Card #1 is a sweet little pup asleep in her bed. I actually saw this sentiment on a bumper sticker and just thought it was the cutest, so I had to add it to this set.  I used the biggest...

Monkeys!

Happy Friday everyone! Today, I'm showcasing a card for C.C. Designs featuring one of my fave sets from the C.C. Designs February Release.....MONKEYS!! I also used awesome paper from both of the new paper pads. The paper pads are 6"x6" and have 16 designs with 2 sheets of each design.   Aren't these monkey adorable? They seriously make me smile! To put this card together, I first put the green Hearts and Dots Paper on my white card base. Then I glued the patterned paper from Razzle Dazzle Paper Pad to some green cardstock, and die cut a circle out...

Spring Things!

Hello!  Larisa here and today, I'm sharing a sweet little encouragement card using the new Spring Things Clear Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies.  This sweet little set has a ton of little images and sentiments perfect for spring! For my card, I decided to keep things simple.  I created a little spring rain scene inside of the new In and Out Rectangle Metal Die.  I love that this little set comes with some rain drops and little flowers...too cute.  I colored up my image with Copics and used the coordinating dies to cut her out.  Then I die cut some...

[Video] Easy Shaker Card and Matching Tag with Laura

Hi everyone! It's Laura here, and today I am back with a super fun shaker card plus a matching tag - and a video tutorial showing how to make them too! The stamp set I used is the adorable Monkeys stamp set, part of the latest C.C. Designs release, which I paired it with papers from the Razzle Dazzle collection. I started by creating the front of my shaker. I picked two designs from the Razzle Dazzle Paper Pad, trimmed one of them to 4.25 by 5.5 " and the other to 2 x 5.5". I glued them together and...

Adventure

Hello, it's Meg here with you today! I love making nearly-monochromatic cards with the cuties in the C.C. Designs shop. The magic behind today's card is in the background. Did you know that you can run the C.C. Designs stencils through your die cutting machine, and end up with a beautiful embossed background?! Cool, huh?! To use this technique, you need to Google how to do this with your particular machine. No matter which machine you have, you will need a rubber embossing pad. I've used lots of products from the shop to create this little scene. The products I've...

Monkey-ing Around

Happy Friday everyone! I hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day celebration. It's Joni here on the blog with a cute little monkey from the newest Monkey release: This fella is just the cutest, isn't he?  I masked off the branch to have him hanging carefree, then added the sentiment on a little board for him to hold. Instead of using the adorable cloud die cut for its original purpose, I used it as a stencil for the background. Easy peasy to do! To finish it off, I paired it with the awesome Hearts and Dots Paper Pad. You can find...
