Happy Friday!!

Welcome to my new blog!  After a LOT of frustration and work, it’s finally back together and I can start crafting again!  I am so excited to show you my projects for My Time Made Easy’s June release!  Fun, fun, fun!

This project features our NEW template, Tapered Off.  When I think Summer, I think watermelon!  Here it is…

Tapered Watermelon 1 (Large)

This template comes together so easily.  It was so much fun to use!

Tapered Watermelon 2 (Large)

The “seeds” paper is Darling Dots printed on Cherry Cobbler cardstock.

Tapered Watermelon 3 (Large)

Notice the patterned print on top of my box.  I used the Zebra print in Purse Patterns.  I changed the black stripes to green and printed on green cardstock to look like the outside of a watermelon.

Tapered Watermelon 4 (Large)

I used Nestabilities to make the watermelon slice with a bite taken out for the top.  😀

Tapered Watermelon 5 (Large)

The sentiment “Happy Summer!” is in our Tooty Fruity stamp set.

Tapered Watermelon 6 (Large)

I love dimension.  The dimension on this card is fabulous!

Tapered Watermelon 7 (Large)

I think I’m going to have to use this for decor in my house for awhile before I can give it away!  It’s so happy 😀

Hello :-)

I finally have all my pictures re-linked to my new domain.  They were lost in the transition.  I will be back with some new creations soon!  Thanks for hanging in there with me.

Have a great day!

Good Morning :-)

For those of you who don't know, my domain was stollen a few days ago.  I have been working frantically with godaddy to get it back.  However, that's not going to happen.  My new domain is My-Afternoons-Delight.com (instead of Afternoons-delight.com).  In the process of changing everything over, I have encountered a few obstacles.  One being that none of my posted pictures are visible.  Typepad has advised me on how I can get these back…one by one.  This will take some time.  Just know that my blog is going to be a work in progress for a few days, and that it will be back to normal soon!  Thanks so much for your patience and understanding.

Have a great day!

Baby Blues

Happy Thursday!  😀

Today is my last project to share for our April release.  I’m using our Shoe Box template.  One of my friends just had a baby boy, so I knew exactly what I wanted to use this box for!


Baby Gift Box 1 (Large)

Anything baby is just plain cute!

Baby Gift Box 2 (Large)

Like the dots?  You can find it in our Blue Skies digital paper pack.  I changed the colors to fit my project before printing.  This bow is made using Abra-Bow-Dabra; easy and amazing cut file!

Baby Gift Box 3 (Large)

This box measures 4 inches tall, 5 1/2 inches wide, and 9 inches long!  I have wrapped up two, three-piece outfits inside.  Nice and roomy!

Baby Gift Box 4 (Large)

Love, love, love this Lil’ One-sie cut file.  I colored and printed the giraffe (from BFF Valentine) to match the dots on my box.  CuTe!

Stop and visit the DT for more goodies!!

Sexy Soles

7 Thoughts

Hello :-)

Have you checked out all our NEW products at My Time Made Easy?  Today I’m showing you a new, fun way to use our Sexy Soles template.  I love thinking “out of the box.”  Possibilities are endless!

Sexy Soles Flip Flops 1 (Large)

Flip flops anyone?  I love them!  I only used the sole layers in the template.

Sexy Soles Flip Flops 2 (Large)

I embossed the soles using a flower embossing folder.

Sexy Soles Flip Flops 3 (Large)

The straps are made out of hemp twine.  I love the beachy feel the flowers give them.

Sexy Soles Flip Flops 4 (Large)

You can find this sentiment in our NEW Sole-Mates stamp set, along with more fun sentiments and images.  I used a digital paper from Under the Cabana for the background.

Have a great day!

Hi!

I hope you all had a Happy Easter!  We had a great day.  Family time is the best <3

It’s RELEASE DAY at My Time Made Easy!  If you like shoes and shopping, this release was meant for you.  Today I’m showing you a NEW template, Handbag.

Cheetah Handbag 1 (Large)

Amazing, right?!  This digi paper is called Chic Cheetah, and is part of our NEW Purse Patterns paper pack.

Cheetah Handbag 2 (Large)

The pockets are emobssed using a bubble embossing folder.  They are attached with dimensionals in the center and tape on the sides so they stick out a little.

Cheetah Handbag 3 (Large)

This template is amazing.  It comes with all these decorative layers and
more, along with step-by-step, photographed instructions!  It makes it
is easy for every crafter.

Cheetah Handbag 4 (Large)

For the card, I used our NEW stamp set Shop Til You Drop.  This set is a collection images that include a boutique sign, two handbag images, a shopping bag, some shoes and sandals, as well as sentiments, that are perfect for that shopper in all of us!

Woven Bag-sket

5 Thoughts

Hi 😀

Today is the final day of our March release!  It’s our Year in Review.  We get to choose ANY template/cut files/stamps/paper and create something fun!  I chose to use one of our NEW cut files.  I made a Bag-sket for Easter…

Bag-sket woven 1 (Large)

I ran my decorative pieces through my Big Shot and a basket weave embossing folder to give the handle and trim texture.  For the body of the basket, I weaved several colors of 1/4-inch ribbon, then trimmed them to fit the basket.  I did this on the front and back.  The egg tag is in our Spring is Here stamp set.

Bag-sket woven 2 (Large)

This is the back.  I love the texture the woven ribbon gives.

Be sure to check out our entire team’s creations!

Have a wonderful day!!
