Birthday Card-Scrappy Mom's Sneaky #2




Hi Paper Lovers...

Here is my sneaky #2 for the new Scrappy Mom's release. This time I used BOTH sets. I used the numbers 3 & 6 from the Hooray For Birthdays set to fit inside the Birthday sentiment from Dancing in Circles. I also stamped May All Your Wishes Come True on the front. Dont you just LOVE the fonts on these sets!!! This is going to be ONE of the Birthday cards I make for my BFF. She is turning 36 later on this month. I used the Better Together Imagine Cricut cartridge for the patterned paper, coordinating cardstock and the girl hiding behind all the presents....the scallop came from Winter Woodland.

Dont Forget....for every purchase of the Dancing in Circles set from now until 12/18...you will be entered into a giveaway for a 1.5 circle punch and coordinating scallop punch which work perfectly with the Dancing in Circles!!!

And check out our Guest Designer this month Kristy from Craftin on my Door...she made the most adorable gingerbread garland using the Dancing in Circles...toooooo cute!!!

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!!!

Sending You A Latte Thanks! Thank you card


Hi Paper Lovers....

Have another super QUICK card today to show you the new Scrappy Mom's set, Freshly Brewed! I used my Imagine again on this card. I needed to make some thank you cards for my friend Julie and needed to make as many as possible. The Imagine is PERFECT for mass-producing cards....its so easy!!! I used the Better Together Imagine cartridge for the cute little cup, patterned paper and the pink color. I embossed the background shape with the Argyle Cuttlebug embossing folder. I added some pink bakers twine and Diamond Stickles to the steam and thats IT...super simple!!!

Its so easy to click on what colors you want each layer to be and put one piece of white cardstock on the mat and BAM...the Imagine does all the work =)

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!!!

Click HERE to head on over to the Scrappy Mom's blog and get your stamps! AND THIS JUST IT.....FREE SHIPPING ON ALL ORDERS PLACED ON OCTOBER 7-16TH!!!!!!!
