My papers are all from  Bo Bunny Farmer's Market Ephemera package, I love these packs as they include paper, cardstock, stickers and ephemera and it is quite easy to put a few cards together with the collection and then add a stamp or two to complete the deal. With this one I made an a2 card, cut my panels, and added the Hello Fall dimensional sticker. I used Spellbinders dies to cut my panels and my little guy with the wagon is from Sunny Studio's Fall Kiddo's stamp set, which I colored using Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend Markers.

Please join us over at the Die Cuttin' Diva's blog and play along with our sketch this week.

You Color My World with DCD

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with my final post for September with the Die Cut Diva's (The Diva's That Cut).

preview-10

I had so much fun with this project, which is finishing out the month of Free Fun Time. Obviously something I enjoy doing in my free time is crafting, so this seemed to be just the right way to finish out the month. This little Pure Innocence girl from MFT was just re-released a couple months ago and I knew I had to have her. And didn't she pair up perfectly with this Simple Stories paper. I used some of my Artist Loft markers to match up with the colors on the paper for her paint palate.

You Warm My Heart... An A2Z post

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with my post for the Coffee Lovers Super Sponsor Blog Hop representing A2Z Scrapbooking.

The little critters in the Woodlands Tea stamp set just really got to me, and I had to use them again for this post. They are just too cute not to use. For my card I used coffee themed cardstock from my stash and made a pocket to hold a gift card.

I used my Tri-Blend markers to color my images, and then using foam tape and ScraPerfect Best Glue Ever, I attached all images to my card. I tucked a gift in the holder pocket and my project was complete.

Woodland Critter Tea Party with A2Z

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with my inspiration post for A2Z. For this post I used these adorable critters from the Hero Arts Woodland Tea Party set to create my card.

picsart_09-17-09.25.17

My paper is from BoBunny, and I stamped my images using Hero Arts Intense Black Ink, colored my images with Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend Markers, and adhered all together using ScraPerfect Best Glue Ever and some Foam Tape under the tree base. This little crew is now ready for their Tea Time, and since that is my favorite time of day, I think I am ready for some as well.

Make A Tag, with Die Cuttin' Divas

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. This week over at the Die Cuttin' Divas, the challenge is to make tags. So I decided to get out my Lawn Fawn "Say What" gift tags that I had never used. I also used the "Say What? Christmas" stamp set, and the "Oh Gnome" stamp set. the papers are from Pink & Main (Unicorn) and The Paper Studio (the other 3).

picsart_09-23-01.13.46

First thing I did was cut my tags using my Vagabond 2. I did a back panel and the pattern paper using the solid die, then the frame using the frame die, I also cut 3 speech bubbles using the included speech bubble die. My little critters and the gnome were cut using my Scan N Cut.

I colored all my images using Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend Markers and stamped sentiments using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I adhered all my images and panels together using ScraPerfects Best Glue Ever, and cleaned my stamps using ScraPerfects Best Cleaner Ever and the Perfect Cleaning Cloth.

I really love the way these tags turned out and will be making more to use for the upcoming Christmas season. Perhaps using other critters in my collection to match my grandbabies preferences.

So please come on over to the Die Cuttin' Diva's blog and upload your tags for this fun weekly challenge.

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with 3 more projects I made using stamp and die sets from My Makers Movement.

Buildable Buddies Stamp and Die Set...

MOS206 - Buildable Buddies - Winter Stamp Set Package ImageMOD272 - Buildable Buddies - Winter Die Set Package Image

These sets are great in that you can combine the pieces to make different buddies to use in your crafts. I made three such buddies for this post... a penguin, doe and snowman.

preview-5

I had so much fun creating these 3 little critters with the "Buildable Buddies" Winter stamp/die sets. The sentiment for all 3 cards is from the "Beary Christmas" stamp set. The tag and banner shapes are from the MFT Tag Builder Blueprints 7 set. I used ScraPerfect BGE to adhere all my images together, the tags are popped with Fun Foam.

preview-6

For this cute little penguin using the dies that accompany these images I cut them all out with my die cutting machine and set about coloring my images using Prismacolor Colored Pencils, The tag is cut from Pink & Main Galaxy paperstock, and mounted on cardstock from the Recollections brand Northern Lights paper pad. My card base is Night of Navy cardstock. preview-7

For this little doe I used alcohol markers to color my little girl. The paper is from Echo Park's "Warm & Cozy" paper pad.

Anything Goes with Die Cuttin' Diva's

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with a project I made for Die Cuttin' Diva's weekly challenge using some dies from Spellbinders.

picsart_08-26-10.00.44

I had a friend that was selling mystery destash boxes, so I said why not, bought one and both dies for this project was in the box, and for some reason the night it came a Red Hat Society inspired project hit me.

The dies are from Spellbinders, the sentiment is from Stampabilities and stamped with VersaFine Tuxedo Black ink. The little flowers on the hat are from Kat Scrappiness.

Please come play along with the Die Cuttin' Diva's this week with your Anything Goes project.
