Got Eggs? ~ SMS Terrific Tuesday Challenge

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

It's another Terrific Tuesday Challenge over at Scrappy Moms Stamps! This week's theme is anything Easter related.

 

I am posting this a little late but I am still without internet at home.

 

For my card I had to use the cute dressed-up bear from Teddy Bear Parade.

 

 

I stamped his face with a face from PKSC-13 January 2013. Glossy Accents were added to his eyes for some shine.

 

It's subtle and may be hard to see but I stamped PK-107 Cloudy Day background onto some patterned paper to create my sky.

 

I hand cut the eggs and added grass that I punch from a Fiscars grass punch.

 

My sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps "Spring Fling" set.

 

Head on over to Scrappy Moms Stamps to see what all of the Easter projects the designers have created. We would love for you to link up you project. Who knows! You may win a set of Scrappy Moms Stamps for playing along!

 

Thanks for stopping by!

 

Until next time...

Happy Crafting!

I will be so thankful when we can be connected again.

I wanted to get in on a few challenges so I made this cute Christmas card.

 

 

I wanted this card to be fun so I am using non-traditional colors. All my paper is from Recollections Jolly Holiday. Love the fun designs in the pad!

 

My bear was cut from Teddy Bear Parade Cricut Lite cartridge at 3 inches. For his face I used PK-146 Piles of 1" Smiles and added the brown to his eys with a Copic marker after coloring the whites with my white gel pen. to his eyes and nose I added Ranger Glossy accents to give him some shine.

 

I added Star Dust Stickles to his pom poms on his hat and shoes to make him sparkle an brads for his buttons.

 

 My sentiment come from Scrappy Moms Stamps "Winter Wishes." This is an older set but I still love all the Christmas sentiments on this set!

 

 

After stamping my sentiment, I ran my scalloped border through my Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots Embossing folder.

 

I added The Twinery's Pink Sorbet Baker's Twine. The cute little candy ornament was purchased at Hobby Lobby. It came in a pack with several colors and they all have glitter.

It's getting busy around here and I needed some tags so I thought this would be the perfect project.

 

 

Aren't these cute! Both of these tag bases were cut from the Elegant Edges Cricut cartridge at 4.25". My Santa and Reindeer were cut from Teddy Bear Parade Cricut Lite cartridge at 3 inches. You may have seen these guys a few weeks back. They have been waiting patiently on my craft table for the day I would use them.

The reindeer is too cute with his glittery nose! I stamped his face with PK-755 Critter Faces Large. His nose is covered with Xmas Red Stickles. I topped both his eyes and nose with some Glossy Accents to give them some shine.

 

The sentiments are from Scrappy Moms Stamps newest set "Christmas Cheer!"

Gobble Wobble with Peachy Keen Stamps and a Sale!

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

We are only one day away from Thanksgiving! Many of you are very busy getting ready. I know I am!

 

I am being featured on the Peachy Keen Blog today so I hope you like what I've created! :)

 

Well, I finally succumbed to all the cuteness and bought myself the Teddy Bear Parade Cricut Lite cartridge. I just couldn't resist all those images and great projects that I had seen all over the internet and from all you talented people!

 

With that being said, for my Peachy Keen feature today I put together a card using one of these cute little bears. Not only that, I put together a few more bears so that you can see several different Peachy Keen Face stamps that will bring these cuties to life!

 

Get ready for some cuteness overload!

 

All of the bears I am showing you today were cut from the Cricut Lite Teddy Bear Parade cartridge at 3 inches. I used the blackout for each bear so that I could use my Peachy Keen Stamps.

 

 

For the little bee bear I used the eyes from PKSC-10 October 2012. I filled in the whites with my White Gelly Roll Pen and added some blue to his eyes with my Copic marker. The little elf's face comes from PK-146 Piles of 1" Smiles. Again, I used my gel pen and Copic markers.

 

 

This cute little santa was stamped with PK-441 Cute and Cuddly 1 1/8" Faces and the reindeer was stamped with PK-755 Critter Faces Large. I added white highlights with my gel pen and I gave shine to all of the bears eyes and noses using Ranger Glossy Accents.

 

For my last bear, I created a card. Again, I cut my bear at 3".  I followed a sketch from Cardablities to create this card.

 

I used PK-135 Medium Bear Facial Features. For this cute little turkey, um bear, I created some texture on his body using my Cuttlebug and the Houndstooth embossing folder. I also embossed the brown strip behind that turkey using Swiss Dots.

 

I thought it would be fun to put this little guy on an Action Wobble. I'm thinking he looks a little peacked. Poor little guy! I stamped and heat embossed my sentiment using PK-141 Lil' Tweets Thanksgiving.

 

The inside sentiment is from PKSC-10 October 2012.

 

As you can see there are many different options that you can use with these bears. I've only given you a few to start. Peachy Keen Stamps offer tons more!

 

I will return tomorrow with a few more details about this card.

You're Un-Bee-lieveable! ~ SMS Terrific Tuesday

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

It's time for another Teriffic Tuesday Challenge at Scrappy Moms Stamps!

 

This week's challenge is to include a Critter in your project.

 

I just bought the Teddy Bear Parade Cricut Lite cartridge and couldn't wait to use it. In fact, you may be seeing more teddy bears in the near future.

 

Here's my card:

 

 

As I mentioned, I used Teddy Bear on Parade Cricut Lite cartridge for my cute little bear. The large circle and scallop was cut from Gypsy Wanderings. The small circles and scallops are from punches. All the patterned paper is from Echo Park Country Drive. I used the current Mojo Monday sketch for the layout of my card.

 

 

I added yellow stickles to my little bee/bear. His face was stamped with PKSC-10 October 2012. I colored in the eyes with my gel pen and Copic marker. Glossy Accents was added to the eyes and nose for some dimension and shine. I heat embossed his wings with some sparkly embossing powder. Everything was inked with Ranger Distress Ink in Vintage Photo.

 

I hand cut the banner and used a stamp from Scrappy Moms Stamps newest release "Critter Crazy!"

 

 

 

Check out the Scrappy Moms Stamps blog to see what my fellow design team. They always have something wonderful to share.
