Throwback Thursday & Birthday Celebration Day 4 - My Creative Time

Hello and welcome to another fabulous Throwback Thursday at My Creative Time and the fourth day of my virtual birthday party. Today I am spotlighting My Creative Time. I have been SO SUPER blessed to be on Emma's very first design team. Can I say I have been on cloud 9 for the past 4 months! Emma is one of the sweetest people I know. Not to mention she is EXTREMELY creative and generous. I think she has made some of the MOST BEAUTIFUL sentiment stamps on the market. I seriously LOVE them to death. And she was super smart and has them manufactured by Peachy Keen Stamps, so they are of the utmost quality too.

For today's project we were asked to make a 3-D project and to use any Cricut cartridge that we wanted to use. For my project I made one of these cute baskets. I've seen a lot of them around and wanted to try one for a while.  I saw one just last week on Kristal Andrew's site (Getting Cricky) along with a simple photo tutorial and finally made one. It was super easy and I'm certain I will be making more of these. And The crepe paper ruffles were not an original idea. I have seen them on Kimberly's (My Craft Spot's) blog.

Here are a couple more angles:

Don't Emma's Polka Dot SURPRISE! stamps look beautiful with the polka dot paper? I LOVE this set!

And here is a view of a cupcake with a 'Mickey' on top.
