MCT ~ April Release Sneak Peek Day 1


Good morning! Welcome to Day #1 of the April My Creative Time Release! Lets just say Emma has done an AMAZING job again with this release! I know we all can't wait to share this release with you all! I promise to keep my posts super short this week ~ I wouldn't want you to miss not one thing!
Today Emma and the design team will be showcasing the sets You're My Hero and the Bunch of Stitched Stars. I just adore these sets and the best part is they work PERFECTLY together! I love the size of the sentiments from the You're My Hero stamp set. This set can be for encouragement,masculine, children, friends ~ I mean the list goes on! I can see them being used for layouts as well!
I decided to make a tag like star for my son, who starts PSSA testing today. These knew sets couldn't have come at a more perfect time! I wanted to make him something special just to let him know how proud I am of him. Since our home town teams are black and yellow , though some say gold, I thought these would be fun color combination.  My big yellow star was created with washi tape and so were my little stars too, just by using the scrap piece. I used the  4x4 Journal Die + More to create those adorable little stars.

Materials Used:
Paper ~ PTI
Ribbon ~ PTI
Ink ~ VersaFine, VersaMark
MME washi tape
embossing powder
 twine
***Sneak Peek giveaway!***

We will be giving away the sets we are showcasing each day to ONE lucky winner! For example, the set we are showcasing on Wednesday, Emma will announce the winner of that on Thursday & the sets we are showcasing on Thursday, Emma will announce that winner on Friday in her video!
