The inks were a mixture of a bunch from my stash-all different companies and many are no longer for sale.

The sentiment is Art Deco Birthday Greetings from Poppy Stamps.

That is all from me today. I hope that you join us over at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge this week. I cannot wait to see what you create!!

Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #540-A Color Challenge

 Hello friends!! There is another new Cupcake Inspiration Challenge this week. It is a color challenge.

Can you guess what colors I used for the challenge? Below is the badge for the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #540.

I created my card using die cuts that I had around. I started off by embossing a piece of Neenah White Cardstock using the Altenew Crystal Wall 3D Embossing Folder. 

The butterfly and flower are from My Favorite Things. I believe the leaves are from Altenew?

Please hop on over to the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge Blog and play with us this time!! I cannot wait to see what you create!!!

I want to thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

Week Two of the Pet Theme for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #539

 Hello friends!! I am popping in with a reminder that there is still time to play with us at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge. Remember that the two-week theme is PETS. 

Below is this weeks card that I created using a die from Simon Says Stamps.

I have had this die in my stash and I just HAD to use him!! 

I colored my pup in with Copic Markers and used a stencil underneath with oranges and greens to make him POP.

My sentiment and scallop frame are from my stash.

Spring 2022 Release at Kat Scrappiness Shop

*This post contains affiliate links used at no extra cost to you

Hello everyone!! Happy Saturday!! 

It is very wet and nasty here in Connecticut-the perfect time to sit and craft with a hot beverage.

I am posting two cards today in celebration of the new Kat Scrappiness Store's Spring Release!! 

For my first card, I used a mixture of old and new products.

The fun pattern paper is from the new Hop Into Easter 6" by 8" paper pack. They have some really cute papers using the colors purple, pink, green and teal, with some fabulous flower, polka dot and my favorite-gingham patterns!!

My stamped sentiment is from the new Kat Scrappiness Hippity Hoppity sentiment set and my adorable rabbit is from the new Kat Scrappiness Hippity Hoppity Bunnies. I colored the little bunny with Copic markers. Isn't it so cute?

The large egg was die cut using the Kat Scrappiness Rainbow Egg Dies. The little yellow jewels around my critter are the new Yellow Jewels embellishment.

For my second card, I created a simple shaker card.

Again, I used some of the pattern paper from the new Hop Into Easter 6" by 8" paper pack with the Kat Scrappiness Embossed Edge Rectangle Die to die cut both the white flower paper and my green frame. This die has become my new "go to" die when I want to die cut rectangles.

The bunny and sentiment are from the new KS Hippoty Hoppity Sentiments and KS Hippity Hoppity Bunnies Stamps. Again, I used Copic Markers to color in the little bunny.

I used the White AB Confetti Solid Mix and Pastel Love Sprinkles inside my shaker element and the new Yellow Jewels for the middle of my flower. 

All of these products are now available in the Kat Scrappiness Shop in the "New KS Products" section!!

In celebration of the new release, I have an additional card in Kat Scrappiness' Instagram Hop!!! Start HERE to begin the IG Hop and to learn all the rules to be entered into a drawing of random prize of $25 for the Kat Scrappiness Shop!! 

That is all from me today. I hope that you have a FABULOUS Saturday!!! Thank you for stopping by!!!

Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #539

Happy Monday everyone!! It is time for a NEW Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!!! The next two weeks is a theme challenge-PETS. Below is a simple card I created for this theme.

Below is the badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #539.

We have a fabulous sponsor for the two week challenge-NEWTON's NOOK. They are giving away a $25 prize to Newton's Nook Designs Shop to a random winner.

I did not have any Newton's Nook stamps so I used some pet stamps from Mama Elephant. 

This little panel has been around in my stash for a while now and I am so happy to be using it on a card. I layered the stamped square over some scrap pattern paper. 

I hope you join us this week with a fun creation. Hop on over to Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Blog to play. I cannot wait to see what you create!!!

My Turn on the Blog at Kat Scrappiness

Happy Easter!!

 Hello everyone!! I hope you all are having a fabulous Friday! We had an ice storm here. I thought we would get more snow but instead we got mostly freezing rain. The good thing about the bad weather is I got the day off from work since I work at a school!

Today I am on the blog for the Kat Scrappiness February 2022 Embellishment Release. I created an Easter shaker card using the new Spring Has Sprung Sprinkles.

I started off my card by die cutting the large bunny using the Kat Scrappiness Stitched Bunny Outline Dies from white cardstock. I shaded it in with yellow ink and added some black eyes with a gel pen. 

I then die cut the same bunny out of a piece of pattern paper from the Rainbow Confetti Slimline Paper. I adhered the yellow bunny onto a white, A2, top folding card, using the pattern paper as a guide. I used some foam adhesive and the Spring Has Sprung Sprinkles to create a shaker card.

I die cut the little rabbit from the Stitched Bunnies from pink cardstock and blended some pink ink across the top. I added some white dots and black eyes with gel pens. I adhered it next to my shaker bunny.

I added a die cut green Happy Easter that I had die cut with the Happy Easter w/Shadow Die and adhered it to my card. I added some white dots using a gel pen and covered my sentiment with Glossy Accents. My card was complete!!

I urge you to hop on over to the Kat Scrappiness Blog to see some other fabulous cards created with this new release!!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #538

Hello everyone!! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!! It is an extra long one for me and for that, I am thankful.

Today I am on the blog bringing you my card I created for this weeks Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #538. The theme is ANYTHING GOES-my favorite!!! 

I created a sympathy card using a background I had in my stash. This background inspired everything I used on this card.

Below is this weeks badge for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #538.

The bird, the flowers and the little bottle are all from The Greetery.

The sentiment was from my stash. I need to start separating them when I stamp them in a bunch so I know what company created them!!

I finished this off with some pink Crystal Drops. 

That is all from me today. I hope that you join us this week for the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #538. I cannot wait to see what you make!!!

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