A bundle of joy - CDD

Hello, Happy Monday!!

Today is my design team post for Craft It Up & Link It Up Linky Party hosted by Tara of Craftin Desert Divas! Every other Monday will mark the beginning of a new semi-weekly linky party and you could win fabulous prizes!!

This linky party theme is Shaped Cards.
 The sponsors are: Too Cute By Jessica ($20), Lovebug Creations ($5), and Robins Nest.
The more you link up, the better chance you have to win.  Visit Craftin Desert Divas for all the rules and to play along.

Here is the project I created for the Linky Party:

I stamped the frog with an OLD Stampin Up stamp set I have had for ages. (It was great using something I've had forever that never gets any attention anymore! LOL!)

I found this cute card shape at the Silhouette online store.  The designer paper is from Stampin Up, also from a LONG time ago! I was proud of myself using so much old stash!!  I inked the edges and added some buttons for a a little extra detail.
This card was made for a friend to give to a coworker who is having a little boy.  :)
I hope she likes it!!

We would love to see your shaped card creations, so please link up with us at Craftin Desert Divas.

Thanks for stopping by today! As always, I love and appreciate your comments. :)

Hello, Happy Monday!!

Today is my design team post for Craft It Up & Link It Up Linky Party hosted by Tara of Craftin Desert Divas! Every other Monday will mark the beginning of a new semi-weekly linky party and you could win fabulous prizes!!

This linky party theme is Winter.

Here is the project I created for the Linky Party:

I added some Liquid Applique to the trim of her coat and skates for some added texture:

This little cute skater is from an old retired Kadoodle Bug Design file titled Snow Beauty. I added a snowball for her to sit on because I always thought it kind of looked like she was sitting anyways! LOL!
I, of course, had to add a Peachy Keen face, and this one is from the Princess Asst Face set.
The papers are from a My Minds Eye 6x6 Paper Pad Be Merry.
I used an embossing folder I got from Stampin Up a long time ago... don't know if they have it anymore. And the felt snowflake is from SU as well. :)
The tag and sentiment are from My Creative Time Teeny Tag Greetings.
I added a little twine, inking and white gel pen for accents, and there you have it!!
I thought it turned out pretty darn cute!!

I hope you will be able to link up with us at Craftin Desert Divas.
