Fluttering By... ~ With Craftin Desert Divas

Hi There! It's my turn to share a little inspiration on the Craftin Desert Divas Blog. This is what I am sharing today.

I knew I needed to make a thank you card and knew that my Craftin Desert Divas stamps would be perfect for this!


I decided to have some fun and make a Bokeh background for my images.

I used Distress inks in Milled Lavender, Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, and Evergreen Bough for my background.

I chose images from the Just Bugcause set and colored them with alcohol markers. These images were then paired with a sentiment from the Lil Bit Buggie stamp set.


I added a bit of Wink of Stella to my images for a little sparkle.

For the inside of my card added another sentiment from the Simply Said stamp set.


I love how all of these stamps can be mixed and matched with one another!

Here is a look at all the sets I used on this card.







These stamps and many more are available in the Craftin Desert Divas Shop!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!

Blooming for You ~ 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 "Mother's Day" challenge.


Here is what I created for the challenge:


I used a cut file from KaDoodle Bug Designs called Flower Fairies. I thought this cute was just adorable! I pieced her together and gave some Peachy Keen eyes from PK-1321 In the Garden Faces.

I then layered her on some patterned paper that were cut with the Craftin Desert Divas Banner Dies.

 My sentiment is from Craftin Desert Divas Blooming For You stamp set.

Here is a look at the Craftin Desert Divas products used:

Eyes for You

Hi there! Today I am sharing a fun shaped card using a file from KaDoodle Bug Designs.


If you haven't seen the new Cutie KaToodles yet you must go over to KaDoodle Bug Designs and have a look! They are the cutest little critters!

For my shaped card I am using the Cutie KaToodle - Raccon file. I simply created an Offset of the base to create the shaped card.

I love the eyes on the cuties! I added a bit of Glossy Accents to them to give them some shine!

My sentiment is from Craftin Desert Divas Deer Friends set. 


You will be seeing more of these Cutie KaToodles from me for sure.

Treat Time Tuesday with Craftin Desert Divas

Hi everyone, Today is my turn to post over at the Craftin Desert Divas Blog
with a Treat Time Tuesday project.


Here is what I am sharing!

I love the new stamp set "Happy Thoughts" and knew I wanted to use a sentiment from it on my project today.


I put together this cutie patootie giraffe from My Scrap Chick called Giraffe Booty Box. It so cute and you can put lots of goodies inside depending on how big or small you make it. 


I chose my sentiment from CDD Happy Thoughts stamps set and stamped inside the ticket stamp from the CDD Tag It stamp set. I love that many of the Craftin Desert Divas stamps work so well together!

Have a look at these stamp sets:





Thank you for joining me for Treat Time Tuesday
