What's Brewin'? ~ SMS Terrific Tuesday Challenge


Today is Scrappy Moms Stamps Tacky Tuesday Challenge and we are having some fun! The challenge this week is to use Mini Monsters Cricut cartridge. Don't own that cartridge? Don't worry you can use another or even an SVG cut that is a similar cut found on Mini Monsters. We just want you to have fun.

I created a shaped card for this challenge.


Here's a little close up of the sentiment and toad.


To create this card, I welded the shadow layers of the couldron and toad together in my gypsy. I then cut all my layer pieces and put it together. I used glossy accents on the witches brew and popped the bubbles. I asldo popped up my toad. I added lime green stickles to his spots and used 2 sets of Peachy Keen Stamps, PK-692 Monster Mash Face Assortment and PK-691 Make a monster Face 1 1/8. I colored in the whites with my gel pen and added Ranger Glossy Accents. My patterned paper is from K&Company's Spooktacular line and another older line. The little spider is a button that I picked up from Hobby Lobby. I had to cut off the shank so that it would lay flat. I added some Halloween twine to finish it off.

My sentiment was heat embossed in white so that it would show up on the black designer paper. This sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps "A Haunting We Will Go!" set. This is from last year but it is still a fun set. Have a look:


Aren't these sentiments just the most fun! They stamp beautifully, too!

Now head on over to Scrappy Moms Stamps to see what my fellow designers have made. Then whip something for the challenge. We would love for you to join us!

Have a wonderfully, scrappy day!

Hoopin' It Up! ~ SMS Sneak Peek #2

Hello Everyone! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I have the second peek for Scrappy Moms Stamps September release. 




Here's a little close up of the cool designer paper I found at Hobby Lobby. I love the textured look of the basket ball and the weathered wood on the backboard of the basket ball hoop.

I kept this card kind of simple. To tell you the truth I just couldn't find a background paper that I was happy with. So I just inked up my Kraft cardstock and took it from there.

The sentiment comes from Scrappy Moms Stamps Game Day. It's great for all your sports related projects.

These stamps are in stock and ready for shipment. Just head over to Scrappy Moms Stamps and grab yourself a set!

Here are the details for my card:
Life's A Party Cricut Cartridge ~ basketball
Paper Dolls for Everyday ~ basketball hoop
Baker's Twine ~ purchased from Scrappy Moms Stamps :)
Ranger Distress Ink ~ Tea Dye
Misc. ~ eyelets, foam tape, atg

It's not too late to leave a comment on the Scrappy Moms Halloween Blog Hop. Just scroll down. I will be choose on random name and it will be put in a drawing with all the other names from the design team blogs to win a Scrappy Moms Stamps set of the winner's choice.

Thanks for stopping and Happy Crafting!!
