Another Scrap Card~This One Is For Fall!

Made another card uisng up more scrap paper...yippee!! My friend Mary sent me the die cut flourishes awhile back, so I Cuttlebugged them with the swiss dots, used the Double Rectangle punch along one edge of the paper, stamped the flowers from the set Baroque Motifs in Kiwi Kiss and Tangerine Tango, popped them up, and thats about it!!

Funny Snowman Monkey

Cute girlie card for little ones for Christmas using the head of the Stampin'Up! Sock Monkey set. I had white glitter paper and punched out circles for his base, used a DS sock monkey paper, 3 sugar coated brads, some liquid applique on his hat, and a cuttlebug Embossing folder for background...pretty simple

Scrap Card SCS195

I made this card totally from scrap papers. I used the layout of Split Coast Stampers SC195. The snowman stamp is one I bought in a clearance set from HobbyLobby last year. I added the little "brrr" stamp as the card seemed so bare. It was good to use up some of the scrap I have, unfortunately I have lots more! Not a "fab" card, but hey, I got rid of some scrap!!!

Who is that "peeking" out from under the witch's hat? Why, it's Scaredy Cat! As soon as I saw these stamp sets in the preview of the new Holiday Mini, I new "they were mine"! This card was fast to make and fun, too! I stamped Pumpkin Pie on my Barely Banana moon, the DS paper is new, too, it is Autumn Vine...I love it! It is also available Oct 1st, as well as the Frightful Fence wheel is. Ihave shown photos of the sets I used, I like to make a copy of each set before I stick the images on the wood blocks, that way when I use several sets for one card, I know which set they go with right away!

All products used were Stampin'Up! The "recipe" follows. These sets will be available to purchase Oct 1st!

Stamp sets: Eat, Drink & Be Scarey, Halloween Frights Wheel: Frightful Fence, Round Punch 1", Ink: Basic Black, Tangerine Tango,Pumpkin Pie, Paper: DS Autumn Vine, Barely Banana, Tangerine Tango, Basic Black, Whisper White, Ribbon: Pumpkin Pie

Samples of New Core Paper

Our local scrapbook store just got in some of the new Core'dinations Core Color paper. Of course as soon as I walked in the door when I got homeI had to try it all out! I only bought a few colors, and now I have to go and get more tomorrow! I think I am going to LOVE this paper!

These are just some samples I did with the various Cuttlebug embossing folders. You will see some of these made into cards later this week! The web site for this paper is http://www.coredinations.com/ if you want to check it out!

Princess Kendall

I "stole" this photo off my daughter's blog www.loridianephotography.blogspot.com of my little granddaughter, she is so sweet I just had to share! I had babysat for her the previous school year and this summer. She would disappear on me and I would call out to her "Kendall what are you doing" and she would answer "Don't know gama"...oh-oh, I knew I had better follow up! She was playing with play dough one day at the kitchen table, her mother was upstairs so she trotted up there with her mother's purse, and her mother said "Kendall, where is your play dough?" She said "Not in your purse"...but guess where it was...yep, in her mother's purse!
