I recently pruchased a bunch of new goodies from Peachy Keen Stamps one of which was the new face stamps called kawaii face assortment pk1370 ohhhhh they are so CUTE! So I had to put them to work:)

I figured a sun is the perfect image for the new Craftin Desert Diva's Summer lovin Set

Summer Lovin'

I really wanted that sun and sentiment to stand out so I left this really clean and simple. So you see those yellow/orange dots.... I made them by melting perler beads in the oven.  I was on facebook one evening and Raven of love 4 stamps posted that she made some and so I wanted to try. Very easy and super CUTE!

Paper - Bazzill & American Crafts

Clouds - My Creative Time Cloud Die

Sun Cricut Doodlecharms cartridge

Twine - Lemon Tart Trendy Twine

Don't forget... if you purchased a set from CDD, please make a project and enter the challenge or join the Craftin Desert Divas Gallery and show us your creation!

Have a WONDERFUL day!

Why did the chicken cross the road.....

Hi Everyone!

I've been super busy lately and just finally had the chance to play with some new fun crafty toys :) I fell in love with the new chicken stamps at Peachy keen stamps. They recently had a contest to suggest some chicken sayings and guess what... a couple of mine won. So they graciously sent the winners the sets that they made with our suggestions - how awesome is that!! Thank you Peachy keen stamps!! I didn't use the sentiments that I suggested on my card here but I have those projects coming soon!

Can you see why I fell in love with these little chickens :) I started with the new sketch challenge over at PKS.

Apple of my eye - Craftin Desert Divas "Punny"

For the Die Cuttin Diva Umbrella challenge please go HERE

Hi everyone, 

I'm sharing a card over at Craftin Desert Divas. Please pop over and check out the new stamps. 

I just loved the 3 stamp sets in the new release, they are so fun!  For this card I used the new Punny stamp set.

I wanted to show that you can use the Punny stamp set and make a more traditional card. I know not every crafter uses face stamps and thought I would give you a different look and another option for this set. 

Look at the clean crisp look of these stamps.

I used an apple from the Cricut Cartridge Plantin Schoolbook
