Die Cuttin' Divas ~ Challenge #415 Use Any Animal

Hi Crafty Friends, For this week's Die Cuttin' Divas challenge you can use any animal. I'm still working on Easter projects so I used bunnies.

For this cute little treat holder I used some great Authentique papers and the Candy Caddy die from Jaded Blossom.  The bunny dies are from Impression Obsession and the watering can is part of the new Whimsy Stamp release.  I found these yummy crispy carrot candies to put in the treat holder.

Die Cuttin' Divas ~ Challenge #414 Celebrating National Library Day

Hi Crafty Friends, In honor of National Library Day (April 9) we want to share something Reading related for our Die Cuttin' Divas challenge.
Your project can be a book title, character, bookmark, anything to do with books.
I used Jaded Blossom's Ticket Book die to make a bookmark.

This cute little bookworm is from Digital Delights by Louby Loo.  I cut the pre colored version out using my Scan N Cut2.  I also added the heart and word using Jaded Blossom dies.

I hope you'll join us in celebrating the wonders of reading!

Just add your project to the link above.

Jo's Scrap Shack ~ Fun-day Friday Challenge

Hi Crafty Friends, It's Team A's turn to share our inspiration for Fun-day Friday Challenge #276. Remember, our challenges are always ANYTHING GOES. This week's sponsor is Digital Delights by Louby Loo. As I designed this project I felt like I was working with an old friend since Wendy, the owner and creator of Digital Delights by Louby Loo, gave me my first opportunity to design using digital stamps.  I designed for her for over 5 years! Here's my project using two elements from the Mother's Day Value Set.

The images were colored using Copic Markers.  I added Distress Stickles to surround the oval on the inside of the card.  The window was created using Jaded Blossom Stitched and Scalloped Oval dies.

The leaves die is unbranded.  The patterned papers are from Doodlebug Designs.

I hope you'll join in our challenge.  Our sponsor is offering a $5.00 gift voucher to the DD store.

I would like to enter this card in The Pink Gem challenge  ~ week 6, Anything Goes

My Time to Craft ~ Easter or Hedgehogs

Hi Crafty Friends, We're celebrating Easter (or if you prefer, hedgehogs) at My Time to Craft. I love buying the Paper Door monthly kits at Whimsy Stamps.  Not only do you get papers, stamps, dies, and often embellishments, but you also get an entire set of inspired projects with directions from the design team members.  I used the March kit to create this card.

I colored this sweet bunny using Copic Markers.  The frame is a Whimsy build a card die.  The papers and spring die cuts came in the kit as well.  The clouds are a La-La Land Craft die.

Just follow the link above to join in our challenge.  Can't wait to see what you're working on.

Cut it Up Challenge #171 ~ Bunnies or Baskets

Hi Crafty Friends, Only a few more weeks to get your Easter/Spring projects completed. For my Cut it Up Challenge project I decided to make a treat holder using the Goodie Bag Die from Jaded Blossom and some images from The Rabbit Hole Designs Easter Bounty stamp set.

I LOVE the images that are being designed by The Rabbit Hole Designs - they are so easy to color and there's just so much you can do with them.  AND, they have a little bit of sass which is really fun.

I colored using Copic Markers and cut the images out using my Scan N Cut2.

Our challenge sponsor is CAS-ual Fridays.

Hi Crafty Friends, It's the first challenge of the month at Die Cuttin' Divas so that means it's a  SKETCH challenge. Here's my project:

This yummy cake die is from the March 2019 La-La Land Club Kit.  The sentiment is also in the set.  The rest of the sentiment," a piece of cake," is inside the card.  I used dies from both La-La Land Crafts and Jaded Blossom and some of my favorite patterned papers from Doodlebug Designs. I hope you'll join in our sketch challenge this week. Don't forget your die cut!

Pearly Sparkles April Theme ~ Flowers or Showers

Hi Crafty Friends, I hope April 1st didn't fool you!!! We're celebrating Flowers and Showers (or both) this month at Pearly Sparkles.

I used this sweet stamp from Jaded Blossom called May Flowers.  I colored with Copic markers and Wink of Stella.  Along with lots of mats and patterned paper layers, I cut leaves from La La Land Crafts dies and added some flowers. I hope you'll play along with us this month at Pearly Sparkles.

Die Cuttin' Divas Challenge 412 ~ Favorite Color Combination

Hi Crafty Friends, Our Die Cuttin' Divas' challenge for this week is to show your FAVORITE COLOR combination. Well, I have two favorite colors and I especially like to use them together.

Isn't this gnome just too cute.  He's from Stampingbella.  I purchased 3 gnome-themed stamps and I'm excited to start using them.  I wasn't a fan of gnomes until the Scandinavian style gnome got popular.  I think they're adorable. The papers I used are from Doodlebug Designs.  I love their vibrant colors.  I cut the mat and flags with stitched dies from CC Designs and fussy cut the image before I colored using Copic markers. I hope you'll share your favorite color with us.  Just follow the link above. I'd like to enter this card in the Cute N Crafty Challenge - #23 Spring is in the Air.
