Trick or Treat!

 Hello everybody, welcome back to Crafty Time 4U! Today I am sharing with you some milk carton treats, using Lawn Fawn products. As Halloween approaches, we have to start working on our gifts and treats we will have for the kids, teachers or coworkers. So here is an quick an easy idea that I wanted to share with you. Let me show you and I will tell you a little bit more about it.

I die cut the"Milk carton Lawncuts" using patterned paper from the "Let's polka in the dark collection." I also die cut some grass with the "grassy border" die  out of some green card stock, and  some clouds borders out of black card stock, using the "stitched puffy clouds border dies." 

DSC_7989 MpopI used the smallest one of the "Stitched circle tags" to stamp the sentiment or message "trick or treat" from the "critters in costume" stamp set, and I heat embossed it. I punched two small holes on the flaps on the milk carton and attache the circle tag using baker's twine.

DSC_7995I stamp, colored, and die cut  the critters and accessories from the "party animal" and "holiday party animal" and adhered to the assembled milk cartons, using foam adhesive 

I hope you enjoyed this project and that you'll give it a try. I promise you, they are very easy to put together, very quick project on which kids can help too, by coloring the images, that would make it much more fun!
Have a great rest of the week!

Wishing You a Harvest of Blessings!


Hello everybody, welcome back to Crafty Time 4U! It's beginning to feel like fall, are the leaves changing over where you live? Is the air getting crispier? Apple trees are loaded over here, and I started to note a yellowish tint on all the trees, so yes it's coming! I love fall but it doesn't last very long up here! It's just the prelude to winter and that's a bad part I guess, but still excited! 
Today I am sharing with you a fall card, using the new "Harvest Mouse" stamp and Dienamics by My Favorite Things
I will be entering this card to the My Favorite Things "Card Design Superstar" Contest, please wish me luck! 
Let me show you the card that I made, and I will tell you a little bit more about it.

I made a watercolor wash for the background, using Real"Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers" I used the 070 Orange, 041 light green, and the 044 deep green.

I die cut the coordinated shapes and then stamped them using "Memento Tuxedo Black Ink" then I colored all the images using Copic Markers. (list of colors below)

I used the banner from the "Dienamics Blueprints 20", and the front panel is from the "Dienamics Blueprints 24" I stamped the sentiments using "Versamark Ink" heat embossed using white embossing powder. i adhered all the elements to card base using foam adhesive.

Hello everybody, welcome back to Crafty Time 4U,  yay it's Friday! I hope you had a great week.
Today I'm sharing with you some inspiration for the current Lawnscaping Challenge No. 113 sponsored by Ellen Hutson. One lucky winner will get a $25 gift certificate to the Ellen Hutson store. 
This time the challenge is about using texture, any kind, texture paste, texture papers, sand, cotton, or any material you can think of. If you haven't enter the challenge yet you can enter by clicking here.
Let me show you the card I created and I will tell you a little more about it.


I used the bear from the "critters in costume" stamp set by Lawn Fawn, I stamped, colored with Copic Markers, and die cut all the elements.

I created a water colored background with the Zig real brush markers, then I lay a honey cone stencil, and applied a thin layer of Ranger clear texture paste. I adhered all the elements to the water colored, textured piece, using foam adhesive, and finished it with some candy enamel dots.
