Wanna Hug?

Hello Crafters!
I hope you have been enjoying the holidays.

We have been very blessed to have my mom staying with us during Christmas and she will be staying through the new year as well. 

Today is my day to post over at

 Craftin Desert Divas.

  For the month of December we will be featuring 

one stamp set a day for three days ,

while we are showcasing the stamp set it will also be on sale in the

 CDD shop , 

just for the three days that we are showcasing it ,

 then a new set will be showcased and that will then be on sale . 

The set we are using right now is

 "Wanna Hug?".

Here is what I created with this fun stamp set:

Isn't that little jellyfish just the cutest?

I made the circle background by using the "Stitched In Circle Dies". 

 I created a mask using the negative of the circle die and used distress inks for the water.

The sand was created using the "Outdoor Landscape Dies", then cut again using the same circle die I used for the background.

The sand grains were made using the newly released "Across the Borders" stamp.

I absolutely adore this little mini stamp set.

The images and sentiment are just too darn cute!!

Just Pigcause

Hello Crafters!
Today I am sharing a card I created for my Design Team post over at Craftin Desert Divas.
For the month of December the DT will showcase a different  stamp set every three days, and during this time the stamp set will also be on sale in the CDD shop
The stamp set being showcased from Dec. 4-6 is "Just Pigcause".
I absolutely LOVE the cute little piggy images and sentiments on this set. :)

To  make this card, I adhered the cute piggy to the circles I cut out with the CDD "Stitched In Circle Dies"... the grass mound is from the CDD "Outdoor Landscape Dies".
I then cut the polka dotted background and the circles using my "go-to" die set CDD "Fancy Frames"
I cut the fun banner using the CDD "Party Dies".

And here is the fun sentiment:
