Today we are showcasing the School Zone stamp set.

All of the new stamps are 4x6 and Made in the USA. Stamps will be available to order on Friday.

We hope you will stop by the Craftin Desert Divas Shop and the Craftin Desert Divas Gallery Facebook group. We would love for you to join us and share your creations with us using Craftin Desert Diva's stamps. In this group we show previews first, have giveaways and much more!!

Here's my project I created:


I created a book mark for a bookworm :) The background was created with a Tim Holtz stencil. Versamark was tapped over the stencil and then white embossing powder was heat embossed. TH Distress Inks in Spiced Marmalade, Salty Ocean, Mowed Lawn and Squeezed Lemonade were inked over the embossed background, and Gathered Twigs was used along the sides.


The tag is a Taylored Expressions Banner die. It was inked with Salty Ocean and Gathered Twigs Distress Ink. Back 2 School is from the new CDD School Zone stamp set, as is...


Bookworm. The tag is a Lil Inker Stitched Banner die and it was inked with Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade and Gathered Twigs. It was attached with a TH Tiny Attacher.


The adorable worm and apple is a Trina Clark image, also on the new CDD School Zone stamp set. They were colored with Prismacolor pencils. Glossy Accents was added to the glasses.
