Love birds

Not your traditional Valentine with hearts I know.  I made this with a freebie from Cheri Wenger  (Don't forget she still has a sale going on).   MyGraphico has been offering some wonderful free images weekly from some very talented artists in the Brag Party Group.  The beautiful bird was the free image this week, it is 1 piece from the Lovey Dovey set.  I combined it with Cheri Wenger's SVG Framing Shapz 1, which I love.  True sign of a great SVG is when you can cut it into this small of a size and it still works, this set really does cut like butter.  The beautiful bubble pearls are from Pizzazz Aplenty.  , the colors were perfect for this card.  The papers are Tim Holtz glassine and Crafty Secrets.  I don't know why I save these beautiful papers, it's like I'm afraid to use them, lol.  Still figuring out my Big Shot Pro, I embossed the glassine and the and the Shapz with it.  I also used some Tim Holtz distress inks on this.  Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

Christmas Shoe Ornaments!

Lindsay is having a 3 day sale November 8-10th, so what a great time to feature her 3D High Heeled Shoes SVG!    I made these fashionable 3D High heeled shoes with Lindsay's Stamp Stuff  Shoes SVG.  My daughter loves shoes so I thought these would make awesome Christmas tree ornaments.  I attached a piece of gold roping and strung them on the pine tree in our back yard to show how they will look.  I cut 6 in gold foil and 6 in red foil then switched out the parts to make them 2 tone.  The set has a right and a left foot, but to make it easy for me I cut them all the same foot.  This set has some wonderful possibilities, I cut mine at 3" each, but a larger shoe would make an awesome centerpiece at a shower, or fill the heel with treats at a kids party.  I bet you could add them to the ribbon and tag on your presents too.  I hope you stop by Lindsay's MyGraphico shop to see whats on sale, follow the links to let the shopping begin!  Thanks for looking  ~Diane

Believe Angel

Here is another stunning Angel from Dezinaworlds.  Christmas Angels.   I used more of Websters Vellum 11 Digital paper, the vintage looks go together so well.  Another fabulous border frame called Fancy Borders is a SVG from Mujka  Chic at MyGraphico.  I had to trim the tops off the fancy Fleur de Lis so you could still see the word Believe.  I did more of the fussy cutting, I cut the wings and added some Diamond Stickles and some foam to lift them up.  Not sure if you can see it, but I also cut all the fur trim including her pocket, sleeve and bottom of the coat and hat to give it more dimension.  It really does not show that much in the pictures though.  I used some of the scraps from the frame to make the fancy envelope liner, that I punched with a Martha Stewart punch.  My girlfriend wants me to make her some Vintage Angels for her Christmas cards this year so this set is perfect for me!   Hope you are getting some of the warmer weather we are getting here in Michigan.  High of 62 today, whoo hoo!  Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

Sweet Baby card and a Big Sale at MyGraphico


I made this card for my son's girlfriend to give to her sister for her baby shower.  It was really easy to make with Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Sweet Baby SVG.    I must say, I felt like I was playing with my Barbies, dressing up this card with the lace, ribbons and pearls, it really was fun to make.  Pearls and roses from Pizzazz Aplenty.  I cut the SVG twice, the card stock was not 2 sided so I just glued them together.  I used my Zyron 1.5 create a sticker to adhere the lace.  This card measures 4.75 x 5.  This set along with everything at MyGraphico is on sale for 40% off  today.  Hurry over so you don't miss the savings.  If you are looking for some great ideas be sure to stop by my DT sisters blogs, the links are in my sidebar.  Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

End of Summer Sale

Love this card, so easy to make, had to share it with you today.  I used the SVG set Fancy Borders by Mujka Chic to cut the gorgeous (deep pink) frame .  I printed the sentiment on to the white card stock and set it behind the frame.  This set along with everything at MyGraphico are all on sale today only for 50% off.  This set is a mere $2.00, can you believe that!  All 6 frames and they cut like butter too.  I used the butterfly from Tattered Angels and Tim Holtz distress ink, a little Stickles and the stick on pearls to make this quick card.  Be sure to stop and shop at MyGraphico today and snag some great bargains from a cool variety of designers like Mujka Chic and Lindsay's Stamp Stuff.
Steampunk SVG sale price $1.50

