Scrappy Moms - Terrific Tuesday Challenge

It's time for another Scrappy Moms Terrific Tuesday Challenge! We changed things up a little this time....we're having a color challenge.

I made a quick card with the cute little squirrell from Winter Woodland and a mat from Elegant Edges.  The sentiment is from the new Scrappy Moms set - A Holiday to Remember.

We can't wait to see what you guys come up with....head on over to Scrappy Moms to play along.

Unofficial Crop Chocolate Blog Hop

Hi everyone!  Welcome to the  Unofficial Crop Chocolate Blog Hop.  Some of the talented crafters who love Crop Chocolate decided to get together for a fun hop.  In case you don't know about Crop Chocolate....it is a website that offers a couple of really great deals on awesome paper crafting supplies each day.  What I love about it, is that you can hold all the items in your cart until your ready to check out.

For my project today, I used the Dots and Stripes paper from Echo Park that I recently purchased from CC.

I cut the starts from the the Gypsy cartridge and the hexagon shapes from Winter Woodland.  I used hide contours to hide all the snowflake cuts.  This font is from Nate's ABCs.

I also made this fun ribbon topiary....well it's supposed to be a topiary but I left off the stick.  I just hot glued it to the terra cotta pot.  I've found several tutuorial on the web and picked up all the stuff at Michaels yesterday.  All you do in cut strips of ribbon at 4" and the make the strips in to circles....I glued the ends together to form the circle.  Then you use straight pins to stick them to the styrofoam ball.  Really simple and fun to make.

Your next stop on the hop is http://engineeringmemories.blogspot.com/.  Make sure to visit all the stops on the hop for a chance to win some candy from our hostess.

Hi everyone!  I hope you all had a nice Mother's Day yesterday!  We had a family bbq.

I used my new Echo Park - Little Boy paper to make my card.  I love this paper...the colors are fabulous!

I used Winter Woodland for the tree and Create A Critter for the clouds.  The sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps- Amusing Animals.

Scrappy Moms Sneak Peak #2- All in the Family and a WINNER

Happy Tuesday everyone!  I hope your week is off to a great start.  I'm back with another card using the new Scrappy Moms Stamp set - All in the Family.  There were two awesome new sets release yesterday!

I found a cool new card shape....this hexagon is from Winter Woodland.  I used hide contours to hide all the little snowflake cuts and then welded two shapes together.  The size for this is 5.25"h.  The flower pot is from Freshly Picked and is cut at 3.5"h.  The label is from Lacy Labels at .96.  I added some lavender pearls and some SMS twine to finish it off.  I LOVE the way it turned out.
