Celebrate ~ Craftin Desert Divas Linky Party


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 "July 4th/Canada Day" challenge.

Here is what I created for the challenge:


I thought it would be fun to make this cute puffy star. These could be used for a centerpiece at your next Patriotic celebration and they were super easy to make.


I used some svg files from My Scrap Chick called Puffy Star 3D and Scallop Edge Rosettes.


After I had this assembled I added a star from CDD Banner Dies to the center of my rosette.



Lastly, I added some Baker's Twine and created a tag using CDD Tag it stamps and CDD Say It Big Stamps.

Here is a look at all of the Craftin Desert Divas products I used.

For this card I pulled out some old patterned papers I have had in my stash for a long time. My background paper already had the sun and clouds on and I loved that it has a watercolor look to it. It was the perfect background for my beach theme.

I used the brand new CDD Outdoor Landscape Dies to create the waves and sand for my card.

Turtle Smiles

Hi there! I'm back today to share a fun shaped card I created using the new Cutie KaToodle files from KaDoodle Bug Designs.


This new batch of Cutie KaToodles are all ready for summer!

Here is the card I created:


Aren't these turtles the cutest critters ever! I used two files to make this shaped card, Cutie KaToodles - Lemonade Pitcher Turtle and Cutie KaToodles - Lemonade Turtle.


I cut the glass and pitcher out of vellum and inked the edges with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink.

My sentiment is from Craftin Desert Divas Garden Cuties. I though tit was the perfect sentiment to go with these cute turtles. I know receiving this would make me smile!

Here is a picture of all the products used:

Have a great day, everyone!

My Super Hero ~ Craftin Desert Divas Linky Party


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 "Father's Day" challenge.

Here is what I created for the challenge.


I colored up this cute little superhero from CDD Calling All Superheroes stamp set. The blue mat is from CDD Tag Essentials Dies and I added some of the brand new Freedom sequins which are now available in the CDD Shop.


My sentiment was heat embossed with white embossing powder and I created the paint splattered background with acrylic paint. I wanted something a bit more vibrant.


The inside of my card was stamped with a sentiment from CDD Happy Celebrations and the Boom is from CDD Little Super Star.

Here is a look at all of the Craftin Desert Divas products I used.
