Scrappy Moms Sneak Peek #2 - Life is Good!

I hope that you all had a wonderful weekend!!  :)

This is my 2nd project for our April release...

I used a Lettering Delights SVG file from their Seasoned Summer set and MTC to create layers for my summer drink.  I added Stickles to the lemon slice, a couple of gems and a sentiment from our brad-new Beach Bums stamp set to completed the card. 

Here is the full Beach Bums set...

Be sure to visit the whole Scrappy Moms DT - including our very sweet and talented April Guest Designer, Brianna from Happy Scrapper - all this week for projects with our 2 new stamp sets.

Introducing Scrappy Moms Stamps new set - SUN KISSED

Happy Friday! Are you going to be out and about enjoying the soon-to-be summer weather this weekend? I know I am - before it hits 100 degrees here is sunny Arizona! :)

In honor of the change of seasons and the school year ending I decided to use our new Sun Kissed stamp set by Scrappy Moms Stamps to make baskets for my kiddos. Here is the one for my almost 3 yr old son and my oldest daughter. (I haven't gotten a book for my Kindergartener yet - bad mommy! LOL)



I cut the sun from the Banner Days SVG file by Lettering Delights but the sun from Doodle charms was my original idea. I used yellow Stickles in the "reflection" on the sun, just for a little sparkle. The sandcastle buckets w/shovels are from Target, as is the beach towel and sunscreen. For my little guy I added a blow-up beach ball, some new sunglasses and new SpongeBob swim trucks. For my daughter I added an inexpesive MP3 player and the final book of the Percy Jackson Serice by Rick Riodan (great books, if you haven't read them yet!).

I thought this would be a fun little way to celebrate the end of the school year and welcome in Summer! :)

Here is the full Sun Kissed set -


Hope you enjoyed my 1st Sun Kissed project! Be sure to stop by the rest of the DT to see their WONDERFUL creations. :)

Cristina's Blogaversery Hop!

Hello, everyone! Thank you for joining me today to celebrate the 1 year blogaversary of Crafting with Cristina! You should have arrived from the FABULOUS Liz's Paperloft, if not and you would like to go back and start from the beginning click HERE. :)

Cristina asked us to create a project inspired by one of her creations. For me, one of the biggest things that I have gotten from Cristina is a love for Lettering Delights SVG files. So I decided to use a newly purchased file to create something for you today....


I thought this little puppy was so cute, he just "begged" me to make him! LOL I purchased these thin magnetic snaps a while back to use on boxes. I figured this little box was as good as any project to give them a try. I put one between the flap of the box and the puppy's face. The second one is covered by a small square of paper on the inside of the box. The are hidden so as not to detract from the "cuteness" of the puppy. I am quite pleased with how they work, just thought I'd share. :)

I did a little doodling, added some Diamond Glaze to his nose and stamped a cute little saying (Amusing Animals from Scrappy Moms Stamps) on his tummy.

I hope you enjoyed my little project, the next stop on the hope is the very crafty Paula!
