Do you love me? ~ Scrappy Moms Stamps June Release

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

I am back today with another card that I created with the newest Scrappy Moms Stamps release.

I LOVE the new Check This Out! set and had to use it.

To create this card, I started with the postage stamp cut from the B is for Boy Cricut Lite cartridge. I added an envelop from the Wild Card Cricut cartridge and placed a heart that I cut from the Create A Critter Cricut cartridge inside. I inked all the pieces with Ranger Distress Ink in Tea Dye.

My patterned paper is from Carta Bella's Devoted 6x6 paper pad. 

I added some baker's twine from My MInd's Eye and a paper rose from Recollections to my envelope.

I stamped my sentiment on my heart and placed that in my envelope.

For the inside, I stamped another sentiment from the Check This Out set and used the little heart to fill in each box and stamped it in the corners.

This is such a fun set!

Here's a look at it:

These stamps and so many more can be found in the Scrappy Moms Stamps Store.

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Until next time...

Happy Crafting!

Beary Special ~ PKS January Peek

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

You can find the SMS Winter Blog Hop HERE.

 

I am back with another peek of the new Peachy Keen Stamps January 2013 Stamps of the Month.

 

 

These bears are just the cutest!

 

I created the base of my card using the Bis for Boy Cricut Lite cartridge and my Gyspy. I then ran the base through my Cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots Embossing Folder.

 

My patterned paper is from an old Martha Stewart Valentine mat stack. I thought the postage stamp paper was perfect for this card.

 

I stamped my bear from the January 2013 Stamp of the Month. In fact, all the stamping including the sentiments are in this set. The Stamp of the Month is truly a great value. You get a ton of stamps on an 8.5"x 11" sheet.

 

I added some trim that was included in the January 2012 Peachy Picks Kit.

 

Everything was inked with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I, also, added some Glossy Accents to my little bears eyes and nose for some shine.

 

You can get even more peeks of this release on the Peachy Keen Stamps Blog.

 

Don't forget to join us on the Peachy Keen Connection for the release party. It all starts at 7:00 pm EST on Saturday, January 5th.

 

Stay tuned for more Peachy goodness!

 

Until next time...

Happy Crafting!

 

This is Gonna Sting... ~ Peachy Keen Stamps Linky Party

This is my second post for the day. To see the Scrappy Moms Stamps January release click ~~ HERE

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

This week over at the Peachy Keen Challenge Blog, we are having a party, a Linky Party, that is. Instead of the usual challenge, Peachy Keen is switching it up and we want you all to join us!

For my card I used the newly released PK-295 Cupid's Sting. This is the ca-utest image and I love the sentiment that comes with it!

I colored him with my Prisma colored pencils and blended them with mineral spirits. I added Gold Stickles to his halo, Xmas Red Stickle to the arrow, and Diamond Stickles to the wings and cloud.

I used B is for Boy Cricut Lite cartridge for the "stamp" mat. My patterened paper is from Marta Stewart's Hiolidays mat pad. This is from last year but I still love it!

All my pieces were inked with Ranger Distress Ink in Tea Dye. The sentiment was taped off so that I could stack it instead of stamped straight across.

For some finishing touches I added Pink Sorbet Baker's Twine from The Twinery, a button, and roses from my stash.

There's plenty more inspiration to be seen at the Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge Blog.
I hope you will join us in the party. You can link any project as long as it has a Peachy Keen Stamp on it. I can't wait to see what you create!

See you tomorrow!

Holly Jolly Gift Bag

Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I am sharing a cute treat bag that I made with the new Bitty Bags that can now be purchased at Scrappy Moms Stamps.

As I was trying to decide how I wanted to decorate this bag the thought came that I could easily design this for the sketch challenge over at Peachy Keen Stamps!

This is the sketch.

These bags are perfect for a big cookie or some other treat. They could even be used for some crafty supplies!! This Bitty Bag measures 5" x 8".

Here is a close up of the cute little Peachy face.

You're Out of This World!

Hello Crafty Friends!

Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together.

Today’s card was made for my nephew. His birthday was yesterday. I tried to make something that would appeal to an 11 year old boy. I don’t know if I hit the mark or not!

I went with a space theme. I used B is for Boy Cricut Lite cartridge to cut my rocket ship and little astronaut. Mini Monsters was used to cut my alien monster. I hand cut the ground that they are standing on and used my Cuttlebug and the Spots and Dots embossing folder for some texture. The background paper comes from My Mind's Eye Party Time stack.

Here is a close up of my little guys face. I used the hide contour feature on my Gypsy to hide his face. I then stamped it with Peachy Keen Stamps PK-642 Boy Mates Face Assortment. I added some silver Stickles to his helmet and then covered his face and helmet with Ranger Glossy Accents. For my monster I decided to give him some googly eyes and only use the nose and mouth of Peachy Keen Stamps PK-692 Monster Mash Face Assortment. I added some Starry Night Stickles to his spots.

My sentiment is fom Scrappy Moms Stamps "A Haunting We Will Go" set. I thought it was perfect for this card. I decided to use black embssing powder to heat emboss it. I love the way it came out!

Some other miscellanous items I used for this card were gems, Black Diamond Stickles, white and black gel pens, foam tape, and my trusty ATG.

Just a reminder, Scrappy Moms Stamps will be giving away an acrylic block to all customers who order this week and put “FCCB” in the instructions to seller sections of Pay Pal.

You can view all 22 sets that are available – HERE

Thanks for stopping by today.

Happy Crafting!!
