Die Cuttin' Divas Sketch Challenge

I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season!!!!

It's kind of hard to believe that it has already come and gone. It seemed that December just flew by.

We are back to business over at Die Cuttin' Divas after a short break for Christmas.
For this weeks challenge we have a sketch for you to try.

For my card I thought in addition to the sketch I would play along over at Paper Players in their first challenge for this year - "Everything Old Is New Again"

                                       

I created the card using two Cricut cartridges - "Sentimentals" and "A Childs Year".  For my recycled or repurposed item I used some antique buttons and vintage lace.

Supplies used: card stock - white, cream, grey, peach; patterned papers from Basic Grey "Fiction" 6X6 paper pad; Cricut Cartridges - "Sentimentals" and "A Childs Year"; antique buttons and vintage lace from my stash; QuicKutz envelope die; Pop Dots

Now pop on over to Die Cuttin' Divas and see all the fabulous inspiration the rest of the design team has come up with.

Hope to see you playing along with us!!!!

Die Cuttin Divas Christmas Carol Inspired Challenge

Christmas is certainly in the air right now. We hear Christmas music everywhere. Jingle Bells, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, etc. But my favorites are the Carols about the true meaning of Christmas, Christ!

So, for this weeks challenge at Die Cuttin' Divas - Christmas Carol Inspired - I chose one of my favorite Carols, "Away In A Manger"

For my project I created a little shadowbox of Jesus in the manger.

The sweet little 3D Jesus is a Snapdragon Snippets file over at Sillhouette Studio. It is design #52508 

The hay is raffia spread on the bottom of the shadowbox.

                                       

I designed the sentiment in Silhouette Design Studio and cut it out of cream colored vinyl. I placed it on the outside of the glass.

Supplies used: shadowbox - Michaels; cardstock - 2 shades of brown, 2 shades of cream, peach, 2 shades of blue; patterned paper - Basecoat Christmas Collection by Kaisercraft, Alpine Frost by SEI; Raffie; Cream Colored Vinyl.

Now pop on over to Die Cuttin' Divas and see all the fabulous inspiration the rest of the design team has come up with.

Hope to see you playing along with us!!!!

Die Cuttin' Divas Color Challenge

Christmas is fast approaching and I am so not ready!!!

For my project I created a Christmas card with a 3D shape that you can put a tea light in.

It will fold flat for mailing.
