All That Scraps January Preview

Hello!  Back today to share another preview from All That Scraps January release.  I have 2 fun baby cards from Lil Lads and Lolitas to share today.

This is Baby Lilith!  When I first saw these, I thought they were so fun and cute!  The sentiment is from the Baby Cakes set and is stamped on a baby bottle die.

Every time I see her face, it makes me giggle.

Here is Baby Frankie.  I used a similar layout.  The sentiment is from Baby Cakes as well.  He looks a little sleep deprived, doesn't he?  Kind of how my kids look when they are past their bedtimes!  Which reminds me that they are all planning to stay up til midnight tonight for New Year's.  We'll see how that goes.

Isn't this banner adorable?  It's from Sanrio's FB page!  Happy New Year everyone!    

Oh, please check out All That Scraps for more previews!  There are 2 more cute Lil Lads and Lolitas!

Thanks for reading!

All That Scraps December Preview -- Sweet November

Hello!  I know, I've been so awful these past few days not leaving any comments!  But I'm trying to get back on track.  The holiday season is so busy isn't it?  Trying to cram some last minute gifts and realizing that school gets out before Christmas so I need to do all that first.  And where is the sun these days?  Today was so dark and gloomy.  I didn't see the sun at all!  Makes me want to crawl back into bed. 

I do have a card to share! 

This is Love Birds from Sweet November Stamps.  Aren't they adorable?!  They will be available December 6th at All That Scraps.

You can check out the rest of the DT's creations too over HERE.

Thanks for reading!

All That Scraps December Preview -- Futuristic

Hi!  Back again with a preview of the December release at All That Scraps.  Today is a preview of Mashi's Muffins and Futuristic stamps.

This card features Australian Kellita from the Futuristic line.  Isn't her koala friend sweet?  I added a small sentiment from The Meoples' Love is in the Air set and used the new Stackables die. Kept this pretty simple too.  Coloring her top with the small flowers took me a while.  I tried hard not to go outside the lines!

Please hop over to the ATS blog to see the rest of the DT's creations! 

Thanks for visiting!

All That Scraps December Preview -- CC Designs

All That Scraps November Preview

Hello!  Wow, I almost lost track of the days and time, and didn't realize I have something to post again.  This is a special All That Scraps Preview of a new stamp set called Little Birdies.  The whole set is just so cute and comes with so many images.  I didn't know which to pick!

I picked 2 little birdies from the set.  There are 4 total and there are also matching dies to the birds so cutting is easy.  The little fountain and sentiment are part of the set.  I also used this amazing tree die!  I love the tree!  It also comes with those cute leaves!  Behind the tree is the four seasons fence die.  I also used the grass border die.

Awww, aren't they cute?!  I love these birds!

Please be sure to check out the rest of the creations from the DT HERE.  This set will be available on the 15th.

Thanks for reading and for your wonderfully, encouraging comments! 

All That Scraps November Preview Day 4

Hello!  Last day of previews for All That Scraps!  Today I have a different kind of stamp and card to share.  I think mostly I like to make cutesy stuff but every so often I wanna try coloring something different.

So here is Jackie Frost.  I really like her wings!  The sentiment is from Winter Chuckles.

A close up.  I added some stickles to the snowflake and the swirls from her mouth but of course it's hard to see!

Anyway, by the time this post goes live we'll be Trick or Treating with the kiddies somewhere.  Hope it doesn't rain!  Halloween is always such a busy time for the kiddies especially when it lands on a school night.  Hmmm, could someone make it a holiday?  Actually the next day has to be a holiday.  Hope you're all having a fun and safe Halloween!

Thanks for reading!

All That Scraps November Preview Day 2

Hello!  Today All That Scraps is previewing Mashi's Muffins stamps.  Please head over to the blog to see the fun Mashi stamps!

I wanted to share a card featuring CC Designs Dress Up Snowman which is part of the November release as well.

Are these guys super cute?  I stamped the snowman twice and cut them out.  They come with fun little dress up winter clothes!  There is also a die to cut the snowman out if you don't like fussy cutting.  The wooden fence is a die cut called The Four Seasons Fence which will also be available on release day, November 1st.  In the corner is the same snowflake die and sentiment that I used on my card from yesterday's post.

Love the little Doodlebug paper in the back! 

That is all for today!  Thanks for reading!

All That Scraps November Preview Day 1

Hello!  So excited to bring you today's previews of CC Designs from All That Scraps.  Every month I am totally amazed at the releases and think I am so lucky to get to play with these stamps! 

I love this image!  How cute are they?  This is called Sisters but they could represent any two girls.  So mine are best friends.  I actually had to paper piece the little green dress because I didn't like how I had it colored the first time.  It has been so hot and humid here so I was coloring with the fan on and pointed towards me but it was also drying out my Copic coloring too quickly and so the colors were not blending nicely.  So I had to move the fan and try again and get all sweaty.  Paper is from the Doodlebug.  Love their paper pads!  The sentiment is from Winter Chuckles and the snowflake is a new die from this release as well.  

A little closeup of the BFFs.

No large tsunami waves for us.  Everything turned out okay.  Traffic looked horrendous on TV though and roads were closed everywhere.  They were advising people to leave their cars and to walk to higher ground!  We didn't have much notice for this tsunami warning.  Thank goodness we were all home already.

Please check out the ATS blog for more cuteness!  Thanks for reading!

All That Scraps October Preview -- Day 4

Hello!  Are you enjoying the previews so far?  Today I am back with All That Scraps preview on Sweet November Stamps. 

This is Felicity.  I chose to do a simple card with her plus I am a little limited with my die cutting choices these days as I broke my Big Shot.  Yeah, I'll tell you more about that on a different day.  Though maybe I shouldn't say I broke it, rather it broke on me.  The sentiment was heat embossed onto vellum and is from Scripted Greetings Fanciful Christmas.

Added lots of stickles to her wings and halo.  She is a sweet image!  There are 2 others from Sweet November Stamps so hop on over to All That Scraps' blog to check them out.

Thanks for reading!

All That Scraps October Preview -- Day 3

Hi!  Today, All That Scraps is previewing Mashi's Muffins.  These stamps are always fun!

This is Elfen.  I colored her bright!  I really love her little gingerbread guy -- such a cutie!  The sentiment is from Funny Xmas and I added a holly and berry diecut.  I had this Christmas paper with lots of Elves from last year.  I knew it would come in handy one day/year.  Haha. 

Hope you've been enjoying the previews so far.  There is more to see over at All That Scraps, so please hop over there.

Thanks for reading!

 

All That Scraps October Preview -- Day 2

Hello!  It's another day of previews over at All That Scraps!  I love the October release!  The stamps are sooooo cute! 

This cutie is Fa la la la Emma.  I love this image of her singing and her wings and halo.  So sweet!  The background is Joy Music and I heat embossed that in white onto kraft.  I love the look of white on kraft.  The sentiment is from Scripted Greetings Fanciful Christmas and was also heat embossed in white but onto vellum.  I love that look too.  I also used the holly and berry die.  I added glossy accents to the berries so they are a bit shiny.  I created all my mats with my Perfect Layers rulers.

A little close up of Emma.  Lots of stickles on her wings and her dress and halo. 

I plan on entering this into Moxie Fab World's World Card Making Day Week (Christmas and/or Season's Greetings).  Hopefully I'll remember to once this post goes up.

Thanks for reading!

All That Scraps October Preview -- Day 1

Hi again!  So excited to start previews for All That Scraps October release!  This release is so incredibly cute.  I don't know how you'll resist these cute stamps! 

These little guys are called Meoples and this set is called No Peeking.  Aren't they super cute!  I love the Gingerbread Man and the reindeer especially.  They are the perfect size to make little to/from tags for Christmas!  Don't they look so happy?  They make me smile.  The sentiment is just one of many in the Scripted Greetings Fanciful Christmas set which is also being released in October.  There are so many wonderful sentiments in this set that can be used alone or to complement an image.

