September MCT Sneak Peek Day #2


Welcome to day #2 of the My Creative Time August Release Week! Have you seen all the beautiful projects today!!! WOW!!! These MCT gals rock!!!! I do have to give a lot of the credit to Emma because her stamps and dies are truly awesome!! Today we are featuring a new tag die called "Just Tags". Well we all know these dies can be used for all sorts of projects! Today, I used the die as a headstone for my creepy cemetery. I just love this card and love how you can turn a tag die into something totally different! The tag usually has a hole on top but I managed to hide it with this cute little spider found in the Treats for My Sweet set. The cat is also found in this set.  I heat embossed the cat and the fence with black embossing powder.  My sentiment came from the Treats for My Sweet set as well. I think it went pretty well with the spooky scene. The card measures 4 by 5 1/2 inches. I finished it off with black lace and stitched around the edges. (My first stitched card! YAY me)
