My Creative Time - Designer Challenge

 

Here is my creation for the My Creative Time Designer Challenge.

 

The challenge is hosted by Shar and she chose a color challenge with the additional challenge of including three flowers on the project.

 

 

I had the perfect 6x6 paper pad for this color challenge: Buttercup by LilyBeeDesign.

All of the patterned paper used was with this paper pad.

 

The flower, leaves, & chevron border was cut using the Close To My Heart Artiste Cricut Cartridge:

Feature Button: Accent 2 <Shift> - Button 24, cut at 3.5

The border is a tag welded together using my Gypsy.

Accent 4 - Button 27, cut at 5.5

The leaves can be found on Accent 3 <Shift> - Button 2, cut at 1.25

 

To finish my card I used a My Creative Time Die (Curly Label Die) and Stamp Set (Many Greetings)

So that's it from me...hope you enjoyed! :)

I am also linking this project to Pink Cricut's Link up Tuesday.

Master Crafter Challenge hosted by Pink Cricut

I am so excited to be one of the participants in this challenge hosted by Sarah at Pink Cricut. 

There are 100 participants who each got a box with the following items:

 

Scissor Mouse sponsored by Westcott ,

DCWV Rockstar mat stack sponsored by DCWV Deals,

Cotton Bag Sponsored by State line Bag Co. ,

1/2 sheet of Rhinestones sponsored by Queen & Co.,

Sentiment stamp sponsored by Pink by Design,

Assorted Buttons.

The participants were asked to incorporate as much from their goodies as they could in creating their project.

So here is what I came up with:

 

 

 

With the Holiday's coming up I wanted to make an inexpensive homemade gift with the Cotton Bag provided...so I made a Pedicure in a Bag.  My bag and card are Birthday themed but this can easily be made into a Christmas theme as well.

Since this is a pediure in a bag I just couldn't resist using Pink by Design's Shoe Addict stamp set.

The sentiment is hard to read, but it says "Have a Glamorous Birthday"

I love how easy it was to stamp and color on this bag.

I also added some Iron on Vinyl that I had in my stash...this was cut using my Cricut.

CTMH Artiste Cartridge - Accent 1 <Shift>, Button 1 cut at .96.

To finish off the bag, I of course had to add some bling. 

I did this with the Queen & Co Rhinestones 

from my Mystery Box.

 

 

Inside my bag I included a Buffer, Nail File, Nail Clippers, Cuticle Pushers (which can all be purchased at the Dollar Tree) and Jamberry Nail Shields.

With a set of the nail shields cut in half they fit in the bag just perfect and my gift costs under $15!

 

For my A2 (4.25x5.5) card I used paper from the DCWV Rockstar Mat Stack and the Queen & Co Rhinestones provided in my Mystery Box.

The sentiment is another Pink by Design stamp set called Illuminate.

I just love this sentiment and think it goes perfectly with the bag!

 

For all of my Cricut Cuts I used the CTMH Artiste Cartridge.

Cuts on the Card:

The cut with the heart paper is on Feature Accent 4 <Shift>, Button # 31, cut at 3.75.

The Dress Form is on Feature Accent 1, Button # 11, cut at 3.0.

Then the top layer is the same button and size with Feature Accent 1 <Shift>

 

Well that's it from me. 

I can't wait to see what everyone creates!

 

Thanks for stopping by,

Twisted Tuesday Challenge - Flying by to Say Hi

 

This is my first time participating in the Twisted Tuesday Challenge.

I found this blog challenge through a group I am in on Facebook:

Homespun Friends - Blog Challenges.

This is a great resource for finding fun challenges all in one spot.

 

 

The challenge was to include something that flies in your project with a twist of using at least 3 different embellishments.

 

I created an A2 size card 5.5 x 4.25

The embossed layer was cut at 5.25 x 4.

 

The Hot Air Balloon and clouds were cut from my Cricut.

Cricut Cuts:

Close to my Heart Artiste Cartridge

Hot Air Balloon: Feature Button Accent 1 & Accent 1 <Shift> - Button 40, cut at 3.75

Clouds: Feature Button Accent 2 - Button 40, cut at 1.0

 

My embellishments were:

Twine - The Twinery Honeydew

Dry Embossing - Cuttlebug Swiss Dots

Stickles - Star Dust

Brads - Joann Brand

Stamp Sentiment - My Creative Time's Teeny Tag Greetings (which comes with the teeny tag die)

 

The paper is from a 6x6 paper pad - Three Bugs in a Rug...Ellie

I love creating cards with these paper pads since the papers/colors all corrdinate so well.

 

Thanks for stopping by,

Cropped Mystery Box Challenge - Challenge 3

 

Here is my entry for Challenge 3 that I am participating in for Megan Elizabeth's Cropped Mystery Box Challenge.

 

The challenge was to use Alpha letters as Subway Art.

I used the Alpha letters that came in my Mystery Box...since they were red I went with a Christmas card.  This is fun to get some Christmas cards done early.

 

I also used the Authentique "Curiosity" paper also provided in my Mystery Box.