Please check out the ATS blog for more cuteness!  Trust me, you'll want to see the other cute images being previewed today!

Thanks for reading!

All That Scraps September Release Preview -- Day 3

Hi!  Today, All That Scraps is previewing cute Sweet November stamps!  These are perfect for Halloween!  

I made my card using Lil Boo and Scary Larry.  Scary Larry is too cute!  Lil Boo is transparent cause he's a ghost!  I stamped him on some vellum paper that I had just bought the same day as these cute Doodlebug papers.  I added a banner using the Mini Banners die and heat embossed the sentiment from Down on the Farm Sayings.

Here's a little close up.  Scary Larry is paper pieced.  After I stamped Lil Boo onto vellum I traced him with my Copic multiliner pen so the lines would be more defined.  

Just wanted to share something I thought was kind of neat also.  After I stamped and trace him like above, I flipped it over like below.

And I thought that looked pretty cool too!  A reverse image!  Just would need a bit of tracing to stand out more.

Please hop over to All That Scraps blog to also see what some of the other DT members have created.  I am sure you won't be disappointed. 

Hope you've been enjoying the previews!  Thanks for reading!

************

Hello!  I am back with All That Scraps September release preview of one of the new Mashi's Muffins stamps.  This is my first Mashi's Muffins and she was lots of fun to color!

Here is Farmer Fran!  I love the little piggy too!  He is so cute!  I added some grey spots on his back.  I used the hay bale die to create this little scene.  Lots of hay cutting but I love the added details.  Those 2 red pieces on either side of the sentiment is the new mini banner die.  The banners are so cute!  I thought I'd use them a little differently.  The sentiment is from Down on the Farm Sayings.

Here's a little close up.  I was running low on some of my Copic colors for her hair and didn't realize it til it started not blending as nicely.  I tried to save her hair!  Added some dots and highlights with my white gel pen too.

Please head over to All That Scraps blog to check out the DT's awesome projects and get a peak and what is being released soon!

CC Designs July Previews Day 1

Hello!  Welcome to Day 1 of previews for CC Designs.  The July release will be available July 4th, 9 PM EST.  I have 2 cards to share today. 

This cutie is Watermelon Abigail.  The sentiment is from AmyR Sweet Summer Sentiments.  Paper is from Lawn Fawn.

Here is a close up.  We just got a huge watermelon from our local supermarket the other day.  And the best thing was that it was free!  Super sweet and yummy.

My second card features Pinwheel Birgitta and sentiment from AmyR Sweet Summer Sentiments.  It looks pretty 4th of July-ish too.

Here's a close up.  I'm entering this in Kitty Bee Designs Aloha Friday Challenge #2 too!  This will be my second entry.  Amazing, right?  I hardly play challenges these days but it fits with their Red, White & Blue challenge.

Wow, I can't believe tomorrow is July!  So fast!

Thanks so much for reading!

All That Scraps June Preview -- Tickled Pink

Hello!  Today's the last day of previews at All That Scraps.  We're sharing our creations using Tickled Pink's Lil Lads and Lolitas.  The June release will be available Thursday.

Here's my card featuring Umbrella Lilith and Sunny Sentiments.  I kind of like how this card came out.  I used some older Echo Park papers and used a couple of scraps too.  I used my Perfect Layers rulers to create the mats for my leftover scraps of paper.

Here's a close up.  I think I like how the sand turned out too.  And she's a pretty cool image that I had fun coloring up.

So we said good bye to my daughter today.  She is at the airport waiting for her flight to the east coast.  Her 2 younger brothers were so sad!  My kids are close like best friends especially my older two.  One of my boys said in the car that now he has no one to talk to and play with.  Hello, your younger brother is sitting right next to you and what am I?  I can play and talk too!  But I know what he means.  Even though we still have our 2 boys, it's awfully quiet in our house now. 

Thanks so much for reading!
