Scrappin' with DeeDee

Sweet Little Bunny Chick

2012-03-19T05:00:00.000-05:00

Happy Monday!

I hope your weekend treated you well! Mine was great, but I could have used more sunshine instead of all the wind we had!

I recently got a new cartridge from Hallmark Scrapbook called 3 Birds on Parade. It's a fun cartridge with the cutest little birds in it. I spotted this little guy with his bunny ears on and had to make an Easter card.

Isn't he adorable? The little cracked egg that I stamped the Kim Hughes sentiment on comes with him.

I popped him up off the background shadow for a little extra interest on the card. I love glitter paper and I think its perfect for Easter.

I used rain dots for his eyes and some cats eye chalk ink for his rosey cheeks. The stamp is from an older set of Kim Hughes stamps before she started her own store. I love her handwriting style.

This little cutie is for sale in my Etsy shop along with a few other Easter items. I was hoping to have my shop all stocked up for Easter this year, but my real job is keeping me rather busy these days!

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Have You Got Your Green On?

2012-03-16T05:00:00.000-05:00

Happy Friday!

Yay, we made it to yet another weekend. I love my weekends and always look forward to reaching them.

So tomorrow you have to make sure you're wearing some green so you won't get pinched! Heehee! Do you celebrate St. Patrick's Day? I decided not to decorate for St. Pat's Day this year and just moved right on to Easter.

I did however decide to create a pretty little shamrock card to send to the kiddos so they know we are thinking of them.

This awesome St. Pat's Day back ground is from The Cutting Cafe'. I used some Kraft card stock to print it on. I just love how it turned out.

The shamrock was cut out using my Cricut Expressions and the Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge. I tied a bit of green wrinkle ribbon on the stem to add a bit more dimension. I love wrinkle ribbon!

The kiddos should have their card by now and hopefully enjoying it. I bet they may have learned a little something in school about St. Patrick's Day. I can remember we did and I also remember if you didn't wear green...the boys would pinch you for sure! :)

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Lucky Me

2012-03-14T05:00:00.000-05:00

Happy Wednesday!

Here we are just half way through our week and on the way to the weekend. We are having wonderful weather here in Texas and its really starting to seem like Spring. I love it! :)

I have just a really simple card to show you today. I made it for my honey to tell him how lucky I am to have him!

I used some older Kim Hughes stamps and my Stampin' Up ink and marker that matches to complete this card. Very simple.

I wrote the "me" in so its a bit darker. At first it bothered me that the "me" stood out, but then I thought, hmmmm, maybe I like it that way! LOL!

The green striped paper was a piece out of my scrap bin that almost fit perfectly. I just had to trim it down a little bit to fit.

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Yacht Party Invites

2012-03-12T05:00:00.000-05:00

Happy Monday!

Did you miss me? Gosh! It's been almost a month since I've posted anything, but here I am now with a fun little project.

I had a special request from my Etsy shop to make some yacht party invites. She saw this card in my shop and wanted to use it but make it more girly. It's a bachelorette party on a yacht. How cool is that? Even cooler...the invites are going all the way to Singapore!

Pin It My very sweet friend Regina over at The Cutting Cafe' created this little sail boat shaped card set and she also helped me with the circle words. Thank you Regina! :)

I used my Nesties to cut out the circles, glued them together then popped them up off the boat with a little foam tape.

I made 10 invites and 10 envelopes as well as lined the inside of the invites with the actual invitation. They should be making there way to Singapore as you are reading this. It was a big order and lots of details, but it sure was fun to see a little fleet of sail boats on my craft table when I was finished!

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Who Knew Jack & Sally made Great Valentines?

2012-02-13T05:00:00.000-06:00

Happy Monday!

I hope your weekend was a good one. Mine was for sure, but it sure was cold and I'm not really one for the cold. I made good use of the fireplace this weekend though!

When I made my very first Jack & Sally Valentine HERE, I never would have thought they would be so popular in my Etsy shop! The lady who bought the very first one liked it so much, she asked me to make another one, then I got to thinking...maybe I should make more. So I did!

