MCT Tutorial Thursday :)



Hello! It's Tutorial Thursday at MyCreativeTime, so today I have a little tutorial for you. I have used the Gobble Gobble set to make this card. I started by cutting a piece of watercolor paper with the Stitched Rectangular Frames And More dies. Here are photos of the process...


You can click the photo to enlarge to better see the steps. This is super easy, and makes a really pretty background using the little leaves in the Gobble Gobble set. Start by stamping them with distress ink, and then wet the with a wet brush or a water brush. Then smoosh the ink pads on a clear block and add water to flick splatters. You end up with a super fun background. :)  I stamped the greeting from the Gobble Gobble set onto a banner from the Sentiment Label Dies. After the distress ink has dried, stamp some leaves in black to tie in with the black greeting. To finish, I added a few sequins.

NEW Peachy Keen Stamps Release


Hello! It's time for a NEW PeachyKeenStamps release! Get ready for CUTENESS! This adorable bat is from the NEW Halloween Digi set. If your purchase the Digi set, you get the SVG's for FREE! The adorable face is from the NEW Pumpkin Face Assortment. These faces are so cute, I basically can't even. ;) The greeting is from the Halloween Digi set as well. I colored the bat and the background with my Copic markers. I added texture to the background with a paper towel and Copic blender solution. And here's another version of this card...


I used the same stuff for this card with the exception of the background. I used a Clouds Stencil from Want2Scrap. I used wilted violet distress ink and an ink blending tool. I used the wilted violet distress markers to also outline through the stencil. I spritzed on water for a splotchy look. 


For this card I used the adorable pumpkins from the Halloween Digi set and the Pumpkin Face Assortment. SOOOOO CUTE! :) The greeting is also in the Halloween Digi set. 

Pop over to PeachyKeenStamps and get your SHOP on! :) OH...there is 15cent shipping!!! What?!

Holy Guacamole!


Hiya! Sharing a card made for a custom order. I used my Cricut Explore to make this super fun 40th birthday card. I love how the hole in the avocado peeks to the inside. The avocado is from a Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons svg set. 


That face is the cutest, and it's from the Beginner Happy Family Emoji Face Assortment set by PeachyKeenStamps. I used my Copics to get a blend on the 4 to match the hat. 


I used the Claire's ABC's set by Lawn Fawn for the greeting. 

I hope you're having a great week.
