Group Day

Today is group day for My Time Made Easy! Be sure to check the other team members blogs. The links are in my side bar. Today I get to show off this cute house card. This card was made using the Homemade Card and Envelope © cut file. It goes together super fast and makes a cute card to decorate to your hearts desire. I thought it would be a fun way to welcome someone to the neighborhood. The inside part was decorated but left blank so you could write a note to your new neighbor. Add a basket of cookies or other goodies and you are good to go.

My Time Made Easy ~ Tuckered Out

I was inspired by the new release items that Lauren created this month to make a set for my granddaughter. She is still a bit young but I am prepared when she is ready for it. It won't be long as they grow so fast. She loves purple, so when I saw this purple and green designer paper in my stash, I knew it would be perfect. :)

Tuckered Out is such a fun template! It is a tiny little box. It is just 2" x 2 1/2 x 2 3/4". You can change the template in your SCAL software and make it bigger though if it fits your needs better. I love this. It would be perfect for some candy or even a beautiful piece of jewelry. The possiblities are endless. Lost my Tooth stamp set was created for making things all about the tooth fairy. Isn't it just sweet? I now have the perfect set for those projects. :) I have two posts today so make sure to scroll down for the second one.

My Time Made Easy ~ Game On

I had to make this girly! Ha, girls like video games too. ;) This was super simple to make thanks to the Game On cut file designed by Lauren. I cut the designer paper twice using my cricut. The second one (for the inside), I found worked best if I put the paper on the mat with the backside of the paper up. It fit together better when putting it together. The little girl that loves her games would love getting a sparkly card like this.

Be sure to check out the other teams cards too! They have some fantastic talent and their ideas rock! The links are in my side bar so be sure to go check them all out. Have a great Sunday!

Witches Brew

I am so excited to finally get to show you this project. The stamp I am introducing today is Amy's Halloween Six; Hero, Dragon, Witch, Pumpkin, Princess (apple), and Kitty. I chose to play with the witch. I saw this cute little witch and immediately thought of Amy's teapot (My Time Made Easy) as a witches brew. I love the way this turned out and it was so fun to make. Wouldn't it be fun to put your favorite hot chocolate mix or spiced cider mix in this to give to your favorite little trick or treater? Make sure to head on over to the All That Scraps blog for a chance to win Amy's new stamps. You also will have the treat of seeing what some of the other girls did with them.

Wednesday Challenge ~ Monochrome

Today at the All That Scraps Challenge Blog I issued a challenge to make a monochrome project. I used my warm grays with my copics and used River Rock Cardstock. I love the feel of this card. It is so soft. I couldn't resist using my new favorite crinkled ribbon to finish it off. I made the ribbon roses to add the finishing touch as well as my bow easy bow. I hope you will hop on over and see what the other girls created and play along with us! I want to also send a shout out to my friend and fellow DT member from My Time Made Easy, Katie Cotton! She had some amazing tutorial video of this techniqe. I asked if I could use it and she even did another sample for me using a C.C. Designs stamp! What a girl! Thank you Katie! More samples of Katie's work here <------

The Flapper revisited

Today is the final day of our peeks. I hope you have enjoyed them. This is a fall flapper that I created. I am all about fall. We haven't really had any summer yet though. I can get ready though right? I love fall colors and this one was so much fun for me to create.

The Flapper

Here is my take on the new My Time Made Easy The Flapper Pretty Packaging Template. This template is perfect for gorgeous packaging of a gazillion gifts. It is big enough to put a candle in or even fill with chocolate. What more could you ask for to make a fabulous thank you gift for that someone special. Make sure to head on over to Pam's blog to see what she did with this fabulous template. All of this month's new release items are available now at My Time Made Easy!
