Christmas Cards - Fun With Scraps

 

These cards were way fun to create.  I just wen thru my Christmas scraps and punched various size circles.   After stamping my greeting with a Gina K stamp I set the circles around it.   Some are flat and some are popped up with foam tape.  Lastly I added some enamel dots and layered it all onto a kraft card base.  

 

I do love how they turned out and they have been super popular at craft fairs.  I have another one coming up on the 18th so that is exciting.  

 

In the mean time we are packing for this weekends retreat!  So excited to get away with friends and play.

 

Thanks for stopping by to take a look,  hope you are enjoying your week. 

Christmas Tradition Gingerbread House - Scrappy Saturday

 

 A quick layout with a cute title cut from Silhouette and mirror cardstock.  It goes all around the page.  I did fussy cut some cookies from patterned paper and die cut a house and doodle it to look like gingerbread.  Once the layout was down I doodled in white around the edge.  Super happy I could use all 4 full size photos.

 

We are getting ready to go crop next weekend super excited I have some fun layouts planned as well as other projects.  I will try to take photos of our adventures better than the last crop over the summer.

   

Vintage Fall Themed Cards

 

Hello and Happy Fall.  So excited to share these cards I created using Vintage images cut out and layered over some Tim Holtz die cut skeleton leaves.  I cut the leaves from paper I created using oxide inks and the smooshing technique.

 

 

The little gold embellishments are Diamond Dots.  Love those little things they are perfect for everything.  The patterned paper is some old Fancy Pants paper from a 6x6 pad. Finally I added some black twine. 

 

I think the set turned out perfect.  

 

Thank you so much for stopping by!   Hope your enjoying the first few days of Fall.

Delightful Daisy Cards

Happy Weekend.  I've been trying to get back into my craft room every week creating something new.  This week I was inspired by the Lawn Fawnatics color challenge and a few Lawn Fawn dies and stamps to create these slimline cards  I used Delightful Daisy as my main focal point, and the Happy Birthday, Hello and Thank You Borders, cut from copper mirror card, for my greeting.  I also used the grasses from Gleeful Gardens on my background which was created using Distress Oxide inks in Speckled Egg, Bundled Sage, and some Peeled Paint.  The flowers were cut from paper I colored with Distress Oxide as well, Worn Lipstick and Seedless Preserves.    I then grunged them all up with Walnut Stain and some shimmery copper splatters.  I tried really hard at the end to ruin them with glue everywhere because, you know, it's not fun(exhilarating) unless you try to mess it up just as your almost finishing a project...  

I could not decide on a greeting so I used 3 different ones.  The Hello is new just got that one while in Iowa at Scrapmania.  I love being able to use new product within a month of getting it, instead of putting it away and forgetting about it

Thank you for stopping by and taking a look.  Hope you have a Wonderful Weekend.

Scrappy Saturday - Light Effect

 

Yay it's the weekend.  Created this layout using a base page from my stash I made with my scraps awhile back.   I found some older letter stickers that can be colored and inked them to match the papers.  The little letters are My Little Scrapbook(I don't think they are around anymore).

 

The pictures are from when Abbi changed her room up and added LED lights all around.  They change colors, she loves them.   We tried our best to photograph some of the different colors.

Thank you for stopping by!  Have a wonderful day.
