A Flower A Day Side Shaker

Hi and welcome, everyone! I'm over on the Craftin Desert Divas Blog bringing you the daily post. In this post, I'm sharing a fun side shaker card. What is a side shaker? It's a shaker card with one side of the shaker exposed. Don't worry I have a video to walk you through the process.

Hoo's Been Naughty or Nice

Hi and welcome, everyone! Today I'm up on the Craftin Desert Divas Blog bringing you the Daily Post today. First, I want to start by telling you that my inspiration for this card comes from Angry Birds. I guess this is my take on a Christmas-themed Angry Bird. Only one problem, this Lil' guy is way too cute to be angry! He is naughty, though. I love the Owl-idays Stamp Set from Craftin Desert Divas, too much cuteness. 

I say it every time; this card is simple to create. A little die-cutting, stamping and coloring. And I always say let your paper do the work for you especially for backgrounds. I admit once in a blue moon I can create a watercolor background that I'm happy with and I sincerely wish I could knock them out every time but the fact is, I can't! So I rely heavily on patterned paper to do the work for me. 

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:

• Cut red/white patterned paper to 4.125 x 5.375
•  Die-cut blue snowflake patterned paper using Fancy Frame Dies
• Die-cut snow using Stitched Scalloped Dies; ink the edge of one with Tumbled Glass Distress InkUsing the SVG Outlines for Owl-idays, Santa's Helpers and Build A Scene cut the owl, lights, branch, and presents using your electronic cutting machine. Silhouette Cameo

STAMP:

• Using the Mini Misti stamp images and sentiment on X-Press Blend It Cardstock
• Color using COPIC Markers

ASSEMBLE:

• Adhere red & white patterned paper to card base, layer blue snowflake patterned paper, add die-cut elements *see above photo using 3D mounting foam on branch  and snow 
• Add adhesive to owl and presents attach to card
• Finish off with sequins

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!
