Coffee Week

Hello everyone! Just wanted to stop by to share "Coffee Week" in my ReCollections A5 planner. Anybody who knows me well, knows that I am a true coffee fanatic, so I had a lot of fun creating this spread!!


I started off by choosing & coloring a few different digital stamps (which by the way, was a very difficult decision seeing as Craftin Desert Divas has so many cute coffee themed digi's to choose from). I then cut my patterned paper for my daily boxes using the Cream & Sugar paper pad and added some fun washi tape to bring it all together.


To create the days/dates, I used the coffee cup die which is included in the Inside Scalloped Squares Dies. I added the dates on each cup using some small numbered stickers I had in my stash. I coupled that with the stitched heart die from the Mini Shaker Clip Dies and added glittered alphabet stickers for each day of the week.


To fill in my schedule for each day, I used the small coffee bean stamp from the Coffee Break stamp set as my daily bullets. 


And what is a planner spread without some adorable and fun clips to go with it!  Of course I had to use the felt teal and white coffee cup clip from Craftin Desert Divas. I created the coffee cup and heart clip using the same method as the days/dates.

Below are all of the products used to create this spread:

Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils
ReCollections Washi Tape
ReCollections Alphabet & Numerical Stickers
Color Box Chalk Ink - Chestnut Roan
White Gelly Roll Pen











Thank you for stopping by! 
Have a Fabulously Crafty Day!

Whimsical Planner Pages

Hello friends! Happy Saturday! Today I am sharing a planner spread that I created in my ReCollections A5 planner using newly released stamps and dies from Craftin Desert Divas.


If you know anything about me, you know that I absolutely LOVE and am obsessed with anything related to Coffee, Ladybugs, Angels and Fairies.  I saw the Whimsical Wishes stamp set and knew that I MUST have it. It truly is a beautifully designed set along with the Scene Builder dies. There are so many different scenes that can be created using this die set. The possibilities are endless. 


I used the mushroom dies from the set to create my planner clip and added two more to my spread (next page). The dates for my planner were created in Cricut Design Space using the "Lovely Floral" font and cut out using my Cricut Explore on ReCollections Signature E-Special Glitter Cardstock. 


I also used the tree stump die and leaves from the Scene Builder Set (I thought my Jackoine would look cute taking off from it, LOL).  I stamped all of my images using Memento - Tuxedo Black Ink and colored each one using Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers and Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils.

I am very happy with the end results and am already thinking about different ways I can use these sets again. 

Below is a complete list of all the products and supplies I used to created this Whimsical Spread.

You're as Sweet as Candy

Hello crafty friends and Happy Valentine's Day!! 💗 Today I am bringing you a sweet card created with a digital stamp from KaDoodle Bug Designs. Meet Ellie the Elephant.....Isn't she the cutest?!?!

Ellie and her chocolate candies screamed Valentine's Day to me, so I had to get her and color her up for a quick card.  I used my Spectrum Noir Markers and Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils to color her up and bring her to life. I added some accents to her using a White Gelly Roll Pen and finished her off by adding Glossy Accents to her candy.  I think she looks just darling! 

As she was set off to the side to dry, I started on my card base. My card is an A2 sized card and the base was made using 80lb Neenah White Solar cardstock. I cut a piece of ReCollections Gray cardstock 1/8" smaller than my card base and adhered it onto the base using my permanent Scotch Adhesive tape runner. I then cut another mat out of patterned paper from Stampin' Up! Stacked with Love Designer Series Paper Stack, 1/8" smaller than the Gray mat and adhered it using the same adhesive.

Next, I die cut a heart patterned piece of cardstock from the Teresa Collins - Save the Date Designer Series Parper Pad using the Stitched In Circles dies from Craftin Desert Divas and adhered that onto my card mats.  I added my sweet elephant to the center of my die cut using adhesive foam squares so that she would pop just a little bit. 

My sentiment, "You're Sweet as Candy" is from the Sweet Shop Stamp Set from Craftin Desert Divas. I stamped the sentiment onto my card using Versamark Ink and heat embossed it using my heat gun and Stampendous! Stamp-n Stuff Embossing Powder in Detail Silver. I then added some twine from ReCollections to finish it off. 

Below is a complete list of all the materials and supplies I used to create this card:

KaDoodle Bug Designs - DS Heart Chocolate Ellie

Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers - IG1, IG2, PP1, PP3, PP5, GB8, GB10, TN8, EB5

It's A Sweet Week

Hello everyone & Happy Sunday! I am stopping by today to share my weekly planner spread in my Happy Planner.  This surely is a "Sweet Week" as it is the beginning of the Craftin Desert Divas February Release (which you will not want to miss!!!) and also Valentine's Day. What better way to decorate my planner than using the Sweet Shop Stamp Set.


I absolutely adore the stamps in this set. I started off by uploading the Sweet Shop SVG Outline to Design Space and used my Cricut Explore to cut out all the stamp outlines. I then stamped each image and colored them up using Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils. 


I used the Crazy Stitched Frames Dies to cut out and create my "To Do" list. And the small candies from the Sweet Shop stamp set are the perfect size to use as bullets too. 


I used the Plan It Dies to cut out and create some additional decorated weekly boxes and banners for the weekend portion of my spread. I love that these are sized perfectly to fit planners.

The products that I used to create this "Sweet" spread are as follows:

Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils
ReCollections Washi Tape
ReCollections Alphabet Stickers
Memento - Tuxedo Black Ink








Thank you for visiting and have a fabulously crafty day!!!
