Halloween ~ MCT 94th Edition Release, Sale & Blog Hop

Hello, it's Gaylynn here.  The My Creative Time 94th Edition release, sale and blog hop has begun.
You may have arrived from Emily's blog.

Sentiment:  Happy Halloween!

This is a second way that I am using the skull treat box die.  During the sneak peek days, I showed these dies being used as a treat box.  This time, I decided to use the skull section, along with the background layer, to make a gift tag.  I just trimmed away the side tabs.  These are great to tie onto treats, bags, card accents or even used as a wine tag.

Here is a look at the skull treat box die which I am using pieces of in today's project.  I also use parts of the other items releasing.

Little boos treat bag gift tags for Halloween.

Today, I am sharing a fun way to dress up treats for Halloween.  I made a quick and easy set of assorted treat bag tags.

To begin, I stamped some of the icons onto a sheet of cardstock with Copic friendly ink.  Then, I lightly added touches of Copic makers to the stamping.  Two sizes of circle punches were used to cut out the icons and the frame layer.  With a little twine and a treat bag, the assembling was complete.

I made a quick video tutorial showing the process for this project.

Fright Night ~ Day 4 MCT 94th Edition Sneak Peeks

Hello, it's Gaylynn.  Here is Day 4 of sneak peeks with the My Creative Time 94th Edition release.

Sentiment:  Happy fright night.

Oh, what fun it is to create this Halloween favor box.  This is nearly all die-cuts except for the fun coordinating sentiment stamp.  I used assorted solid cardstock and extra tacky double-sided tape to assemble.  This is approximately 3" x 3" and will hold wrapped treats or small gifts.  I want to make these for our trick-or-treaters.

Night time sky background holiday watercolor card.

For Watercolor Wednesday, I made a night time sky background holiday card scene.  For this process, I used watercolor powders with stamping.

Sentiment:  Holy night.

To begin, I created the watercolor background panel using Brusho watercolor powders.  My goal was to obtain a nighttime sky background using dark watercolor shades.  Then, I added stamping with heat embossing over the dried watercolor panel.  To finish, I added a stamped sentiment and adhesive pearls.
The process is messy, so use caution to protect the work area from color stains and follow the precautions for the color powders.  

The full article and tutorial are up on the Unity blog.

I also made a quick video tutorial showing the process for this project.

Spooky Tree ~ Day 3 MCT 94th Edition Sneak Peeks

Hello, it's Gaylynn.  Here is Day 3 of sneak peeks with the My Creative Time 94th Edition release.

Sentiment:  October 31

Here is a fun layered tag with Halloween themed die-cuts and embossed stamping.  I used black cardstock in the background and then added white dye ink swooshes.  It turned out looking somewhat dark gray and navy blue.  That was a nice surprise.  I distressed the tree and added a moon to the background with patterned paper.  With a little twine, it is ready to be added to a gift, treat bag, party favor or even used as a wine tag.

Boo! ~ Day 1 MCT 94th Edition Sneak Peeks

Hello, it's Gaylynn.  Here is a sneak peek of the My Creative Time 94th Edition release.

Sentiment:  Incredi-boo.. That's You!

This was super fun to make.  This stamp and die set comes with several sentiments and Halloween dies.  I chose to use the ghosts and bat for this card.  I also used patterned paper and an edge die-cut.  This took about ten minutes to make.  Super quick and easy.
