Die Cuttin' Diva's Guest Designer

Hello my crafty friends!  For my "Cute As A Button!" CTVS challenge CLICK HERE  Today I am a Guest Designer for Die Cuttin' Divas!  I was so excited when Georgiana asked me to be a Guest Diva.  Thanks Georgiana!  This week's challenge is flowers.  The weather here in Utah has been crazy.  I really want it to be springtime.  Tomorrow's high is only supposed to be around 50.  With that said,  I decided to make a double pocket type card with spring in mind.  The patterned paper is by Lori Whitlock from Echo Park.  The flower vase and flowers were cut from the Kate's ABC's cartridge at 3 1/2 inches.  The sentiments are from the Cardz TV Stamps set "Spring Time!"  I used a Cuttlebug folder for the front card.  For the flourishes on the outside on either side of the "My wonderful friend" sentiment, I used an EK Success punch.

Be sure to head over to Die Cuttin' Divas to check out the other fabulous projects by the Design Team.  Thanks so much for stopping by, and I would really love to hear from you.  If you are new to my blog, I hope you become a follower.  Have a great day!

Lots of Hugs,

Think Spring!

Hello my crafty friends!  If you are looking for my "Mix It Up!" CTVS DT Challenge CLICK HERE.  Here around the castle we had snow today!  Luckily it melted off the grass.  Today's weather reminded me to post this because I really wish the weather was more Spring-like.  Anyway, here it is.  I used Creative Cards to cut the card base.  It was cut at 5 1/4 as well as the leaves.  I ran the leaves through the Cuttlebug using the Script folder.  I used a flower from my stash and added some bling in the middle.  For the sentiment, I used the Cardz TV Stamps "Think Spring."  I used the Modern Label punch from Stampin' Up, then cut a mat.  Super easy and super quick.

Thanks for stopping by, and I would really love to hear from you!
