My Top 10 Cards of 2010!

Suzi over at The Manic World of Mrs Weyremaster has challenged us to pick our top 10 favorite cards of 2010. So without further ado here are mine - well, one caveat, I picked 11! I just couldn't narrow it down any further! LOL










I hope you all enjoyed my review of my favorite cards from 2010! Thank you for stopping by for a visit!

Be sure to join us for the "Let's Celebrate" blog hop on Jan 1st, hosted by Joanna from Scrap Making! Have a safe and happy New Year! :)

New Designers Choice Card and a Winner! :)

Hi, all! I hope that you are all having a great holiday season!

I made a quick card today using Birthday Bash and Carousel, and of course, my sweet Gypsy. :)

The elephant is cut at 3.5" and I welded two ticket shapes together to make the card base. The elephant is also on a Wobbles - I LOVE them. Hopefully, Santa will bring me a new video camera so that I can take a video of how cute they are when they wiggle! :)

I also have a winner from the Homemade Hop - sorry, it has taken so long! It's been a hectic week! LOL

Great cards. I like how you used the same layout & cut different images. I have been making so many Christmas cards, so I know the work you put in them. I would love to win your stamps.

New Scrappy Moms Stamps Set - Designers Choice

Happy Sunday everyone! Today I have a card made with out brand new Scrappy Moms Stamps set - Designers Choice. This is a very special set that was created by our Design Team members. They submitted sentiments that they love and thought that you would enjoy using in your papercrafting! We will be doing sneak peeks all this week - so please visit them and leave some love! :)

This card was made using the saddle shoes from Nifty Fifties. I have had this cartridge for over a month and have been dying to use it. This sentiment just begged me to make a card with it - isn't it cute! I though it would be great for a birthday card for someone who has a good sense of humor - LOL!


We thought it would be fun to have a little contest for all of our WONDERFUL followers! We are challenging you to guess which Design Team member submitted which sentiment...think you can do it? Email your guesses to us a scrappymom.stamps@gmail.com. Each of the members below have at least one sentiment.

Homemade Christmas Blog Hop!

Merry Christmas and welcome! I'm sure you enjoyed Elsa's project, isn't she fabulous?!

Thank you for joining me today - I hope you like what I have to show you! These are my Christmas cards for this year. I made 2 sets of 10 different cards for a total of 20 handmade Christmas cards - whew!! :)



I used the same basic layout for all the cards - a mat of green cardstock with a white mat on top that I Cuttlebug-ed. I used the Snowflake, Distressed Stripe, Argyle, Swiss Dots, Polka Dots, and Script embossing folders by Cuttlebug and the Large Dots embossing folder by Quickutz. I use red Organdy ribbon from Joanns. Oh, a note about this ribbon - YUCK! I thought because it was sheer it would be easy to manipulate - boy, was I wrong! I would have picked a softer sheer ribbon if I had to do it again, this one was really stiff.
The Santa is cut from A Childs Year. The trees, mouse, baby Jesus, and presents are from Winter Frolic. The gingerbread man is from Just Because Cards. The Snowpeople and reindeer are from Winter Woodland. The angel and teddy bear are from Christmas Solutions, while the present the bear is leaning up against is from Sweethearts and stretched on my Gypsy. Wow was that lots of info!!!
It's hard to tell but I used Stickles or some kind of bling on each card - take a peek at some closer pictures to see if you can find it! LOL




The stamps are from Scrappy Moms Winter Wishes and The Charmed Life stamp sets. :)
I hope you enjoyed my cards! For blog candy I a giving away your choice of a Scrappy Moms Stamp set! Just leave me a comment for an chance to win - of course, if you like what you see here I'd love to have you join in and follow me. :)
Your next stop on the hop is the wonderful Amanda from My Scrap Obsession! Enjoy!

FINALLY - Some Halloween Pages! LOL

Happy Thursday, everyone!

I am finally getting to post these Halloween layouts I did for my kiddos! I am a "lazy" scrapper, when I have to do holiday layouts I find a design that will work for all three kids and duplicate it. I customize the colors, title, etc so each one is just different enough to be individual. At least I hope! LOL



I used the Scrappy Moms A Haunting We Will Go stamp set to make the little tags on the photos.
I hope you all enjoyed my "Kooky not Spooky" pages! Be sure to check back this Sunday when the Scrappy Moms Design Team will be intruducing a new Scrappy Moms Stamp set! :)
Have a wonderful day!

Card Cupids!

Happy Tuesday, all! :)

I just wanted to share a wonderful site with all of you - Card Cupids! The collect cards for need and/or ill children. The children will touch your heart, please take a minute to visit the blog and make a card or two if you can. :)

Scrappy Moms Stamps will be sponsoring a Card Cupids challenge in March - it should be lots of fun and, hopefully, raise a ton of cards for these little ones!

On a different note, I have been working on my Christmas cards for 4 days - hopefully, they will be done soon. I can't wait to share them with you! :)

Big {{{ HUGS }}}!
