Welcome back everyone!

I really hope you are having a wonderful New Year.

I myself have been keeping super busy post holiday, planning products for the year, and embarking on several endeavors. We also added a new addition to our home recently 😀

Her name is Harper.

She is a 6 month old  Cavalier/Shichon mix, otherwise known as “Teddy Bear” dog.  You can read about her breed here <—check out the blue box.

Alexa picked out her name, and Amber agreed it was perfect. She is the prettiest wizard on Wizards of Waverly Place! LOL! I love that she was so excited to share her opinion on what we should name the dog, and actually had a great suggestion.

 So we adjusting to the new change o this little furbaby bundle. She is adjusting so well, and is just a love.

Daisy is so happy to have a friend now!

This is Daisy at Christmas.

She is a cockapoo (a fabulous breed of dog!) and is is 4 now, and happy to share her family. When we brought Harper home, Daisy took her favorite toy Fox and dropped it in front of Harper, ready to play! They are so sweet together.

OK sorry I got a little off track. It’s been a long while since I’ve rambled! LOL! I have much more to share when the time is right, so I thank you for letting me share a little of my world again. Feels good 😀

Since we are coming back off a holiday we are keeping it light this month.

The team and I are all posting some projects today to kick start a new year of ideas.

Stop by and visit the team for a plethora of new ideas with our older products!

I would like to extend a HUGE thank you to the entire MTME team (and the product designers of course) for all their hard work this past year, and being there for me in every way. They are an amazing group of women that I am so blessed to have come to know. I extend my gratitiude to all the members on the Palette & Sketch team, which partake in weekly challenges on our blog. We all work together to share what we love and their support means the world to me.

Moving on…..

My project today will use a new template, the Sweet Treat Tote, but combined with something old and something new 😀

With winter comes cold days, and even chillier nights. I personally love a good cup of hot cocoa to warm me up, with some chocolate dipped biscotti. What better gift, than to share something you love with someone else?

So, I packaged up some of my favorite hot cocoa: Starbucks Salted Caramel.

It is LOVE in a cup, I swear. I find adding it to warm fat free cream gives it a RICH amazing taste, as oppose to milk, with less fat/calories.

I always use my gift item as the source of my design inspiration. In fact, that is why I began papercrafting in the first place. I love being able to package up and customize my gift packaging to coordinate with my gift.

This package has a set of 8 cocoa packets! A great gift idea, year round.

My cocoa was inserted into the slide in box option, as you can see from the side view. Makes it easy to take out, and give a nice presentation.

I made my tote from chocolate cardstock. I applied an acetate sheet over the window that that I could add my main image to it! You can see that in the photo above.

I used the NEW! Sweet Sentiments for the design on my window. I printed it on vanilla cardstock, then colored it in. I love adding the white pen to the foam so it pops out at you.

My paper is from the All Steamed Up © collection, with the text print re-colored to coordinate with my steam pattern that I chose for the top part of the decorative layer.

 Be sure you take the time to visit each one of our talented design team members.

Hey Cupcake:

  • Debbie Marcinkiewicz
  • Kathryn Berthiaume
  • Monique Hansen
  • Sweet Treat Tote:

  • Katie Cotton
  • Lisa Kind
  • Tangii Crain
  • So let me share my sample using the Hey Cupcake Template!

    This template is perfect for packaging up a variety of items that AREN’T cupcakes. You can alter the lid window, and by NOT using the insert, this can be a fabulous box for so many treat ideas.

    My paper really set the theme for my creation. It is from the Cool Cooking © collection. It’s so fun and whimsical. I decided that I would show a “kitchen” themed wrapping, which could be used on so many ideas like mini bread loafs, mixes, muffins to name a few.

    Having done the kitchen theme, this is great for a house warming gift or happy holidays gift too.

    My bowl/eggs were created from the What’s Cookin’ © and the Yummy Sentiments © set, then digitally colored to match, and cut/layered several times for a fun look.

    OK so back to my packaging….

    This packaging is perfect for my Kitchen Spice Candle set (from Bath & Body Works).These candles smell wonderful and are always a great gift.

    Who would think that they could present so perfectly in here too!

    While they fit in the insert, I removed it for this project, just so you get can idea of the possibilities and actual size. This is large enough to fit so many wonderful items.

    Now back to the idea of giving candles…..this template/insert fits the ever-popular Yankee Candles too!

    This is another Kitchen Spice candle, but from a different company.

     MANY candle companies usethese adorable jars to package their candle scents, so there are so many possibilities.

    You can often buy these little jars, so you can fill them with your own homemade candles, candies or other goodies too.

