I’m back and this time I’m playing along with Super Sponsor Craftin Desert Divas November Mood Board Monthly Social Media Challenge on Facebook! Here’s the Mood Board for November:
Beautiful right?? And here’s how I was inspired:
I just LOVE these new to go cup digi critters available in the CDD Shop right now! This one is the Fox Coffee Cup Digital Stamp … it was created by Anna, one of the Design Team Members for CDD and he may be my favorite.. and you can check out ALL of the very many coffee, cocoa or tea related products Craftin Desert Divas carries here! There are a lot!
Isn’t he adorable!?!? I printed him on watercolor paper, cut him out and watercolored him with my Zig Clean Color Markers. I built my background with a lot of the cool scenery dies that CDD offers. I started with one of the scalloped rectangles from the Fancy Frame Dies. I cut it out of watercolor paper as well and did the same for all of my layers.
I watercolored each layer before putting them together. I started with my bottom layer and used blue for the sky. Then I cut another rectangle and used the tree line die from the Fall Border Dies to cut my second layer. Then a slightly hilly layer using the Outdoor Landscape Dies, and the grass from the Outdoor Landscape 2 dies. And I was so excited because I ordered the new Scenery Dies from this month’s release on Friday and because of Tara’s lightning speed shipping skills and I live not too far from her, I had the dies in my mailbox the next day! So excited that I got to use it here .. that tree and those leaves… LOVE it!! I popped the tree and the fox cup up to add some depth.
And those cute little clouds from the Scene Builder Dies were perfect to finish it off along with a few sequins. I love that a lot of the CDD dies are stitched!
One more look… that’s me for today! I had a lot of fun building this scene to play along with Super Sponsor Craftin Desert Divas’ monthly challenge for November! I hope you’ll play along too! You do need to join the CDD Gallery on Facebook to play and you can find it here! You will get lots of inspiration in this group from the very talented design team and fans alike! You do need to use CDD products to play along.. not all like I did…lol! But they should be your main focus. And if you don’t own any, there are many awesome digital stamps available in the shop for only $.99 to get you started. Also, once you join the gallery, you’ll be invited to events for the CDD product releases and Tara often gives free digis once a certain number of followers are going to the event. If you don’t use digis, there are so many adorable stamp sets available in the shop as well! There are prizes for the challenge and you could win some free CDD product!
AND this just in! Tara has offered up a free $.99 digi of your choice for 24 hours! So until 6am Pacific time November 23rd, you can go to the CDD shop here, choose a digi that’s $.99, add it to your cart and use the code “coffee” to get it for free… that’s:
