Layout: Santa's Lap

Today I am sharing another layout I recently made and haven't had time to put up yet. I created this adorable Christmas Layout from Phoebe's Visit with Santa last year. I figured I might as well get caught up before the holidays start up again. It happens so quick!

for this layout I am featuring Scrappy Moms Stamps Winter Wishes Stamp Set. Which is my go-to stamp set for all things winter. All the cuts are from Lettering Delights: Christmas Dee-licious SVG Set. I wanted to do something different for this layout, so I decided to use my ruler and a white gel pen to draw diaganal patterns on the kraft cardstock after I had everything adhered. I think it turned out great!

Scrappy Moms Stamps Blog Hop

Hey there friends,

welcome to the scrappy moms stamps blog hop.  You should have arrived from lezlye's but if you're lost just use the blog hop list at the bottom of the post, or start from the beginning we are having a blog hop in celebration of Scrappy Moms 1 year anniversary of their stamp line.

we were each asked to create a project using our favorite scrappy moms stamps. I honestly couldn't pick just one of my favorite stamp sets so i opted to use a sentiment i have never used before. I used Special Delivery stamp set to create a simple card.

The doll cut comes from Lettering Delights Let's Play SVG Set. I used the Peachy Keen stamps Princess Face assortment to stamp the adorable face.  The heart pattern Paper is from K& Company  Wild Raspberry.



My card was inspired by the current Peachy Keen stamps Challenge. I just decided to make a #10 size card that would fit in a regular letter envelope (i have a million of them)

The 1st Birthday Spectacular  blog hop grand prize of ALL 18 current Scrappy Moms Stamps sets will be drawn from this hop so be sure to leave a comment at all the stops along the way to get as many chances to win as possible! Scrappy Moms will draw a winner on monday.

Scrappy Moms Stamps 1 Year Celebration & Other SMS projects

WOOHOO,

Google finally got my blog issues resolved and I'm finally able to post on my blog. YAY! I'm sooo happy.

I want to share that one of my most favorite companies in the entire world (and design team ) is currently celebrating their 1 year anniversary of their stamp line. They have been having a giveaway everyday for the past week. I haven't been able to post about it until right now. They have also been doing spotlights on all the design team members. So make sure you head over to the scrappy moms stamps and see my little spot light. I shared a few fun facts about myself :)

We each were asked to create a project using our favorite scrappy moms stamp set. I opted to use Furry friends, only because i love love love all of the punny animal phrases.

here is my new project

I created this 5.25x5.25 card using E.A.D Designs Stickerz and the stamp like i said was Furry Friends Stamp set from Scrappy Moms Stamps. I thought this would be a great congrats card. The pattern paper is from K& company Sweet Nectar. I love the bright summery colors. the Ribbon is from SU So saffron, and the twine is from Timeless twine

*******

Since I also didn't get a chance to post any projects on my blog for the last release of Scrappy Moms stamps(Sun Kissed)

I just wanted to post my pictures for you here in case you didn't head over to the scrappy Moms stamp during the sneak peek week.

I love love love this sentiment, it makes the most perfect summer thank you card. I used my Lettering Delights Summer Treats SVG Set, to make this adorable card. the Shape I used my Make the Cut software and the Plaque shape and welded it together to make a shape card. Once again I used the K& Company Sweet Nectar Paper pack here. The ribbon is from American Crafts. The twine is from Timeless Twine.


\

I love love love sunkissed because it was so fun to use it to scrapbook the Vacation my family took to Puerto Rico last August. I used the "Splish- Splash" sentiment to create my own blue pattern paper. All the other Pattern Paper is from DCWV Mango twist. which is a great stack with lots of bright tropical colors. Most of the cuts are from Cricut Pack your bags Cartridge with the titles being cut from Life's a Beach Cartridge on the Cricut Machine.

I also used Peachy Keen Stamps Happy Lashes, and Princess Facse Assortment Stamp sets to stamp the cute adorable faces.

Posting issues

This is just a test of my mobile posting capabilities. I have been having issues manually and auto posting on blogger via my computer. I have been working with google to resolve the issue.

Thanks for understanding please make sure to follow my facebook page and flickr gallery to up to date on my crafty creations

Blog celebration is still on

Hello Friends,

I am finally able to get back into my blogger account. As a few of you may already know my Google Account was hacked into late Friday Evening and I have been working with GOOGLE to restore service. Luckily the intruder did not bother or know about my Blogger account so it remains intact. Unfortunately I have lost a few of my videos. Past episodes as well as some private and family videos. which can never be replaced" Recorded private videos of my daughter as a newborn/infant that I had shared with my family via email.

I dont know what would motivate someone to do something so malicious like this, but I encourage each of you if you haven't already to regularly change your passwords.


Ok now that is all out of the way. I want tolet you know that my blog celebration is still on and I will not let this hiccup disrupt me from celebrating my wonderful one year in the blogging world.

I will continue with day #4 and awesome projects prizes and giveaway from Peachy Keen stamps

Once again sorry I have not been able to communicate this with you all earlier.

Thanks for bearing with me
