Fall Colors with Die Cuttin' Divas

Have the fall colors started to pop out in your area?  We are still waiting around here.  It has been very warm the last few weeks so maybe soon. The Divas are ready for those fall colors and it is our challenge this week - use fall colors.
I found this fun tire swing cut and thought it would look great with some fall colored papers. I really liked the leaves on the backing paper and I really wanted to play with mix and match patterns.
Once I had it all cut out I decided to make the tree pop just a little bit - with all these patterns it needed to stand out more.
It was a fun card to make and it made me get in the mood for fall - apple picking, raking leaves and of course Halloween & Thanksgiving.  I hope you have some fall things to look forward to as well and can join us at Die Cuttin' Divas for this challenge.

Supplies:
- Recollections Night & Fall Paper
- Pop-up Neighborhood Cricut Collection - tire swing tree
- SN@P! Studios sticker

Tic Tac Toe with Die Cuttin' Divas

Happy Tuesday all. I hope your week has started out just right. I also hope you are ready for a new challenge with Die Cuttin' Divas and our fun tic tac toe board.
I went on a diagonal for this one and used - yellow or orange, pattern papers and twine to create a simple card for this challenge.
I had a hard time deciding what  I wanted to make for it so the extra Thinking of You square came in handy. I am not a huge fan of the glitter I put on the dots of the i's but it is still a fun and cute card. Hope you can play along with us this week.

Supplies:
- Recollections Night & Fall paper pad
- Paper Lace Cricut Collection - Thinking of You

Wild About Music

ROAR! HISS! BAA! PEEP! The animals have spoken and they want their own challenge this week, so over at Die Cuttin' Divas we have decided to comply and want to see your projects with a animal on them.  I decided to go WILD!
Wild about Music was the theme for my daughter's 2nd grade concert.  Each student dressed up like an animal and the songs were all animal themed.  I printed out the zoo animals list form Word Collage and that was the starting pint for these 2 pages.
Once I had the base laid out (let's not talk about how long it took me to find the zebra paper I knew I had somewhere!!)  I added the zebra (my daughters choice of outfit for the night!) and some touches of pink. I also created the title using a piece of a cut from Create A Critter 2 and adding in the right words -  love welding things together and layering! This is the cutie (wow 2nd grade seems so long ago)
I hope you can join us in our fun animal challenge with Die Cuttn' Divas. Remember to include a die cut on your project! Have a wonderful week.