This is one of the cards I made. I really love the red, black and white color combo and I thought it really fit Jack and Sally to a T!

I printed the image I found in Google images on the old book page and then cut it out using my Nesties.

I'm loving the rain dots on these too. It's fun to get out an older embellishment and use it on today's cards.

This one was the first to sell and then the next one followed right behind it. I couldn't believe people were looking for these types of cards. My youngest son, who loves Jack and Sally, told me I'd be surprised how many people collect these types of Jack and Sally things. I guess he was right!

This is the second card also in red, black and white. I love these background papers. They are old, I found them in my scrap bin.

This image was also found in Google images. I printed it on the book page and cut it out, glued it to the Kraft card stock and cut it out too. Then I pierced holes all around the border.

They really are starting to grow on me. Since they are so popular, now they've got me trying to figure out what to create next with the images. Maybe I should ask my son!

Join me again tomorrow for a FREEBIE! I've tried my hand at Subway art and I'd like to share.

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

I Mustache You A Question

2012-02-01T05:20:00.000-06:00

Happy Wednesday!

Wow! Can you believe we already have one month of this new year behind us? This year is already moving very fast.

Today's card is really fun with some mustache humor. My sweet friend Regina over at The Cutting Cafe' made up the set I used after I asked her if she'd ever thought about making a mustache set.

I used my Printmaster program to combine Regina's stamp (the mustache) and another digi image (the hearts) I had and then this card was created!

I printed my little design on some Kraft card stock. The whole card reminds me of a chocolate covered cherry! Yum!

I had this ribbon in my stash that I thought matched perfectly so I added it as my final touch.

Very simple card and very fun to make too. THANK YOU Regina for making this set. YOU mean so much to me!

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Recycled Heart Flower

2012-01-30T05:00:00.000-06:00

Happy Monday!

How was your weekend? Lovely I hope! Mine was wonderful, it just didn't last long enough..but they never do now do they? LOL!

Today's card was created using some of my bill envelopes I've collected. I have oodles and gobs of them so I decided to put a few of them to use!

I used a Kim Hughes stamp (the heart shape) and stamped four of them onto one of my envelope designer papers, cut them out and then free handed the stem and leaves and traced around them with a black Zig pen. Then I mounted them onto another designer paper.

I even used a sweet set from The Cutting Cafe' called Hershey Kiss Valentine Bottoms. I just decided to use them as my sentiment instead of on the bottom of kisses.

Have you ever stopped to notice the different designs inside your bill envelopes? Well, then you have lots of designer papers being delivered to your mailbox every day, go find you some!

This little red, black and white number is for sale in my Etsy shop, but hurry, Love Day is drawing near and there isn't much time left for shipping!

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Pink Love

2012-01-27T05:22:00.000-06:00

Happy Friday!

We've made it to another weekend and boy am I ready! I've got some relaxing to do for sure!

As I said before HERE, this is the pink version of the first loopy felt flower tag I showed you. It's so soft and sweet and could even be used for other occasions besdies Valentine's Day.

I even hand stitched around the edges with embroidery thread to add that extra wow power too! I just love that look!

My love tag sentiment is made using my Nesties and a digi stamp from The Cutting Cafe'. I love that font, don't you! Its from the set called Valentine Big Stuff. Its an oldie, but a goodie!

Here's a view of the pink felt loopy flower. I again cut the sections really small for a more full look. The idea is to use really soft felt so you get all the movement you can when assembling it.

This little pink lovely is for sale in my Etsy shop along with several other fun Valentine Day goodies. I will be working on special orders this weekend for some of my Etsy customers. Etsy people are the best!

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Forever Yours

2012-01-23T05:25:00.000-06:00

Happy Monday!

Here we are starting another new week...where is this year going already! WOW! I'm hoping this week is a lot less hectic than my last two weeks were. How about you? Any fun stuff planned for the week?