    Something else that fits are the metal tins—>FOUND HERE CHEAP! 

    Don’t forget you can alter your insert cut-outs to suit your project shape/size/needs or omit it all together.

    Alteration include your lid cut outs too. It’s nice having a peek at what’s inside, but you can change the shape or omit the cut-outs all together.

    I love having versatility, and this certainly fits the bill 😀

    The curved top gives it that little something extra. I love having this long/tall/wide/deep box option. You can use it for all sorts of items, including: knit/silk scarves, and gloves. I also love the idea of using it for crafty stuff, coffee/tea, bath products, homemade goodness, baking/cooking mixes, jewelry, cosmetics….the list goes on and on.

    We have so many more projects to share with all of you, so come back tomorrow for even more creative and inspiring ideas. I know I cannot wait to share my creations with you.

    See you tomorrow.

    We are back again today with our last peek at what’s NEW! for the January Release tomorrow!

    Today you will want to visit:

  • Debbie Marcinkiewicz
  • Kathryn Berthiaume
  • Monique Hansen
  • as they are each sharing a peek at the Sweet Treat Tote!

    This is a versatile template with three insert options, so don’t miss the projects from the team and I.

    I think you will all enjoy the many possibilities this package has 😀

     Sweet Treat Tote

    I will show you how amazing this package is by sharing my project here, using the 3 options you have. I am using the same tote cover, and will use the 3 insert options.

    Available in PDF, SVG, GSD, DXF, WPC

    Completed Project Size:

    6 Inches Tall

    4 3/4 Inches Wide

    3 Inches Deep

    What could be sweeter than a tote that not only carries your sweets, but presents your treats in 3 different, but fabulous ways? Talk about versatility!

    You can package up a plethora of items in here using 3 different box inserts that fit into one fabulous tote!

    From store bought/homemade lollipops and candy, to bath & body products, or some homemade stationary! So many possibilities in this one tote, whatever you choose to use it for will certainly be a treat for whomever you gift it to.

    The handle is fun, functional and convenient.

    This template can open up, or the inserts can slide in.

    I love monochromatic colors as it is easy to get a stunning look with little effort.

    This is option #1, using the large box insert.

    This is a favorite option of mine 😀

    It can hold a lot of items. I love the look of the large box and the open window. You can leave it open or cover it with acetate. You can also totally omit the window and change the window shape for even more possibilities!

    I was inspired by the bath/beauty products for my design on the box.

    I used the flowers and flourishes from the Fanciful Flourishes © set. The tag sentiment is from the Well Preserved © set with the flowers from the So Sentimental © set.

    Now we got to option #2

    This is a fun box base that fits perfectly into the bottom of the Sweet Treat Tote.

    Makes a perfect holder for so many gifts.

    The base ends under the window cut out so you cannot see it, and it is large enough to hold your items without it spilling out.

    Next we get to option #3

    Using the same box base (above), and turn it around, we offer a lollipop template for you to insert and display your beloved sweet treats!

    You can also alter the cut outs to suit other project ideas like pencils (with toppers), party tubes or whatever else you can dream up!

     With cake pops becoming so popular now this would become a fabulous holder to transport and present them too.

    A tip: For heavy pops/items use florist foam or Styrofoam under the template for the sticks to insert in to.

    January Preview: Hey Cupcake!

    Jan 5, 2012 Author: mytime | Filed under: Home decor/3-D items, My Time Made Easy

    I know it’s been forever since I’ve posted. Sorry about that. My updates have usually been on Facebook as I’ve been too busy to post here. I have been busy this past month making gifts for family, friends and teachers, and really enjoying the holidays with my children and family. I hope you all had a great holiday with your loved ones too!

    Santa was extra good to me this year, as he brought me a new cutting system the Silhouette Cameo! This is an amazing machine! AMAZING! Check out the video at their site. It works with the My Time Made Easy ™ LLC Pretty Packaging Templates and cut files. You can use it with GSD, DXF and with a software upgrade (which is fabulous) you can use SVG files!!

    I’m in absolute heaven with it and its accuracy and detail for intricate cuts. Another AMAZING feature: You can use a print and cut feature to print and cut out your digital images! No more hand cutting. This machine is beyond amazing and I highly recommendit if you are in the market for a new machine 😀 Goodbye Cricut! I’m also selling my NEW! Black Cat Cougar Lynx <— It is a expensive machine that is too complicated for me, but may be good for someone else.

    OK enough of that. I’m just excited having a new machine….so let me share what I came for, and that is for your first peeks at our January Release products which will be made available for purchase on January 8th!

