MyCreativeTime Blog Hop

Hello! You should have arrived from Nancy's Blog, if not, head HERE to start at the beginning. For my card today I used the fabulous new Build A Chevy Background set to create my ombre background. I used Pale Tomato, Fresh Peach, and Soft Cantaloupe Hero Arts Shadow Inks. I used the awesome Vintage Stitched Label die to create my window. 

I white heat embossed the greeting from the Girls Night Out set on vellum. I stamped the stars from the Spooky Starry Night set with soft cantaloupe ink on some cardstock and slipped it behind the vellum window. I added some Crystal Clear sequins and called it finished. :)

Your next stop on the hop is ROSY

Thanks A Melon!

Greetings, Peachy Pals! Nikki here with a card on this fine Friday. :) I used the super duper fabulous Faceless Fruit set to stamp and paper piece these cute watermelons. Their adorable faces are from the July 2013 set. 

To finish off this card, I white embossed the greeting from the Fruit Sentiments Two set. 

I hope you have a PEACH-TASTIC weekend!

MCT Sneaks Day 3

Hello! It's day 3 of sneak peeks for MyCreativeTime! For my card today I've used the beyond fabulous new Build A Chevy Background and new Let's Celebrate set. I started by stamping my ombre chevron background with Pale Tomato, Fresh Peach, and Soft Cantaloupe Hero Arts Shadow Inks. I ♥ these colors together! I used the Vintage Label Die to create my window. 

I stamped the word "party" from the new Let's Celebrate set a bunch of times and put it behind the window I made. Those banners??? Cute, eh?! They're also from the new Let's Celebrate set. I stamped em twice with pale tomato ink, and then paper pieced with the other two ink colors. :)

Be sure to pop over to MyCreativeTime to see more sneaks!

Inspire Me Tuesday

Hello! It's Inspire Me Tuesday at MyCreativeTime. I was inspired by the above banner for the new Pearl Jam album {I see this artwork every day on the Pearl Jam site...I'm an addict} :) Here is my card...

 I cut out the lightning bolt with my cricut and the Pooh And Friends cartridge. Yep, the Pooh cartridge! LOL! Lots of hidden gems on that one. I stamped the Cartoon Cloud background with Hero Arts Charcoal shadow ink. I traced the lightning bolt and glued my sequins. :) 

I stamped the greeting from the Treasured Moments set from MyCreativeTime. Added a few more sequins and called it done. :)

Pop over to MyCreativeTime to see more "inspired" projects.

And I leave you with one of my favorite Pearl Jam songs...

93 days until I see Pearl Jam LIVE. :)

Eat Cake

Hello! I made this to play along in the Little Tangles Challenge. The theme is cake to celebrate Neat And Tangled's first birthday. Yay! Sooooo in love with their sequins! The greeting is a free digi on their challenge blog. I sized it and printed it out. Then I wanted to make a sequin cake to go with the greeting. I was going to use my cricut or silhouette, but decided it would be hard to perfectly line up the already printed greeting so.......... I just eyeballed it and cut out some "cake" rectangles with my trimmer and exacto knife. Super easy. And then the fun/relaxing part for me, gluing the sequins. I use glossy accents to glue them down. A little dab and a sequin...repeat. :)

P.S. Sorry for the awful photo. It's storming like crazy here. Anyone have a spare ark? ;)

Thoughtful Thursday

Hello! It's Thoughtful Thursday at MyCreativeTime. I made this card for Veronica {my MCT DT sister} She's going to be running a marathon soon. EEK! ;) Anyhoo... I used the Cricut Craft Room and the Sports Mania cricut cartridge to make the panel for my sequin creation. :)

 The greeting is from the Life Is Good set from MyCreativeTime. I used Ocean Breeze and Summer Sky sequins from Neat And Tangled. 

Pop over to MyCreativeTime to see more creations. :)