Today's card was just so much fun because as you can see its got lots of elements going on. I just kept on adding goodies until I ran out of space! LOL!

I used the patterned paper for the sentiment. I just cut out the phrase forever yours and popped it up over the same phrase on the paper.

I even busted out the white pen and gave it some stitch marks all the way around. I haven't done that in forever! Why? IDK?

This little cutie is for sale in my Etsy shop with a few others. Please stop by and check me out!

Loopy Felt Flower Valentine Tag

2012-01-18T05:00:00.000-06:00

Happy Wednesday!

Today's project was a fun one! Have you tried making these little loopy felt flowers yet? They are so fun and easy to make and I think they make an awesome statement on a project!

To make the felt flower, you need felt of your choice, a sewing machine, sharp scissors and hot glue. Cut your felt into strips that measure: 2" x 8", 1 1/2" x 4" and 1" x 3" and then a circle of about 1 1/2".

I cut my felt into smaller sections this time. My very first loopy felt flower had bigger sections, but still cute none the less. Its up to you how you want yours to look.

The smaller the sections, the fuller it looks. I just prefer this look best I think. Just play with it and see how you like it.

I used a little Valentine stamp set I had in my stash for the sentiment. I don't remember where I even got it now...sorry! Such a sweet sentiment.

This little tag is for sale in my Etsy shop along with a pink version which I will probably show you here real soon. I've got one more white loopy felt flower that I made that I've yet to make something with, but I'm sure I will find something soon to use it on.

New Year...Time for Recycling!

2012-01-16T05:00:00.000-06:00

Happy Monday!

Was your weekend wonderful? The sun was shining and the temperatures were warmer here in Texas, so my weekend was wonderful!

For today's card I've done a bit of recycling. You've seen me recycle lots of things like HERE, HERE or HERE, just to highlight a few, but today my card was fun because I added a little bit of a Kleenex box for patterned paper. Can you tell which paper it is? It's the blue floral print. I took the 3 colors of the flower centers and added papers to go with those to complete my card.

I thought it was fun to keep a bit of something that we normally just discard and don't think twice about. I suppose you could say, my Kleenex box forever lives on in this cute little card I created! LOL!

I also made a lace flower that I centered with a vintage button on some pearl dew drops. To make the lace flower I cut out a circle from white card stock and then used hot glue to adhere the lace in a circular motion from the outside edge to the center. The lace flower was then created.

I also added a Kim Hughes stamp to a velum circle tag and a bit of pearl lace along the bottom border and my card was done!
A very simple card to make. Do you ever recycle? Are you like me and when you are shopping, you say, "Oh that would make a pretty paper to use on a card?" LOL! Probably not huh? I really just love to recycle or up-cycle things to incorporate them into my crafts. Waste not Want not is what I always say.

Before you go.....I really MUSTACHE you a question.....do you like my nails? LOL! I couldn't resist that one! I found these little vinyl mustache decals on Groopdealz the other day. I got 40 decals for $1.75! The shop I ordered from is on Etsy HERE. Check her out, she's got lots of fun stuff in her shop!

Mustache Freebie!

2012-01-13T05:17:00.000-06:00

Happy Friday!

Here's the other mustache card I told you about!This time I used a floral mustache I found HERE on Pinterest, it's a freebie! Yay, I love freebies, don't you?

I just printed the mustache out on white card stock and then inked the edges so the white wouldn't be so stark on my cream colored card.

I also added some glittery hearts, because it a Valentine's Day card and they are normally all sprakle-y and fun like that! Heehee! This card is for sale in my Etsy shop if you're interested.

Here's a close up of the 'stache so you can see the pretty floral design. It reminds me of vintage wall paper.

The sentiment I made myself using my Printmaster program, printed it and then cut it out using my heart shaped Nesties.

Lastly, I hand stitched with embroidery floss around the border for a little added fun and to make it more special for the person who might receive it. Like I said above, its in my Etsy shop for sale, but hurry because my Valentine's Day cards have been flying off the shelf!

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Jack & Sally...Wrong Time Of Year?