Proud as a Peacock

This is one of my favorite images from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff, I have wanted to attempt it forever!  I am really happy with how it came out too.  I printed it twice once on the new Mod Summer Papers, which I changed to the color blue and again on white card stock.  I colored the big centers on the white cs in with my 3 different colors of Letraset Pro Markers, then cut them out and pasted them onto the blue print.  I did some shading on the blue print along with a ton of Stickles, I outlined just about everything with Stickles.  The picture truly does not show the sparkle I have going on here.   The gorgeous jewels are from Pizzazz APlenty the StampinUp background paper matched the embossing plate and that lace reminded me of the peacocks fan. Both of these sets are on sale today,  Lindsay's Stamp Stuff and MyGraphico are having a  1 day 40% off sale.  Please check out the bargains, you will kick yourself if you don't!  Thanks for looking, I really appreciate all of your sweet comments, ~Diane.

Sew Sweet

What a fun SVG to work with, this sweet little sewing machine from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff cut like butter.  So did the pretty doily from La.La. Studio, another MyGraphico designer.  I cut the machine in black and in silver, I love all the details she added to this cut.  The buttons are Stampin Up and the twine is from Pizazz A Plenty.  The stitched card stock is from a Sams Club jumbo pack I split with a friend a few years ago.  The vintage lace is from a tag sale and the fabric flower is from my fabric stash.   Be sure to stop by Lindsay's blog along with her other talented designers to see fabulous work they have done.
Well, we are still working on the back splash, ran into a few challenges but we are hopefully getting over them, Mr Perfect needed to be persuaded that it did indeed look good like this, lol.  Thanks for stopping by to have a look.  ~Diane

Feast or famine!






I made these cards with Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Cupcake Carrier SVG set.  Don't miss out on the MyGraphico 1 day sale 7/14/11, 40% off everything, including this sweet set!
  It was a breeze to make these, even with most of my supplies moved out of my craft room.  I could not get to all my papers so I used the same paper for the first 3 cards, used some glimmer mist and color wash to change it up a bit.  I cut out the Lindsays Stamp Stuff Cupcakes Carrier cupcake pieces with my SCAL software easy peasy, and made the lines with my Martha Stewart score board, then used a little Tim Holtz distress ink to color in the cupcake wrappers.  The cherries and flames were sparkled up with some stickles, except the one I used my Atyou Spica pen to glitter up.  The pink glitter was so easy to apply with Scrapbook Adhesives adhesive sheets.
I am really sorry I have not been visiting or creating much, it just feels so chaotic with everything I own scattered around, even my computer.  I am a really organized person so this really messes with my head.   I appreciate all of your comments and well wishes, the remodel is moving along.  I can't wait till it is done and I can go back to the way things were before.  I really appreciate your understanding especially Lindsay, thank you all.
Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

Quick and Easy Christmas card

So this week Lindsay asked us to make a quick and easy card, something you could mass produce or make in 10 minutes.  Of course this 10 minute card only took me 1 1/2 hours to make which compared to my usual 2-3 days is a pretty good in my book lol.  I am sure now that I know how to do it I could make it a lot quicker, not 10 minutes though, it takes me that long to trim and fold my card.  But this was easy once I had my idea all nailed down, the Snow Lady required no coloring, I just pulled it all up in Word and printed it out, you could do it all on 1 page of 8/5 x 11.  So to make this quickie card I used the Snow lady from Winterland, the Uptown Houndstooth  paper was printed in 2 different sizes and the Happy Holidays is from the Vintage Christmas Labels set.  I used a Cuttlebug Snowflakes embossing folder and  Spellbinders Classic Circles Nestabilities.  Be sure to stop by Lindsay's blog The Frugal Crafter she always has some awesome ideas to share and a freebie too.  Speaking of awesome ideas, check out the rest of the design team, they are all so talented and much quicker than me too.  Thanks for looking.  ~Diane
