Simply Holidays Wordart-Happy New Year

Hello everyone! Are you invited to a New Years party? Do you need a quick gift idea? Well this literally took minutes and you could even simplify it even more if you wanted to by not coloring any of the images. I used the CDD Simply Holidays Word Art stamp set and it's matching SVG to make this tag. I used some Spectrum Noir markers as well as some Stickles to accent some of the images. But again, this stamp is beautiful stamped without being colored.

If you are going to a New Years party this would make a great hostess gift. I simply tied the tag to a bottle of wine.

I LOVE this stamp set. This word art is so pretty just by itself. And you can mask off the sentiments and only use one, two or however many you want. So you literally are getting a huge variety of sentiments that you could use as a whole or by themselves.

Have a wonderful day and HAPPY CRAFTING!

Hello everyone!

Happy, Happy Monday to you!!

Can you believe that in only 3 short days it will be 2015??

Is that CRAZY or what! LOL!!

This is Lori with got2bcrafting!

Today I am sharing a fun little tag I created using one of Tara's newest releases "Tag It". The stamps come with an SVG cut file for the tag shape, then you stamp the border on it... LOVE these so much!! For the sentiment, I used one of my "GO-TO" stamp sets "Happy Celebrations".

I LOOOOVE all of the different fonts Tara used on this set. And I know I can find a sentiment for any holiday I am looking for. :)

Here are both of the stamp sets:

Snowman Kisses

Hello everyone! This is Tina from The Scrappin Rabbit blog and I have a fun project to share today! I made treat bags using the Snowman Kisses stamp set.

I am a huge Hersey Kisses lover! When I saw this sentiment they were the first thing that came to mind and I finally had a chance to use it! I stamped and cut the snowman to fit on the top piece and I also used the SVG's that come with the stamps.

Here is a closeup of the sentiment and snowman. I added some sparkle and I was done! This is a very quick way to make a bunch of treat bags and what I like about this set is that it is not just for Christmas, you can use it throughout the winter months!

You can get yours HERE!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the rest of the Holiday Season!

Don't forget about our CDD Guest DT Call!!

Simply Said- Just For You

Hey everyone, Lisa B. here! I hope you are all recovering from the holiday rush.

I was asked to come up with a gift voucher and this is what I came up with.

I used Craftin' Desert Divas Simply Said stamp set on the tag. That set is an awesome addition to any stamp collection. It covers so many bases. The "Just for You" stamp added the finishing touch to my gift voucher.

Below is a close-up of the sentiment I used. I masked part of the sentiment off so I could have it fit on the tag the way I wanted it to.

I hope you all got some awesome crafting goodies for the Holidays. I can't wait to see what you make with them and share it here with us on our Linky Party as well as our page.

Happy Crafting!

Merry Christmas!!

I wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!!

To my CDD DT you ladies are so wonderful. I truly consider myself lucky to call each and everyone of you my friend.

I also wanted to wish my oldest daughter Alivia a very Happy 12th birthday!! (I had to share this picture as Alivia loves pugs) Yes, she is my Christmas baby. The time seems to fly by so fast!! I love her more than she'll ever know.

We celebrated her birthday 2 weeks ago. Alivia and some of her friends went to Xtreme Air and had a wonderful time. Here are a few of the pictures from her party.

I'm going to keep this post short and sweet as my family has been hit with the sick bug this past week. I've been under the weather for a few days now. I'm glad I had most of my shopping done. I did have a few last presents to wrap, but somehow I managed to get everything done.

I'm going to leave you with this:

From my family to yours Happy Holidays!!

Snowman Kisses - Let It Snow

Hello and Happy Monday! This is Tina from The Scrappin Rabbit blog. Are you all ready for Christmas? With just a few days left I'm still scrambling to get the last bit of my hosting preparations done. I made some little snowflake papered gift boxes and wanted to share one with you today.

I stamped the snowman and used a sentiment from the Snowman Kisses stamp set. This snowman is so much fun to color. I really find it relaxing and it was pretty fast and easy to do. I added some stickles to the hat for extra sparkle.

I used the Tag It stamp set for the tag and added a silver snowflake brad. Here is a close up of the snowman and the tag with the sentiment.

Here are the full stamp sets and you can find them

HERE at the Craftin Desert Diva's Shop.

Thank you so much for stopping by! I wish you a Merry Christmas and a joyous holiday season!

Happy Freezin Season

Hi everyone, it's Michelle from Purple Monkey Moments, and I have a super cute set of tags to share with you today. Of course, I used Tara's amazing stamp sets to create my project! Here it is:

Isn't it cute?!? I just LOVED the sentiment and thought the penguin was the perfect choice for it. Here is a pic of all those cute penguins together:

Below is a close up of the sentiment, so you can see how perfect the font is.

I used the "November Freebie" stamp set to for the sentiment, and the "Tag It" set for the tag base. You can buy your own in the Craftin Desert Divas Shop HERE.

You can find all the details of my project on my blog, HERE. A la prochaine...

Snowman Kisses - Snow-one Else Like You

Hi There!
This is Shelly from My Paper Love sharing a sweet card using the Snowman Kisses set. This is my first project using my new explore. I was really excited to cut an SVG, pretty easy and it cuts like a dream!

I used a Too Cute by Jessica file called Snow family... isn't it sweet, look at that snow baby :)

I used some festive paper and stamped two sweet peachy faces. I machine stitched the mats and added plenty of sparkle!

I used the "Snow-one like you" sentiment and my card is complete :)

I hope you all had a chance to see the new release and visit the DT, all the stamps are in the shop now and can be viewed under the NEW RELEASE tab.

Thank you for visiting, have a wonderful day!
