Die Cuttin' Diva's - Anything Goes

Hello There!

I hope everyone is well, It's Tuesday and welcome to another challenge day over at DCD, this week is everyone's favorite - Anything Goes. So come show us what you are working on as long as it includes a die cut.

I have a little lollipop favor to share. These can be used as party favors, or Valentine treats.
Oh my gosh, I picked up this adorable lollipop die from MCT and I just LOVE it.

It is so perfect for the mini lollipops and I just love how it has the holes that are perfect for my Cherry-Cupcake-Trendy-Twine

I added a die cut heart to my favor and then put in my mini lollipop and tied it up with the Trendy Twine. Oh these would be great for Classroom treats!

Trendy Twine - Treats & Sweets

Hi there!

I'm over on the Trendy Blog with a treat pouch for Valentines day using our spotlight twine Totally Red Trendy Twine

Oh I just love anything mini and this little mini pouch/pillow box is so perfect for packing up those mini treats and even more perfect with gorgeous wrapped in Totally Red Trendy Twine.

I used some heavy duty white card stock and die cut the box. I made a belly band with some Valentine theme paper.
I attached a fun tag that I stamped with a sentiment from the This is December 2 using some red ink.

Then I just filled it up with candy!

What a great little classroom Valentine treat too!

Die Cuttin' Diva's - Snowflakes or Snowman

Hi There!

It's Tuesday and welcome to another challenge day over at DCD, this week we have a very appropriate challenge for many parts of the U.S. Come and show us your Snowflakes or Snowman projects. Now we don't get snow where I live but the temps have dipped into the 30's (well 39) which is SUPER cold for us beach wimps :) and we've had so much rain but we LOVE that it's raining we have been in a severe drought so bring it on!! Okay back to the challenge.... share your Snowflakes or Snowman projects at DCD just be sure to use a die cut.

Here is a tag I made using lots of dies.
I started with a flag banner die for the tag itself and added some stitched square die cuts. I used some fun enamel accents to create snow, and sentiment from APB Let-It-Snow-Stamp-Set

I used the MCT build a snowman set for my cute snowman and added a peachy face. Lastly, I added some pretty aqua sheer ribbon.

Trendy Twine - Happy Valentine's Day

Hi there!

I'm over on the Trendy blog sharing a some Valentine treats using our spotlight products this month Totally Red Trendy Twine & Skinny Candy Bags. The perfect combo for Valentine's day.

I made some sweet treats without all the sugary sweet :) I filled the Skinny Candy Bags with two Valentine pencils.


Next I used a die tag to create some fun tags and tied them with Totally Red Trendy Twine.
A great option for classroom treats. When my son was in elementary school most of the classes no longer allowed sugary treats so I always had to come up with a different option. This is easy and still cute.

Pop over to the APB store and grab yours today.

Die Cuttin' Diva's - Dragons

Hi There!

It's Tuesday and welcome to another challenge day over at DCD, this week we have something fun... It's a dragon challenge. I'm not sure if you realize this or not but there are so many cute SVG's for dragons. I didn't even think to look and just remembered a few tutorials on pinterest for monster and dragon cards and I went with that idea. So this would be great if you didn't want to get out the electronic die cutting machine and just use a manual :)
I started with a A2 size card and embossed the front with a dot folder and then took an edge die and cut the front flap of the card to create a mouth shape.


I used lots of die cut circles for eyes and just hand cut the eyebrows. More die cut circles for the nose and then some hand cut teeth were attached to the inside front flap. You can stamp or write your sentiment on the inside under the face :)

                      Pretty simple and I think it turned out kinds cute :)

Die Cuttin Diva's - Thanks snow much

Hi There!

It's Tuesday and welcome to another challenge day over at DCD, this week we have a great sketch for you. I love to play with a sketch especially when I can't find any inspiration... yes it does happen, usually at this time too. Right after all the Holiday fun. After looking at the sketch for a bit I could see exactly what I wanted.
The mat itself is die cut with a rectangle stitched die. I decided to flip the sketch...


Next, I added a snowflake die cut and some washi tape. The fianl touch is a cute sentiment from APB Let-It-Snow-Stamp-Set.
