Can you believe we are previewing the June release of My Time Made Easy?  So happy June is on its way because that means SUMMER!  This month we only have one template (keeping it simple for the summer!) and it's called Tapered Off.  It's quite large and very easy to pull together.  I decorated it with a new digital paper pack called Tiny Town.

Here's a top view so you can see my pretty bow!  The tag was made using the BFF Valentine Tags cut file and I added this adorable door and sentiment from the new There's No Place Like Home digital stamp set.  This is a very cool set.  It comes with five different wreaths to add to the door for various holidays, several sentiments, and a window with several different accents for it, as well as other items for a home.  Very versatile!

There is a topper to the template that comes off.  Sort of like the roof.  This is what it looks like with the top off.

And this is what the template looks like open.  I always forget to take pictures of the templates open, so today I remembered!  
 
Like I said before, this template is roomy.  I had a jar candle on hand to show the size better.  It fit in there with lots of room for other things you might give as a house warming gift.
 
So what might you put in this template?

The whole team is posting today.  Stop by their blogs and see what they've created.
 

 
The MTME June release will be on Saturday, June 1.  All items are digital, so they will be ready to purchase, download, and use that day!  No waiting!
 
Thanks for stopping by!

Fusion Card Challenge #8

Hi everyone!  I hope my US friends enjoyed a long Memorial Day weekend.  I was at my cabin and spent the weekend with some great friends and family!
 
The card I'm sharing today I colored on Saturday before I left, but didn't have time to finish it.  I wanted to enter the Papertrey Ink blog hop, but didn't get it done in time.  But I could still enter it in the Fusion Card Challenge!  I loved the photo this week.  It gave me a chance to use a couple of PTI stamp sets I have never used.
 
I just love these tulips!  I colored them with various RV, YR, BG, and YG copics.  This is a very large stamp and I hade to make the card 4.25 x 6.  It didn't leave much room for embellishments.  As it is, I used Sweet Threads dp from Basic Grey which is hard to see.  I managed to add a bow and some pearls in the corner.  I also added some sparkle with a sakura glitter pen.  Hard to see in the picture.
 
That's it for me!  Thanks for stopping by and see you soon!

Just Us Girls #190 - Photo Inspiration Challenge and a Happy Birthday!

Hi everyone!  The Just Us Girls challenge this week is a photo inspiration challenge.  Marisa chose this fabulous picture of a cake.  Great colors, polka dots, chevrons, and a cool flower.

 Here's a close-up of the photo so you can see the details better.
I loved the yellow, white, and gray color combo and the polka dots, so I started with that.  The gray dp is from an old SU paper pack, and the yellow is from Authentique's Blissful paper pack.  I used SU's basic gray paper and the yellow dp to make the flower using Papertrey Ink's Beautiful Blooms II #1 die.  I added a yellow glitter dot in the center and two off to the side.  The sentiment is from PTI's Birthday Style stamp set stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink.  This is all mounted on a Daffodil Delight card base.

Our design team member Vicki had a birthday this week, so we thought we'd make birthday cards for her.  Happy Birthday Vicki!  I stamped the inside of the card with PTI's new Ruby Rose stamp set.  Love that stamp!  I also used my new We Are Memories Keepers Envelope Punch Board (an envelope maker) to make an envelope out of the gray dp.  So cool!  (No picture of that...sorry!)

I used the Deconstructed Sketch for my layout, and pretty much CASED Jen's card.  Loved it!

Stop by these blogs for more inspiration and to see Vicki's birthday cards.


Thanks for stopping by!
