 Hello Everyone! I am here with another project for Scrapping for Less and for this one I learned something! We always learned something new everyday! Did you know that you can get MINI Kits from Scrapping for Less from their past releases! I did not… LOL But now I know and I can pass this information on to all of you! ENJOY! The stamp set I am using was created exclusively for Scrapping for Less by Pink n Main! It is called Wild and Free and has the most adorable images to color in any medium of your choice! I started by stamping my sentiment and heat set with white fine detail embossing powder! I then stamped my image using my Black Tuxedo on both smooth white card stock and a piece of pattern paper from the mini kit… Colored using my alcohol markers and fussy cut my image out. From the image on the pattern paper I cut out the bill, so I could paper piece!  I set my background panel in place onto my standard A2 size card base and layered the burlap tag, included in the kit, on top. Grabbed a couple of the washi stickers and set my sentiment above the tag and placed my imaged above my sentiment!  Come see all the details below!

 Hello Everyone! I am here with another project for Scrapping for Less! Now you are going to see double here, but today I just have to showcase the Scrapping for Less Stamp Set that is available in the Banana Split level of the Flavor of the Month Card Kit for July 2018! This is the perfect stamp set to create many cards for any celebration! …yes there are still some kits available!!!! When I first saw this stamp set I immediately knew I wanted to use my Zig Real Brush Watercolor Markers! I started by stamping all my images using Versafine Black Ink onto Bristol Card stock and then I used my clear embossing powder to set the ink in place and give me a barrier for my watercoloring. I find this is easier for me to color my images since I am still learning how these full work and operate… LOL We are always in a learning process, right?  I dug around in my box of Zigs and pulled out all the colors that made me smile! …and then went to town laying down the color in an area of the image and then pulled it out with my aqua brush! For the flamingos, I decided to not use the aqua brush but rather two different colors blended together straight onto the card stock!! I really liked the look!  After my images were colored I pulled out some pattern paper from the Bo Bunny – Escape to Paradise Collection! Yes this is available in the Card Kit ALSO! …and a die from my stash to create a wave along the left side under my design panel! Popped it up onto my 4.25 in x 5.50 in top folding card base!

Today let’s feature Lawn Fawn! The stamp set is called ‘So Jelly’ and adding the ‘Ocean Wave Accents’ die set! So many options available for a creative day from this stamp and die set! So, let’s get started and celebrate under the sea!!!  I started with shades of blue cardstock from my scrap pile (ok box!) and used a frame die from my stash to cut create the shapes of the ocean. Next, I placed the Ocean Wave Accent Die around to get waves cut into my panels. I then stamped the images using my Black Tuxedo Memento Ink since I knew I was going to color these with my alcohol markers. I am getting a little bit better… I think, LOL!

I hope everyone is enjoying their day, but I wanted to stop in to show you another project for Scrapping for Less! Today I am featuring Sugar Pea Designs – Story Book Circus! Life is a Circus and what fun it is! We have a Lion, Bear and an Elephant to bring to life any celebration!… I started my project by creating my background using my Distress Oxides in Peacock Feathers and Broken China. I used my finger sponge daubers to lay down my color then sprayed my panel with water to get those colors moving. I found some wood grain paper in my stash and cut 1/2 inch strips and layered them at the bottom to create a wood floor.  I stamped my images with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored each image using my Prismacolored Pencils!! They are my favorite medium… Once they were done I fussy cut them out and got them ready to be the center stage on my background! The sentiment I chose was “Life is a Circus” and used a banner die from my stash. Set my panel on a standard A2 size side folding card base! We are now ready for the celebration! Pictures can only show so much, RIGHT? So click below and ENJOY the video... This way you can see all the creative details!

Always Remember... Be Inspired, Be Creative, ENJOY and SHARE what you create today! ~ Desiree  Hello Everyone! I am here with another project for Scrapping for Less! Stamping Bella – Bess the Butterfly?! This stamp set just makes you smile and be inspired to create! Bess will make any little girl smile on her special day… But I also knew she needed to be part of an event I was actively involved in and she really inspired me!  I decided to pull out my alcohol markers and have some fun. I am still getting comfortable coloring with this medium and I am determined to become better every time I use them! I stamped her in my Memento Black Ink and pulled out my colors. The packaging from Stamping Bella made it very easy to choose my color pallet! It was perfect… My sentiment was very simple… “Survivor” and was pulled from my stash. When stamping my sentiment, I used my VersaFine Black Ink to ensure a crisp result.
I decided to make my card base 4 1/4 in x 4 1/4 in instead of the normal A2 size. I accented her with a scalloped frame die in black card stock! But of course she needed some sparkle so crystal gems were in order! Pictures can only show so much, RIGHT? So click below and ENJOY the video... This way you can see all the creative details!

Always Remember... Be Inspired, Be Creative, ENJOY and SHARE what you create today! ~ Desiree  Hello Everyone! I am here with another project for Scrapping for Less! La-La Land Crafts, that name just makes you sing, right?! Ok so it makes me sign and I was in my craft room! LOL… The stamp set being featured is called ‘Spring Woodland Critters’, but even though the word Spring is there, they can be used for any season!! …and I still waiting for spring and the sun to arrive! I dug around my room and I pulled out my Zig Clean Real Brush Markers, brushed the dust off them and grabbed my aqua brush! I made sure I stamped in VersaFine Black Onyx in so I could emboss my images. I find this works best when I want to use a watercolor technique. It’s a control thing I am sure!  When I first saw this stamp set I imaged them on tags, and I LOVE MAKING TAGS!… So I pulled a die from my stash and cut away… When making a tag I like to create a stand-up tag, this way it can be displayed just like our cards! Yup just another way to decorate our area! Have I said how much I love tags? Pictures can only show so much, RIGHT? So click below and ENJOY the video...
