My Creative Time August Release Blog Hop

Yay, the day is finally here and you can purchase all of your favorite stamps and dies from the My Creative Time August release. If you came here from Cindy B's awesome blog then you are in the right place if not make sure that you start back at Emma's blog so that you don't miss out on anything.

Today I have a couple of projects to share with you.

First of all we are planning a winter trip to Disneyland. I thought it would be fun to give my children some souvenir cash inside a cute little pocket card. I used the ornament die from the Warm Holiday Fun stamp set, the straight black line is also from that set. To make my ornament a Mickey ornament I cut 2 little circles from the circle die in Emma's Build a Banner Kit. The card was made using the  3x3 Tri-Fold Card die that is included with the Card Sentiments set. And last of all the sentiment came from the It's a Magical Season stamp set.

Here is what it looks like opened up. I just glued the sides down to make a little pocket for the souvenir money.

I also made a scrapbook layout that could be used for the upcoming trip.This is an 8 1/2 x 11 sized layout. I just love how it turned out and wish that this picture did it full justice.

Here is a close up of the tag.

This tag is one of Emma's Tag Dies and the sentiment comes from the It's a Magical Season stamp set. I stamped the sentiment in watermark ink and heat embossed it with red tinsel embossing powder. This stuff is SUPER sparkly in person. I love how it looks. I tied it off with some pretty red and white twine.

Here is a closer look at the Polaroid dies that go down the left side.

I did the same thing to make these Mickey ornaments as I did on the cash card above. I cut the pieces out using some pretty Core Couture Glitter cardstock by Core'dinations. It is also super sparkly in person. The middle picture of Mickey and Minnie with Santa actually came from some sheets of stationary I bought at Disneyland a few years back. The 'believe' sentiment came from the From Our Family to Yours stamp set. The fancy edged Polaroid die comes in the new Just Simply Live stamp set.

And last of all here is a closeup of one of the ornaments in the Polaroid die.

This is the set that inspired my blog hop projects today. It is called It's a Magical Season.
