I made this mini album from the tutorial I found on YouTube by Ginger "My Sisters Scrappers". I call her the Queen of mini albums LOL! I used kraft cardstock from Joanns and all of the pattern paper came from "Happy Camper" by Echo Park. On the front cover of the album I used Craftin Desert Divas digi files "Camping Girl" and "Whoo Wants To Go Camping"! I used my spectrum noir markers to color the images and popped them up on some foam tape. Then I added some diamond stickels to the stars and cut some grass out using TCBJ file "Border Set 2"!

Here are all the CDD products I used:

Here is what I made..

I created this card base by using the TCBJ file "Lots of Labels" and what I did with the second layer was used a cloud embossing folder on watercolor paper and then did a watercolor wash on top of the clouds with some old Stampin Up reinkers I found in my stash. I used TCBJ files "Borders set 1" and "Borders set 2" on the fence and grass. I water colored the grass as well. I knew I wanted to use the Craftin Desert Diva stamp set "Baked With Love" because I wanted a challenge to use it in a totally different way that first comes to mind like treats and goodies! These two sentiments just stood out to me so I layered them on top of the dog dish that I stamped with the bone. This cute little dog comes from TCBJ "JS Cute Puppies" and my 4yr old suggest she needed a bow so I did just that. I really believe that bow is what finished the card off for me. Thank you for stopping by today I am super excited to be guest designing with CDD!!!

Cardz Tv 3D Challenge "3D Birthday Card" Kawaii Cake!!!

Hello everyone here today to share a card I created for Cardz TV challenge "3D Birthday Card". This card holds so much emotion and happiness for me because I made for my oldest daughter who will be 7 next week. It is so crazy how time flys by. Now on to the card before I get teared up lol..... This card came from the Silhouette store and it is called a step card I believe. I then decided I would add a shaker in the front because who doesn't love a shaker! I added some flowers in the shaker because that is my daughters theme this year. The pink and blue princess paper comes from a Disney stack I got at Hobby Lobby. I then used the file "Kawaii Birthday Cake" from Too Cute by Jessica. Just loving these new birthday files she came out with. I may have went a little sentiment CRAZY but my daughter is really into reading and that is favorite thing to do when I get new stamps (she picks out her favorites)! I used a Spanish sentiment as well because she thinks Spanish is so cool lately! She actually has been trying to roll all her R's (while speaking English). I think she is going to get a kick out of this card and I can't wait to give it to her! I used FOUR Cardz Tv stamp sets with this card "Planner Basics" , "Just Saying" , "Mixed Messages" and "Sentimientos Espanoles"! I tend to do this a lot with my stamps sets because I can't seem to pick just one! I also let left one side blank because I know her younger sister will want to draw her some kind of special picture. Ok now onto a few pictures of my card.......

Cardz Tv Challenge Valentines Treat Bag/Box!!!

Hi everyone!!! Cardz Tv 3D challenges are back and I am so excited to show you what I created for this one! So I could not stop at one so......... My first two little bags I made are from the silhouette store "3D Floral Envelope Bag". I thought these would be super pretty for my oldest daughter's Valentines at school. She loves anything super pretty and girly! Now to try and decided what to make for the boys in her class. So any ideas would be awesome to hear from you??? On these two bags I used the new Cardz TV stamp set "Love Ya" and of course I couldn't resist the bling! These were super simple and fun to create and I can't wait to finish the rest with my daughter. Here are the first two bags......

Now onto my second well third project I created for this challenge as well. This box came from the silhouette as well "3D Tie-Flap Favor Box" . The adorable bear on this is called "Little Lovelies Love Letter Bear" from Too Cute by Jessica. On this box I used Cardz Tv stamp sets "Love Ya" and "Basic Borders". I inked up the heart border and shaped it on the block so it would lay correctly on the curved bag and then after I stamped it I outlined each heart with my white gel pen to make it pop a little more. Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope to see what you create for this challenge over on the Cardz Tv blog!

Too Cute by Jessica Valentine's Day Challenge!!! Turtle Love!!!

Hello everyone! Here today to share a project I created for another Too Cute by Jessica month long challenge! This month the challenge is to create any project that is Valentine's Day related! If you haven't already heard before??? I pretty much have a huge LOVE for turtles and so of course when I seen these I needed them ASAP!  I used the NEW Too Cute by Jessica file "Turtley In Love". Then I used part of a peachy keen stamp to get a mouth on this cutie and chalked up her cheeks to create some blush. The bow is from the girl turtle on this set to make this one a cute little girl as well. Both sentiments come from the Craftin Desert Diva stamp set "Totally Turtle" and I am sure you can guess as soon as I seen this stamp set I knew it was perfect for me! Thank you so much stopping by today! Now on to a picture of what I created............
