Scrappy Moms Stamps - Terrific Tuesday Challenge

Hi everyone!  It's time for another Scrappy Moms Stamps - Terrific Tuesday Challenge. This week we are using Pack Your Bags.  If you don't have this cartridge, feel free to use a similiar cut from another cart or an SVG file.  We want everyone to play along.

I don't have Pack Your Bags yet so I used the little crab from Smiley Cards.  I forget about this cartridge....I guess because I don't have a real handbook.  It has some really cute images on it.

The patterned paper is from My Mind's Eye and the card base is from Lacy Labels.

We can't wait to see what everybody comes up with!  Click here to link up your projects!

April Fool's Day Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Aprl Fool's Day Blog Hop!  Thanks so much to Cristina from Crafting with Cristina for letting me join in on the fun! If you arrived from Mel's blog then you are in the right spot.  If you just stopped by for a visit, click HERE to start at the beginning.

We were asked to create a fun project in honor of April Fool's Day.  For some reason, I had a hard time deciding what to do....so I have two cards to show you.

For this card, I used Smiley Cards for the base and Create a Critter for the cow. 

I was trying to come up with something really funny....and then I saw this cake on Smiley Cards.  He looks like I feel as I quickly approach the big "4-0"  The sentiment is from the Scrappy Moms set - Kids, Inc.  It has an exclamation point at the end but I removed the ink from that and added in a "?" with a marker.   I think it turned out really cute. I put the cake on a wobble...this is the first time I've used one.  They are so fun!  This candle paper is from K and Company.

Now for some BLOG CANDY!  Please become a follower of my blog and leave a comment on this post for a chance to win a $10 gift card to either Michael's or JoAnn.  I'll use Random.org to draw a winner on Monday.

Your next stop is Gaby!  Thanks for stopping by.

Terrific Tuesday Challenge - Smiley Cards & A Winner!

Hi everyone!  It's time for another Scrappy Moms Stamps - Terrific Tuesday Challenge.  This week we are using Smiling Cards.  If you don't have this cartridge, you can still play along...just use a similiar cut from another cart. 

I cut the sun at 3".  The yellow paper is from a new pack by K and Company.  The blue mat is from Twinkle Toes at 4" (real size) and for the card base I welded two of the shapes together at 5" (real size).  The sentiment is from the Scrappy Moms set - Spring Fling.  I don't know when it happened, but I am apparently addicted to polka dots!  This paper is from DCWV- The Grade School Stack.  I can't help it...I am drawn to all these adorable papers...they make everything look so happy!

Be sure to play along with this fun challenge for a chance to win the Scrappy Moms set of your choice.

This One's For You....Smiley Cards

****To enter the CSN Stores giveaway click HERE*****

I spent some more time today playing with the new Smiley Cards.  I love this cartridge...there are so many cute cuts on there...and I haven't even started playing with the cards and envelopes yet.  I only wish there was a digital handbook available (maybe one is in the works...fingers crossed).  I just love looking at the images in the handbook before I decide what to cut....I sometimes have hard time "seeing" the image on the Gypsy.

I cut the mug at 3-1/2" and added some MS glitter.  This card is super simple but I think it turned out cute.  That's one thing about the images on this cart., they all go together really quick and are easy to layer.   The sentiment is from the Scrappy Moms Stamps set  For the Boys.

Hooray, a Giveaway!!!
