Scrappy Mom's Terrific Tuesday Challenge!!

Hey Everyone!!!

I want to first thank you all for the get well wishes....they truly mean a lot.  I'm still a bit under the weather and now the hubby is catching it so I've been taking care of him as well.  I'm sorry that I've been majorly MIA recently.  I hope to be back to some type of schedule soon.

As you know, Scrappy Mom's has released another FABULOUS set called Happily Ever After.  Its perfect for any princess :)  This is the first time that I'll be showcasing it.  The Scrappy Mom Sista's have been showing off the set, so be sure to check out their blogs by clicking on their name in the right sidebar.  


For today's Terrific Tuesday Challenge, we had to use the Once Upon A Princess Cartridge.  My project is very simply and doesn't use the cartridge much.  I came up with a little gift box.  Perfect for perhaps a birthday party as thank you gifts to the princess who joined the party.  I put in the box a bracelet, just to give you an idea.  




The idea for the box came from Splitcoast Stampers.  Hope you guys enjoyed it! Be sure to check out the other great project at the Scrappy Mom Blog by clicking on the button on the right sidebar. 

Supplies: 
*Recollections Cardstock
*$1 Store Ribbon
*Big Shot
*Stampin' UP! Top Note Die
*Once Upon A Princess Cartridge
*Happily Ever After Stamp Set "If the Crown Tiara Fits..." & the tiara image
*Chalk Ink

Scrappy Mom Blog Hop

Hey everyone! Welcome to the scrappy mom's blog hop. You should have arrived here from Momo's Blog. If not, be sure to start out at the Scrappy Mom's blog by clicking on the button on the right sidebar. Unfortunately, I do not have a project to share today.

I will try to have a project posted by tonight, but can't make any promises. Sorry everyone!! Be sure to check out the other Scrappy Mom sista's as their projects are Awesome!!!

Terrific Tuesday Challenge for Scrappy Mom's!

Hey Everyone!!

I hope that you all had a great weekend and a Happy Easter!  I'm sorry that I've been Totally MIA this past week.  We have been absolutely Swamped at work and I randomly decided to change my craft corner around pretty drastically.  Its taken me forever to organize it and get everything where it needs to be to my liking.  My hubby is also going to be working on some shelves to put within my Expedite to create more space within each cube.  So the organize has been keeping me pretty busy.  I'll be sure to post pictures soon! 

Any ways.....Its Terrific Tuesday Challenge time!!!  This weeks challenge was to use the Paisley Cricut Cartridge.  As I've mentioned, my hubby recently let me go on a Major Stampin' Up! shopping spree and I'm still getting around to using everything.  So today, I decided to stray from the card.  I've made a little basket.  You can put candy and little goodies in it.  Its a project that's features within the Ideas & Catalogue book.  So, here is my project.  Hope you all enjoy it!  Also, don't forget to check out my fantastic Scrappy Mom Sister's projects by click on their name in the right sidebar and also join in on the challenge at the Scrappy Mom's Blog (simply click on the Scrappy Mom's Design Team button)

Scrappy Mom's Sneak Peak #1

Hey Everyone!!

Scrappy Mom's has done it yet again.....they haven't come out with just 1 new stamp set but 2!! Special Delivery and All in the Family are a MUST have!  Check them out below: 


  
Both stamp sets are perfect for cards, scrapbooks, and various projects!  

Today, I decided to use the "All in the Family!" Stamp set. Here is my card below: 


Cookies and Milk are the PERFECT combination......they are "So Happy Together!", well at least in my tummy they are :)  
The milk carton is from Smiley Card Cartridge and the chocolate chip cookies are from From My Kitchen.  I added glossy accents to the chocolate chips to make them look melted and to the spilled milk. 

Hope you guys enjoyed my card! Be sure to check out the great creations made by my Scrappy Mom Sista's by clicking on their name in the right sidebar.  Also, be sure to check out our guest designer for this weeks sneak peaks: Julie from www.cricutchick.blogspot.com
