♥ Craftin Desert Divas August Release Blog Hop Day One ♥

Hi everybody,

I wish you a happy Friday and I'm really glad to see you here again on my blog.♥

Today it's really a special Day, because we're celebrating at Craftin Desert Divas the new August Release with a 2 Day Blog Hop. I'll hope you join us at this fantastic event to see many many amazing inspirations. I’m so excited about the new August Release! Crisp leaves, fall friends and more make this release absolutely darling.  

If you came from Mercedes, you're on the right way. If not, go to the start of our Blog Hop at the Craftin Desert Divas Blog. At the end of this posting you'll find a complete Blog Hop list.

For this Blog Hop I've made two different birthday cards with the new Digital Stamps.

I really love the new Tribal Digital Stamps, because the images are sooooooo cute and you can use them for any occasions.

For my first card I use the Tribal Moose Digital Stamp and the Torn Paper Dies.

 I inked a piece of Bristol Smooth Paper with Distress Oxides Twisted Citron and Distress Oxides Peeled Paint and let it dry. After my background is dry I cut it out with the Torn Paper Dies.  I glue the middle of my background with some Foam Tape on my white card base. For the larger Frame I use the Tonic Craft Tacky Glue and glue it on my card.Then I printed out the Tribal Moose Digital Stamp, color it with my Copics, cut it out with my scissors and glue the image on my card. For the sentiment I use a stamp from the Simply Said Stamp Set. Some Maple Leaves Sequins fits perfect to the image and the green background.

For the second card I made a shaker card with the Tribal Fox Digital Stamp. I started with inking the background with Distress Oxides Fossilized Amber and Distress Oxides Carved Pumpkin. After the background is dry I cut it out with the Fancy Frame Dies. In the middle I cut out my shaker window with the Stitched in Circle Dies and glue the middle circle on my white card base. On the backside of my inked background I glue some acetate and filled my shaker with some Carnie Sequins. After that I glue the inked panel with some Foam Tape in the front of my card base. I printed out the Tribal Fox, cut it out with my scissors and color it with my Copics. Then I glue the little Fox on my card. For the sentiment I use a stamp from the Sweetest Birthday Stamp Set and a banner from the Flag Banner Dies. Some Carnie Sequins on the front made my card perfect.
