My Creative Time Designer Challenge!

Alright, I have been wanting to play with these new toys and finally had the chance.  I have been trying to distract myself lately because I am waiting for all the new Close to My Heart releases to make it to my door!  I am running out of patience!  On with the challenge!

The new Designer Challenge over at My Creative Time is a Square Card Challenge.  Absolutely time to pull out my new 3x3 Tri-Fold Card Die and make something sparkly!  I just so happened to be in need of a special thank you card for a special hostess.  I had some remnants from a retired CTMH Lucy Paper Packet that would work beautifully.

This is absolutely my kind of stitching on this little 3x3 card--fake!  ;)  The die does it all for me.  You can see how the card opens below.

This adorable doily die from My Favorite Things IS now one of my favorite things!  Isn't it dainty in the White Daisy CS?

If you love Close to My Heart's buttons like I do, you better run, not walk to snatch some up...because they are almost out of stock and history!  They will not make an appearance in the next Idea Book.  Not these, anyway!  ;)  BUT, do not fear!  The silver shimmer trim is there...along with some new colors!!!

I used the "thank you" sentiment from MCT's I'm Here for You Rain or Shine.  Instead of using it in a straight line, though, I split it up to fit this second doily...

I REALLY loved decorating this little card!  It is just so dainty and cute! It was just what I needed to pass the time until my new CTMH product comes!  Thanks for stopping in, and be sure to check out the Square Card Challenge over at My Creative Time!
