MCT 1st Christmas in July Release!

 If you had 1/2 as much fun as me - you had a great week.

Today, it's all about you and you getting the chance to place your order for these wonderful products.  I know I told you yesterday I have my 2022 cards done, but I couldn't resist making two more with our fun items from this release.  I used a card sketch that I love because this one features a large block of my patterned paper and I just love this paper pad.

Of course I had to use the tag die and the tag sheet from the paper pad for my focal point on this card.  By adding the sentiment that I cut out with the coordinating die, my card is ready to go.  I loved it so much, I made two!

When I look at these cards I just want to smile!  Who wouldn't love getting these during the holidays??

Head over to https://neatnook.blogspot.com/.../gingerbread-my-creative... for more creative fun in our blog hop!

Thank you for a great week.  I always appreciate your comments.  Make sure you follow my blog so you know when I post something new!

Christmas in July with My Creative Time Day 4 Sneaky Peeks!

 This week has flown by!  I guess it's because we are having so much fun!

Emma always makes the BEST dies for us to use when we need to make a statement.  Our new Pretty Oval Layer and Scallop Oval Dies are just that - they make a statement.

The delicate scallop placed behind the oval layer makes it just pop off the paper.

Here we have our sweet Ginger person again and looks how he/she jumps off the card!

Once again I chose to stamp that adorable sentiment in RED and use the die cut - PERFECTION!

WELL -  tomorrow is the big day!

Remember if you are one of the first 25 shoppers you will win the 6x6 paper pad FREE!

This collection will give you a jump start on your winter projects and you can be done ahead of time.

I must confess - all of my Christmas cards are made and ready to be addressed and sent.

Each year, I try and have all my cards done by the end of February.  By then I'm tired of the mess and ready to move on to spring projects.  When fall comes around and there's a chill in the air, I can take out my holiday cards and begin addressing and writing in them.  I don't feel rushed - I just have a relaxed approach to the season.  I can use my time to make other last minute holiday projects like gift tags, Gift card holders, place cards etc.  Love it!

MCT - Christmas in July Sneaky Peek - Day 3!

 Today is such a special day because Emma has designed a new line of her famous bows.

This time we have a Ginger Bow all decked out and perfect for adding to all your holiday projects.

I used the Fun Size Bow on the Pillow Pocket Die.  This time I used twine to close the lid and placed the silver mat on top of the twine.  This is an excellent package for a bracelet or other small gift of jewelry!  Make a few and have on hand for when you need them.

Being that I love this Bow Set so well, I also had to use the Medium die to make this 4 Inch card.

I made a 4 inch circle die  card set and created this adorable round card with the Medium Bow as the focal point on the front.  I added another sentiment strip and die and placed it on a red scrap of paper and fussy cut around so it would stand out more.

I also added another scalloped layer on the front using the Circle Card Add on set.

Such an easy card!

Day 2 - Christmas in July with MCT!

 This is such a fun release but truthfully you haven't seen anything yet!

Today we feature a new Sweet Holiday Wishes set (with matching dies!!!! DROOL) and the larger size of our Ginger person!  This is the perfect size to add to cards and tags.  The image is just shy of 3 inches which is what I always cut when I want an image from my Cricut

I chose to make a Slimline Card with the Tall Frame Die Layers.

I used the Tall Floating Edge Dies which can also be used for an A2 size card.

Look at that sweet sentiment stamped in RED!  Isn't it to die for???

I used a small punch from my stash for the tiny bow, chunky glitter on the "snow" hills, and sequins from my stash.  Love her with her peppermint pinwheel!

I couldn't just stop at a card - I had to make more tags showing you how the sentiments can be the focal point on your tags!  Aren't these lovely????

Are you having fun yet?????

Let me know in the comments below so I know if you like our projects.

My Creative Time - our first CHRISTMAS IN JULY Release week!

 Okay, normally I am on a HIGH when I'm creating with My Creative Time products, but this week has been extra special.  We are featuring Emma's FIRST Christmas in July and I hope you have your hot cocoa ready, because you are going to go nuts!!!!

Today we are featuring our new 6x6 Christmas pad called Fun Christmas.

I hope you are loving these new papers as much as I do!  The quality is excellent and if you are creating 3D or cards, the extra "weight" of the paper gives you a more substantial project.  In addition to the paper pad, the new dies are Scallop Tag Dies, Wavy Tag Dies & Regular Tag Dies.

The way Emma designed the dies to function with the paper pad is nothing short of brilliant.

As you can see, I couldn't stop making these tags!  So easy with these supplies.

As you can see I used the new Fun Christmas paper pad but I also pulled out some of my Christmas paper and embellishments left over from last year and used to decorate - I almost couldn't stop - it was just too fun!  I love that Emma thought about what happens when we want a tag from our own stash and provided a way to cut them as well.  Christmas tags this year will be the fastest ever!!!

***FREEBIE***

Our New "FUN CHRISTMAS 6X6 PAPER PAD" will be given to the first "25" shoppers for FREE starting this Friday, 7/22/2022 @8am PST! Once the 25th shopper comes through, this paper pad will be available for purchase! When you see this stencil in the new release category, that means that you missed the window! This paper pad will NOT be included in the bundle, it will be sold separately!
