Peace on Earth

The challenge at Die Cut Diva's this month is "Silhouettes". A silhouette is the image of a person, animal, object or scene represented as a solid shape of a single color, usually black, with its edges matching the outline of the subject. Our Sponsor this month is-

Cheapo Dies is offering a $15 gift certificate,

 which goes a long way.

Here is my project-

 

My silhouette this time is white, on a background of Distress Oxide inks. For more information on this card, please visit me at Just A Nutter Paper Crafter.

Is it too soon for Halloween?

Not in MY book - I wish we celebrated Halloween all year round! And Cheapo Dies agrees, as they have a fabulous bunch of creepy goodies!

Here is the card I've created for the first half of the month - I'll see you around the 31st with another creation.  Pop over to my blog {Art Without Anxiety} to see how this card was made. Thanks Christi

Arlene obviously liked the silhouette idea and went with it in total  abandon. Even though this is not a Cheapo die, they have some marvelous similar dies which Arlene points out at A Bit of This and That.

Michelle wanted to try impressing her die-

Dawn went a bit fishy -

Sweet Friend gift bag

Dawn T here to share another project for our Anything but a Card....

Today I have a gift bag.

I found this kraft gift bag when I was cleaning out the craft room the other week.  I'd forgotten I had them - not even sure where I got them!  I took some cute paper and die cut a tall scalloped rectangle with a Spellbinders die.   I had the friend die cut (a Winnie and Walter cut with my ScanNCut.) sitting on my desk.  I used a Copic marker to colour it up.  I also coloured the die cut circle.  The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp.    I had fun making this one .

Anything But a Card could be a Bookmark!

Welcome back to Die Cut Diva's!  For the monthly challenge, Anything But a Card, I made a bookmark for The Man.  I struggle with masculine gifts, cards, well, anything, so this was fun to make!  Remember, you could win a voucher to Dies R Us if you win the challenge!

Here is the bookmark I made.  I think the black and white pallet makes the rose panel look a bit less feminine, don't you?

I'd love it if you popped by to my blog, Art Without Anxiety, to see what products I used and how I constructed the bookmark.

Have a wonderful day, my die cutting buddies!

You are Loved

Hello die loving friends!

For this challenge, Anything but a Card {sponsored by Dies R Us} I decided to make a banner for a friend that's been going through a rough time lately. I hope you like it!

I hope you've had time to join in the challenge this month; working out of the box is so much fun!
If you'd like to check out how I made the banner, and see what products I used, please stop by my blog, Art Without Anxiety.

Have a wonderful day!

 This is how it looked like before-

I used Spellbinders Labels Nine to cover up the writing, and a poinsettia (Spellbinders Poinsettia, but these would work as well). Not a lot of work to make a gift box or peppermint holder!
