Treasured Times Shapely Saturday and Shape EZ

Happy Holiday's!!!

There's a NEW contest at the Treasured Times Rubber Stamps Face Book page and it's all about making something out of the square!  lol  Ok, so it's usually out of the box!  But you can win a few of the Shape EZ templates of your own like the Ornament template I used today and make some Shapely projects of your own!!!

Here's what you need to know:

Shapely Saturday Contest:

ALL skill levels are welcome to participate!

Good Morning crafty friends!! It’s time for the FIRST Shapely Saturday contest and I couldn't be more excited to get this contest revved up and started!

Make a shaped project, anything but a square, that includes any of the Treasured Times products.

This contest starts today and runs every other Saturday!

Please upload your Shapely Saturday Contest Photos to the correct folder.  Go to the photos tab. Select the folder (by date) you’d like to add your photo to. Select add photo, upload photo and save.

I want to invite you to create anything other than a square card with us. It does not have to be a Shape EZ template!!!

This contest was designed because sometimes we can get into a 6 x 6 square rut, sound familiar? I find it hard to stay or get motivated and inspired to create if I don’t try something new whether it’s a new pad of paper, a new die or a new card composition. When I buy stamps I will enjoy coloring, I’ve learned that I enjoy creating around the theme of the stamp by designing a shaped card that coordinates with it!

It’s just a simple and fun way to make a project that is out of the ordinary so I created the Shape EZ template product line. The templates can be cut by hand if you run your design paper through your printer or you can use the SVG file in a machine and have it cut for you. Either way, design the project any way you like and enjoy!

Layers of lush and could be a tree ornament too!

The project I’m sharing with you today is with the ornament template and the Brand NEW release of Treasured Times Vintage Sentiment Set, because the Holiday Season is upon us and it makes for a great way to show off the new stamps!   More details on my blog and For more samples of Shape EZ projects, there is a tab at the top of my blog and I invite you to shop my Etsy Store too! Visit me any time, I’ll leave the door open for you!

Hugs,

Hello Mr Snowman ~ Exclusive Stamp By Mi Ran Jung

Hello Treasured Times Friends,

Melanie here coming to you today with a new Christmas Card. I have used one of the newly released rubber stamps from Treasured Times Rubber Stamps. This is an Exclusive stamp By Mi Ran Jung created just for us. Isn't it just precious? I absolutely love snowmen at Christmas time and they are so fun to color. I have also used a "Merry Christmas" sentiment from our newly released "Modern Christmas" Stamp Set. Make sure to check all the newly added stamps over in the STORE under "Recently Added"

 I have used Copic Markers to color my image and used paper from my stash. The die is from Joy! Crafts Dies and I have cut it down to create the shapes shown. Lace and flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

 Here is a close up of my coloring.

Thank you for visiting today. If you would like to follow my work feel free to visit my blog over at www.fairystampland.blogspot.com I really appreciate any comments that are left.

Happy Crafting!

Melanie Smith

Valou - "Brrrrrrrrrrrrr" with "Ppinkydolls"

Hello everybody!

This morning, I come to share my first creation "Inspiration" for "Treaserd Times Rubberstamps"!

It's a Christams' card with a fabulous "Ppinkydolls"!

To realize this card, I used a paper " Pion Design ", "Day's of Winter", some paper " brown Bazzil Cardstock " and some paper " blue Bazzil Cardstock ". Edges are worn out with "Old Distresser" and inked to the ink "Distress Walnut Stain".

On the top, I added a die-cut " Snowflakes " which I realized with a dies " Joy! Craft ". I embossed it with some powder " Frantage-Shabby blue ".

The used image is a digistamp " Treasered Times", "Pinkydolls".

I colorized it in the following way:

- Ink "Distress Tattered Rose" and "Distress Vintage Photo" for the skin.

- Ink "Distress Antique Linen" and "Distress Brushed Corduroy" for hair.

- Ink "Distress Fayed Jeans". 

- Ink "Distress Festive Berries".

- Ink "Distress Mowed Lawn".

- Ink "Distress Walnut Stain".

- Ink "Distress Salty Ocean".

- Glitter Stickels Diamond.

Then, I added a die-cut realized with a dies " Noor! Design ", " Rund 2 ". Above, I stuck the following embellishments:

- White Rose (30 mm) ( WOC).

- Blue carnation (WOC).

- Blue Rose (30 mm) ( WOC).

- Brown Rose (20 mm) ( WOC).

- Light blue carnation (WOC).

Make Dozens of Holiday Cards Quick!

CAS HOLIDAY CARD WITH MI RAN AND A VIDEO

So, every year I'm asked whether or not I can make some cute little Christmas cards for my mom to mail out to relatives!!  Every year, I come up with a card that she is happy with that isn't the type of card that is either going to financially break the bank, or take the entire year to make!!! lol

This year I was blessed with designing for the generous and wonderfully easy to work with Jody Stacy!  The owner of Treasured Times Rubber Stamps store who has recently begun working with one of my favorite stamp artists Mi Ran Jung!!  There are some exclusive designs that Jody has made available in rubber from Mi Ran and I've colored up my favorite so far and designed a CAS Holiday card for mum with it!  

I've created a video showing how to design this quick card with loads of tips I've learned along my crafty journey that I hope inspires you to get out some of those tools you forget you have, use up some of that paper that is too large to toss but too small to create an entire project with, and to save money by altering some of your embellishments with the mediums you already have!   Have fun and enjoy your Holiday card making!

My You Tube channel address is below in case the video doesn't upload!!  Stop by any time to check out some terrific tips and tricks on cutting dies, recycling some of your cut papers on some super quick Holiday makes!!
