Die Cuttin' Divas Anything Goes Challenge

Hello and welcome to my blog.  I hope you all had a good weekend.  I spent some time organizing my craft room.  I still have a long way to go but at least I finally started to clean up. It looks like a hurricane went through that room! 

On to our Die Cuttin' Divas challenge. This week it is Anything Goes.  We always get so many cool projects for these challenges. I made these cute little bunnies for some of my friends who attended a crop last weekend. I just love these little EOS holders.  There are many different animal files but I made the bunnies since it was around Easter.

Die Cuttin' Divas Animal Cruelty Awareness Challenge

Hello and welcome to my blog.  I hope you had a good weekend.  It was pretty nice here in San Diego this weekend.  My husband planted some tomato plants so we will be looking forward to having home grown tomatoes in a few months.  We also bought a new grill. Our old one was 10 years old and was starting to fall apart.  This new one is so nice and we see many barbeques in our future.

This week our Die Cuttin' Divas challenge is to make a project with any animal on it.  I decided to make an Easter card for this challenge and used a bunny on my card.

Die Cuttin' Divas 3D Challenge

Die Cuttin' Divas Challenge - Glitter or Foil

Happy Tuesday everyone!  Well, I took down all our Christmas decorations on Sunday.  It always makes me a little sad to see all of my favorite things get put away for another year.  I still can't believe it is all over already.

On a more positive note, I was offered a new job on December 21st and I accepted!  I have not been happy at my job for the past couple of years so I was thrilled when this awesome new opportunity came my way.  I will start my job on January 21st and I'm really excited!

Ok, on to our Die Cuttin' Divas challenge for this week, which is to use glitter or foil on our project.  I still needed a few thank you cards so I made another one of those this week.
