Happy Bark Day!

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I am sharing a project that I created for the current Paper Smooches Designer Drafts challenge.

I haven't participated in any challenges for a while and thought this would be fun!

This week's challenge is a sketch challenge.

I decided to create a tag.

For my tag I used the cute little dog and sentiment from Paper Smooches "Birthday Buddies" set. 

I colored my puppy with Copic markers and heat embossed the sentiment and little stars with white embossing powder.

Other items used:

Echo Park Bundle of Joy Boy 6x6 paper pad

Washi Tape

Fiscars edge punch

The Twinery Baker's Twine

Ribbon

Ranger Distress Ink in Vintage Photo

I hope you like my tag as much as I had fun putting it together! You can join in the challenge HERE.

Thank you for joining me today.

Until next time...

I Adore You ~ Shop Pumpkin Spice Inspiration

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I am sharing a little Shop Pumpkin Spice inspiration here and on the Pumpkin Spice Blog.

If you haven't noticed there is a trend happening now for CAS (Clean and Simple) cards. I am not usually clean and simple. :) I love adding layers and such but today I thought I would give it a try. I'm not sure how CAS this card is but I like the way it came out.

For my card today, I started with a piece of Bazzill 8.5" x 11" Classic White cardstock. I cut it in half and then scored it to measure 4.25" x 5.5" and rounded the corners. I stamped the card with a hexagon background stamps and used a hexagon die to cut some pretty patterns from My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline "Dolled Up" paper. I randomly placed the cut hexagons on the card.

My sentiment is from Paper Smooches "We Connect" set. Once I placed my sentiment the way I wanted it I stamped it with Momento Black Ink. For some interest I added some sequins and then tied some "Honeydew" Baker's Twine around my card.  

Make sure you check out all the great products that Shop Pumpkin Spice has to offer HERE and HERE.

There's still time to enter into the Pumpkin Spice "Sunshine" Challenge. You can find all the details HERE.

Sending Prayers ~ Shop Pumpkin Spice Inspiration

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

Today I am sharing a little sumthin' sumthin' that I created using products I got from Shop Pumpkin Spice. I am, also, providing inspiration on the Pumpkin Spice Blog.

 

 

With the tragedy of the Boston bombing still in the air, this sentiment from Paper Smooches "Flap Happy" felt appropriate. The beautiful butterflies are also from this same set.

 

I love the soft pretty colors that come from the My Mind's Eye "Nostalgia" papers. They worked perfectly for the butterflies and my background.

 

This card came together quickly and would be easy to recreate.

 

Shop Pumpkin Spice has a wonderful selection of designer papers, stamps, and embellishments. The prices are very reasonable and the shipping is fast.

 

For daily inspiration, please visit the Pumpkin Spice Blog. There is also a new challenge every Saturday. You can check out the current challenge HERE.

Until next time...

Enjoy this Day ~ SPS Inspiration

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

Today I am sharing a card that I made using products from Shop Pumpkin Spice.

 

I thought I would use the current Pumpkin Spice Challenge for my inspiration. The challenge this week is to create something with "Spring Animal or Insects."

 

I have always wanted to cut this jar of butterflies from Kate's ABC Cricut cartridge and this challenge was perfect.

 

 

My patterned paper is from My Mind's Eye The Sweetest Thing "Tangerine" 6x6 pad. I love the beautiful colors and patterns in this pad! I layered it on some kraft cardstock. I added some yellow ribbon from my stash and topped it with a brad from My Mind's Eye The Sweetest Thing "Sunshine" decorative brads.

 

I added a bit of The Twinery Baker's Twine in Canteloupe to embellish the jar.

 

I chose a sentiment from Paper Smooches Flap Happy set.

 

You can find these products and so much more at Shop Pumpkin Spice and the prices are always at least 30% off retail.

 

If you would like to join in the Pumpkin Spice Weekly Challenge then be sure to head on over to the Pumpkin Spice Blog. You have until Friday 9 PM est to link your project. We would love for you to join in!

 

Thank you for joining me today!

 

Until next time...

Birthday Fishes!

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

I wanted to share a card that I created for the Pumpkin Spice Challenge. This week's challenge is Blue, White, and something Round.

 

For my card I wanted to use my new Paper Smooches stamps that I received from Shop Pumpkin Spice. This was the first time ever using Paper Smooches and I have to say, I LOVE THEM!

 

The set I am using is called "Birthday Buddies."

 

 

I started with a kraft card base then layered another kraft layer. I inked both layers with Ranger Distress Ink in Tea Dye.

 

I cut circles in several different sizes and embossed my white circle with the Cuttlebug Tiny Bubbles embossing folder.

 

My center circle was layered on a rosette the I created with the Tim Holtz Sizzix Sizzlits Die - Paper Rosettes. This is about $6.00 cheaper at Shop Pumpkin Spice compared to my local craft stores!

 

I stamped my fish on some patterned paper from Echo Park and added a googly eye. I stamped the bubbles that come with the PS set and then added gems.

 

My sentiment is also from the same Paper Smooches set. You can see all the Paper Smooches Stamps that are available at Shop Pumpkin Spice HERE.

 

I used a sketch from Deconstructing Jen.

 

 

Come check out the challenge on the Pumpkin Spice Blog. There is a brand new challenge every Saturday and runs from Saturday to the following Friday. We would love for you to join us!

 

I am adding this card to the following challenges:

 

Pumpkin Spice ~ Blue, White, Something Round

Deconstructed ~ Sketch #86

My Craft Spot ~ Wish Big

Party Time Tuesday ~ #105 Anything Goes

Little Scrap Pieces ~ Birthday
