A New Release at the Kat Scrappiness Shop

Hi friends!! 

Today I am popping in with some cards for the NEW RELEASE over at the Kat Scrappiness Shop! It is all about HALLOWEEN and SHAKER CARDS!!!

My first card is a Halloween card I created with the new Kat Scrappiness Creepy and Kooky Paper and the Creepy Crawly Dies.

I used some of the Kat Scrappiness Hocus Pocus sequins, the Pumpkinlicious sequin mix, Eye Candy Sprinkles and  the Eye See You Sprinkles for inside my card.

Isn't the spider just too cute?? I had so much fun creating this card!!! 

For my next project, I created a shaker tag with Heart Locket Shaker Card Kit at the Kat Scrappiness Store.

I covered the shaker in gold embossing powder and filled with the following colors of Kat Scrappiness Confetti Sprinkles: Ballerina Pink, Unicorn Pink, and Platinum.

I love the way this came out and cannot wait to use it on a gift for a friend!!

There is an Instagram Hop today in honor of the new release. The first stop is over at the Kat Scrappiness IG. Hop on over for what you could win when you comment on all the stops. I have a new creation with another new shaker set that I LOVE!!

Thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!!

Just a Reminder for the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #551

Hey Friends!! Just popping in with a reminder for the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #551. 

Of course I have a card!! This might be a hard one to guess but it is something that I do as well as cardmaking. 

It is all about FLOWER ARRANGING!!! Have you ever done this? I have created bouquets for events and make wreaths for the seasons. Do you think you can create something this week for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #551?

I used some stamps and dies from The Greetery. They make the most beautiful stamps. The background die is from Pinkfresh Studio.

The sentiment is from my stash. I have such a hard time embossing in white on black, no matter how hard I try. I had to fill in some of the "missing" white with a gel pen.

Does this inspire you to join us this week for the last week of Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #551? Hop on over to play!!!!

Thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

A New Challenge at Cupcake Inspirations

Hello friends!! I am popping in today with a new challenge from Cupcake Inspirations Challenges. 

This week is a THEME challenge. It is all about HOBBIES!!! Can you guess what hobby my card showcases?

Are you an artist-a painter to be exact?? Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #551 was a TON OF FUN to create!!

I used the new Colorado Craft Company's Paint Town stamps and dies. I received them last month and this was the PERFECT challenge to dig them out.

Isn't he cute? And I had to use blue as my paint color because it is one of my favorite colors!!!

I decided to blend a little "picture" that my critter "painted." And that sentiment? It sings to my SOUL!!!

Does this inspire you to play with us this time at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge? Hop on over and join us!! I cannot wait to see what you create!!

I want to thank you for stopping by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

You are Pawsome!!!

Hello Friends!!

Just popping in with a couple of cards that I created for the Pawsome Release at the Kat Scrappiness Shop. I have two cards over on the Kat Scrappiness Blog but made an extra two for my blog. These stamps, paper, dies and stencils are SO FUN to create with!!

The first card I created is a pet sympathy card. I used the new Kat Scrappiness Rainbow Bridge 4 x 6 stamps and some paw prints from the new Kat Scrappiness Paw Print Sprinkles.

I stamped the bridge image from the Rainbow Bridge Stamp Set and colored it in with a rainbow of Copic markers. I then used a gel pen to add some white dots for a "sparkle" effect.

I stamped the sentiment at the top and the dog on the bridge in black. I used white pencil to color in the wings and added some white gel pen dots. I covered the dog in Glossy Accents to give the dog some emphasis. The last thing I did was to add some Paw Print Sprinkles around the title and my card was done!!

For my second creation, I combined four new products on my card!!!

I used the new Pawsome Boy Paper Pad, the Pawsome Dogs Stamp Set, the Pawsome Dog Sentiments and the Dog Bone Sprinkles on this card. 

I colored in my pup using some colored pencils and then fussy cut him out. There are matching dies to both stamp sets but they did not come in on time. I layered him over some of the fun papers from the paper pad and placed him like he is "thinking" the sentiment.

Well, that is all from me today. Please head on over to the Kat Scrappiness Blog to see my other creations.

Tomorrow there will be an Instagram Hop. Be sure to hop on over to my IG Page for the list of participants!!!

Thank you for taking the time to stop by!! Have a FABULOUS day!!
