Scrapbook Stamp Society- Fall Easel Card

Today is my turn to share something at Scrapbook Stamp Society. I decided to make a Fall easel card.

You know, sometimes things just don't work out the way you had in mind. This is one of those cards. I tried everything to have the image up at the top somewhere, but it just didn't work out any which way I set her. So, in the end she is on the bottom of the card, but trust me, it looks better this way. I love this image too! This little cutie is called "Welcome Fall" IMG686.
Anyway's, I hope you have a fun and happy crafty day!
Hugs,
Sandy.

The embossing came from a folder called Counture Creations, Tied Together. The sentiment is one of Verve Stamps called Bountiful Harvest. I used a Martha Steward punch called Arched Lattice.

Hello Crafting Friends,

Today I would like to share a Halloween treat bag that I made for my post at Scrapbook Stamp Society! Seeing as Halloween is right around the corner, I thought this would be a fun little project to make. I had never made a treat bag before.

I used the delightful image Scan0008. Love this image! So perfect and fun for Halloween! I also used Spellbinders Decorative Labels Eight, and Martha Stewart Drippy Goo Punch on this treat bag. For the decorating of the bag, I used Impression Obsession DIE115-J, Spider and Web. Tonic Studio Essentials, Happy Halloween die. I also used Memory Box Batty Border to add a few bats on the tree, which is probably not so noticeable, but they are there. ;)

Anyway, that's it for today!
I hope you are having a fabulous crafty week!
Hugs, and happy crafting!
Sandy.

I thought I would start early and make a little something to put money in to give to my daughter for Christmas. Kind of help spruce up the fact that I am giving her money. I will probably stick another little gift in it as well. You can find the image here: Button Betty! I used a Christmas Sizzixs, Framelits W/Stamps for the sentiment on the tag. I got it on clearance. :) I made the box using Memory Box, We R Gift Box Punch. I got it last Christmas. I knew it would come in handy! :)

Hope you have a great day!

The image I used here is called Fifi and Bubbles. One of my Besties teamies did a fabulous job using this image. It really is a cute image!
I used Spellbinders, Floral Ovals for the bathroom mirror. The only other thing I used besides my Copics, was JustRite Clear, Market Place Alphabet stamps for the towel engraving the initials. The funny thing is... these initials mark mine and my husbands first names, but also are my Bestie and her husbands initials in England. Small world, lol.
Come on over to My Besties International Challenge and come join in on the fun!
Hope to see you there! :)

I have to say, I love these nautical images of Sherri's. The Fluffies have always been one of my favorites, but these nautical images are getting to be right up there with them. They are so much fun, and perfect images for the summer especially.
This image is, IMG661. I bought her especially for this challenge. She just spoke to me, if you know what I mean. Some images inspire you more then others. Images you just can't wait to get your hands on and start coloring, lol. That's how I felt when I saw her! I just couldn't wait to color her.

Anyway, I hope you come join us this month and show us your fabulous creations!

There are great prizes to be had for both DT, and (Non) DT winners.

This is one of Sherri Baldy's "Fluffy" Besties, IMG206. Love her!!!! I made this card for my sister for her birthday. She is a shopaholic in a half, lol. The funny thing is, my sister and her youngest daughter only have two days apart between their birthdays, so I usually only send one card for the both of them. Her youngest daughter said, "boy is this sentiment correct. If they don't shop JC Penny's then they don't know where to shop", LOL. Things that kids say sometimes are too funny!

Anyway, I hope you come participate!

Color It Create It Show It Off

Hey there, it's that time again to be sharing a card that I made for Color It Create It show It Off. It is always Anything Goes, but soon there will be an "option theme" to the challenge too.

This little cutie is IMG831. I just love this image! I had a hard time deciding what I wanted to do with her. I knew I wanted a fold card, but I wasn't quite sure what one until I saw this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkwyDPJgPOY
I didn't put it on the computer like she did, but it was really easy to follow along anway.
The paper is from My Minds Eye- Lost & Found called, Bush "Sweet" Bouquet Paper. The back of this pink checkered paper has little tiny flowers, hence the name. I have a stamp set I use quite often. It is Fiskars, Hello Fabulous. The image shape is from Spellbinders, Labels Ten. I colored her with my Copics then inked around the image with Tim Holtz, Vintage Photo. I used my white gel pen to put faux stitches around the border frame of the image and that basically is it!

I hope you come and play along with us for June!
Hugs,and happy crafting!
Sandy.

Scrapbook Stamp Society- Peek A Boo

Hi there,

It's my turn to share something I made over at Scrapbook Stamp Society. I decided to use this darling girl, Img963.
I just think she is absolutely adorable.

 For this card, I just made a regular card like I normally would. It's a 5x5 card base. Then I just added a second piece of paper, scored it, then used double sided tape to join the two pieces together. I had seen cards like this made, but never have found a pattern for it, so I basically had to figure it out. It really was a fun card to make. The front of the card base, I stamped a sentiment, but when you open up the card, I then have all the room in the world to be able to write what ever I want to say to the person I am giving it too. I think that's kind of clever also.
Anyway, go and check out Scrapbook Stamp Society. It gives good tips from time to time which is very useful.
Hugs, and happy crafting!
Sandy.
