MCT ~ Inspire Me Wednesday

Good morning! Today is Inspire Me Wednesday over at My Creative Time with Emma and the design team!
My inspiration for my card today is all of you who have made cards using a die for the background. I have no specific person or card because many of you have created this type of card. Since I have admired this idea. So I pulled out my Hello Die and die cut the "thanks" and adhered them to my background. I have to say I LOVE the white on white look more and more! My sentiment is from Happy Thoughts and the banner is from Ribbon End Banners. I love the little doily which is from Bunch of Stitched Doily Dies, the are a fun little accent to any card!  Of course I had to use the MORE Stitched Rectangular Dies.
Materials Used:
Paper ~ PTI and Doodlebug

MCT ~ Made In Minutes

Good Morning, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
Today is Made In Minutes over at My Creative Time with Emma and the design team. This is when we share a card or project that can be made in minutes.
I have to confess here, I have a HUGE bin and binder filled with scraps. At one point I tried putting them in a binder but then that was filled so I started tossing them in a bin. Insert sigh here...
Anyway I seem to die cut a lot of different dies in different papers, so when I say this card literally took minutes it truly did! Only problem is, I have to search through my paper packs to see where the paper came from! Ugh
So as I was searching thru all my scraps I came upon this felt bunny, from the To My Best Peep, and the grass , which is from the Stitched Grass Die. So I thought with Easter coming up I would make a quick little Easter card. My sentiment and the embossed eggs are from Ears To You
Materials Used:
To My Best Peep
Paper ~ PTI and EP
Ink ~ VersaFine and VersaMark
Felt ~ PTI
hemp
pom pom from J's
Signo Pen
Button ~ Doodlebug

MCT ~ Thoughtful Thursday

Good morning! It's Thoughtful Thursday over at My Creative Team with Emma and the design team!
I wanted to share with you all a simple card using some of the products from the last release! I love the size of the stamps from Fun Notes, so I heat embossed my sentiment on a white piece of card stock then used the More Stitched Edges Dies for an edge. I die cut the Ribbon Edge Banners out in various pattern papers, added some twine and a button. Super simple and fast to create!
Materials Used:
Paper ~ PTI and MME
Ink ~ PTI, Versa Mark and Versa Fine
Button ~ PTI
twine

MCT 53rd Edition Sneak Peek Day #4

Today is the final day of the My Creative Time 53rd Edition Sneak Peeks with Emma and the design team. Today we are featuring the new set, Fun Notes. Oh my can I just say how I adore this font and the size of the stamps. Best part is they come with coordinating dies too! What I love about this set is you can quickly create a card, PL or scrapbook page with this set in minutes.
Keeping with trying my resolution this year of clean and simple cards, I thought this one was perfect to share with you all. I simply stamped my sentiment and used foam to give it dimension. Die cut out only 2 of the banners from the new set, Ribbon End Banners, added a button with some hemp and called it a day!  Easy right?
