Bubblegum, Bubblegum. In A Dish...

Hi, everyone! Welcome to the CDD Daily Post being brought to you by The Relativity of Paper. What do you get when you mix Craftin Desert Divas Shake It Up Dies with a childhood rhyme from a game? A fun birthday card. 

 Do you remember Bubblegum, Bubblegum in a dish?
You would stand in a circle, fist out; the counter would tap everyone's fist including their own (this usually required the counter to tap their chest because that was the cool thing to do), the person you ended on picked a number 1 through 20, then the counter started tapping everyone's fist while counting to said number. Whichever fist the counter ended on was out, and you would put your hand behind your back, both fists out meant you lose! Oh, times were so much easier, right?

The inside sentiment reads: 

We hope all your bubble gum wishes come true. Happy Birthday!

Here are the products I used:

CARD BASE:

• 4.25"x 5.5" card base - 8.5" x 11" #110 cardstock scored at 5.5" and cut at 4.25" to create to top fold card bases

LAYERS:

• Die-cut pink patterned paper using largest Fancy Frame Die
• Die-cut yellow patterned paper using Shake It Up Dies
• Die-cut bottom half of bubble gum machine with matching patterned papers and silver cardstock

ASSEMBLE:

October Birthday Card

Hi and welcome, everyone! Lisa from, The Relativity of Paper, sharing a fun October Birthday card with you. I used Sweet Kisses and Fright Night Stamp Sets to create this card for a special October Birthday. 

 By adding a few holiday elements and changing your colors, you can create a birthday card for any holiday or season.  I have to say I pile it on with this card which is so out of my comfort zone. I'm pretty pleased with the outcome and will be trying my hand at it again. Do you like piling it on or keeping it simple?

Here are the products I used:

What A Catastrophe!

Hi and welcome, everyone!I'm up on the Craftin Desert Divas Blog today bringing you the daily Post. The inspiration for this card comes from my niece and her cat, Gracie. I came home Saturday after a long day with them to find some happy mail on my porch. Fur-Ever Friends Stamp Set is one of my new goodies. This stamp set pairs perfectly with the Kitten Smitten and Puppy Love paper. 

I colored the little kitten to look like Gracie, did a little die-cutting with Fancy Frame Dies, Scribbled Circle Dies, and Flag Banner Dies, layered on patterned papers from the Kitten Smitten paper pad. 

Here are the products I used:

 This card is pretty straight forward; die-cutting, stamping, coloring, and assembling.  

CARD BASE:

8.5" X 11" - #110 white cardstock score at 5.5", fold on score, cut at 4.25" to create two tent fold cards. 

LAYERS:

STAMP:

Stamp kitten from Fur-ever Friends stamp set and color, stamp sentiment onto die-cut banner.

ASSEMBLE:

As always, thanks for joining me! 

Celebrate!

Happy Friday, everyone! I'm up on the Craftin Desert Divas blog with the daily post for you.  

Today, I'm sharing a red, white, and blue themed card using the Banner Dies, Flag Banner Dies, and Across The Border Stamp Set.  If you are new to shaker cards starting small is a great way to go.

Here's what I created:

I created the streamers by stamping the "Celebrate" sentiment from Say It Big Stamp Set with Versafine Onyx and stamping red polka dots using Across The Borders Stamp Set with Stampin Up Real Red then die-cutting with Flag Banner Dies.

To create the shaker, I die-cut the oval and star from the Banner Dies, added mounting foam and acetate from the Shaker Bundle #1 kit and Fairy Dust Sequins.

 To create the card base I die-cut white cardstock and kraft cardstock using the Banner Dies and layered.
