Good morning & welcome to another 3-D Wednesday! For today, my AWESOME design team & myself created projects using a "Recycled item"!
For my recycled item I used for my CUTE little purse treat, it is the handle part! It is the part that kinda looks like leather...it was used to attach a price tag to one of their new hoodies that they had gotten for christmas! I don't know about you, but I tend to hold on to EVERYTHING because ya never know what you can use it for later!;) I explain it better in my video below how I wrapped it around a black wired to give it support! For my treat box, I used my "3x3 Trifold die". I just LOVE how it looks like a cute purse!;)
You can see how I put this together in my video below! To close up my cute little purse treat, I used 2 brads & closed it using some red thin hemp! I just think my "Love Collage" background stamp is the PERFECT stamp to use to make a quick project!
I hope you were all inspired to use YOUR recycled items today!;) ALso, you have until 3pm PST today to enter into my last challenge which was HERE! I have a SPECIAL SURPRISE for one lucky winner!
THANK YOU SOOO Much for stopping by! I will see you all back here tomorrow! Have a FABULOUS day my sweet friends! xoxo's
GOOD MORNING & welcome to "My Creative Time"!;) I hope all of you are doing well! My boys just went back to school yesterday:( I NEVER like when they have to go back escpecially since I get so used to them just being here w/me, but I kow they need to be at school! Now I just need to get back into the swing of things here!
Okay, I have a CUTE & VERY SIMPLE card for you today! This card can be done in NO TIME AT ALL.:) All I did was use my "Lower Case Fun Dies" & cut out "love", then used pop dots & added the hemp to make them look like a cute banner! Then I used the word "you" from my "Love Collage Background" stamp!
Here is the inside of the card using a sentiment from "Lots of Love"! Simple but CUTE & I love how my card came out today!:)

Another great set of cards!! When you first look at them they look like there's so much too them, but when you really study them you see how simple the design is. What makes them look so great is the materials used, the color scheme, & the creativeness you put into each card! amazing job!

GOOD MORNING my sweet creative friends & welcome to our first day of sneak peeks for our December release! Well, there is TONS to see, so let's get right to it!
Today my AWESOME design team & myself are showcasing 3 new items that will be available for purchase on Monday, Dec 31st @ 8am PST! They are "Lots of Love", "Love Collage Background" & "Stitched Heart Layering dies". Can I just say that I LOVE LOVE LOVE this release! The sentiments are so PERFECT.
For my first project here, I created a tag using my "Tag Dies". I decided to do a "manly" one here today & I thought this 6x6 paper pad by My Mind's Eye "Oliver" would make a PERFECT masculine & it could even get more glitz up & look more feminine as well! I just LOVE everything about this! I wanted to show you how you can layer the "Stitched Heart Layering dies" as well as showcasing them one at a time! They are really pretty in real life too:) I do have to say that this was the EASIEST tag to throw together! All I did was add the hearts w/lots of pop dots, stamped my sentiment from "Lots of Love" added some hemp, seam binding ribbon & coordinating buttons to go w/the paper! OH & I finished it off by adding a "hint" of chunky glitter!;) hehehe!
Here is another view of it so you can see how I popped everything up! Love Love Love!
Okay, I just LOVE how this cute little card turned out! I thought it was "Simple & Classy" lookin!;) I just LOVE the newest "Stitched Heart Layering dies" along w/the newest stamp set "Lots of Love"! This stamp set is PERFECT because it is full of fun sentiments that you can make cute little note cards for your kids or your second half! hehehehe!;) These would be PERFECT to put in their lunch & I bet they would have a HUGE smile on their face when they see it! For the card I used my "3x3 trifold card die"! SUPER EASY to make, just add the heart dies, stamp your sentiment & close it using a cute little mini paper clip! OR you can put it inside a 3x3 envelope! OH, and don't forget to write your little message on the inside for them!;)
Okay, I just LOVE this new stamp set: "Lots of Love" because not only can you use it for Valentines, it would also make BEAUTIFUL wedding/anniversary cards! I decided to make this pretty wedding card for a friend! I plan on making a matching 3x3 envelope using vellum paper & attaching this card to the couples gift!
Here is a closer view of it! Using the "Stitched Heart Layering dies", I decided to used the negative part of the paper for the top layer of my card here~! But I ALSO used the actual stitched hearts as well! In my video below I demoed how I made this! This pretty paper is "Teresa Collins TELL YOUR STORY 6x6 paper pad" along w/the coordinating buttons! The pretty sentiment is from my new "Lots of Love" stamp set! Last I finished it up w/some seam binding ribbon, thin hemp & some clear chunky glitter!
For this FABULOUS card, I used the new "Love Collage Background" stamp! This stamp WILL FIT on the front of an entire A2 size card!:) I used clear embossing powder & heat embossed it onto my kraft cardstock! For the "Love", I just used white embossing powder along w/some glitter to make it look shimmery then I popped it up using some pop dots! I used the "Stitched Heart Layering dies" & poked 2 holes in each of them using my paper piercer to make them look like buttons!
Here is another view of it! This is a better picture so you can see how shiney & pretty it is!;)
For this card set, I decided to "re-introduce" to you "Classmate Valentines"! This is a set I came out with last year & I just LOVE this set for children. I thought it would match PERFECT w/our new "Stitched Heart Layering dies"! I made a 3x3 card using my "Scallop & Stitched Circle Die" that went in the center of my card! I stamped a cute stamp from my newest set called "Lots of Love" onto the envelope so it won't be so plain! For my "3x3 Fancy Envelope Die", I just used regular copy paper for it & it came out AWESOME!;)
Here is what the back of the envelope looks like! I used some repositionable adhesive & adhered the larger heart to the back to act as a sticker to keep the envelope closed!;) You can see in my video below how this cute set was made!
Here is my video for you today!;)
