HB2U "Handyman" birthday card - PPPR dt

Happy Monday!!  Today is my turn to post on the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' BLOG and I have a card to share with you that I made for my hubby's birthday.  My hubby is a "Mr. Fix It" so I used some of the tools from the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' "Tool Time Cutting Files".

I made a 5 x 7 card so I was able to make my tools rather large.  I did a print and cut with the tools and created an offset to get the white border around them.  My background paper is from the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' "Man, Oh Man Pattern Paper Pack 1" digital paper.  It looks so realistic, doesn't it?? and I don't even have a fancy printer :-)

 I decided to use some products from my stash (the Scrabble tile stickers) to create the sentiment on my card, added in a few silver brads and the card was done!!  Thanks for stopping by today!!

3x3 Notecards - CDD dt

Hi there, today is my turn to share on the Craftin Desert Divas BLOG.   Today I wanted to share with you some 3x3 mini notecards I made.

I used one of the stamp sets along with it's coordinating die set form the May stamp release - "The Sky is the Limit" to create my cards.  I colored in the suns with my Spectrum Noir markers and then cut them out with the stitched sun die.  I masked off a portion of my sentiment as I only wanted the first half of the phrase on my cards.  I glued on a few sequins from my stash and Voila!! quick and easy notecards to throw in with a gift or even in a lunchbox :-)  

Purchase the stamps HERE and the coordinating die set HERE.

Thanks for stopping by today!!  Don't forget about our current linky party - "Summer" theme - my project goes perfectly with that don't ya think??

CDD "Summer" linky party

Time for a new linky party over at Craftin Desert Divas. 

This time the theme is "Summer"

One lucky winner will get a stamp set from Craftin Desert Divas.

One lucky winner will get a $25.00 gift certificate for regular priced files from Too Cute by Jessica.

Here is my project for the linky party -

For my "summer"themed project I decided to create these cute sand pail shaped boxes and use them for end of the school year teacher thank yous.  Our school year ends mid June so I thought these would be a perfect way for my youngest daughter to take some treats to her teachers.  I have had this silhouette file for awhile now and was looking for an opportunity to use it.

Since these are thank you gifts for teachers I chose to use a sentiment from the CDD "Hey Pumpkin" stamp set.  The sand pail is a file from the silhouette online store - id#62453  I also used the CDD "Banner" die set to cut out stars from kraft cardstock and stuck them on the shovels to look like starfish.

All of my ribbon is from 3 Girl JAM.  I created my sand by tearing cardstock and then adding some diamond stickles to the top edge.  I inked the sand and the stars with  Tim Holtz vintage photo distress ink.

You can purchase this stamp set and the die set in the Craftin Desert Divas Shop.

 

Thanks for stopping by today!!

You're Berry Sweet - PPPR dt

Happy Monday!!  Today is my turn to post on the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' blog and I have a "sweet" card to share with you.  I created this card as a thank you card for a sweet lady that gave my daughter/myself a basket full of gluten free goodies.  We have just recently discovered my daughter is sensitive to gluten.  Anyway in the basket were the most delicious gluten free blueberry muffins - thus the "meaning behind the card" :-)

I used the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' "Breakfast Sweets" cutting files set for the blueberry muffin.  I used some bright blue sequins for my blueberries and added a few flowers from my stash and the perfect sentiment from Cardz TV Stamps to go with.

Don't you just love blueberry muffins?!  and how could one ever resist a smiling one?!

Thanks for stopping by today!!  Feel free to visit my BLOG for more details on my card.

CDD "Graduation" linky party

Time for a new linky party over at Craftin Desert Divas. 

This time the theme is "Graduation"

One lucky winner will get a stamp set from Craftin Desert Divas.

One lucky winner will get a $25.00 gift certificate for regular priced files from Too Cute by Jessica.

Here is my project for the linky party -

Here is what the card looks like when opened up -

I used the stamp "congrats" from the CDD "Say It Big" stamp set and stamped it above the 2015.  I have a daughter graduating from high school this year and between her and several of her friends I have a LOT of graduation cards to make so this is just the beginning for me :-)  I love that this card had a pocket on the inside for cash or a gift card.  I found the file for this card in the Silhouette Store - id# 41562

You can purchase this stamp set HERE.

Thanks for stopping by today!!
Don't forget to link up your "Graduation" project.  You can link up HERE.
