Adventure Awaits ~ 30 Day coloring Challenge

June 15, 2018 0 Comments

Hi There! Welcome to my blog!

Today I am excited to share a card I created for the current 30 Day Coloring Challenge at the Daily Marker.


This card is being shared on the Craftin Desert Divas Blog for the 30 Day Coloring Challenge Blog Hop. So be sure to head on over to see the line up and participate in the hop.

Since this is a coloring challenge I colored almost every aspect of this card.


I started with my background and used Craftin Desert Divas Bright Horizons Stencil and Distress Oxide Inks in Squeezed Lemonade, Spiced Marmalade, and Abandoned Coral.

I added mountains from CDD Scenery Dies and and trees from CDD Fall Border Dies. I colored in all of this with Copic Markers.

For my road I colored in the bottom with Copic Markers and added lines with a white gel pen.

I added my image from CDD Away We Go Stamps. I colored everything with Copic Markers. I have all of the colors I used pictured below.


Final details were added with Ranger Glossy Accents on the headlight and rear lights. Clear Wink of Stella was used on the mountains and the mini-van. Lastly, white gel pen was used to add highlights throughout the card.

Here are the Copic markers I used to color in my image.

Catch Some Waves ~Craftin Desert Divas June Sneak Peek

June 12, 2018 0 Comments
Hello and Welcome to my blog!

Today I am sharing a few cards featuring the new Craftin Desert Divas Waves Stamps and Polygon Stencil.

If you love summer and surfing with cute critters the new Waves stamps set is perfect for you!


This first card was created with the fun alligator from the new Waves stamp set. I stamped and colored him with some Zig Clean Color Brush markers and added a few details with my white gel pen.

I had this fun patterned paper that I wanted to used so I die cut it with the CDD Crazy Stitched Frames Dies and created a window with the Inside Scalloped Circle Dies. The background was created with Distress Oxide Inks. I sponged the sky with some Squeezed Lemonade and created the sun's rays with Fossilized Amber. For the waves I used CDD Outdoor Landscape Dies to create a stencil and used Distress Oxide Inks in Salty Ocean and Mermaid Lagoon. I added a few white gel pen accents and a few Nuvo Jewel Drops in Sea Breeze to finish off the scene.

The sentiment comes with this set was stamped and heat embossed. 


For my second card I, again used the new Waves stamps but I paired it with then new Polygon Stencil.

I started by inking a panel with Distress Oxide Inks in Peacock Feathers and Mermaid Lagoon. I added my stencil on top and used Nuvo Moonshine Glimmer Paste to give it this wonderful shine. I love the way it turned out!

Once my panel was dry, I layered and popped up some white cardstock that I die cut with the CDD Crazy Stitched Frames. I cut the cardstock in half and trimmed off some from each side. I added a strip of black cardstock behind that piece and popped all of that up with some foam tape.

I stamped my sentiment from CDD Waves stamps and added this little surfing monkey. He is just too cute! I colored him up with Copic Markers. I added a few sequins and my card was finished!

Please check out all of the new release peeks on Facebook. You can visit the CDD Gallery or the Event page.

All stamps, dies, and stencils will be available for purchase on Friday, June 15, in the CDD Shop.

Wheelie Fun ~ Craftin Desert Divas June Sneak Peek

June 11, 2018 0 Comments
Hello! Welcome to my blog!

Today I am sharing a peek at the new June Release from Craftin Desert Divas.

I am showcasing the new Wheelie Stamps and Tandem Bike Die, as well as the new Wheelie Fun Digital Stamps.


For my first card, I used the new Wheelie stamps and Tandem Bike Die. I colored everything with Copic markers and fussy- cut my images. I created the scene by ink blending some Distress Oxide inks to create the sky and grass. The grass was cut with the Outdoor Landscape 2 Dies. It was mounted onto the sky panel and then both were die cut with CDD Fancy Frames Dies. I mounted this onto a white card base and stamped my sentiment that is found in the Wheelie Stamp set.


For my second card I used the new Wheelie Fun Digital stamps to create a place my my little bunny to sit and enjoy an afternoon of tea. 

I used ink blending for the background and add a sidewalk with a gray Copic marker and die cut it with CDD Crazy Stitched Frames Dies. The table, chair, and tea cup all just a few of the images included int the Wheelie Fun Digital Stamps set.

I stamped and colored both the bunny and kitten from the new Wheelie stamps and added sentiment from and older CDD stamp set called Home Sweet Home.

Be sure to check out all of the sneak peeks by visiting the CDD Gallery or the Release Event Page on Facebook.

All stamps and dies will be released on Friday, June 15 and be in the CDD Shop.
