And now on to my creation....

I just LOVE CAS for snow projects. I think less is more! I used the "Let it Snow" sentiment from the Snowman kisses set. Love this set - it's sooooo CUTE! I cut some trees and lightly brushed some white chalk ink on the tree branches.

I used  a die cut to cut a circle and dry embossed dots for a snowy effect. I added some snowflake paper and there ya have a snowy scene. I'd love to look out the window at Christmas and see snow :) I live by the beach and I don't think that's ever going to happen :)

So hop, hop, hop on over to Nicole she had a GREAT project for ya!

I filled the shaker with lots of glitter and a pretty snowflake.

No tag set is complete without a To: & From:

I used the CDD-Snips & Snails to create this tag.

I LOVE these colors for baby boys :)

I used a cut from Cricut New Arrival.

There are so many fun stamps included in this set! I LOVE this one :)

Die Cuttin Divas - Shaped cards

Happy Tuesday!
It's time for another Die Cuttin Diva's Challenge. This week we have a FUN theme - Shaped cards. I'm really getting excited for this week :) It's almost turkey day and I just feel all the gratitude and kindness all around me. I love this time of year.

I started by cutting a scalloped shape card using my cricut. Next I used die cut circles and our generous sponsor StitchyBear Digi-Outlet gave each DT member a Digi to use!

I used the Lil Diva's hanging stockings. I colored the image in with my copics and wink of stella and topped it off with a 3GirlJAM Ribbon.

Please pop over to Die Cuttin Divas Challenge and check out the DT and join us for the challenge! We would love to have you.

Tree-mendous Tags

Hi Everyone!

Yay it's FRIDAY! Hope you have fun plans for the weekend :) I'm hoping to get some shopping done. No black Friday but I'm hoping to pick up an Explore on Wednesday at Joanns. So if you see a better deal, PLEASE let me know. I need the blue tooth so they have a great package deal.  

I really wanted to share these fun tags I made last week using the Craftin Desert Divas set Holly day punnies set. It's a FUN set and has lots of cute sentiments.

 The tree is cut from Cricut Plantin Schoolbook Cartridge and the banner was stamped with one of the fun sentiments.

I added some Gorgeous Cranberry Trendy Twine which makes every project look well dressed :)

Once you cut everything they go together so EASY. I just love making tags and I know I'll use every single one :)

Trendy Happy Thanksgiving Card

Hi There Trendy Fans!

It's my day to post over at Trendy Twine. This month the DT has showcased the GORGEOUS  Thanksgiving Orange Truffle Trendy Twine. I am sharing a card using the same AWESOME twine color and I followed this months challenge. You have a few more days to participate for a GREAT prize. The challenge details HERE. I love Fall colors and I know white isn't usually a Fall color but I just LOVE to use it for Fall decor so I thought I would see how it would work on my card. What do ya think?

I started by stamping a chicken wire stamp on the plain white card stock using a grey ink. Then I distressed all the edges.

Next I opened a pack of Autumn paper and die cut leaves and placed them on a brown piece of card stock which I trimmed to fit in the center. I stamped Happy Thanksgiving and embossed it with white ink.

Lastly, I attached some beautiful Orange Truffle Trendy Twine and gave it a curly twist :) I also added some glitter pen all over but you can barely see it. 

I sure hope you will join us for the challenge or share your projects with us on facebook.

Die Cuttin Divas - Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Tuesday!
It's time for another Die Cuttin Diva's Challenge. This week it's time to get your Thanksgiving projects together and come share with us! Wow, 9 days to go.... I just can't believe the Holiday's are here!
So I created a kind of non traditional Thanksgiving card. I used some colors that I love to use for Fall.

I started with some fun paper from Basic Grey. Then I thought...Chalkboard! So I took the label die from MCT and cut it in black card stock and embossed a sweet Thankful message. I inked a little white on the die cut to give it a chalkboard feel.

I machine stitched the brown plaid mat and added Blue Berry Trendy Twine and a cute little pumpkin.

Please pop over to Die Cuttin Divas Challenge and check out the DT and join us for the challenge! We would love to have you.

I made some snowman tags using the CDD - Holly day punnies set 

I used a tag from TBBM and then added fun embellishments! Peachy Keen Face stamps. Snowmany Faces & Frosted Cranberry Trendy Twine

I stamped the sentiment in colorbox white.

Happy H-OWL-idays - CDD

Hi Friends!
I'm popping in to share a fun little treat with you :) I know I'm going to need lots of treats and holders for the Holiday's so I'm starting now. I'm showcasing a CDD stamp set this month Holly Day Punnies, boy is it ever CUTE!!

I made this tiny little box and attached an owl that I made using my gypsy. I filled this little box with some sweet treats!

This set is too CUTE!!! Love all the sentiments and I'll be sharing a few more throughout the month!

 

The base of the owl is from Cricut.

And look at the fun sentiment and not to mention the GORGEOUS twine Frosted Cranberry Trendy Twine. This color is so PRETTY!

Thanks for stopping by today and have a WONDERFUL weekend!
