Champagne Kisses

Hi, and welcome to the New Year, everyone!I'm over on the Craftin Desert Divas Blog bringing you the CDD Daily today. I'm so excited for 2017 and all the possibilities that it brings to us. Craftin Desert Divas has some amazing things coming your way this year, and you will want to continue to follow along to stay up to date with new releases, monthly challenges, and more. 

Here's a card I made for the New Year, and even though we are two days into it I wanted to share it with you. You could easily use this for a wedding or anniversary card by using the sentiment that comes with the stamp set, "Champagne Wishes." 
I added the "and Midnight Kisses" sentiment by printing it on white cardstock and then die-cutting. 

You can find all the details and a full supply list on my blog; The Relativity of Paper.

Here are the products I used:

CARD BASE:

• 5.5"x 5.5" card base 

LAYERS:

• Using my Silhouette Cameo, I cut out the SVG Outline for Cheers Stamp Set 
• Print "and Midnight Kisses" onto white cardstock or stamp using the Elegant Brush Script Stamps
• Stamp images using acrylic block or stamping tool and black ink
• Stamp dots using Across The Borders Stamps and gold ink
• Die cut gold foil paper and white cardstock using 
• Color with COPICS or another coloring medium
• I added touches of gold ink with a small paint brush to the Owl and champagne glasses
• Finish off by adding gold dots above champagne glasses with Gelly Roll Pen

Happy Birthday! with Craftin Desert Divas

Hi and welcome, everyone! Today I'm sharing a Birthday card I made using the Craftin Desert Divas Party Die Set. 

This die set is one to have in your arsenal, you can do so much with it.

So to create this fun card I used Sugar Shoppe 6 x 6 Paper Pad, Fancy Frame Dies,  Love Matte Assortment Sprinkles, white cardstock, black cardstock, and Party Dies.

I worked with three patterns die-cutting 5 balloons, 3 candles, and 1 present layering them

on white cardstock with 3D Foams.  To finish it off I tucked a few sprinkles around the balloons. 

Easy Peasy!
