And here is my project:

I love using my Cricut backgrounds for my images! Such a cute image, too! I did use a new-to-me product called Amplify, by Neon. You add the liquid where you want it, then hit it with the heat tool to make it puff! Be careful, because you can overheat it and discolor it. It comes in a lot of different colors.  Here is a list of materials I used:

1. Image: Fancy Sunbonnet-Winter birds (Bugaboo stamps), colored with Copics.
2. Die: Snowflake Overlay (Cricut Access, Photo Fun Holiday Memories).
3. Stamp: Carnation 2014 Greenhouse Society  (Technique Tuesday), Versafine Onyx ink.
4. Embellishments: White Neon Amplify, white sequins.
5. Paper: white cardstock (Neenah), green patterned paper (Creative Memories).

Die Cut Diva's Something New Challenge spotlight

Today is my spotlight day at Die Cut Diva's! Our sponsor this month is-

They are giving away a $15 gift certificate, so make something with a new die, new technique, new color, etc. You can't win if you don't enter!

Here is my card-

I was intimidated by this die set when I first got it (many months ago!) and decided to test drive this new die. I love the cut out "closing nubs" that keep the card closed until it's time to look inside! The next card has the "spiral" attachment (see below). The instructions are very clear, and there are tutorials on youtube.com that show you what to do. I'm so glad I tried this die set, and I'll be using it a lot.

Here is a list of materials:

1. Die: Elizabeth Craft Designs Spiral Pull die (flower die is included, along with leaf, heart, balloons, snowflakes), Elizabeth Craft Designs Owl (Poppy)(but you could use this ECD Owl), My Favorite Things Pierced Circles (or use these Memory Box Circle dies).
2. Paper: Neenah white cardstock, unknown flower/teal cardstock.
3. Pearls: Michaels Recollections.
4. Stamp: Unity Stamp Co. (Going to be Owl-right).
5. Washi tape: unknown.

Now for the spiral attachment card-

I also used Elizabeth Crafts Designs Roses, Cricut Artiste sentiment, and the hearts come in the Spiral Card kit (along with balloons, snowflakes, and leaves). The paper was from American Crafts Dear Lizzy collection, the sentiment on the front is Unity Stamp Co. and the inside sentiment was cut with my Cricut Artiste cartridge.

Die Cut Diva's-Something New!

Our Great Sponsor at Die Cut Divas for January is-

 
and here are the details for the January Challenge!

1. Make a project where you either use a new technique, die, stamp, colors...

  2  Explain what the "new" technique, die, stamp, color combo, etc. is in your post.   

  3. You Must use a die cut or file cut made on your machine (or a friend's, not store bought) on your project or card

4. Only Four submissions to our Challenge per challenge month are allowed. 

So here is my project-

Here are the products I used for this card-

1. LeCrystelle Heart tri-fold card (New).
2. Spellbinders Lace Hearts (New die cuts by fellow DT member)(You could also use the Cheery Lynn Two of Hearts set).
3. Tropical Blooms 3D embossing folder by Cuttlebug (New).

6. Heart mini punch (unknown).

I got Cuttlebug embossing folders and Cuttlebug Dies on sale during Christmas break for $1.99 each, plus free shipping! I got 15 different items, so you'll be seeing a lot of NEW looks on my cards. The sentiment collection was part of the Artfully sent CTMH package and I had forgotten I even had it, first time I used it. I did cut off the top of the heart above the banner so I could see the sentiment on the large heart.
