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.

Keep your fin up card

Looking to join my latest challenge (create an interactive card) prize is Spring Holiday Cards Cricut  Cartridge Deadline for entries is Feb 23rd at midnight PST if so click here

i just wanted to share another sneak peak for the newest scrappy moms stamps set FURRY FRIENDS. These stamps are designed to go with your cricut cartridge cut images, but are also versatile enough to use with your stamping projects too :)

This is a simple card that I made Using Life is a Beach & Twinkle Toes Cartridges



The Mermaid was cut at 4 inches, i ran her tail through my Fiskars Paper crimper to give it some texture. I couldn't decide on an appropiate "fish scale" like Embossing Folder.
The Label Cut from Twinkle Toes at 3.58 inches
I used my PK-660 Laughy Taffy Face Assortment to stamp the face on the mermaid


I hope you enjoy my quick and simple card

ho-hum lost mojo!

Hey friends,

I hope you don't feel like I have forgotten about you all. Since returning from vacation I just feel out of it and not creative at all.

Not to mention that my blackberry grew legs and walked off with someone else last week! Which has contributed to my over all ho-hum funk that I have been in a lately.

Now that I have my replacement and a little me time to myself, I have slowly but surely trying to get back in my creative and posting groove, and I am working on Momo's current and last challenge. Hopefully I'll have those up soon. I probably won't have the energy to make a video tutorial until this weekend.

I posted a quick notice that if anyone is interested in having a q&a session please feel free to post your questions here on this post and I want to do a video on camera to let you guys know a little bit about me. I really have enjoyed those of you who take the time to email back and forth with me. I want us all to be friends <3

In the meantime please send me mojo vibes so I can get out of the slump that I'm in.. And until next time please enjoy my little sneak peaks of what I've been working on.. I've started a few things and so far finished none... But hopefully be winding them up soon :)

I miss you all. Hugs my friends

Episode 26: La Isla Bonita Double Page Layout

Finally the much awaited Episode 26. Thanks so much you guys for being so patient with me while i was working on the My Pink Stamper Design Call. Once Again I'm Killing 2 Birds with One Stone for my Episode today. This week over at Emma's Blog the challenge was to create a scrapbook page using Doodlecharms. Unfortunately that is not a cartridge I own, so I jumped at the opportunity to use my Life is a Beach cartridge and make a double page layout for my upcoming vacation. This is something a do sometimes when I know of a specific event that is coming up that I will have a bzillion pictures for.
