Adorable, right?!?!

For my first project I'm showcasing the Ticket to Adventure Stamp Set.  I just recently got my hands on the Lawn Fawn "Life is Good" Stamp Set and knew that I wanted to use it.  So here is what I created below: 




I LOVE how this card turned out!!  The yellow paper is the perfect fit too with the sun-rays.  Its from the Lawn Fawn "Hello Sunshine" 6x6" paper pad.  

Hope you guys enjoyed this card.  Be sure to check out the other amazingly talented ladies on the design team by clicking on their name in the right side-bar.

Scrappy Moms Terrific Tuesday Challenge - Amusing Animals

Hello Everyone and Happy Tuesday!!  We are still in the middle of our move so this post will be short and sweet :)

Scrappy Moms Stamp is having their FOUR YEAR ANNIVERSARY!! Its been an awesome 4 years with TONS of amazing stamp sets released by the fabulous owners, Mel & Tammy!

If your new to our challenge at Scrappy Moms -- A HUGE Welcome goes out to you!  If you haven't joined us before, please join in on the fun!  TTC, as we like to call it for short, happens on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month.  Be sure to check out the Scrappy Moms Blog to see the amazing projects created by the design team and to enter in the challenge for your chance to win a Scrappy Moms Stamp set of your choice!

With it being the 4 Year Anniversary of Scrappy Moms, we are titling this challenge "Amusing Animals" in honor of Scrappy Mom's 1st stamp set!

I couldn't just make 1 card for this special occasion....so I made a set of 5 - 3"x3" cards!  Check them all out below.







How stinkin adorable are these little Animals!  And they pair up PERFECTLY with Scrappy Moms Amusing Animals Stamp Set!  These would be so cute in a lunch box :)   These came together very quickly too!  I die cut all of the animals, then stamped them in Momento Tuxedo Black ink and added some quick colic coloring.  Applied a wash of Tumbled Glass Distress Ink for some "sky" on my card.  Created some faux grass out of green card stock and stamped my sentiments in some speech bubbles.  Lastly added some time to finis the card!

Hope you guys enjoyed!!  Be sure to head over to the Scrappy Moms Blog to join in on the challenge!

See you back here soon :)
