My Creative Time Design Team Call

I think by now most of you have heard that Emma from My Creative Time has openings for her first official design team.  I really appreciate Emma and her blog because all of her great video tutorials on the gypsy helped me tremendously when I first got mine.  I would sit watching her tutorials with my gypsy and follow along learning all the tricks to master that girl, so thanks Emma for taking the time to make those great videos!!  Emma also has a great line of stamps and dies too and because of her I now own Peachy Keen stamp sets. 
The card I made is one I designed to give to my youngest daughter's soccer coaches.  Tomorrow is our last game and we are our last playoff!!  So far we are undefeated in their league:-)  We have the best coaches and they invest so much into our girls.  We chipped in and ordered them a T-shirt with a picture of the team on front.  I offered to make the cards. 



I used an svg file for the card front and the soccer ball.  The grass is from Plantin Schoolbook.  As you can tell from the bottom picture, this is a tent style A2 sized card.
***If you haven't visited Emma's blog lately I encourage you to take a peek at all the talented bloggers who are joining me in pursuing a spot on Emma's design team.  There is SO much talent and I am grateful for my fellow bloggers who share their talents freely and consistently inspire me to grow in my own creativity!!  Good luck to all of you!!***
Thanks for stopping by today and have a great rest of your weekend!!

Halloween Gift Bag

I just got the Mini Monsters cartridge a little over a week ago.  It was on clearance for such a great deal and I had been wanting it for a long time:-)

The bag itself is made from Plantin Schoolbook.   The tag is from Sweet Treats and the witch's hat is from Mini Monsters. 

I used my Bic Mark Its too color my bling to match my project (see closeup)  I also used stickles on my lavendar brad to coordinate with the stickles on the hat.

I am entering this project in My Craft Spot's Monday Challenge #28:  "Too Cute to Spook".
