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...

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!

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.

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...

Hi! Tamara here with you. This year (thanks to Christine's amazing drawings) I started early with my Easter cards. I usually make up to 10 and send them to my friends and family. Easter cards are one of my fav cards to make, because of all the happy colours and cute images used. For this card I coloured two images from the new Spring Things clear stamp set. For colouring I used Distress ink pads.  Images were cut out using matching Spring Things Outline Dies. Sentiment "You crack me up" comes with the images. Grass border die used on this...

I used these things from the new releases: Monkey Clear Stamps and Dies Razzle Dazzle Paper Razzle Dazzle Clear Dots I shipped this little guy into the jungle. However, this is only indicated in the background, so that the monkey remains in the center. He doesn't have to hide! That there is now also paper from C.C.Designs I like very much! What do you say? I colored the monkeys with copics and took...
