Craftin Desert Diva's Mini Release Blog Hop Day 2!

Welcome to the CDD Mini Stamp & Die Release Blog Hop.  All stamps are in the CDD Shop and now available for purchase.

You may purchase stamps HERE.

Here's what I've created for you...

 For this card I used the new die set Fancy Frames!  I made an easel spinner card.  I can already tell that I am going to be using this die set a lot!  I also used Calling All Heroes stamp set and SVG's.

 The Pow symbol came from Cricut Design Studio.

 I colored all the images with my copic markers.

Here is the card in action!

 For my 2nd project I used the new stamp set Beyond Measure!

When I seen the scissors the idea of them looking like they're actually cutting the paper came to my mind.  I colored the scissors with copic markers.

Little Cookie Monster

Hello Crafty Friends!!  Stoppin' in to share a card I made using Kadoodle Bug Designs Little Cookie Monster pattern and the sentiment is from Craftin Desert Diva's Short & Sweet Tags stamp set. 

I used my Craftwell ebrush with Spectrum Noir & Copic markers to shade the edges of the little monster and his cookies.  I used chalk ink to distress the edges of the papers.  I used craft foam to pop up the frame the bear is on and the sentiment.  The enamel dots are homemade perler beads. I put Ranger's glossy accents on the chocolate chips.

Hippo Birdie to you card #2

Hello Friends!  Sharing a card with you that I made using the sentiment from Hippo Birdie stamp set from Craftin Desert Diva's shop but I used two SVG's from Kadoodle Bug Designs shop, Eggie Buddies-Hippo and Eggie Buddies-Birthday Bluebird.  I just LOVE the Eggie Buddies Collection!!  EVERY Pattern at KBD is on SALE for $1.00 right now so, go shopping before it is over!!  

I airbrushed the shading my Craftwell ebrush with Bic Mark-It markers and SU! markers.  I have only used it a couple of times but it is fun to play with!  I am going to have to practice more! :)

 I made extra cupcakes so that the Hippo could juggle them!  I just turned his arms out instead of in like the pattern.

 I pop-dotted his muzzle, the bird and the cupcakes.  You can't tell but I used clear Wink of Stella on the bird's hat.

I used Sakura Souffle gel markers for the sprinkles and dots on the cupcakes.

Hippo Birdie to you!

Hello Crafty Friends!!   Today is my day to post at Craftin Desert Diva's Blog this is the card I made using the new stamp set Hippo Birdie!  I just love this little set!  I also used The Sky is the Limit dies and Outdoor Landscape dies.

***Disclaimer***
Before I begin 'my' instructions, I must tell you that I cased this card from Therese from Lost in Paper.  I recently found her through youtube and I am just in love with the designs of her cards.  So, I take no credit in the design of this card.  Thank you Therese for being so talented and creative!

I stamped the images on 1.25"x 1.75" rectangle using Memento ink in tuxedo black and I colored all the images with my copics. I masked the images to get them to either sit behind or in front of each other.  I glued them to the black strip to make it look like a photo strip and I popped dotted them on the card.  For the background I had a cloud template and sponged the clouds with Tim Holtz's distress ink in tumbled glass and for the hills I made a template with the Outdoor Landscape dies and sponged them in TH's mowed lawn distress ink onto the card then cut out one more hill, sponged them and glued on top for dimension.  The clouds are from The Sky is the Limit die set and I sponged around the edges with tumbled glass ink and popped dotted the cloud with the sentiment.  I hand drew the musical notes (as you can probably tell LOL)  I hope you enjoy!
