Die Cuttin' Divas Snowman Challenge

Hello everyone!

I pray that everyone back east is surviving the big storm. Out here in Reno we are wishing for rain as we haven't had any winter yet.

Since Tuesday has rolled around again, it's time for a new challenge from Die Cuttin' Divas!

This week our theme is Snowman.

I have been seeing lots of different, darling, lip balm holders on Pinterest. They look like so much fun and I have been wanting to try my hand at one. I was browsing through the Silhouette store and saw this super cute Yeti valentine and I thought it would make a really great lip balm holder if I altered it just a bit. And, after all, a Yeti is also called the abominable snow man, right?

I really just enlarged the cut file and added a circle cut to the two layers of his body for the lip balm to slip through.

Now to decide, who will be my lucky Valentine!!

Supplies used: card stock - vanilla, black, blue pink; Silhouette Studio cut file; EOS Lip Balm.

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 Cheer Up Challenge

I hope everyone enjoyed their three day weekend! If your lucky you got a little crafty time in.

Since Tuesday has rolled around again, it's time for a new challenge from Die Cuttin' Divas!

This week our theme is "Cheer Up".

For my card I used the "Country Life" Cricut cartridge and created the sentiment on my computer.

Supplies used: card stock - white, yellow, red, three shades of green; patterned paper is a scrap from my stash; Cricut Cartridge - "Country Life"; font- our choice.

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 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!!!!
