My Creative Time 2014 DT Call

I was so excited to hear that Emma at My Creative Time was having a DT Call! I've been an admirer for quite some time, and couldn't wait to enter for a chance to design for her using her amazing products. We had to design a layout, a card and a 3-D project, and I tried to use the few MCT products I had that just arrived from my Black Friday order....Wish me luck!!!

MPS Design Team Day - Teacher Gifts

Welcome to My Pink Stamper Design Team post day! Today's theme is Teacher appreciation gifts. I was so excited for this project, as a teacher myself, because I had seen something on Pinterest that I've been wanting to make for a while...a gift caddy. Here's how it turned out....

Most Sonic drive-thrus are more than willing to give you one or two drink caddies for free, so I thought this would be an inexpensive way to put a gift together. I added a soda, some sweet treats and and apple (of course) to finish it off. I used My Pink Stamper School Days to make my own "background" paper and I LOVE the way it turned out!! I used My Pink Stamper Yummy-licious for the "to/from" tag. The apple is from the Cricut Preserves cartridge, and the "for my teacher" is from my fave font, Don Juan.

"Happy Father's Day" with Whimsical Wednesday

Can you believe it's almost father's day? Today's challenge at Whimsical Wednesday is in honor of dad's everywhere - a Father's Day card! I made a gift card holder that doubles as a card....I'm not going to lie though, I needed a gift card to use in my creation and I took one out of my wallet that I forgot was even still in there. Guess where I'm having lunch tomorrow?! :)

The insdie...

And a different view so you can see the gift card...

If you'd like to give it a try, you can find directions on how to put it together HERE. I don't have the nestabilities, so I just use an exacto knife. It's really easy!

This week our sponsor is Joy from Joy's Life. One random winner will receive Joy's stamp set called You're So Punny. Please click here to visit Joys Product page. Thank you Joy!

Ready to POP!

I am so very excited to be a guest designer today at She's a Sassy Lady! Starting next month, I'll be joining the wonderful groups of ladies that make up the Design Team for Sheila's blog!!

Here's what I made for my post today....

I saw the cuttest baby shower invitations online, and I loved that it wasn't just pink/blue. I have a baby shower coming up in the next few weeks, and a few of us decided to put together a basket for the mommy-t0-be. I made this little treat (inspired by the invitations) to include in the basket - hope she likes it!

The box is the matchbox from TBBM (outside only) :)

There's Cash in Your Stash - CWC DT Project

Today's challenge at Cooking With Cricut is in honor of tax day...use something from your stash that is over a year old, or use money in your project somewhere. This was no easy task, but I must say that once I thought of a piggy bank, I was so excited to finally get that Toy Story cartridge out for the first time in a very long time! I had a lot of fun with this project and actually thought it turned out better than I expected! :)

Now on to my project....

As soon as I found out I was going to be participating in the hop, the design for this card automatically came to my mind and I went with it. Amazingly enough, what I had in mind is what came out on paper (how often does that happen?! lol). I used Simply Charmed for the bottle and glasses and Don Juan for the 2011 title. The cloud was welded together with some rectangle in order to give it the "exploding-out-of-the-bottle" look. Hope you like it!



Thanks for stopping by! Your next stop will be Cassie at Scrappin' Palce
