I just had to use this little guy from Create-a-Critter! I've been dying to use him and just couldn't figure out what kind of card he fits with... Then it came to me - HALLOWEEN! He comes this his own mask and everything. LOL
The sentiment is from the Scrappy Moms Stamps A Haunting We Will Go stamp set. And I used my white paint pen to do the doodling. LOL
This is also my entry into Christina's Critter Challenge. Check out the cute animals! :)
Hope you enjoyed seeing him as much as I did making him! :)
My dad's birthday is this week and the kiddo's and I decided to make him a sailboat card - thanks for the inspiration Joanna!
The sailboat (cut at 3.25") and waves (cut at 4" fit to length) are from Life's a Beach and the tag is from Once Upon a Princess. "Grandpa" is from For The Boys stamp set by Scrappy Moms Stamps.
Now, we just need to figure out what to get for a gift - LOL. :)
Happy weekend, everyone! I decided to participate in the Mojo Monday Challenge #149. Here is the sketch itself...
And here is my version...
All of the circles from the Mini Monogram Cricut Cartridge, including the scalloped circle card base that I welded together in the Cricut Design Studio. The sentiment tag is from the Once Upon a Princess cart and the caldron is from Mini Monsters. The sentiment is from the A Haunting We Will Go stamp set by Scrappy Moms Stamps. I added stickles on the potion/bubbles and used a paint pen to doodle around the shape.
I just love this little pumpkin cut from Mini Monsters and couldn't wait any longer to make a card with him!
This little guy is cut at 2" and the sentiment is from our new A Haunting We Will Go stamp set from Scrappy Moms Stamps. I used the Fiskars Upper Crest border punch on the black mat piece.
Good day, everyone! Today I have a card made with one of our soon to be released stamp sets called, "For the Boys"!
This was such a fast and easy card - yay! The red background is embossed with the Destressed Stripes folder by cuttlebug. The border punch is Fiskar's Upper Crest and I just used a thin strip of white paper instead of a ribbon. The cards were from an old deck that I confiscated. (shhh, don't tell)
The design team will be make more projects this week and next to show you. :) For today you can also visit Momo and Joanna for a few more creations. :)
Oh, and I have a poll for all you... We are trying to decide whether or not to upload the link to purchase the Halloween stamps and For the Boys now (a pre-order senario) or wait until we have a shipment of stamps in hand. Let us know what you would like us to do.
Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge for this week is a holiday themed card using Wild Card. Unfortunately, I don't have Wild Card or any other holiday cartridges except Mini Monsters - so I made a Halloween card.
The toad and broomstick are from Mini Monster and cut at 2" and 3.5" respectively. The sign post is from Everyday Paper Dolls - I used the DS for this one to make sure it was wide enough for my stamp. The sentiment stamp is the SNEAK PEEK - it is one of our upcoming Scrappy Moms Stamps sets. We will be doing more sneaks in the comming weeks - stay tuned! :)
Oh, for some reason it doesn't show in the picture but the yellow rectangle is matted with purple - you can really see it in person, weird! LOL
Hope you enjoyed your visit!
Hello, everyone! Thank you for joining me from the fabulous Cricut Me That with Abbie!
Here is my picnic project for the day...
I used Sweethearts for the tree and bike, the picnic basket and the clouds are from Everyday Paper Dolls, and I free-handed the blanket. The sentiment is from our Scrappy Moms Sweet Somethings stamp set.
Now onto the CANDY! I am giving away a Fiskars Apron Lace edge punch and a pair of my favorite Hobby Lobby scissors! Please leave me a comment with a way to contact you for a chance to win. If you like what you see here I'd love for you to join in and follow me! :)

Today I wanted to share this card I made for my Anniversary (shhhhh - don't tell my husband it's posted here). I noticed that I tend to use a similar layout on my cards - it's time to break out of the mold! Ok, so moving the stamp to the top isn't drastic but hey, baby steps, right? :)
The couple is from Sweethearts and cut at 3.25", the hearts are also from Sweetheart done on the DS - cut at approximatly .75" and .5". I used the Distressed Stripes embossing folder from Cuttlebug and the sentiment is from our Scrappy Moms Sweet Somethings stamp set.
I also wanted to announce that I will be participating in a blog hop this Saturday July 10th. Stay tuned for more info...
Hello, hello! I am so excited about todays post!! We are going to be releasing a new stamp set soon and I'm going to give you a sneak peek. Here is a card I made with one of the saying....
Enlarge the picture for more detail! The shoes are from Forever Young cut at 2.75" and diamond glazed. I used the Distressed Stripes Cuttlebug embossing folder for the background and the ribbon is from Hobby Lobby (in the wedding dept - they have it in lots of colors!).
I'm not even going to share the name of the new set yet....keep watching for more sneak peaks this week here and on Tammy's blog - Scrappy Critters!
Our guest Designer of the Day today is Momo from Made by Momo. Here is a sneak peek of her projects (yes, plural) using our Scrappy Moms Amusing Animals stamp set...
You can see her full project on her blog HERE - trust me you'll be glad you did! Momo - Thank you so much for helping us showcase our Amusing Animal stamps!! :)
Here is an easel card that I made today. I have been dying to use this little dinosaur - he's so cute. I'm not in love with the patterned paper that I used but I have a limited time to craft (called "nap time") and I wanted to get the project done. LOL
I used the Devine Swirls Cuttlebug Embossing folder for the background, the cuts are all from Create A Critter, and the sentiment is from our new Scrappy Moms Stamps Amusing Animal set.
Poor Momo and Nicole are still waiting on stamps! :( We will get their respective projects up as soon as they get them - I PROMISE!
So for today I have made a card with one of my favorite saying from this set. I hope you like it...
Once again I tried to use a cartridge other than CAC (just to show the versatility) - all the cut images on this card are cut from Just Because Cards. I made the shadow (red) of the label with the DS but the rest are cut straight from the cart. The honey pot was cut at 7.25", the bees at 1.5" and the label (blue) is 5.25". I used the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots (on the cream) and the Quickutz Polka Dots (on the blue) embossing folders. I stickled the word honey, the bee's wings and added a "honey" drip. :)
AND a bonus for me... I followed Emma's Throwback Thursday Challange for this week. :)
Unfortuately, Momo - didn't recieve her stamps in time to do a project today so we are pushing back our guest bloggers a day. Wow - over a week shipping time, not great USPS! LOL
Anyhow, I have made another card for you today using Paper Doll Dress Up for the main image. (Ok, I admit it, the sun is from CAC - it is the cutest one I have.)
We are celebrating the Grand Opening of Scrappy Moms Stamps this week with 3 guest bloggers! They will show you some creations they have made using our new Amusing Animal stamp set. :)
Today I am the "Designer of the Day" and Tammy will show her creation tomorrow. Then we will be joined on Wednesday by Momo from Made by Momo - Thursday by Lauren of Lauren's Creative - and on Friday by Nicole from Canadian Nickel Scrap'n! We are so excited to have these TALENTED ladies join us in showcasing our new stamps - THANK YOU SO MUCH!
So, now onto my project...
I wanted to use something other than Create a Critter to show that there are stamps on this set that can be used for much more than just animal phrases. I cut the girl from Forever Young and the car from Locker Talk. I love how they turned out together! :)
