Love you Divas!!!!

And to continue with the motivation I want to share with you December 2011 P-12 layout....
 

I focused my photos in events during December:  Pre-Xmas parties at work and with friends, Xmas cooking and my fave of all pictures is the picture on the left side of my 2 daughters hugging. As sisters they fight all the time and when we went to drop some presents to my daughter Val house, they hug themselves and told each other "I love you sister".  They made me cry with this awesome Xmas gift.

I know that you may be asking where is P-12 January sketch?  It's on it's way ladies!  am having troubles to upload pictures.  To upload this one I had to go thru picasa.  I will post it soon and give plenty of time to post your entries.

Big hug and blessing,

Admin DT Luisa

Winners for September and October Challenges!!!

Hi Divas,

Luisa here, giving good news!  It's time to call some winners!!!

First, let me apologize for not calling a winner for Pammy Kay's "Black and White" challenge on time.  A lot of things happened and Pammy Kay is taking a leave of absent from her DT position with us.  And I was suposed to call a winner for her, but unfortuntely due to "busy season at work" I was not able to do it on time.  But here we are, honoring our CSDivas word...

And the winner for September Black and White Challenge is..............

........... KAREN LADD, with her adorable Typewriter Card!!!

Second, for my October "Explossion Card" challenge, we had only one person submitting her entry, but since she created a few cards and even did it with her kids, our absolutely winner is............

................. LISA WEST!!!

to both of you Divas and

     

for being part of the CSDivas Mansion and playing with us!!!

World Cardmaking Day!

Hey Divas! I almost missed it and wanted to make sure we all knew - today, Oct. 1st is World Cardmaking Day! Now I'm not a big cardmaker (shame on me right?) but I couldn't let today pass by without posting a Halloween card I made for my blog's "13 Days Of October Madness" event! Here is my first "fancy" card:

In honor of today's "World Cardmaking Day", why don't we extend the day into the weekend and create cards? If you'd like to see how I made my card, you can visit my blog, The Magic of Ordinary Days and come back each day until October 13th to see what each day's creative project is.

What projects are you working on for the season ladies? Fall is so inspiring to me! Hope to catch up with you all soon!

Happy Crafting ~

Stephanie

Challenge Closed

Alrighty...it's 8:03 CST and I'm going to go ahead and close this week's challenge. Thanks for visiting the Divas site this week and I hope you'll check back tomorrow for a new challenge! Hope you're having a great weekend!
Thanks!
~ Stephanie

Anyone Home???

It's been a busy week for most of us Divas! Many of us are back to school or ramping up those fall schedules. Did you miss the challenge this week? It's the Commercial Inspiration challenge - taking our inspiration from print advertisements in magazines or book covers and using them to create our cards or layouts. I also gave you three example ads to get you started or to use one for your project. So far...we have no players! But don't worry - you still have time to play! I will announce a winner by 8:00 (central time) tonight in the hopes that someone will have time to come up with a project.
Happy Crafting ~
Stephanie

Saturday Diva Snaps!!!

This weeks challenge was a photo scavenger hunt. I want to thank the three divas who participated! It was great to see their wonderful photos and how creative they are in what they posted!

Diva snaps go to Janice @ My Stories Told Through Pictures,   Here are a couple of her pics...

Cute flower embellishments

 Love the bed spread, lol!

 Cute card fold!

Thanks again Janice for playing along.  Send me your addy at Cleosan52 at yahoo dot com for your prize before next Saturday!

And don't forget divas, leave any projects links that you do in the week so we can showcase them on Saturday. Hint, hint!!! I'm thinking all our showcased blogs will be in the running for a rak!!!!  So far we have two.

Saturday's Diva Snaps

Okay just learned another new thing from a couple of teens at church...  AWESOME SNAPS!!!!
Whta in the world are those????  Well, when someone does something awesome/neat/special/etc., the girls all start snapping their fingers together and say "Snaps to so-and-so".  How cute is that, lol!  I started doing it to my toddlers and they love it when mommy gives them snaps!

I thought this would be perfect for here.  Our divas do some awesome work and snaps should be given all around along with some recognition. 

This week Nancy @ NickleNook shared with us a cardscape that she did back in April and is just perfect for what I was talking about on Thursday's Card post about Cardscapes.

Don't ya just love it!!!!  This is paper piecing at its best, lol!  Thanks for sharing with us Nancy.  You get some AWESOME SNAPS for the week!!!

Another great post is from Lolis @ My Creative Corner.  She did this awesome scene with the barn and cute cow.  How precious is this...

AWESOME SNAPS for the week Lolis, you are so talented!!!!

Please stop by these two Divas' blogs.  Their work is just beautiful, Nancy with her faithbooking and Lolis with her altered media, layouts, gifts, etc.  I just drool over all their pictures!!!