    Today our first preview is of a NEW! Pretty Packaging Template called Hey Cupcake!

    So make sure you visit:

  • Katie Cotton
  • Lisa Kind
  • Tangii Crain
  • for some amazing ideas using this new package!

    Hey Cupcake

    Available in PDF, SVG, GSD, DXF, WPC

    Completed Project Size:

    6 1/2 Inches Wide

    3 1/2 Inches Deep

    3 1/2 Inches Tall

    Store bought baking boxes just aren’t as fun as this!

    Now you have a perfect way to give and display your sweetest creations!

    This adorable, and completely customizable bakers box comes complete with dual cupcake insert (optional), so you can give something sweet with that special creative touch that will not only fill their tummy, but warm their heart.

    For my design on this box I used the Farmhouse Fresh © digital paper on my box lid. 

    The window frames were stamped using the Killer Curves: Fancy Frames set, in white stazon, on the acetate.

    The cupcake is from the NEW! Sweet Treats Digital Stamp Set  (releasing on Jan. 8th) Designed By Sara Williams. This is a delicious set of sweet images that are certain to make any occasion scrumptious! You can’t tell by the photos but the cupcake is cut and layered several times, and the cherry is a rhinestone. The cupcake is layered onto the Frame Me © cut file.

    What better way to present and package up your sweet treats!! I actually didn’t make this cupcake, even though it looks homemade! I bought it as a cupcake single at Target in the food section.

    Cupcake Insert : 2 1/2 Inches Around-Can be altered to suit your project needs.

    This box is seriously fun, functional and easy to assemble.

    You will want to start making cupcakes just to package them up 😀

    Don’t let its name fool you!

    This box can hold more than a cupcake duo! It can also can hold a variety of baked goodness/gifts/items too. You can opt to not use the insert, as the box in itself is fabulous, or alter your insert cut outs (and lid cut outs) to further suit your gift giving needs.

    A Box is a Box (Year in Review)

    Dec 1, 2011 Author: mytime | Filed under: Home decor/3-D items, My Time Made Easy

    Be sure you check out what the design team has done for our Year in Review using the Box is a Box template:

    With the stressful holidays we could all use something that we can whip together, and is stress free, but fabulous! This is THE perfect template for any time where time is tight and you want something wonderful, with little effort, but lots of impact!

    I created a four season themed gift box using all 4 cut outs that come with the A Box is a Box template.

     I LOVE the 13 oz. STRESS RELIEF eucalyptus spearmint sugar scrub!

    Once again my packaging was designed to suit my gift.

    This was made for my brother’s girlfriend for her birthday. This is her favorite color, and she loves pampering 😀 As a new mommy she deserves it too. Inside I included a gift certificate to get some Spa stuff too 😀 Her favorite place (per my brother).

    Packaged with care sentiment, and bird silhouette is from the Well Rounded © set, printed then cut using the Simple Tags Collection © cut file.

    The bow was created using the Abra-Bow-Dabra © cut file.

    Here are all the box angles…

    As you can see, everything you need is included, and it doesn’t take much to make this basic box become an amazing gift in itself!

    No stress.

    Easy and elegant, any time of year.

    Change out your cut outs to suit the occasion and you have a FAB gift box for everyone you know.

    Resize it to suit your needs, and the possibilities are endless!

    So here’s to a stress-free holiday with loved ones near or far, and a healthy and happy new year!

     

    The December Release is HERE!

    2 NEW! Pretty Packaging Templates

    4 NEW! Pretty Impressions Stamp Sets

    6 NEW! Pretty Printable Digital Paper Collections

    4 NEW! Pretty Pieces Cut Files

    Please view our Gallery for project samples, and alternative ways to use all our amazing coordinating products! You may also want to check out our blog for weekly challenges, and even more amazing ideas.

      In honor of our December Release each member of the design team has put together a gift package using the NEW! A Box is a Box template, which has two box options for ONE price!

    Now let me share some details about this amazing new template!

    A Box is a Box $5

    Available in PDF, SVG, GSD, DXF, WPC

    Completed Project Size:

    5 X 5 Inches Wide

    4 Inches Deep/Tall

    Note: Includes 2 box options & 4 unique cut outs

    Sometimes a box is *just* a box.  Sometimes it’s so much more!

    It really is all about the details. The simplest detail can really have a huge impact. Often that detail doesn’t have to be over the top, just well thought out. We’ve turned your typical box into a total WOW!

    With this template we’ve included (4) stunning cut outs that can be used for any occasion. The cut outs represent the symbols of the four seasons and include: Flower, Leaf, Tree, and Snowflake.

