We go together like ... milk and cookies

Hello Crafters!
Today is my day to post over at Craftin Desert Divas.
It's Throwback Thursday, so I had to use one of my older CDD stamp sets for my project.

 I went back quite a ways and used the super cute "Perfect Pair" stamp set. 
Here is what I created:


I stamped the "milk and cookies" sentiment on a label created using the CDD "Tag It" stamp set as well:

And here is a look at both of the awesome stamp sets I used:

Since I am also on the Marjorie Ann Designs DT, I used one of her adorable cut files

for those sweet little mice!!
The file is called "Cookies and Milk Mice"
Cookies & Milk Mice Cutting Files-Includes Clipart

Aren't they just the cutest??
You can get this set here.

And that is all I have for you today!!
I hope you liked my card.  :)

A little something...

Hello! Happy Monday to you!

I had a chance to get into my craft room a little bit this weekend and was playing around with some of my Craftin Desert Divas stamp sets.
I saw this cute little milk carton treat holder from the Silhouette Store and thought it would work well the CDD "Short and Sweet Tags" set:


Here is the entire set of "Short and Sweet Tags", 
which can be purchased here.

The paper I used is from the Core'dinations Patterned Cardstock "Brights".  (LOVE how thick this cardstock is!)
The flower is from CTMH.. I've had them for years!
And the rhinestones are from Stampin Up... been in my stash for years too!!
It makes me happy when I use stuff that has been around forever!  :)

And that does it for today!

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

I have to admit, I was pretty nervous about this Linky Party!  You see, I have never made a shaker card or project of any kind  before. It has been on my crafting "to-do" list for a long time, so this was just the push I needed.  :)
And here is my FIRST EVER shaker card:
The base was created using Tara's  NEW "Banner Dies".  

You will see more great projects using these awesome dies this week during the Craftin Desert Divas April Stamp Release.

And here is a closer look at the sentiment from "Celebration Wordart" and the adorable NEW sequins Tara has available at the Craftin Desert Divas Shop:

Ears to a hoppy day!!

Hello everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful Easter.
I had wanted to post this card yesterday, but with my girls on Spring Break last week, I just ran out of time to get it done! :(
I used a cut file from Marjorie Ann Designs titled "Easter in the Jungle".
The fun background papers were all die cut using the NEW Craftin Desert Divas "Banner Dies"
and the super cute sentiment is from the NEW March Release stamp set "Hunny Bunny", also from Craftin Desert Divas.

Well that does it for today.
I hope you liked my card! :)
