Scrappy Mom's Halloween Hop

Hello Everyone!!

I hope your having a great Saturday!  I'm sure while you all are reading this, I will be at work (boo hoo for me) but you all have tons of amazing projects from the Scrappy Mom Sisters! 



Welcome to the Halloween Hop!!  You should have arrived here from Cristina's blog but if this is just where you are starting, be sure to head over to Mel's blog as she is starting off the Hop and you don't want to miss a stop!  Today we are showcasing Scrappy Mom's newest released stamp sets called Bewitched and I absolutely LOVE them....Take a look at them below.  


Unfortunately, I do not have a completely finished project to show you.  This past week I've been taking my time and working on a Paper bag mini album.  This is my very first one, so its taking me a little while but Kathy, from Paper Phenomenon, has absolutely fantastic tutorials on Ustream.tv!!  She's my inspiration.  
So, as my album isn't quite done yet...I thought I'd share with you all a few tags and one page that has been completed.  I hope you guys enjoy it and I'll be sure to film a video once the whole album is done. 




The paper stack and chipboard pieces are from K&Company Spooktacular Collection that came out last Halloween but I just LOVE the paper :) 

Ready for a GIVEAWAY?!?!?! 

Scrappy Mom's is giving away a stamp set of your choice to 1 lucky winner !!!  All you have to do is leave a comment on each of blogs along the hop and your entered to win!!

Scrappy Mom's Sneak Peak!!!

Happy Friday Everyone!!!

I must say TGIF!!!  This week I've been crazy busy at work and staying MUCH later than usual and its totally throwing me in a funk!  But the week will be over by the end of the day! HOORAY!! 

Welcome to another Release for Scrappy Mom's Stamps!!  Tammy and Mel have done it yet again with 2 NEW stamp sets that are just absolutely FANTASTIC! You have one for your Sports themed projects--GAME DAY and the very exciting Halloween Set -- BEWITCHED!

Today, I'm using the Game Day for My Project. 

 At work as while back I was able to get some precut cards for an AMAZING price!!! Each pack contains 25 -- 5.5" x  5.5" and I got them for $1.00 Each!! What a steal :) Of course I got one of each color that was available.  These are great because not only are they sturdy, but they can be cut down to any size that you would like! 


I then took my barely used Nate's ABC to make the cut for my card.  And there is the finished product. 


And I got to use my new tool that I just got in the mail today!!! The SewEasy tool by WeRMemories...so my stitching isn't perfect but i LOVE the way it looks and adds to the card!  I went a little crazy when I ordered the floss ;) 


Be sure to check out the Scrappy Mom Sister's projects by clicking on their name in the right sidebar AND be sure to come back tomorrow for our Halloween Hop!!

Scrappy Mom's Terrific Tuesday Challenge!!

Happy Tuesday Everyone!!

Hope you have had a great day.....i'm yet again late on posting :(  I do apologize for that! 

As some of you may already know, the TTC for this week is to use Country Life!  I've been needing a little extra inspiration or direction lately, so I turned to a fantastic Magazine that I won as a giveaway last year. 


Sometimes, you just need a little guidance and thats what I love about sketch books/magazines.....below is the sketch I decided to go with. 


And here is the card that I came up with....I have to admit that I do not Love this card....but its something different than I normally create and thus i'm happy with it :)


Hope you guys have a Fantastic Week!!

Hey Everyone!!

Sorry I've been gone for a little while.... The last few weeks have been a little busy with company, but it has certainly been fun!! 

Over the last week, I've been brainstorming and working on a Frame for my desk at work.  I found a wooden frame at Michael's for $1.  I started out by painting it white. 


I then chose 4 different pieces of pattern paper.  For this card, I used DCWV "The Mod-Retro" paper pack and cut 1.5" x 1.5" squares.  Lay them out randomly.  (I used Scotch Quick Dry Glue and it worked GREAT!!!) 


Here is the flame completely covered and trimmed.  

And then I just embellished the frame and added a photo from our Vacation in Grand Cayman!!



Hope you guys enjoyed this easy and Inexpensive project!!  Have a great weekend!!
