It's Tuesday!

Hi Everyone!

Yes, it's Tuesday which is the day I would normally be posting my card for a new Die Cuttin' Divas weekly challenge.

But I have decided to step down from the Diva Design Team. It's been a long run for me, and it's certainly been an honor to have been on a team with such very talented crafters.  Thanks to all the DCD ladies!

I'll still be here and hope to visit all my Blogger friends often, and hopefully post again real soon after a brief break.  

Thanks for all your visits!

Sketch Challenge

It's a sketch challenge at

Die Cuttin' Divas

Here's the sketch:

and here's my card:

I used 2 different patterned papers from the Recollections Bold Basics paper pad on top of a Kraft card.  My Spellbinders dies cut the circles for the center, and the present is from Cricut Doodlecharms cartridge.  MCT banner die for the sentiment.

We hope you'll join in the challenge this week and share your card, layout or project following the sketch shown above.  Please be sure to use a diecut and link your post back to the DCD blog.

Thanks for stopping by!

Ice Cream Time

There's a new challenge at Carri's Double Click Connections.  

It's called DoubleClick Skittles Challenge, 

and the theme is Ice Cream!

I used an 8x8 piece of cardstock from DCWV Sweet Stack, folded it in half, and then used My Creative Time's Stitched 3x4 Journal Die to make a small card.  I cut appropriate sizes for the center mat and shadow and rounded the corners.

The ice cream cone and sentiment are from MCT's Celebrate Good Times stamp and coordinating die set.  I then popped up the cone on some foam squares and added two of Carri's pretty skittles!

So what do you think?

I think I want to have some ice cream!

Anything Goes!

It's Anything Goes this week at

Die Cuttin' Divas!

This card came together rather quickly using some of my MCT dies.  I popped up the heart and the typewriter for "double" dimension.

Patterned cardstock from Making Memories Black & White paper pad

Scraps of red and white cardstock

Foam squares

My Creative Time products:

Typewriter die

Is it Christmas yet?

Yes, for the Die Cuttin' Divas challenge this week,

we're celebrating Christmas in July.

Be sure to check out all the DT inspiration at DCD.

Here's my Christmas card.

And on the inside...

I used a Sizzix die for the light bulbs, covered with lots of red and green stickles, patterned papers from DCWV Christmas matstack, and ribbon on the front. On the inside I used 2 Spellbinders Nestabilities dies, Label 1.