2012-01-11T05:22:00.001-06:00

Happy Wednesday!

So, what do you think? Is it the wrong time of year for Jack & Sally? In case you don't know who they are, they are from Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas. My youngest son has a slight crush on the story and these two character's, so much so he has them tattooed on his forearms, Jack on the left and Sally on the right. The reason this Valentine even came about is because for Christmas I made him this same print but a larger size on the old book page and then I framed it. He loved it! This is the first one I printed out and I can't stand to waste, so I created this Valentine with it.

I Googled the image and then re-sized it in my Printmaster program. Of course from the story I just told you I had to enlarge it to fit the page I was working with the second time.

I used my Nestie's to cut out first the Kraft card stock scalloped heart and then the actual print with the regular heart.

I also made a paper rose and added some red glass beads and some tear drop shaped rain dots to add a bit of Eeeeek! lol! It's so Jack & Sally though!

Lastly I added the red wrinkle ribbon for hanging and just this past Sunday I placed it in my Etsy shop for sale and yesterday it sold! My son told me it wouldn't last long cuz there are more Jack & Sally fans out there than you know, but I had no idea he's be so right! Maybe I should make more?

More Mustache Humor

2012-01-09T05:00:00.000-06:00

Happy Monday!

I hope your weekend was an awesome one! Mine was, I got lots of crafty stuff done and I even tried a new recipe I found on Pinterest and it was so delicious, you should try it too!

Today's card is more of my mustache humor. I am hooked on mustaches right now. They are every where too! This one is a Valentine and its available in my Etsy shop if you're interested!

I used some K and Co glitter paper for my heart. I cut it out using my heart shaped Nesties then added the 'stache!

My sentiment is from The Cutting Cafe'. The set is called All About Valentine's Day. I just printed it out and then cut it out with my Nesties and then traced around the heart with red marker.

I added a bit of dainty lace trim for a little girly factor, then topped it off with pearl dew drops.

Keep watching, I have one more mustache card coming to show you, but if you can't wait to see it...go take a peek into my Etsy shop.

I Love Snow People!

2012-01-06T05:21:00.000-06:00

Happy Friday!

I know its way past Christmas now, but I couldn't resist showing you one of the cutest little sets over at The Cutting Cafe'! The set is called Frosty and Penguin in Snow Globes. It comes in black and white so you can color the image or in full color like the one I used here. If you haven't visited Regina over at The Cutting Cafe', please do, she always has such FUN sets and for reasonable prices!

Isn't the image just so sweet? All I did was print it out on white card stock and then cut it out with my circle Nesties and of course I free handed the bottom base part. Easy peasy!

Since I had the pink girly theme going on, I decided to add tiny pink crystals to the snowflakes. FUN!

I also made a little pink bow using some of my pink variegated wrinkle ribbon and a vintage button all tied up with baker's twine. I love wrinkle ribbon!

I sent this card to my very special friend who is my biggest fan and cheerleader, Sherri. You should stop by her blog and check out her awesome work, in my opinion, she's the best when it comes to Copic coloring, but I'm not biased or anything! Heehee!

One More New Year's Card

2012-01-02T06:53:00.000-06:00

Happy Monday!

I hope you have been having an awesome holiday and have been able to get lots of rest and relaxation! Did you set yourself a new year's resolution? I haven't yet, but I normally do, so I just have to make myself decide what it is I want to accomplish this year!

Now, on to my card today. I used one of The Cutting Cafe' files to create this little lovely. I don't know why, but black and white always says New Year to me! The set I used is an older set, but so much FUN, it is called Holiday Big Words.

I just printed it out onto Kraft card stock and then used my Nesties to cut it out. I added some rain dots for a little more pizazz.

I took a bit of black velvet ribbon and tied it into a bow shape with some button twine and a vintage button. I love old buttons...always have!

I'm always on the lookout for old buttons anytime I go to an auction or yard sale. I like to try and imagine what piece of clothing they were on and who wore it. It's fun!

