Die Cuttin' Divas Tag Challenge

Hello and happy Tuesday!  I hope you all had a great weekend.  It is still warm here but not nearly as bad as it was a couple weeks ago!  

So it's been a really fun time to live in my neck of the woods.  About a half mile from my house they opened a new Michaels last week.  Then on Monday this week, a Hobby Lobby opened across the street from Michaels!  I'm so excited but my husband is getting nervous. He told me it's not a good thing to have both stores within walking distance. I tried to tell him how much easier it will be for him to shop for me now.  I'm not sure he was buying my theory but I am beyond excited.  Before this new Hobby Lobby, I used to have to drive 30-40 minutes to get to one. I did stop by the new Michaels (it was so new and beautiful.  Even the carts were clean!).  I did not go on opening day to Hobby Lobby because I had to work and I figured it would be mobbed on Monday.  I'll stop by after work one night soon.  

Ok, on to this week's Die Cuttin' Divas challenge, which is to make a tag.  Here's the one I made:

 Tag and candle dies: My Creative Time
Paper: from my scraps
Sentiment: My Creative Time
Ink: Stampin' Up
Stars: Recollections
Twine: Recollections

Die Cuttin' Divas Sketch Challenge

Hello and happy Tuesday. I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day weekend.  It was so hot and humid in San Diego for the past 5 days!  So gross when you don't have air conditioning.  It was still nice to have 3 days off but I am looking forward to heading back to work today so I can be in air conditioning all day.

This is a new month (what happened to August???) and that means it's time for our sketch challenge based on this sketch:

Since I hardly ever make masculine cards, I decided to make a masculine birthday card.  This way the next time I need a guy card, I'll already have one instead of having to make one quickly.
Paper: The Paper Studio
Fish Die: A Child's Year Cricut Cartridge
Tag Die: My Creative Time
Circles: Cricut Shapes
Sequins: Close to My Heart
Sentiment: My Creative Time
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
