Farmer Girl Watering Plants

Happy Friday Crafters!

I am here to share with you my last card for the May Release at Craftin' Desert Diva's using a few of the new releases including "Farmer Girl Watering Plants" Digital Stamp! I hope you like my creation.

I colored the image with my copic markers as usual. The patterned paper is by Echo Park Paper from their "Spring" collection that was released last year. I distressed the edges with Distress Ink in "Abandoned Coral" Oxide Ink. I distressed the edges of the flower pot from the "Garden Accessories" Die Set and the dirt border in Distress Ink "Vintage Photo". I also added the "Cactus" Die to the "Garden border" Die Set. Lastly I added a sentiment from the "Sending Sunshine" Digital Stamp and added some glitter enamel dots by Doodlebug Design.

Sneak Peek: "Garden Border" and "Garden Accessories"

Hello Crafty Friends! 

I am here to share with you a sneak peek of the upcoming Craftin' Desert Diva's upcoming release! They are releasing a couple super cute die sets called "Garden Border" and "Garden Accessories" which are featured on my cards that I'm showing you today! These dies won't be in the shop until this Friday, May 26th. I hope you like what I've created!

Garden Border 

For this card, I made a shaker card using elements from the new "Garden Border" Die Set, as well as the gnome from "Whimsical Wishes" Clear stamp set, "Flutter By" Digital Stamp and the "Stitched In Circles" Die Set (previously released).

"Garden Accessories"

For this card, I wanted to create a scene using elements from both "Garden Border" and "Garden Accessories" Die Sets. I also used the "Window Pane" Die Set, "Flower Basket Skunk" Digital Stamp and "Beautiful Day" Digital Stamp. 

Thank you for stopping by! I hope that you've been enjoying all the sneak peeks the team has been sharing. Join us again on Release Day for more inspiration! Have a great day/night!

I'm here to share with you my next project for Craftin' Desert Diva's using "Bear on a Limb" and "Delightful Daisy" Digital Stamps, as well as "Outdoor Landscape 2" Dies and "Rainbow" Die! I hope you like what I've done with them!

I colored the images with my copic markers. I don't remember all the combos for this one, so if you're interested just ask and I'll figure it out for you. I die cut some circles using "Stitched-In Circles" Die Set and layered on top of distressed Doodlebug Design papers from their "Happy Camper" line. The clouds are from the new "Rainbow" Die Set and the gate & grass are from "Outdoor Landscape 2" Die Set.

"Served with Fun" Treat Bag

Hello everyone!

It's time for the Craftin' Desert Divas April 2017 New Release Previews! They are releasing 5 new clear stamp sets,  dies and digi stamps and 2 new sequin mixes! For the sneak peek today, I'm using the new "Treat Bag" Die and "Served with Fun" Digital Stamp. The digital stamp is already available for you to purchase, so just click the link above to purchase your's! The entire release will be coming to the shop this Thursday! Anyway, I hope you like what I've created with the new products!

I colored the image with my copic markers as usual. I framed the image with one of the dies from the "Treat Bag" Die Set and added another of the same shape facing another direction. It's hard to see with the lace ribbon, but the sentiment says "Served with Fun" which is included with the digital stamp image. I also added some Nuvo drops (I used Jewel drops, but you can find the crystal drops in the shop which are just as lovely) around the image and sentiment to add some extra dimension to the treat bag. I don't remember the exact copic combos that I used for the image, but if you're interested, just leave a comment and I'll try to figure it out for you =) !

Thank you for stopping by! I hope that you liked my sneak peek project for the new releases. Feel free to leave some comments and check back here on the 21st & 22nd for more sneak peeks! We also have the rest of the DT showing sneak peeks on the Facebook Event Page and if you click "Going" you can find out about digis that are free for 24 hours! How cool is that?!

Lamb With Flowers

Hello Crafty Friends!

I hope that you're all doing well. Can you believe that Easter is this Sunday?! I wanted to share with you my project for Craftin' Desert Divas using the adorable image called "Lamb with Flowers" and super cute paper from Doodlebug Design "Spring Things" 6" x 6" Paper Pad ! I hope that you like what I've created with this cute little lamb!

I colored the image with my copic markers as usual. I don't remember the exact combos for this one since I colored it during the March 30 Day Coloring Challenge. For added dimension, I added a bunch (okay, alot) of Nuvo Jewel Drops in Rose Water and Lilac. I layered it on top of patterned paper by Doodlebug Design from their Spring Things pad, available also in the CDD shop! This project is also inspiration for our current Facebook challenge which is going on all month!

Heart Hedgehog

Hello crafters!

Happy Friday! I hope that you're all doing well. I'm here with my next creation for Craftin' Desert Divas using the adorable "Heart Hedgehog" Digital Stamp! I hope you like what I've done with it =) .

Here's a close-up of the image I colored for my card:

I colored the image with my copic markers as usual. The patterned paper I used is from C.C. Designs "Smoochie" 6" x 6" Paper Pad. The enamel dots are by Simple Stories from their "Enchanted" line.  The die I used to cut around the image is from Craftin' Desert Divas as well called "Stitched In Circles" I've used the color scheme for the Social Media Mood Board Challenge in our Facebook Group, but there's only a few days left for it so you'd better hurry! Here's the mood board which can also be found in the photo album for the challenge.