Do you send cards out to your friends and family for New Years? If so, this one and a few others are still left in my Etsy shop if you need it. I've also added lots of Valentine cards if you'd like to shop early!

I hope this card shows you how you can use one of Regina's printable stamps to create a lovely card with just a few bits and pieces of stuff you probably already have in your stash! Regina is having a Cyber Monday sale today, you can check it out HERE!

Be sure to check out my post from yesterday for a FREEBIE I created just for fun! Go grab your copy if you'd like to!

A Freebie from The Cutting Cafe'

2011-12-26T05:00:00.000-06:00

Happy Monday!

Did you have a wonderful Christmas? We sure did! We spent Christmas Eve with my sweet Mama and then Christmas Day was spent at home just relaxing and enjoying each other.

Today I'm working with The Cutting Cafe' goodies! Also, you can sign up for a chance to win a free set from The Cutting Cafe'. I'll be giving away an oldie but a goodie, the Gift Card and Money Holder Set.

I recycled on this card. The black and white background paper is the inside of a bill envelope. Isn't it a lovely designer paper? Best of all...it was FREE!

The mustache cut out, I got HERE. It was free too! YAY for free when you are creating! Pinterest is my friend!

I got the saying idea from Pinterest too. THIS little project got my juices flowing! So adorable I must say!

I stamped Merry Christmas on the back flap for a little sweet message before they open the flap and find the good stuff inside! Oh and the little green sprigs of fern are made by using my Martha Stewart punch and then adding some tiny glass beads for berries. Close up in the next picture.

This is another free patterned paper. It's the most popular of my giant collection of bill envelopes. Also, see the ric-rac trim. I made that using a strip of red and a strip of white polka dotted ric-rac and wrapping them together. Uuumm, yeah, Pinterest idea again! Look HERE for my inspiration!

Lastly, just tuck in a few bills and you have an adorable gift that everyone will love! I suppose I should have decorated the back too, but I was in a bit of a last minute time crunch and I did not this time.

Please be sure to leave a comment so you will have a chance to win on Saturday, New Year's Eve when I draw a lucky winner! Good Luck!

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Happy Friday!

Today is Christmas Eve Eve and we only have 2 more days till the big 25 arrives! SO, how fitting is this card? I totally stole this idea from HERE. Mine looks more like the original that this lady got her inspiration from! :) When I saw this card I knew I wanted to make it, it's just gorgeous, clean and simple to do!

I love simple cards and the bold red numbers on this card drew me in. I used my Cricut to cut out my numbers and the snowflake.

The stamp is an old Cornish Heritage Farms stamp that I have in my stash. I think its very pretty and went well with my stolen card! LOL!

Once I got all the bits and pieces cut out and laid out, it took me a minute to assemble it. This could very easily be an assembly line card if you wanted to do up bunches in a short time.

I know its kind of late, but its for sale in my Etsy shop. If you're done with Christmas for the year, I have my Valentine cards started and waiting to be shipped right out, so please go take a peek!

Three Little Green Trees In A Row

Happy Wednesday!

So, we made it to hump day of this week! Are you ready for Christmas in 4 days? I can say that YES, I am ready now. Well, let me take that back, I have one more present to wrap and then I'm ready! LOL!

Today's card is very simple to create! I used some of my Martha Stewart stamps to create this one. Oh and only scraps were used in the making of this card!

Just a bit of solid red card stock, designer paper, a few strips of green ribbon and lots of rhinestones.

Of course I'm not the best stamper in the world, its really crooked, but hey, its a one of a kind huh? LOL!

I used larger rhinestone on top of the tree just to distinguish the star from the ornaments. Tiny details.

I had this card in my Etsy shop, but it didn't stay there very long. I do however lots of other fun and affordable cards in there. I have Valentine's cards for sale already! Please check it out!

Rain Rain Go Away

2011-12-19T05:00:00.000-06:00

Happy Monday!

We had the most awesome weekend, my youngest son and I went shopping on Friday and then we had Christmas at my Daddy's and Step Mom's house with all the family on Saturday! So FUN!

