Happy Planner week 10/17 - 10/23 ~ Craftin Desert Divas October Release

Hey Hey!! Wow! What a week!

If you have been following then you know that Craftin Desert Divas has release some great new stamps and dies this week.

Today the designers are sharing even more projects showcasing the new stamps and dies and I for one am very excited to show you my project.

I used the new Coffee Break stamps.

Check it out:


This is probably my favorite spread I have done! It was the first time I added a photo and I love the colors I chose. I used a lot of CDD products because they work so well together.

Here are a few more close up pictures. I will list all products used at the end.



This is a picture of my husband and I. I love it!


I created a shaker dashboard to add to my planner. Inside are stamped and colored images, sequins, and seed beads.




Copic markers were used to color all of my images and I really just stuck to a few colors.

Make sure to check out all of the new Craftin Desert Divas new release HERE.

Autumn Wishes ~ CDD Social Media Challenge

Hi There! Today I have a card that I made to go with Craftin Desert Divas Social Media Challenge.

If you haven't heard of this challenge then let me explain.

Every month Craftin Desert Divas provides a Mood Board. Using the Mood Board as a jumping off point you create a project using CDD products. You post on various social medial outlets ie. Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and used the #CDDMONTHLY

You also need to upload your picture to the Craftin Desert Divas Gallery.

This is October's Mood Board


Here is the card I made:



I started with a water colored panel and used dies to cut out a window from patterned paper.

I added my colored images and a little ribbon for an accent.

Products listed below.

There's still time to participate in this challenge. Please join us on Facebook to get in all the fun!

October Monthly View with CDD stamps

Hi Guys! I finally finished my October monthly view in my Happy Planner and this is the result.


I followed along with Craftin Desert Divas social media challenge.


The idea is to use the mood board for inspiration and then post your project on social media using the #cddmonthly

This is the mood board:



I used Craftin Desert Diva stamps and dies for this spread. I will list the items used below.


It is a bit plain but the point is to just mark some particular events I know are coming up.


I made this witch hat clip following a tutorial on Splitcoaststampers. You can find it here.

I hope you will join in the fun challenge on the Craftin Desert Divas Gallery Facebook Page! You can get in on all the fun HERE.

Spooky Cute Planner Spread with Craftin Desert Divas

Hi there! I am here to share a little spooky cute planner spread with you today. It's being featured on the Craftin Desert Divas Blog, too!


I love all the fun products that you can find in the Craftin Desert Divas shop. The planner stamps and dies make it easy to create a spooky cute spread!


I used the Doodlebug papers throughout along with the Doodlebug Washi to give the spread a nice cohesive look.


Isn't the planner clip super adorbs!! I love it!

Adding all the images was super easy, too. I was able to use the svgs that coordinate with the stamps. I stamped them on to the cut pieces using my Misti tool and colored them with Copic markers. 

All of  the products are listed at the end.

I hope this helps you get into the Halloween crafty mood!

Please be sure to share your CDD projects in the CDD Facebook Gallery. We would love to see them!!
