Die Cuttin' Divas Anything Goes Challenge

Aloha crafters and happy Tuesday! I just got back from a vacation to Maui and it was so beautiful.  The weather was hot and humid with little or no breeze but we had a great time swimming and snorkeling at the gorgeous beaches.  We also ate lots of great food while we were there and just relaxed.  

OK, on to this week's Die Cuttin' Divas challenge, which is Anything Goes!  These challenges are always so much fun.  We recently had a memorial at work for a co-worker who passed away very suddenly.  I was in charge of organizing the food and table rentals, etc.  I enlisted the help of three of my co-workers for this task and those girls were a huge help to me.  They all went above and beyond what was asked of them.  I decided to make them each a little thank you gift from me to let them know how much I appreciate all their help.  I could not have done it without them and they helped make the memorial so special. I made them some chocolate holders and got each of them a Starbucks gift card.  They were surprised and really loved the gifts.
  I used my scraps to make these gifts. 
Ribbon: Stampin' Up
Gift card holder die: My Creative Time (my all time favorite)
Coffee cup die: Stampin' Up
Sentiments: Close to My Heat, My Creative Time
and Stampin' Up
Ink: Close to My Heart

Die Cuttin' Divas Fabulous Fall Challenge

Hello and happy Tuesday!  I am on vacation this week but I made sure to do my post before I left.  I hope all of you are having a good week.

This week's Die Cuttin' Divas challenge is Fabulous Fall.  Fall is always my favorite time of the year.  I loved it when I lived on the East Coast because seeing the leaves change colors every year was so pretty.  Now, living in San Diego, it can actually be pretty warm.  We get Santa Ana winds and the temperatures go up while the humidity goes down.  It's a bit scary because this is the time of year we get wildfires, which are awful.  So far this year we have been very lucky.

On to my project for this challenge:


Truck Die: Spellbinders
Stamp: Cardz TV Stamps
Paper: Echo Park
Silver Metallic Paper: DCWV
