Eye Candy for Crafty Folk: Diana’s Designs

May 9, 2013 By Lena

Avid readers of my blog will know that my very dear friend – fellow blogger Diana of Toronto Teacher Mom – has an alter ego: in fact, she’s been leading a very crafty second life, if you please.

It’s always a pleasure to share some of her handmade cards with you – I mean really, who doesn’t appreciate a beautiful work of art? And I’m a huge admirer of clean lines, balanced embellishments and complementary colour schemes. Translation: her pieces are drool worthy.

Well, folks – she’s at it again! I am LOVING her newest designs. From whimsical dinosaurs to spectacular baby bumps, her handmade cards are a treat to behold.

Eye Candy of the Day: 

Now don’t you just want to a) be-friend Diana, b) have a special occasion, c) invite Diana to said occasion, and d) hope that she makes you one of her glorious cards? Oh yeah. Already ahead of you – cause we’re already friends, ha!

Click here to visit Diana’s Designs Blog. Be sure to have a coffee and cookie on standby, though, since you’ll likely be there a while.

      It’s a lot easier than it looks, especially if you’re lucky enough to own a Cricut.

        I’m sure it’s just as hard as it looks – don’t be so modest! LOL
