COCOA APRON POCKET CARD

Hello Divas!!!  Welcome to the Die Cut Diva Blog! This is Chrissy D!!! Every Christmas, I love to make little gifts for family and friends. These wonderful Die Cuts make it SO EASY to  create CUTE gifts!

 I used the WHITE TACKY TAPE to hold this cute Apron together. Have you tried it yet? Terry  has this available for such an AWESOME DEAL!!! Give it a try, You will LOVE IT!!!! You can tear it and it holds like the Red Tacky Tape.


I started by running the APRON POCKET Card and ran the pocket portion through the Big Shot and used the Cuttlebug folder. I then sponged White Craft Ink over the embossed area. I then stamped with the White Craft Ink the 4 in 1 Snowflakes from DRS Designs.  I wrapped some ribbon around the base stamped the cute Cocoa and Marshmallow mug on the called Labels Nine card stock. The sentiment on the inside goes perfectly with the adorable image. It is called the Cocoa and Marshmallow Greeting from DRS Designs.

I threw in some Cocoa and a Candy Candy and WAH-LAH! I have a nice, inexpensive gift that was fun to make!!! What could be better than that??? (Well, besides drinking the cocoa, that is! *wink*)


Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

Let Me Share Some October Projects from our Guest Patti G

Sorry for not posting these sooner, our guest for October, Patti G from Cherish Each Precious Day has finished her visit with us.
Let me share some of her projects- you will love them!

 Isn't this the creepiest idea? That is good, and a fun project to share.

The first is a color-blocked card.  I chose to use the cream base, with an orange grid.  I had a good time testing many of my forgotten stamps, trying to find the right fit for the openings.

Stamps are Inkadinkado and Hero Arts.  Coloring was done using colored pencils and mineral spirits.  The Designer Paper was from an Autumn Mat Stack by DCWV.

 I started with the Apron Die Cut.  Added some great designer paper from The Paper Studio.  Mmmmm....Pumpkin Pie?  Who can resist that?   Added  a Tag Die Cut, a sentiment from Hero Arts, and a bit of green seam binding ribbon from Stampin' Up.


I want to thank Patti G for being our guest and sharing so many wonderful projects. I know she gave me lots of ideas.Hopefully Patti G will come back again to visit.

One last BBQ - Apron

Hi there, Danielle here with my project today! I used the Apron Card which really fit the theme. I made an invitation out of this card for a labor day picnic.

Thank you for looking! Enjoy your holiday :)

Happy Fathers Day

Have I got one of the greatest ideas for a fun gift from Creative Cuts and More for that special man in your life.

I started with an    Apron Pocket A7 Card.

It was cut out with acetate for a clear look.

This is a fun idea I came up with to make a man type gift card holder...I like the look of a leather or fabric apron.

I added Tim Holtz glassine to the backside and then added a few gears. The gears were put on with eyelets to hold.

 

Wanted to show a view with my fingers behind so you could see how clear it really is.

The edging and the tie area were made with stickable canvas.I stamped Happy Fathers Day to decorate.

I am going to put a gift card in the pocket for a Home Improvement store.

So what do you think? Is this a fun idea or what?

It's an Apron! It's a Card! It's a Recipe Apron Card!!

Hi everyone!

Kim here & today I am sharing the FABULOUS Apron Card with you! It's so simple to pull together & the theme possibilities are endless!! I chose to do a GINGERBREAD COOKIE theme for this one...

After I put the card together (super easy with 2 strips of Tacky Tape!), I Glimmer Misted it with a red mist. I added a row of Gingerbread Men stickers along the bottom & some other related embellishments from my Holiday stash. The scalloped lace along the pocket I got from a fellow DT member, Noelle & I think it just makes the apron complete!!

 Inside the apron pocket I placed a real recipe card & made the other two from shipping tags with a few more embellishments from my stash again. The little GINGERBREAD MAN peeking out from behind one of the cards is available here.

Added a little rick-rack to the top of the card for the apron's "neck strap" & now I have the perfect little hostess gift ready for some yummy cookie recipes!!

Terry has a great Holiday Apron Card Kit for sale for only $21.99 on the Creative Cuts & More site & there are a bunch more Holiday dies available too!! You can crank out 10 adorable cards with this kit!!! Think of teacher gifts or neighbors all done in one fell swoop!!

That's it!

Thanks for looking today!

Appetizers & Drinks!

Hello everyone!  It's Noelle posting today!  It's finally fall in the Denver area!  Beautiful leaves every where and the kids are going to get to go Trick-Or-Treat without the snow falling!

Have you tried this Apron Pocket A7 Card yet?  It is one of my FAVORITES!  It's not just a card!  You can make it into an album of your choice or try our Holiday Treats Apron Recipe Kit!  I am making another mini album using the Unity Homemade By stamps.  The ribbon is from my stash.  I am pretty sure the polka dot is from Creative Impressions and the lace is from JoAnn's.  It was super easy to attach using the Killer White Tear-able Tacky Tape!   Honestly, the whole thing took me less than 30 minutes!  You can't really tell but on the stamp I used a gelly roll pen and some glossy accents!  Super fun and easy, that's how I like it!  Thanks for stopping by today!

Apron Thank You Card

Here is a super easy card for those of you who love to give out Starbucks gift cards. The apron die cut has a flap that folds up creating a pocket, just big enough for a gift card and a small note if you like. Double Mates card stock was used here, which comes in a variety of colors. Each color has a dark and light side, great for cards where you see both sides of the card stock at once. This card would also make a great Father's Day gift. Just change up the colors and add a "home improvement store" gift card inside.

Thanks for looking!

Apron Pocket Card

Here's a fun gift for a new homeowner, or someone striking out on their own for the first time. An Apron Pocket A7 Card filled with favorite recipes. Pair it with a cookbook and a real apron and you have a lovely present for a new homeowner, bride or even a neighbor.

Stamps are by Inque Boutique (Recipe set) and the card was dry embossed with a Fiskars texture plate and inked before assembling.
