Lawn Fawn Strawberry

Hi everyone!

The birthday card I am sharing today is made with Lawn Fawn strawberry dies. I adhered them to a Tutti Designs stitched rectangle. The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions.

I also added a few sequins.

I'm entering this at The Paper Players sketch challenge.

Have a great day!

Halloween BOO

The challenge from Anne Marie at The Paper Players is:

I went with fall, embellishments and stitching.

The scary cupcake is a die from Frantic Stampers, and the sentiment from Taylored Expressions. I added some sequins, dots, and washi tape for embellishments and fun!

Lawn Fawn Strawberry Patch

Today the challenge at Dies R Us anything goes with dies from the store is SUMMER!

Nothing says summer like fresh picked strawberries!

I used to take the kids to the strawberry patch every summer. They loved riding the wagon out to the patch, and also petting the animals on the farm. I made lots of strawberry desserts and of course freezer jam.

The dies I used are both from Lawn Fawn and I had a great time making a ton of berries for my die cut stash.

Here's the links to the dies from the store:

Dies R Us Summer card challenge

The challenge at Dies R Us anything goes with dies from the store is SUMMER!

To me summer is FLOWERS!

So I cut out a trio of one of my faves...the daisy from Lawn Fawn. I also used the rectangles from Tutti Designs.

As many of you know, we just moved to another state and are just getting settled in. I finally have my craft room unpacked and are somewhat up and running. Still lots to do!

I hope to be back to my regular blogging and commenting soon. I have taken a couple months off visiting blogs as I am so overwelmed with the move. But we are getting there!

Here's a list of dies I used from the store:

Dies r Us Anniversary

Hi everyone!

This weeks challenge at Dies R Us is "anything goes" with dies from the store.

I needed an anniversary card, so I grabbed the pretty heart from Elizabeth Crafts. I cut it out in red, then adhered it in the middle of the Cottage Gate Frame from Memorybox. I stamped a sentiment from Frantic Stamper, cut it out and adhered it in the middle.

Such pretty dies!

Here's a list of dies I used from the store:

We are partnering with the Double Trouble Challenge Blog again this year and having a joint challenge collaboration. It's fun and easy and you have a chance to win prizes both here on the DRU Challenge as well as the Double Trouble Challenge #108! The Double Trouble Challenge runs from April 18 - May 1 and their theme is "Frame It" - use a basic metal die in your project.

Here are the options to include if you want to join the Double Trouble challenge. You can enter the Double Trouble "Frame It" challenge #108 here.

Thing 1: Trouble Maker (Double Trouble Challenge)

says, "How many of us have a Cricut or similar machine that sits idle? Since the world of metal dies has emerged how often do you pull out your Cricut to cut a basic shape? It seems most of us have accumulated some dies and now use a die cutter (Cuttlebug, Big Shot, Gemini). I'm challenging you to select a basic-shaped metal die from your stash and use it on your project, e.g. frame, square, rectangle, triangle for your image and/or sentiment... you get the idea.

You can stop here...

play along with Twisted Sister's optional twist below to earn another chance in the Double Trouble random draw.

Thing 3: Twisted Sister (Double Trouble Challenge)

says, "It isn't difficult for me to pick out a shaped metal die for a frame and/or sentiment but I have accumulated so many other pretty metal dies.

"Mother's Day is around the corner... this is a good time to honor your Mom or someone special who has had an impact on your life. My optional twist is to include flower(s) and/or butterfly(s) on your project. I'm going to use some of my pretty dies, however, if you don't have floral or butterfly dies, just use patterned paper, stenciling, or embossing.

Optional Twist: If you have included flowers and/or butterflies on your project you will earn another chance in the Double Trouble Random Draw.

Thing 2: Double Dare (DRU Challenge)

says, "If you have included at least one metal die on your project you are eligible to enter at Dies R Us #191 HERE. There is a limit of three entries and make sure you post your entry on or before April 28th and you will be eligible for an extra Double Trouble random draw chance. The theme is Flowers/Spring.

AND...

If you have used any brand of dies that Dies R Us sells in their store, you will be eligible for an extra Double Trouble random draw chance as well as a chance to win the DRU $10 gift code prize. Your die may already qualify. Click HERE to view the dies on their left-hand sidebar. Be sure to mention in your post if you used a die that is sold at DRU's store for a chance the DRU random draw.

SO basically the options for winning prizes are:

Thing 1: Use a basic shaped metal frame die to enter the Double Trouble challenge.

Thing 2: Use a metal die that DRU sells and include the theme Spring/Flowers to enter the DRU challenge and the random draw from Double Trouble.

Thing 3: Use a metal frame die and add a flower or butterfly to project for another entry to the Double Trouble challenge.

If you used a metal die to join our DRU Challenge and it's a basic frame shape, you have already completed all the requirements for both challenges. If you've only used a die (but not a basic shape), you are still eligible for our DRU Challenge, but it won't qualify for the Double Trouble Challenge.

(remember, you MUST use at least one metal die to qualify for the DRU prize... and please tell us the die company you have used in your project.)

April Dies R Us blooms

It's time for another challenge at Dies R Us:
