Teddy Tags with Scrappy Moms Stamps

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

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

 

This week we want to see your Christmas projects.

 

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 designer paper is from Echo Park's Season's Greetings. I purchases this last year. The Santa Teddy was stamped with PK-441 Cute and Cuddly 1 1/8" . I added Glossy Accents to his eyes and nose and Stickles to his hat and coat.

 

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!"

 

 

Head on over to Scrappy Moms Stamps and join in the challenge and check out all the projects that design team has created. They are fabulous! I can't wait to see what you create!

 

Until next time... Happy Crafting!

Elegant Birthday ~ PKS Senak Peek Day 2

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

It's day 2 of the Peachy Keen Stamps sneak peeks! Today I have a simple but elegant card that I created with the December Stamp of the Month and the Peachy Picks Kit.

 

 

I had cut this scallop and over at the wrong size and had it sitting on my craft table. So, I had to use it! I so love the new Peachy Picks Kit! The papers are gorgeous!

 

My sentiment and beautiful scroll work is from the new December Peachy Keen Stamp of the Month. I just love that you can use this to make a beautifully elegant card.

 

I used my I-Rock to add a few gems for a little sparkle and added Vintage Photo Distress Ink to all my edges. I love this elegantly simple card!

 

You may have heard that this will be last month for the Peachy Picks Club. I am kind of sad. I have been part of the club the whole year and have really enjoyed the kits. With that being said, you may want to jump on this kit if you love what you are seeing as there are a limited amount of kits available. Don't worry, though. The Peachy Keen Stamp of the Month will continue and I cannot wait to see what is to come in the new year.

 

Check out the Peachy Keen Stamps Blog for more sneak peeks and be sure to visit all the designers' blogs. Everyone has been busy creating!

 

The new stamps and Peachy Picks kit will be available for purchase Wednesday evening, December 5th after the release party on the Peachy Keen Connection.

 

I will be back tomorrow with another sneak peek so stay tuned!

If you are looking for the Pumpkin Spice Blog Hop scroll down or click HERE.

 

Here we are the start of a new month and the Peachy Peeks begin!

 

I know I say it every month but you are going to LOVE this month's Peachy Keen Stamps release! Kathy has been busy and has created so many new stamps!

 

The card I am showing you today was actually seen in the Peachy Picks Newsletter that some of you may have seen yesterday.

 

 

I used the December Peachy Picks Kit and the brand new PK-150 Snow Sweet Snow stamps.

 

I paper pieced the hat and colored the snow family with Copic markers. I stamped the sentiment on a banner that I cut from the Winter Frolic Cricut cartridge. The oval and scallop were cut from Elegant Edges Cricut cartridge. I ran the oval through my Cuttlebug using the Snowflakes embossing folder. For a little sparkle I spray it with some Glimmer Mist in Iredescent Gold..

 

All my papers and embellishments are included in the December Peachy Picks kit. If you received the Peachy Picks Newsletter then you know that this will be the last kit that Peachy Keen Stamps will be offering. If you are wanting this one you will need to be quick.

 

The new stamps and Peachy Picks kit will be going on sale Wednesday evening, December 5th, after the release party on Peachy Keen Connection!

 

If you missed out on any of the previous Peachy Picks Kits there are still some available. Check them out at Peachy Keen Stamps.

 

Make sure to visit all the design teams' blogs for more Peachy Peeks.

 

I will be back tomorrow with another peek!

 

Until next time...

A Season For Happiness! ~ SPS December Blog Hop

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

Happy December!

 

Today the Shop Pumpkin Spice design team is hopping.

 

You are in for a real treat! Why? Well, each designer is being featured in the month of December and we are all using the new December Kit "Wonderland Fun!". This kit is chock full of fabulous goodies!

 

If you came here from the Pumpkin Spice blog then you are in the right place. If not, you can start from the beginning by clicking --> HERE.

 

For my project I created this adorable card!

 

 

Doesn't my little guy look like he is having a fabulous time! I totally love the way this card came out!

 

All my designer paper and embellishments are in the "Wonderland Fun!" December Kit. The kit contains not one, but two 6x6 paper pads! They are both wonderful! I used the Carta Bella's "Winter Fun" for this card.

 

My little sled rider was cut from the Winter Frolic Cricut Cartridge. I added Frosted Lace Stickles (included in the Dec. Kit) to his hat and a fun little pom pom I had in my stash. For some shine, I added some Glossy Accents (included in the Dec. Kit) to his boots. I used my Gypsy to hide his face so I could stamp this fun face on him. (PK-145) I used the Distressed Stripes Cuttlebug embossing folder on his sleigh. I cut the background shape from Elegant Edges Cricut Cartridge. I added a layer of snow that I had embossing with D'Vine Swirls. After I embossed it I added Frosted Lace Stickles to it. The snowflake was cut from the Christmas Solutions Cricut cartridge. I cut it twice and layered them together for some faux chipboard. To this I added I added, you guessed it, Frosted Lace Stickles and a brad (included in the kit).

 

For the sentiment, I cut a tag from the Carta Bell paper. I inked it and added this baker's twine bow.

Grace

Hi There! Welcome to Luv Scrapping Together!

 

It's been a bit quiet on my blog this week but that is only because I have been busy creating for some upcoming design team projects.

 

Today's project was created as a gift for a special lady. I was asked to create a layout with a note and picture for a scrapbook that is being created as a birthday gift for her.

 

Now, I don't do a lot of scrapbooking because it takes me so long to feel like I am happy with the layout. I kept this one simple and tried to go with a quiet beauty.

 

 

I used the following items to create this layout:

 

Cricut Expression and Gyspy

Baby Steps Cricut Cartridge ~ "grace" welded with my Gyspy

Stretch You Imaginations Cricut Cartridge ~ tag at the bottom

Market Street Stamps ~ MSS-BK-10 Vintage Notepad

Martha Stewart Punch

DCWV Rustic Stack

Flat Backed Pearls

Vintage Photo Distress Ink

 

My flowers were just cut from the designer paper. I didn't want the layout to be too bulky and these flowers are very pretty with a glossy overlay.

 

A few things coming up on blog:

 

Tomorrow, we will be hopping with ShopPumpkin Spice!

 

 

I have a cute, cute card that I cannot wait to share with you and since it's the season of giving, I may have a little somethin', somethin' for one lucky follower!

 

Also, tomorrow marks the beginning of the December sneak Peeks for Peachy Keen Stamps! The new stamps are fabulous as always! I've been working on several projects that I will be sharing over the next few days.

 

Well, that's it for me today. Thanks you so much for all your sweet, sweet comments. I read every one and it means a lot to me that you take the time to comment.

 

Until next time...

Happy crafting!

I added Ranger Glossy Accents to this cuties eyes and nose.  Shop Pumpkin Spice has the best price on the Scotch Adhesive Tape Glider refills. I go through plenty of these!