    Mix and match the symbols, and use on one, two or all 4 sides. You can also use whatever other shapes/symbols you have in your collection for a new and unique creation every time! Use a monogram letter too, to further customize the package.

    This template offers 2 box options, as seen above.

    One option is a box base, with lid.

    Here I used the lid, and cut the leaf image into the front/back panels.

    To customize this gift I printed a strip of paper using the Parade of Patterns ©, and stamped the initials NV from the Monograms Defined © set, then cut a tag from the Tag You’re It ©, and hung it from my bow.

     The bow around the box was created using Abra-Bow-Dabra ©.

    I actually designed this box to fit larger items, like the 3 wick candles from Bath & Body Works.

    This candle/holder was a gift for Amber’s teacher, for her birthday. Amber LOVES her teacher, and was excited to give this to her.

    The bow slides right off the box, to present your gift.

    Now you can use the 4 cut out options that come with this template or whatever other shape/symbols you have!

    The other box is a box with a petal fold closure at the top.

    So when just a plain ole’ box won’t do, this is the package just for you!

    This box has the same roominess of the box w/lid, just a different finished look.

    This will also hold those large 3 wick candles from Bath & Body Works, with room to spare.

    You can see the candle through the cut out in the window. Too fun!

    Use it to package up body products, coffee mugs/supplies, handmade knit/crochet scarves, hats, or mittens, socks, new baby or bridal gifts…delicious treat…whatever you decide this is the perfect box.

    Decorate it to suit your gift giving needs. Here I designed my box based on my candle colors, and I created my box to match it.

    This box uses the same base, but has different side options for a fun petal top closure, perfect for every occasion.

    I chose to use the flower from the set of symbols for my front/back sides of this template.

    Here I stamped the sentiments from the Take Time © set. The bow was topped off with the flowers stamped with  Petal Perfection © and cut using the Petal Perfections © Cut File.

    Simple & elegant.

    Nov 29, 2011 Author: mytime | Filed under: Home decor/3-D items, My Time Made Easy

    Happy Holidays!

    This truly is the best time of year. A time when we reflect on the past year, look forward at what is to come, and make time by showing those we love that they truly are the most cherished to us.

    I am so thankful for so many reasons. First and foremost I am thankful for the love, health, and happiness of my children, husband, mother, our family, and friends (near & far). I can say that and really mean it as I’ve been through many times where the people most dear to me weren’t blessed with their health. I know firsthand no one is guaranteed tomorrow, and each day with a loved one truly is a gift, not a guarantee. By the grace of God I can still spend time with my loved ones, and have been shown how precious time and life is. I appreciate that daily.

    I’m also thankful for our home, that I get to raise our children in, and that I get to spend every moment I want to with them, as I “work” by sharing what I love doing with the world.

    I’m thankful for every opportunity I have ever been blessed with, and all the people who have supported me along my journey, including my design team past/present, loyal customers, blog readers and cyber friends too. Many of you have followed me from the beginning of my paper crafting endeavours and I appreciate that immensely. As the new year approaches I have much I will share over time as I continue to evolve in this industry and share what I love with you all.

    As we approach this holiday season I want to wish you and yours a wonderful year of love, health, happiness and dreams come true.

    That being said this release is being kept “light” so that myself and my design team has more time to focus on and enjoy their time with their families, and not be bogged down with blog posts and assignments. Our January release will also take place a week later than usual, peeks beginning Jan. 6th to once again allow them family time during the holiday season.

    So without further delay let me start with the a preview at tomorrows release (with more to come tomorrow)

    Completed Project Size:

    1 1/8 Inches Tall

    4 3/4 Inches Long

    3 3/4 Inches Wide

    This fun gift box is the perfect holder for the perfect gift!

    Note: Inside I chose to use the Money Well Spent ©set to cover my gift card.

    Gift cards are becoming more and more popular. Who doesn’t love a guilt free shopping spree, or the opportunity to pick out something  truly loved/wanted without the cost?

    Just insert any gift card into the slot, and you have the perfect presentation, every time!

    With gift card giving on the rise the search for fun new ways to package them continues! Well now you can “insert card here”! The box insert perfectly holds all gift cards making it the perfect package!

    This is the plain, ole insert option. Maybe you want  a cute lil’ box? Just don’t insert the gift card holder, and you have an even cuter gift box for cash, jewelry, candy, mini soaps…or whatever else you can dream up!

    Perfect for the holidays, birthdays or ANY day!

    Be sure you check out the Money Well Spent set   for even more gift giving possibilities!

     You can keep the design super simple too!

    Make it look like a LEGO by just adding some circles, on dimensionals to the top!

