SVG Attic Design Team Project Day

Happy Wednesday!

Today is my day to design a project for SVG Attic. I thought it would be fun to use the Fun Favors set and create a favor box, full of M&M's, for fall. 

I used the milk carton svg, again from the  Fun Favors set, and replaced the circle window with one of the pumpkins from the Pumpkin Patch file.  

The crow, leaves, and swirls were also cut from the Pumpkin Patch file. I used a clear transparency for the window of the box. You can buy individual sheets at Kinko's, Staples, or Office Depot in their copy centers. 

The twine is from The Twinery and the tag was made with Supplies from My Creative Time. I used the Scallop and Stitched Circle die's and the All Around Halloween stamp set.

Stats:

Favor box: 10 1/2" wide (keep proportions on)

Crow: 1 1/2" high (keep proportions on)

Leaf #1: 3/4" high (keep proportions on)

Leaf #2: 1/2" high (keep proportions on)

Swirls: 1 1/4" high (keep proportions on)

I also need to announce the winner for the My Creative Time new release blog hop, last weekend. 

The winner is...

Sarah B!

I made this Birthday favor box. 


It was made with the Halloween Favors svg file that I purchased from My Grafico.com. I changed the deign of the box, to get the look I wanted.

The test tubes were purchased from here.  Regular size M&M's fit in the tubes, but I liked the look of the little M&M's.

The twine from Twisted Sugar Twine, matches the Quick Quote's paper perfectly!

 (Thanks Raven!)

My Creative Time's September Stamp Release - Sneak Peaks Day 4!

Happy Thursday!

 

Today is the fourth day of sneak peaks for the up coming September release for My Creative Time! 

Today's peak was made with the new set called "Build a Banner Kit."

This banner kit is so versatile and who doesn't love banners?

The papers are from Papertrey Ink, K and Company, and Core'dinations. 

To create the banner I used the polka dot stamp, that comes with the banner kit, and stamped it randomly, in green ink, on white paper. Then I used one of the flag dies and cut out three flags. I also used the small circle die, that comes with the kit, and cut three circles out of green pattern paper. I then used the alphabet stamps from the Any Day Crossword & Bingo set and stamped "Boo".  I used some twine from Trendy Twine to string it across the top of the card.

Are you singing that "One eyed, purple people eater" song in your head yet? :)
The little monster is a graphic that I bought from Sugar Hill Co., converted into a cuttable file in Make-the-Cut, and then cut her out. I just lub her!



I know by now you know the drill, but here is is again, just in case!

My Creative Time's Septmeber Stamp Release - Sneak Peaks Day 3!

Happy Wednesday!

 

Today is the third day of sneak peaks for the up coming September release for My Creative Time! 

Today's peak was made with the new set called "Whimsical Calendar & the XL Label die."

I made a small album for my bestie's dad. In the last year in a half, he has been blessed with 4 great-granddaughters. I thought it would be fun to create a mini album that he could take around with him to show his "girl's" off. Plus it also acts as a reminder of their birth dates.

The calendar stamp and the XL label die, made this project really fast and easy to make.

The papers are from Papertrey Ink, & Bazzil and the twine is from The Twinery. The baby on the cover, of the album, is from the Lettering Delights set called Peek-a-boo. The baby's face is from Peachy Keen Stamps, PK-650 Just Baby Faces Assortment.

Here is a quick sneak of a "surprise" that Emma has up her sleeve!

My Creative Time's Septmeber Stamp Release - Sneak Peaks Day 2!

Happy Tuesday!

Today is day two of the My Creative Time's sneak peaks!

Today's project was made with the new stamp set called, Any Day Crossword & Bingo.

I made this card with the "fun" bingo stamp, the "leaf" stamp, and the letter stamps from this set. We call this the "fun" bingo stamp b/c Emma incorporated all of our birthday's and some other very important #'s in her life, on the piece! I love that it has such meaning to it! The best part is that the center square and the top has been left empty, so that you can stamp anything in it you want.  It enables you to tailor it to whatever you need it for. The set also includes the letter stamps and a bunch of holiday stamps as well.

The papers are from Papertrey Ink and DCWV. The Twine is from Trendy Twine.

I think this is my favorite set from this release!

Happy Monday!

 

It's that time again! This week is going to be full of sneak peaks from the up coming September release for My Creative Time!

Today's peak was made with the new set called "Game Night."

 I created a fun tag to put on a card game!

The heart and spade stamps are both from the new stamp set, as well as the "Let's Play" sentiment.

The card people are from Treasure Box Design's Wonderland Collection. Their faces are from Peachy Keen Stamps, PK-640 Princess Face Assortment and PK-642 Boy Mates Assortment. The twine is from The Twinery. I created the tag in Make-the-Cut and used my Silhouette to cut everything out.
