Designer Challenge over at MCT

This challenge for My Creative Time was created by Leanne of Created by Leanne.  I used the sketch to come up with a Father's Day card for my dad.  This is what the sketch looks like:


Here is my take on the card:



I used MCT's "It's All About Me" stamp set"Stitched Journaling" die, "Stitched Restroom Peeps" die,"What's Growing On?" stamp and die set, "Here's Lookin' At You" stamp and die set.  The journaling die I stamped with a Stampin' Up Cranberry Crisp pad from forever ago along with the circle O and heart from a Stampin' Up Much Love set.  It is time for me to dive into my HUGE stash of crafty items and start making more use of them.

Thanks for looking.

Designer Card Challenge on MCT

It's another new challenge by Glora on MCT Designer Challenge.  Make 3x3 cards, and for an extra challenge have critters on your four cards.  So I made both.  So here are my designs.

Here are the critter cards. Love the way they turned out, and so much for for summer!




The next 3x3 cards are without critters.  I love, love, love the way they turned out!




Thanks for looking.

MCT Designer Challenge - Colors of Cassandra

Cassandra is hosting the MCT Designer Challenge of colors.  We are to use at least 3 colors of the rainbow, and for a challenge use them all!

There was a resident's birthday where I work and I wanted to make her a little something, after all turning 94 is pretty amazing in my book.  I made the MCT treat slider die and stuffed, and I mean stuffed, a $5 lottery scratch off ticket inside, it fits!!!

Had I thought better about it I would have stamped the inside of the box before I glued it together, but live and learn.  I used a pastel rainbow of colors for the slider part of the box.  Florally paper for the cupcake topper.  I used the treat slider label die for the Happy Birthday, which was from the 3x3 card stamp set.



Tried to get a good pic of the glittery little heart I cut out with the heart dies, but it is so hard to capture the beauty of glitter.


Thanks for looking,

My Creative Time's Tic Tac Toe Designer Challenge

This week for My Creative Time's Designer Challenge DT member, Kim, came up with a fun Tic Tac Toe board to create a project with.  This is the Tic Tac Toe board and I used "Use a Die", "Button" and "Pattern Paper" for my project.
For my project I used MCT Treat Slider Box die, the MCT bunny die from To My Best Peep set, the MCT Stitched Button dies for my button, pattern paper from DCWV Glitter Mat Stack, and We R Memory Keepers twisted string.  
Thanks to videos from MCT DT members I learned how to shorten die cuts to fit my choice of sentiment and I love this die from the treat slider box.  My button is the small flower button from the button dies.  I tried to put the twist string through, but my needles are missing, and my twist came undone, so I just used the green.  I used the pattern paper with little flowers and glitter on it from DCWV.  I tied the whole box shut with the twisted string and tied a bow.  It is such a cute gift for someone special.

Thanks for looking,
Kristi

MCT Designer Challenge-Spring Related and a Die Cut

For MCT's designer's challenge this week we are asked to link up a project that is Spring related and has a die cut on it.  This LO I completed is fun and colorful representing Spring.

I love to color eggs with my kids, but I am also the photographer, heehee.  I used my Gypsy to weld and cut out the letters, which is why I love my Gypsy so much, pray that nothing ever goes wrong with it.


Thanks for looking!

Designer Challenge-keepsake

Over at My Creative Time is a Designer Challenge where to link up your project you need to incorporate a memento or keepsake onto a layout or smashbook page.

My keepsake is a cute little snip of hair tied with a pink gingham ribbon.  My daughter got a hold of her first snippets when I wasn't looking and they are no longer with us, lol, but I had this from her second, much snipped off, haircut.


Not the best pic due to lighting and too lazy to get camera out, so I used my phone.  
Totally behind in scrapping my life, it gets hectic out here, but I miss these days of her being so young!

Thanks for looking.

Congrats Raven

Congrats to my wonderful niece, Raven, for graduating from the University of Findlay!  She has a wonderful journey ahead of her.

Here is the card I made for her, since I missed her grad party due to a faulty brain and calendar! lol


At one time I made several different versions of these grad cards for everyone last year, I also used the owl for Mother's Day cards.
