

*** Deadline for this challenge will be on Wed, Sept 14th!

*** ONE project per person please!

Today, my design team & myself are showcasing one of my FAVORITE sets "All Around Halloween"! I truly love this set especially because I did all the drawings myself & I am VERY proud of them!;) So I decided that we all use this set & also have it as the giveaway!

Okay, here is my card for you today! I had actually made this awhile ago & realized that my card had to also include Green & Purple with the Orange & Black! Since I'm still not feeling "up to par";), I decided to used this card anyway & add purple stickles to my CUTE little spidey & I also added green stickles to the web! If I was feeling 100%, then I could've made the entire card using the "specified" colors!:( So I had to make this work!;) I also used the "Scallop & Stitched Circle Die" that coordinates w/this stamp set!

sideview of my card!

Monday Madness.... Imagine That!!!

Good morning & welcome to another "Monday Madness......Imagine That!!! For my card today, I actually used my E2 w/an Imagination cartridge for the FIRST time! The BEST thing about this was that I was able to use a Peachy Keen face w/it!!!;) I ONLY cut out the snowman using my E2 & I had to cut the pattern paper in my Imagine, since the E2 does not print! I used the "Enjoy The Seasons" imagine cartridge today! I also used my newest release stamp set "Mixed Holiday Sentiments" which I LOVE LOVE LOVE!;) For the BEAUTIFUL face, I used "Winter Wonderland Face Asst"!

Okie dokie! Now on to my FABULOUS design team!

My Creative Time's July Release Sneaky Peek #3! ~ Episode 216

Hello my Creative Friends & welcome to another SUPER FUN & CUTE sneaky peek!!! OMG! I just LOVE this set and I think it's because I actually get to showcase my own drawings!!! YEP, I did them all by my little self!;) hehehehe! (my son used to say that!) This one is called "All Around Halloween"! This set, as well as our other set we will be featuring tomorrow has a "coordinating" set of "2" dies (SOLD SEPARATELY) that go perfectly w/these "round" sentiments! I am SOOO EXCITED so let's get started! These are the 3 items I made & I show you in my video!

I just LOVE purple & I just LOVE how my little treat pail turned out! A SUPER SIMPLE gift that would put a smile on anyone's face! In my video I show you how I cut out that "soft leather" scallop using my NEW die!;)

This is just a SUPER SIMPLE card I made using one of the sentiments from this set! The cute little pumpkin was cut out @ 1 1/4" (real dial size) from the "Pumpin Carving" solution cartridge! That ADORABLE face is from Peachy Keen & it's from the "Make a Monster Face Asst"! AND that super cute "Embossed Circle Stitch" that is framing my pumpkin so perfectly will also be available during my release on Friday as well~!;)

Here is another card, same concept as the one above it! Peachy Face used for this one is from the "Snow Cutie Face Asst"! Sentiment is from this new release called "All Around Halloween"!

Here is my video showcasing some COOL dies and my new stamps!;)

Now onto my FABULOUS design team who NEVER disappoints! I am BLESSED to have such a SWEET & TALENTED team of ladies!;) Click on each one of their names to take you back to each of their blogs so you can leave them some love~!!;)