Today's card is done using a really fun set from The Cutting Cafe'. The set is called Rain Rain Go Away. It's very fitting with all the rain we've been getting here in Texas lately! Boy did we need it though!

Pin It I printed out the rubber boots onto yellow card stock as well as the sentiment. I fussy cut the boots out and then used my heart shaped Nesties for the sentiment. I used some clear rhinestones as rain drops. I love lots of bling!

I really like that font Regina used for the sentiment. It seems to go so well with my card today! I used my Copic markers to color in the flowers and then added more rhinestones to finish them off. Lots of sparkle on this card!

This set comes with lots of different images and sentiments. You could make all kinds of cards with this set!

I think I will add this card to my Etsy shop because Valentine's is right around the corner and this would make a perfect Valentine Day card for sure!

Pin It Before I go, I wanted to show you my Grinch nails that I did on Friday night! Aren't they fun? They are basically like my Santa nails, just different colors and no Grinch face. I wasn't even going to attempt that one! LOL!

Thanks for stopping by today. Please come again really soon, but until then...have a lovely day! HUGS! :)

Christmas Fun!

2011-12-16T07:44:00.000-06:00

Happy Friday!

We made it to another weekend, only thing is...it's getting closer and closer to Christmas! Eeek! Are you ready? I'm "almost" ready! lol!

Today I wanted to show you what I've been doing lately. This is a platter form Ikea that a friend at work bought and asked me to doll up for her. I used my Cricut machine and cut out Merry Christmas and some holly leaves in vinyl and then added some vintage red buttons for the berries!

The platter is a beautiful green with darker green flecks in it, it makes a lovely decoration for any holiday vignette! I will say, that you definitely need a very large and sturdy plate holder for something this large. My smaller ones would not hold this for daily use!

I'm going to keep my eyes open for platter bargains throughout the year, cuz I really want one of these for myself! So beautiful!

If you haven't tried making these yet, you really should! It's quite easy once you get the hang of handling the vinyl and getting the placement just right!

One more fun thing I've done lately is to do up some Santa nails! I saw the idea on Pinterest HERE and knew I wanted to try my own, so out to the store to buy all the stuff and tah-dah! I did my very own Santa nails! Whatcha think? Cute huh? I got lots of compliments too.....heehee!

O Christmas Tree Tag

2011-12-14T05:19:00.000-06:00

Happy Wednesday!

I am so glad its mid week! This week is flying by quickly because I've been so busy! That's good...right? Of course that only means Christmas is approaching faster and faster! Oh dear! lol!

This sweet little tag was created almost completely with all scraps. I love when I can clear out my scrap bin some.

I ran the green strips through my snow flake cuttlebug folder to add a little more texture to the already textured card stock.

Then I added some sweet red punched flowers and centered each of them with a clear rhinestone. So sweet!

The background paper acts as my sentiment this time. Don't you love it when that happens? :) I sure do!

Lastly I topped the tree with a vintage button and added some baker's twine for the hanger. This little cutie is for sale in my Etsy shop if you're interested. Please take a look in my shop for other fun Christmas goodies too!

Happy Monday!

I hope your weekend was wonderful for you. I got some shopping done, cleaned and did laundry, baked a little and got some cards made! YAY Me! lol!

Today's card is a fun one to say the least. I even busted out the ole doodling technique on this one! This New Years card was made completely of scraps from my scrap bin!

Pin It The 2012 background and the circle sentiment are from The Cutting Cafe'. The sets are called 2012 Background set and It's New Year Time.

All the words of a New Year celebration right here on a circle. After I printed the sentiment on Kraft card stock, I cut it out with my circle Nesties, then backed it up with a black scalloped circle.

I love when Regina makes the number or word backgrounds and incorporates them into her sets. Its so much like subway art and I luvs me some subway art!

This card is for sale in my Etsy shop if you wanna send someone a fun card for the New Year! Keep watching, I'm still making more New Years cards!
