Welcome back guys!  I'm so happy to be part of Craftin Desert Divas July Release blog hop.  For the past few days, we are showcasing our July Sneak Peek Release, I'd like to round up my projects and share my thoughts about them with you....
(Scroll down for the list of the blog hop at the bottom)

Let's get started!

Day 1 : Brighter Days stamp (4x6) and Torn Paper dies.

I love the sentiments and the cheerful images from this Brighter Days stamp.  Great for encouragement cards as well as any occasions cards.  Torn Paper dies is my new favorite dies.  I love the uniqueness of it and I think distressing it with walnut stain or any brown inks will give great vintage look.

Day 2 : Skatin By stamp (4x6) and Swirl stencil 

 

Stencil is a great way to create backgrounds and there are many ways that you can play around with it.  Even tracing it and fill in with whatever medium that you like.  I traced the stencil and watercolored it with watercolor markers.  The fun and active images from this Skatin By stamp are super duper cute and I think it's perfect for everyone.  

Day 3 : Fruity Friends stamp and Llama Party stamp (4x6)

How adorable this cutie from Fruity Friends stamp is :)  Love those characters in fruity costumes and they're just perfect to create any card to cheer someone up or just even to say HELLO!

For Llama Party stamp set, I'm so sorry I didn't have a card to share with you but I'm sure our design team member friends did amazing jobs showcasing it.

Day 4 : YOU stamp (5x7)

I love playing with geometric shapes.  Even though this set has beautiful and large image covered nicely on front panel but not to overlook at the small images that are included in this set to customize your own designs.  And that big bold YOU is Awesome!

Day 5 : Good Times stamp (4x6)

Another awesome set of stamp - Good Times!  I love that you can create any occasions cards as well as to friend(s) who love reading.  Great sentiments and fonts.

So what do you think about this release?  Love them? Would love to know your thoughts.

I hope you enjoy my presentation and continue hopping along with us.

Sparkle Wherever You Go

How are you doing today?  

I am back to share with you my card today using Craftin Desert Divas December Release stamp "Sparkle" stamp.

I wanted to make the happy rainbow clouds for my happy card :) *lol*  and here is how I prepared my card scene.

I stamped the sentiment and the sweetest flying unicorn from Sparkle stamp onto my white card base and cut it out from Crazy Stitched Frames dies.

I used distress oxide inks in peacock feather, seedless preserves, spiced marmalade, twisted citron, wild honey and worn lipstick together with Stitched Scallop die as stencil for puffy clouds.

Here is the closer look

After all the distress oxide inks dried, I heat embossed with the small swirly line stamp from This & That stamp all over the front panel. And my card is done.

I hope you like it and Thank you for stopping by today.

Hugs,

Jan

P.S. I Love You

Today I am sharing with you another card that I made for Craftin Desert Divas P.S. I Love You stamp.

And this is how I prepared my card.

I stamped the adorable mouse and the mail box from P.S. I Love You stamp as well as the carrot house from Sumbunny stamp.  I then cut my main panel with Crazy Stitched Frame dies.  

I colored my card scene with Polychromos color pencils including the background and blended with baby oil.  I also decorated my card a bit with the clouds from Rainbow dies.

Here is the closer look.

I used glossy accent on the carrot house's window as well as the birdie on mail box.  I hope you like it and Thank you for stopping by today.

Hugs,

Jan

Hugs And Kisses Box Card

Hello Everyone.

I am sharing my project today featuring Craftin Desert Divas,  Hugs And Kisses stamp.

Here is what I made for you.

There are so many cute images from this Hugs And Kisses stamp so I decided to create the box card using the Box Card dies and incorporated many amazing CDD dies for this project.

I stamped those adorable cupid trolls onto white card stock and colored them all with copic markers then fussy cut them out.  I used the clouds and rainbow from Rainbow dies to create my backdrop with colored card stocks.  Since they're cupids so they need to be on the clouds so I used Stitched Scallop dies to crated those puffy clouds and accent my front portion with the arrow heart from Heart Of Heart dies.

Here is the top view.

I can't help but went crazy with stickle on those rainbow backdrop and I hope you like it too. 

Thank you for stopping by today.

Hugs,

Jan
