My Sweet Ginger ~ Shop Pumpkin Spice Inspiration

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I am sharing some inspiration here and on the Pumpkin Spice Blog.

I have this cute cut file from My Scrap Chick that I couldn't wait to put together so I gathered some supplies that I got from Shop Pumpkin Spice and got to work.


This gingerbread belly box is so cute!! It is from the Christmas Belly Box set from My Scrap Chick. I started with some Bazzill Kraft Cardstock and cut the base of my box. I used some My Mind's Eye Winter Wonderland 6x6 papers for the hat on my ginger. I ran the brim through my Cuttlebug with the D'Vine Swirls embossing folder. I added a button and some bakers twine to the hat. I created the pom pom with some Caribbean Baker's Twine by The Twinery .


This cute face was created with PK-1202 The Moodies 2 1/4" faces. Glossy Accents were added to the eyes for a little shine.

With the holiday coming this is a fun way to give a yummy treat! 

Make sure to check out all the fun crating items Shop Pumpkin Spice has to offer!

Thank you for joining me today!

Until next time...
Happy Crafting!

Be Naughty!

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Over the weekend Peachy Keen Stamps, KaDoodle Bug Designs, and Too Cute By Jessica had teamed up for a combined Facebook Hop. There was lots of inspiration and fun projects shared.

Today I am sharing the card I created for the hop. I really enjoyed putting this card together.


I used a cut file from Too Cute By Jessica called Grumpy Christmas. Don't they look like the Grinch and Max? So fun!!

I stamped my Grinch's face with PK-690 Make a Monster Assortment and Max's face with PK-170 Teddy Bear Assortment.

My sentiment is from PKSC-11 November 2012. I thought it was perfect for these die cuts!

Just wanted to to give you heads up that there is a lot going on over at Peachy Keen Stamps, a sale and a few challenges. Check out the website and the forum for all the details!

Thank you for joining me today!

Until next time...

Christmas Tag ~ Shop Pumpkin Spice Blog Hop

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Welcome to the First Saturday in December and the Shop Pumpkin Spice Blog Hop.

This month is all about tags.

If you came from June's Blog: Simply Elegant Paper Crafts then you are in the right place. If you just happened upon my blog and want to start from the beginning the head on over to June's blog because she is the first stop!!

Here is the tag I created for you today.


For m y tag I chose designer paper from My Mind's Eye Winter Wonderland (psst.. this paper is on sale!!). I have loved this paper so much that I have 2 pads and lots of scraps. So, I thought this would be a great way to use up some of those scraps.

I used the Stitched Hexy Dies from My Creative Time and cut out 10 hexies. I, then, created my tree. It was really easy and I love the way it came out. I topped the tress with some Twinery Baker's Twine and topped it with a brad from the coordinating My Mind's Eye Brads.

I added a little stitching around my tag and stapled on some ribbon from my stash.

There are many items on sale at Shop Pumpkin Spice make sure to visit the store HERE or HERE.

Now it's time to see what Heather has created!

Thank you for joining me today.

Until next time...
Happy Crafting!

Hang It On A Tree ~ PKS Challenge

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

I am here today to share my project that I created for the newest Peachy Keen Stamps challenge.

This week's challenge:

Create a 3D object of your choice following the theme "Hang it on a tree!" It could be garland, ornaments or anything else of your choosing!
We'll be awarding "TOP PEACH" to the player who uses their Peachy Keen Stamps this week and  our two runner ups will receive a spiffy badge to display on their blog!
Guidelines:
- Design must be new
- Link up by 12/11 - 11:59 pm EST


I haven't put my Christmas tree up yet so I took these out in my front yard and hung them on that tree. :)

I used a cute cut file from My Scrap Chick called Winter Pavor Favor Boxes and Cards to create my Christmas Ornaments.


My gingerbread was stamped with PK-521 Winter Faces 1 1/8.  I colored in the nose and hearts with my Copics then I added a little glossy accents to the hearts. The cookies got some fruit punch Stickles and some DS65-3 Snow Writer. I thought it looked like frosting.


Isn't the penguin cute!! I stamped his face with PK-755 Critter Faces Set A Large


I had to a Santa, too! Santa's face was stamped with PK-1321 In the Garden 1 1/8th faces.

I added some white gel pen accents to all my ornaments.

I punched a small hole through both parts of the boxes and knotted a ribbon loop and pulled it through. The boxes can hold a somethin' somethin' inside.

Here's one last picture where you can kind of see the sides.


I hope you will join us in the challenge this week! You can share your link to your "Hang It On A Tree" project on the challenge board at Peachy Keen Stamps!

Simple Birthday ~ Peachy Keen Stamps December Sneak Peek

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I am sharing another sneak peek of Peachy Keen Stamps December release.

I love these new Reverse Sentiments that Angelica created!


I used the happy birthday sentiment to make a quick card. The background of my card was dry embossed with the Cuttlebug Birthday embossing folder. The rick rack was created with Chevron and Rick Rack die from Scrappy Moms Stamps.


I stamped my sentiment from PK-1347 Reverse Sentiments in some Tsukineko Brilliance Dew Drop Ink in Pearlescent  Orchid ink. It has a nice shimmer to it. I tried to capture it in this picture.


I layered my sentiment on top of a scallop that I punched and a Tim Holtz rosette.

It was super quick and so easy to put together!

Tonight is the night that you will be able to see the whole reveal and you will finally be able to purchase your stamps. Join us on Facebook HERE to get in on all the release party fun!

The Peachy Keen Store will have to stamps ready for purchase after the full reveal.

Thank you for joining me today!!

Until next time...
Happy Crafting!

Holly Jolly Boot ~ SMS Terrific Tuesday Challenge

Hi there! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

Today I am sharing a project I made for the new Terrific Tuesday Challenge at Scrappy Moms Stamps.

The challenge for this week is to use something silver or gold.

I made this cute Santa's Boot.


This cute Santa's boot is a cute file from My Scrap Chick. It takes a little time to put together but it is well worth it!

I used a patterned paper for the boot that I've had in my stash for a long time.


I tied a silver bow around it and added a sentiment from Scrappy Moms Stamps A Holiday to Remember. I stamped it then punched it with my circle punch and layered it in the scallop circle.


For the cuff of the boot, I ran it through my Xyron sticker maker and added some white Fun Flock to it. 

This is such a fun way to give a little gift and now that I've made one I know better how to put it together next time.

You can join us in challenge over on the Scrappy Moms Stamps Blog

Scrappy Moms Stamps is also having a guest design team call and there is space for one permanent designer. You can check out the details HERE.

Thank you for joining me today.

Until next time...
Happy Crafting!
