New Scrappy Mom's stamps- Sneak #1

Hi Paper Lovers...

Its time for some brand new Scrappy Mom's stamps that are PERFECT for your Valentine's projects but can be used all year round too! Please join myself and the rest of the Scrappy Mom's design team as we show you sneaks from the new set all week.



I had this idea for my first card as soon as I saw the sentiment Lucky In Love. For such a simple card, it took me ALL DAY LOL! I couldnt get the darn heart clover to look right...I am sure I was making it much harder then it had to be =) I ended up using three hearts from the Indie Art cartridge. They are sized at 1.8 in my Gypsy.
I hand cut the stem and covered all the pieces in glitter. The background papers are from DCWV Spring Stack. The button brads are from K&Company and were a gift from my super sweet friend Julie!!!

One more thing before I go...Saturday, please join the Scrappy Mom's team for a Valentines Blog Hop and a chance to win a set of the brand new set! Thanks for stopping by!!!

NEW Scrappy Mom's stamps!!!

Hi Paper Lovers...

Its release time....YAY!!! This time the Scrappy Moms are releasing TWO brand new sets!!!

For my first card...I used the Dancing in Circles set....sooo super fun!!! These circle stamps fit inside a 1.5 inch circle...speaking of a 1.5 inch circle....Mel and Tammy (the Scrappy Moms) are going to give a way a 1.5 inch circle punch AND the coordinating scallop punch. If you purchase Dancing in Circles from 12/9-12/18 you will be entered into a drawing to win both punches...how cool is that!!!



I made a 4 1/4x 4 1/4 size baby card using the Cute as a Button sentiment. The patterned cardstock is from the DCWV Baby Girl stack. This DARLING rocking horse is from the B is for Boy Cricut Lite cartridge. I cut him at 2.5. The stamp shape is also from B is for Boy and is cut at 4. The scallop is from Winter Woodland...I cut the Circle at 1.5 on real dial size and the Scallop at 1.8 on real dial size. I tied my scallop on with some Lemon Drop bakers twine. And I added a button to the center of the circle....EASY card!!!

NEW Scrappy Mom's stamps

Hi Paper Lovers...

Its that time again...WOO HOO!!! Mel and Tammy AKA the Scrappy Mom's....have released TWO new sets and they are BOTH AMAZING!!!!!!

The holidays are FAST approaching and this new set A HOLIDAY TO REMEMBER combines some GREAT sentiments for the Fall/Winter holidays.

AND with October being Breast cancer awarness month, what better way to support cancer patients and reasearch then by purchasing the BELIEVE in MIRACLES set. $2 from each set sold will be donated to cancer research and support. Its a WIN WIN.



For my first sneak this week, I chose a sentiment from Believe in Miracles. My mother passed away when I was 10 years old. She had breast, brain and lung cancer. That was almost 25 years ago. I do believe in miracles because so many more men and women are cancer SURVIVERS these days!!! Lets keep the research going and add to the numbers of people who are able to beat this horrible desease!!!

I remember my Mom wearing one of these turbans when she lost all her hair. When I put this card together...I totally thought of her!!!

Terrific Tuesday Challenge with Scrappy Mom's

Hi Paper Lovers....

So here it is Thursday and I am just getting around to posting the Tuesday challenge over at Scrappy Mom's...its been a BUSY couple days =) In case you do not know...every other Tuesday, Scrappy Mom's has a Cricut challenge on their blog. They pick a winner each month and give away a set of their stamps....woo hoo!!! This Tuesday's challenge is to use the B is for Boy or the Sugar and Spice cartridge to go along with the release of their new stamp set Kids Incorporated. So...what do you do if you do not have either of these cartrdiges...use something similar like I did. I used Boys Will be Boys! As soon as I saw this sentiment from the Kids Incorporated set...I had to make a robot card!!! I LOVE this card...it could be used for a kid's birthday...going away to camp....going on vacation...any type of card...it doesnt even have to be for a kid. You could even give it to someone who is starting a new job!

MadebyMomo's Tuesday Challenge- You are my Sunshine!

Hi Paper Lovers....

Its Tuesday and its time for another MadebyMomo Tuesday Challenge. This weeks challenge is to find something that inspires you and make a project with that inspiration. I often get my inspiration from my Cricut cartridges...its usually an image I want to cut. I also get inspiration from sentiment stamps, especially Scrappy Mom's stamps...their sentiments are perfect with Cricut images and go hand and hand. And I also get tons of inspiration from Patterened Paper and Cardstock. That is where I got my inspiration for this card. This Cardstock is from the DCWV SongBird stack. I really loved this little image and wanted to repeat it in my card.



And here is the card that came from that inspiration. Its a pretty simple card. Click HERE to head on over to Momo's blog and see what the other girls came up with and I hope you can join in on the fun of this inspiration challenge. Thanks for stopping by!