    So many boys love LEGO’s! In fact we gave this to one of Noah’s friends for his birthday, with a gift card to Toys R’ Us, so he can pick out his own favorite LEGO gift, hassel free.

    Just open the gift box to reveal your gift card! Kids LOVE IT! And the shape will throw anyone off as to what you may actually have inside!

    I kept the inside simple. I used the SK8R Boy © set, with the Money Well Spent © set, so I could add the amount on the gift card.

    Fun, easy and for a ONE TIME purchase you can make as many as you want/need, and customize them for every occasion.

    Now you may be wondering about more the details of that bow on the first project!

    Bow-Tied $2.50

    Available in PDF, SVG, GSD, DXF, WPC

    This is the ultimate bow made of paper! If you like the Abra-bow-dabra Cut File you will love this.

    Make the perfect bow time and time again. No more wasting ribbon or hunting for that perfect color or pattern to suit your project needs because now you can make your own time and time again.

    Resize it to suit your gift giving needs.

    This is the perfect bow atop any Pretty Packaging Template, or add it to a three dimensional item like a centerpiece, wreath or Christmas Tree. Endless uses, endless possibilities.

     Here I used the Serenity © digital paper collection to print my bow here!

    Imagine all the possibilities 😀

    November: Holiday Year in Review

    Nov 3, 2011 Author: mytime | Filed under: Home decor/3-D items, My Time Made Easy

    Welcome back!

    Ready to get some amazing holiday ideas? I know I am!

    Check out what the team has to share:

  • Debbie Marcinkiewicz
  • Kathryn Berthiaume
  • Katie Cotton
  • Lisa Kind
  • Monique Hansen

  • Well its the last day of November Release group post projects, but the ideas don’t ever END there. Our team posts regularly on our Company Blog <—CLICK ME! We offer an amazing set Palette & Sketch challenges each week, so check it out, and if you play along you get a chance at winning a Pretty Package Prize of YOUR choice 😀

    OK so it’s my turn to use something old, with our something new! We had so many amazing templates this month it was hard to cram all the ideas I have had into one release, especially with all the gifts I have to make 😀

    Season’s Greeting to you and yours

    As I mentioned upon previewing the To the Point/Dreidle Box template, this is one versatile box!

    I chose to used the rounded ends for this one, and let me tell you, it is one fun gift box. I am using it to hold a box of truffles that a friend of mine is fond of.

    Another great way to dress up something inexpensive, but let’s them know you care, no matter what your budget.

    I love how elegant and fun the rounded out edges looked, tied perfectly closed 😀

    My design all started with my Mrs. Candy Claus © paper, which I replaced the green in for a more girly feel.

    I used the Well Rounded © set to create my tag, which was cut using the Well Rounded Tag © cut file.To decorate my tag, I adorned it using the Beautiful Baubles © set, which looks amazing in this tag. The sentiment that goes across the ornmement is also in that set.

    Added a bow, a pink bell, and some glittery fronds and this is more than just a simple gift option.

    I have many more plans for this one, and I hope I get to share them all soon!

    Let’s start with some cookies for Santa!!

    This one was SOOOO easy.

    I created the Cover-All template from white cardstock. I had some textured cardstock in red, and cut the decorative panel from that, then cut and assembled my belt.

    It was really that easy. This came together in under 10 minutes.

    You can make a bunch of these for classmates, teachers, students, co-workers, teachers, the mailman, or whoever you want to give a sweet treat to.

    The bag of homemade cookies are all wrapped up and tied closed with bakers twine. The tag was punched, then stamped using the Secret Santa © set.

    Now to add to the festive holiday ideas, we are always so focused on Santa, what about his very best helper-the little worker elf!

     

    So if you have someone special on your list, you may want to give this one a try. I used the fun Candy Claus © collection for my worker elf apron.

    In here I packaged up one of my favorite things (to give and receive) and that is the pre-mixed coffee drinks. Target now has a low fat option (only 100 calories) in several yummy flavors. You receive 4 for just a few dollars. MUCH cheaper than the Starbucks brand, and just as yummy.

    Pair it with something chocolate-YUM!

    For the top of my coffee bottle, I needed to dress it up!

    So I used the Grab a Cup © set, paired with the Fancy a Cuppa? Add-On ©set. I think this a super cute label, and far better than that plain topped metal lid.

    Doesn’t it look scrumptious?

    In our house I have 3 special helpers, that an elf themed Cover-All package would be perfect for. I was thinking of making this and packaging up some cocoa mixes, marshmallows and peppermint stix!

     What are you going to cover up this holiday season?

    I love getting more ideas, so please share if you can!
