Hello Everyone!

​It's July! What is a summer activity you enjoy?

Lots of folks love summer camping and kids love going to camp. I spent 3 summers of my career life as a summer camp director at a girl's week long resident camp...it was hard work but yet super satisfying. I loved seeing the girls (most of them were city girls) being exposed to nature, hiking, and the outdoors.

We have a great kit for you this month. All about camping and the outdoors! So grab your computer, a beverage, maybe go out on your back porch (so you are outdoors) and hop along and view the most wonderful inspiration from our Design Team and guest designers!

You can purchase your kit from our subscription page...links for 1 off purchases are in the paragraph to the left of the slider on that page.

Here are three cards I made from the kit!  Stop by my YouTube Channel to see more!

​Curious to see what you will get in your Scrapping for Less Flavor of the Month Card Kit for July 2019! Just check out the photos below!

​Hop along and see the inspiration the Design Team and Guest Designers have for you today!

Hello Everyone!

Where is your most favorite place in the world?

Well other than Ireland (oh how I love that country...another story for another day) my favorite place would be the beach and the ocean. I love and am fascinated by anything and everything that has to do with sand and saltwater! So let's dive deep and see if we can spot any Under the Sea babies in that wonderful blue ocean water.

​Dive on through the hop and SEA what our fabulous designers brought to the surface for you! Make sure you visit the Scrapping for Less website to grab your kit of "Under the Sea Babies" and you too can get lost in an ocean of cards. *Make sure to enter the Rafflecopter for a chance to win a prize!

Hello Everyone1

Today is the day we get to see, first hand, all the crafty goodies inside the Flavor of the Month Card Kit by Scrapping for Less!  So lets not wait any longer...

myth
/miTH/
noun
noun: myth; plural noun: myths
a traditional story, especially one concerning the early history of a people or explaining some natural or social phenomenon, and typically involving supernatural beings or events.

leg·end
/ˈlejənd/
noun
noun: legend; plural noun: legends
a traditional story sometimes popularly regarded as historical but unauthenticated.

​Good Morning all my Crafty Friends! For our introductory paragraph how about a history lesson on the 4 elements of our kit? As we delve into Myths and Legends this month let’s take a closer look at these creatures.

​According to Wikipedia on Nessie:

n Scottish folklore, the Loch Ness Monster or Nessie is a creature said to inhabit Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands. It is often described as large in size with a long neck and one or more humps protruding from the water. Popular interest and belief in the creature has varied since it was brought to worldwide attention in 1933. Evidence of its existence is anecdotal, with a few disputed photographs and sonar readings.
The scientific community regards the Loch Ness Monster as a phenomenon without biological basis, explaining sightings as hoaxes, wishful thinking, and the mis-identification of mundane objects.[2]

​According to the Ancient History Encyclopedia on the legendary Pegasus:

Pegasus (or Pegasos) is a winged-horse from Greek mythology which was fathered by Poseidon and was born from the severed neck of the gorgon Medusa, slain by Perseus.

​According to fiveminutehistory.com on Fairies:

Most of us can’t see fairies. They live in a parallel universe called the “realm of the fey.”
According to legend, fairies went into hiding to avoid us because … well, we invaded their lands, so what else could they do?

As we modernized the world with electricity, built roads and cities, and cut down trees, the fairies were forced to “go underground” and hide in caves, burrows, underwater fortresses, and finally into the spirit world.

​According to Wikipedia on Gnomes:

A gnome /noʊm/[1] is a diminutive spirit in Renaissance magic and alchemy, first introduced by Paracelsus in the 16th century and later adopted by more recent authors including those of modern fantasy literature. Its characteristics have been reinterpreted to suit the needs of various story tellers, but it is typically said to be a small humanoid that lives underground.[2]

​Now that we know their origins…let’s get on to some crafty goodness with these wonderful creatures: Our Myths and Legends blog hop begins at the Scrapping for Less blog. So make sure you start there and ENJOY!

Hello Everyone!

It’s Desiree here with another design team project for Scrapping for Less!   Today I want to show coloring a stamp image using PrismaColor Pencils!  You all know this is my medium of choice when I color ANY image, LOL…  For this image I wanted to show my prismacolor pencils some love, yes, I have been neglecting them, shame on me!

​The stamp set I am going to use is called Raccoon Rascals and it is by Newton’s Nook! So, let’s get comfortable and start coloring!

I started my project by stamping my images using a very pale grey dye ink.  I wanted to color my image to be a no-line color design.

​The paper I chose to use is my Mixed Media Toned Grey by Strathmore.  It is perfect for color pencil mediums.  Once my image was colored and grabbed my standard A2 size card base in desert storm and stamped another image inside with more sentiments.

I popped my colored panel up using doubled sided foam and we have a fun and cute birthday card for anyone!

Don’t forget to join the Scrapping for Less Show and Share Group – COME AND SHARE YOUR WORK! 

​Come see just how quick and easy this project is, and how it is a great stash buster!
