My Time Made Easy - Shop Around Template and Blog Hop

It's release day at My Time Made Easy!
Today I'm sharing a couple of 3D Shop Around templates that I decorated. I'm not normally a 3D sort of person but Lauren's templates and my Cricut Expression sure do make it easy :)
My houses/shoppes were both resized to 80% using the Sure Cuts A Lot programs so that I could use 8.5 x 11 cardstock.
My first shoppe uses many stamps from Home Improvement, Sign It and Display 1. I've also used some of the cut files which were resized by 80% to fit the stamped images.

The roof pattern is from the Construction Materials - Colour Me Pretty -Square Roof Tiles digi paper. Wait until you see all the fun patterns for your shoppes! Bricks, stone, Spanish tiles, wood planks~! Fun stuff! I printed my pattern on kraft cardstock.

Next up is a cute little house. When I originally started this house I was going for an old school house look. Then it changed to maybe a fire house. Well the final result is what you see....lol Again my house was resized by 80% in my SCAL program before cutting with the Cricut Expression.

A close up shot of the Judikins glaze I added to the windows and also some fun felt grass.

This is my last project that I will be sharing as a My Time Made Easy team member. With my new job, looking for a new house and relocating to a new city sometime in the near future, my stamping time will be very limited. I've enjoyed my time with Lauren and the girls and wish Lauren all the best!!

My Time Made Easy - With A Latte Thanks!

I have many coffee drinking friends and this cup in the On Display 1 and the sentiment from On Display 1 Sentiments is perfect! All of these sets will be available very soon from My Time Made Easy.

I kept this card fairly simple and attempted to use my Janome Sew Mini. One of my first cards with it...lol

I stamped the image on kraft and coloured with copics. A little stitching, ribbon and cutting with the nesties and my card was done!

Stamps: On Display 1, On Display 1 Sentiments; Cardstock: Choc Chip, Kraft, Regal Rose; Inks: Memento Black, Choc Chip; Accessories: Copics, Nesties, Ribbon, Sewing Machine, Dimensionals
I wanted to use the new Sign It stamp set as well and whipped up this fun card using the house image from the set. This is a Set of 30 Images $20 *Also Available in Digital Download.

I stamped the image in Memento Black and added a little bit of colour with Copics. A few layers of cardstock and a little stitching finish off this card!

My Time Made Easy - For Someone Sweet

Welcome back for day two of the My Time Made Easy Sneak Peeks.
Today I'm sharing a couple of things with you. First one being this cool cut file called Homemade Card & Envelope. I resized mine to 80% because I didn't have any 12 x 12 cardstock that I liked...lol That's a GREAT benefit of using a Cricut or any type of personal cutter, you can resize projects to your liking. Bonus! You pull up on the roof to expose the card inside!
My second item I wanted to share are a couple of stamp sets that will be available soon called Shoppe Window and On Display 1.
Shoppe Window: Set of Large 4 Images
On Display 1: Set of 27 images
***both sets will be available as a digital download
I stamped the window image and lighted watercoloured it. The candy lollipops were colored with my SU! markers. I added a bit of stardust stickles to the candy as well.
See that fun pattern paper? It's from the Lollipop Love Collection.

Here is a shot of the inside with the card pulled out.

Stop by Lauren, Stephanie and Silke to see some amazing projects today!

My card started out using some new digi paper that will be released on July 1st along with everything else ;)
This paper is called Lattice Sprinkle. I just ♥ this colour!! It matches Baja Breeze ink from SU! so well :)
The stamp set I am sneakin' today is called Lovely Labels and it co-ordinates with the Labels 1 cut file that will be available soon too. The sentiment comes from an older set called Sensational Sentiments. So many wonderful sayings in this set! I love how the digi paper and Lovely Labels look together.

My Time...

It was so nice to have yesterday off! Although I didn't get as much stamping done as I would have liked, I did manage to get two completed :)
Both cards below use the SCS sketch from Wednesday and the Ways To Use It Challenge of Mixing Patterns. I ♥ mixing patterns!
My first card uses the set All A Flutter Sentiments from My Time Made Easy. Last week before leaving for Calgary my package from Lauren arrived and boy did she spoil me rotten!!! Wait until you see the upcoming release! I'm so excited to be joining in this month! Stay tuned....next week ;)
Ok back to my card! I used some pretty American Crafts designer paper and a Martha butterfly punch to finish it off.

My second card uses an Inkadinkado stamp set called Birthday Cupcakes. I stopped in to a local scrapbooking store called Scrap-a-Lot and picked up some of the fun AC Dear Lizzy embellishments. I don't know why I didn't pick them up when I got the paper a couple of weeks ago. I don't often use these sort of embellishments but they are FUN!

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope to have some energy after working today to stamp this evening :)
Have a WONDERFUL Friday!
