Die Cuttin Diva's - Picture Inspriration

Happy Tuesday!!

It's time for another Die Cuttin Divas Challenge. Today's challenge is a picture inspiration. Create a project keeping the picture inspiration in mind.

Doesn't that sound like fun? If you haven't been by the DCD blog yet, please take a minute and look at the fabulous projects!

 I created a home decor project for Fall, using the gorgeous colors in the photo.
I thought this would look great on my Fall table. I didn't have time to decorate my table but in the coming weeks I'll share, I LOVE decorating for Fall.

So It's a pretty simple project and you could actually place a string on the back of the letter and hang on your door too. I used about 4 pieces of chipboard and 1 piece of cardstock. So it's actually really sturdy almost like wood. I ran the cardstock through the cuttlebug with a Tim Holtz wood print embossing folder and then added a flower that has been in my craft room for years :), some burlap jute, and a litle metal. 

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.

Craftin Desert Divas Linky Party - "Back to School"



Happy Monday!
Today is the Craft It Up & Link It Up Linky Party hosted by Tara of Craftin Desert Divas! Every other Monday will mark the beginning of a new semi-weekly linky party and you could win fabulous prizes!! Welcome to our mid post for this weeks "Back to School" challenge.  Visit Craftin Desert Divas for all the rules and to play along.

One stamp set

$10 code


Clearsnap gave each DT member some beautiful ink and Art daubers 


I just couldn't wait to ink up these daubers with this fabulous ink.....

I started with a stencil I created using a chevron pattern and I used the actual chevron cut out like a stamp. I used white colorbox ink and then embossed it. Once it dried I just used the daubers to add the rainbow of colors.

I used some great papers from DCWV and the CDD School zone stamp set and paper pieced the apple and worm and stamped the sentiment on the finished pattern. Lastly, I added some pretty Peppermint Stick Trendy Twine. I love how it turned out! Thank you Clearsnap for the fun products!!

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!
