Birthday Things to Do - My Creative Time

I made this birthday card for my brother-in-law.  I saw there was a "linky" party over on the My Creative Time's blog.  You need to use a stamp from one of Emma's 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Edition sets.  You can check out all the details HERE.  I was blessed to win 10 of her stamp sets through the Everyday Cricut blog and I'm just loving all the great sentiments.  Thankfully one of the sets was from her 2nd Edition.  That would be the "Turn that Frown Upside Down" set.

The sentiments "Don't worry by happy" & "smile..." are from the 2nd Edition set. 

I actually used 5 My Creative Time stamp sets in all:

Turn that Frown Upside Down

Many Greetings

My Favorite Sayings

Camera Shy

Honey Do List

It's hard to tell from the picture but on the clip board, I stamped the clip part a second time and cut it out and popped it up with foam dots. 

The paper is DCWV Tattered Time.

The "gear" circles are cut from Cricut's Elegant Edges Cartridge.

The ribbon is from my stash.

I put a little "star" gem on the flash of the camera. 

Thanks for taking the time to check out my card. I hope you'll take a moment to leave a comment.

DCWV February's Stack-a-holic Template Challenge

So HERE'S the challenge for February from DCWV.  Make a layout using DCWV papers using this sketch from Sketch Savvy.




And here's my version of the sketch.

The majority of layout is using the Tattered Time Stack (which I won --- Thank you Erin!)

The gears are from one of the papers from the Tattered Time Stack. - I just cut them out and used them for my circles.  I added some colored pearls to the centers to brighten them up a bit. 

The "May 1962" letters are also one of the papers from Tattered Time which I cut out and used as my banners. 

The light aqua paper is from the Textured Cardstock Stack-Brights. 

The brown shimmer paper is from the Holiday Shimmer stack. 

The Flowers are from The Craft's Meow grab box I recently bought. 

The "Jim & Andrea" were cut out using my Nifty Fifties Cricut cartridge. 

My parents will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary this May. That's a whole lot of love!  I'm making them a scrapbook in celebration of this awesome event!

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you'll take some time to leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
