Birthday Cake M&M's

Hey there crafty friends!

Today I have quick project using a sentiment from the Happy Celebrations stamp set from Craftin Desert Diva's.

The bag topper is an SVG file from Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons. The owl is a print and cut I got from the Silhouette store and the label that the sentiment is stamped on came from the Silhouette store, too!

Make sure to check back at Craftin Desrt Diva's tomorrow for the start of the sneak peaks for this months release!!!

You are not going to want to miss this one!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Halloween treat!!!

Hey there crafty friends!

I think I'm in full Halloween crafting mode. The next 2 weeks are going to bring some great projects between Craftin Desert Diva's September release, the Boo Crew Halloween Facebook Hop featuring files from Too Cute by Jessica and Kadoodle Bug Designs as well as stamps from CDD!!!

Here is my project for today!

This adorable kitty in a pumpkin is actually a clip art file from the Don't be a Scaredy Cat CA set at Too Cute by Jessica.  This makes it so quick and easy to put together a project in no time at all.  You just trace the image in your silhouette software and use it like a print and cut!!!  Fabulous!!!

This label is from the Lots of Labels files at Too Cute by Jessica!  These are awesome because you have the base and a shadow piece and you can resize them to fit whatever you need!!!  The stamped sentiment is from Craftin Desert Diva's Happy Celebrations!

And here is the most scrumptious part....this holder can fit 2 Reese's Pumpkins!!!!  Yum...These are my absolute Fave!!!!  The candy box is from the Silhouette store.  

Now as I said....lots of exciting things coming this week!!!

Craftin Desert Diva's September Release Sneak's are Sept 24-26 with a hop on the 27 and 28th.

The Boo Crew Halloween Facebook Hop Sept 27 & 28.

Both of these events are going to feature some awesome prizes and giveaways so make sure you join in on the fun!!!!

Boo!!

Hey there crafty friends!!!

Hope you are enjoying the weekend.  Up here in Maine seems like Fall is settling in fast and furious!

We were able to go out for a paddle in our kayaks yesterday...first time in the ocean and we saw 2 dolphins!!!  It was so cool...but it all happened so fast we weren't able to get pictures.  Maybe next time.  

I'm starting off this week with a project for Too Cute by Jessica!  I used the Boo Ghost that was a freebie for RSVP's for the Boo Crew Halloween Facebook Hop which will be happening September 27th and 28th.  Make sure you join in on the fun as there are lots of great prizes!!  We have already received 3 freebie SVG files for RSVP's!!

I used the SVG version of the Boo ghost file...but it also comes in Clip Art and Digital Stamp format.  This is something Jessica will be doing with all her own original creations going forward!!  That is so awesome!!!!

Pouncing Kitty

I'm back again with another adorable file from Too Cute by Jessica.

If you know me at all...then you know my love for doing 3D projects and I just had to make this one into just that!!

Isn't she just the cutest thing!!!  For the box form I just grabbed one of the files I had in my collection from the silhouette store.

Be Brave!

Hey there crafty friends!!!

Can you believe that it is September already?  Where did the summer go?  We are having the most beautiful weather here in Maine, and I've been enjoying every minute of it.

Wanted to share a project with you today.  I used the sentiment Be Brave from Craftin Desert Diva's Be Inspired stamp set.  I thought this was fitting because this summer I have really stepped out of my comfort zone and been brave!!  I've been hiking, biking and kayaking....and for me who is not an "outdoorsy" girl at all this is HUGE!!

This could be used for a little gift bag or treat bag.  I thought it was just too fitting for this sentiment.

The Lion box svg file is from My Scrap Chick and the little label/tag I got in the Silhouette store!.

Here is the stamp set that I used.  It can be purchased here!

There are so many awesome sentiments in this set!

Thanks for stopping by!!!
