Die Cuttin Divas Challenge 7

A new challenge is up at Die Cuttin Divas. This was a hard one for me which is understandable because the challenge is to use a die cut that doesn’t appeal to you. I admit this cell phone cut turned out pretty cute but it didn’t really appeal to me when I saw it in the Paisley book. However I think this will be a cute card to send away to a card drive perfect for a teen. Can’t wait to see what you come up with this week and hopefully you’ll wind up liking the cut a little more in the end.

Die Cuttin Divas Challenge 6

Challenge #6 is up at Die Cuttin Divas. This week the challenge is to make a baby card and include an animal cut on it. I used up some scraps of an old Colorbok line cutting the letters from A Child’s Year and the bunny from Winter Woodland. I love that the cartridge includes cuts that can be used all year long. So hop on over to Die Cuttin Divas for a little more inspiration and then show us what is sure to be your super cute take on this challenge.

Die Cuttin Divas Challenge 4

Die Cuttin Divas has a fun and simple challenge this week. Simply use a silhouette on your project. I loved how this meant I could use almost any image from any cartridge. I’m in love with the A Child’s Year cartridge. This cartridge is perfect for card makers especially because it has every holiday and also other occasions. I chose this fun cupcake silhouette because I could always use another birthday card. I used Cosmo Cricket Girl Friday papers and a Hero Arts sentiment. I’ll be looking out for what you create for this challenge. I’ve been blown away with the great entires over the past few weeks and enjoy visiting all the blogs to comment.

Die Cuttin Divas Challenge 1

I loved seeing all the entries into the bonus challenge, great job ladies! Well, today the first official challenge at Die Cuttin Divas went live, woohoo! I’m in love with the concept of this blog and so excited to be part of the design team. At Die Cuttin Divas a general challenge is issued, such as a sketch, and then you can use any die cut machine to complete the challenge. I’m sure there are a lot of you like me who love all the possibilities of your die cut machine but don’t use it as much as you want. Well these challenges are perfect for you. So dust off your die cut machine and play along with our sketch challenge (bonus for adding bling or sparkle).

Here’s my card for the challenge. I used my Cricut to cut the crown (Paper Doll Dressup) and oval (George). I used some older DCWV papers, Stickles, Studio 18 bling, a BG stamp, and some Thickers to finish off the sentiment. Can’t wait to see what you all make!
