Have a Cool Yule! ~ Shop Pumpkin Spice Inspiration

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I am sharing a little inspiration her and over on the Pumpkin Spice Blog.

I had a lot of fun making this cute winter card!

I started with a cut file from My Scrap Chick called Cute Winter Faces. I thought this cute little penguin would be even cuter using some patterned papers from My Mind's Eye Winter Wonderland 6x6 paper pad.

I added some MME Winter Wonderland Twine this his hat and topped it with a coordinating brad. I added a sentiment from Scrappy Moms Stamps A Holiday to Remember and my card was complete.

These papers were released last year and have been one of my favorite Christmas/winter papers! Guess what? They are still available at Shop Pumpkin Spice AND they are on sale!!

You can check out the Pumpkin Spice Blog HERE. 

I hope you enjoyed my card today!

Until next time...

Hello There! ~ Peachy Keen Stamps October Sneak Peek

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!!

Tonight I am sharing a sneak peek of the October release from Peachy Keen Stamps.

Angelica created this month's stamps and they are absolutely fabulous!! This set gets me in the mood for fall.

My card was created using stamps from PKSC-22 October 2013. I stamped the bushel basket and apples on water color paper and then water colored them with Distress markers. I think I am loving the water color look. So fun!!

I fussy cut my image and popped it on my card base. The card base was dry embossed with the Cuttlebug Distressed Stripes embossing folder. I added some patterned paper from Simple Stories Harvest Lane 6x6 paper pad, some hemp cord and button from my stash.

The sentiment is also from PKSC-22 October 2013 set. It was heat embossed with white opaque embossing powder.

If you would like more info on the Peachy Keen Stamp Club you can find the details HERE.

A Not So Spooky Tag ~ Scrappy Moms Stamps TTC

Hello! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Do you believe that it is the first of October already? This year seems to be flying by!!

Today I am sharing the project I made for the newest Scrappy Moms Stamps Terrific Tuesday Challenge.

The challenge this week is to create a project with a silhouette. 

I decided to make a fun Halloween tag.

I thought this cute little trick or treating witch silhouette from A Child's Year Cricut cartridge would be perfect. I cut a tag from the Sweet Treats Cricut Cartridge and added all my elements. 

My patterned paper is from DCWV Spooky Time Stack. I added a spider web border to the bottom and used my sewing machine to add some real stitching around the edge.

My sentiment is from the newest Scrappy Moms Stamps Love at First Bite set. It was stamped and punched with my 1.25" circle punch and layered on a 1.5" scallop punch. I added a charm from Recollections and some My Mind's Eye enamel dots.

I added and eyelet and then finished off my tag with some black crinkle ribbon.

The Love at First Bite is a fabulous set to add to your Halloween collection.

Here's a look at this fun set:

You can find this set and so many others at the Scrappy Moms Stamps Store.

Now check out what my design team buddies have created by going to the Scrappy Moms Stamps Blog.

We would love for you to join us in this fun challenge so create something with a silhouette and link up!

That's it for me today.

Until next time...

Happy Crafting!

Paper Issues ~ Halloween Linky Party

Let's Celebrate!

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I am sharing a card that I created for the Little Tangles Color Challenge.

The challenge is to use the colors Grey, Yellow, & Pink.

Here is my card:

I know it may not look like it in the picture but the pinks really do match!! I had such a hard time getting a good picture of this card!

I used the strip of dots from Neat and Tangled Party Dots stamp set to create my background. I used Hero Arts shadow inks in Soft Granite, Butter Bar, and Bubble Gum alternating the stamp and the inks.

I cute a party hat from Simply Charmed and added a pom pom made from Timeless Twine Raspberry Lemonade Baker's Twine. I also added some Neat Tangled Satin Sequins in Pretty Pretty Pink and Summer Sun to the rim of the hat.

My sentiment is included in the Party Dots set and was stamped with Hero Arts Charcoal ink.

If you would like to join in the challenge you can find the details on the Little Tangles Blog.

That's it for me today!

Until next time...

Happy Crafting!

Sparkle & Shine ~ Neat and Tangled Challenge

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

This week is a light design team week so I found I have a bit of time to play so, I thought I would try a few challenges.

The card I have for you today is for Little Tangles "Case the Birthday Bash Designer" challenge.

For my card, I decided to case Amy T's card. You can see her card HERE.

I used one of the newest released stamp sets from Neat and Tangled called "Merry and Bright." I stamped and paper-pieced the ornament. I added a few sparkles by embossing in Recollections Clear Gold Sparkle Embossing Powder and added a few gems for even more sparkle. The sentiment is from this same set. I just stamped it on a die cut that has been sitting on my desk for some time waiting to be used.

It's hard to see but I spritzed the ornament with some Sheer Shimmer Spritz. I was trying to get as my sparkle and shine as I could get!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Until next time...

Peachy Keen Stamps and Timeless Twine Inspiration

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

 Today I am sharing to 2 cards that I have created using Peachy Keen Stamps and Timeless Twine!

 

Peachy Keen Stamps and Timeless Twine has teamed up to bring you inspiration from now through September 28th.

It's my turn on the blog and this is what I am sharing.

 

 

For my first card, I knew I wanted to weave my Timeless Twine around the edge so I created a base layer in my Silhouette Design Studio. This allowed me to make my holes just the right size to add a double strand of Timeless Twine around the edge. I cut this cute little monster from KaBoodle Bug Designs called Little Monsters. I stamped a face from PK-692 Monster Mash Face Assortment on her. I colored in her eyes with a white gel pen and added some Glossy Accents. My sentiment is from PKSC-06 June 2012. My mat was embossed with the Seeing Spots Cuttlebug Embossing folder. Don't you just  love the color of this Timeless Twine! This color is called Raspberry Lemonade.

 

For my second card, I used the same base and weaved Aqua Delight Timeless Twine around the edge. I stamped and paper-pieced my bear from PKSC-13 January 2013 and added a sentiment from PK-159 Thinking of you Bear.

 

You can see plenty more inspiration on the Peachy Keen Blog here or here.

 

 

Make sure to visit the new Peachy Keen Stamps site and register. There is a fabulous sale going on through  the end of September you don't want to miss!

 

Thanks for joining me today!

 

Until next time...

Happy Crafting!
