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)

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.

Terrific Tuesday Challenge for Scrappy Mom's!

Hello Everyone!!! 

Welcome to another Terrific Tuesday Challenge for Scrappy Mom's! 

So this weeks challenge was to use the Smiley Card's Cartridge!  I'm glad this was the challenge because I like to try and create different things.  So I made sure to remove all of the "faces" and tried to change it up a bit.  

My sister is going to turn 17 on Thursday....HOLY MOLEY I'm getting old!!! Well, she will be going to take her driving test to get her license.....good golly stay out of JERSEY! LOL  I thought I'd make her a card that doubles up as a Birthday and Good Luck Card.  Plus, I got the chance to use my Animal Print Paper!!! My sister school has a cheetah for their mascot so I thought the cheetah paper was VERY appropriate.  The cupcake is from a Stampin' Up! stamp set that I just recently got....Let me just say that I went a little crazy on my last order! lol so y'all should be seeing more of their products in my up and coming projects. 

Any who....enough blabbering.  Here is what I created.  I also included a "Recipe" for my card as someone suggested it :)  

Supplies: 

*Recollections card stock

*Recollections Animal Print card stock

*Ribbon from Michael's

*Button from Walmart

*Martha Steward Loopy Punch

*Stampin' Up! Decorative Label Punch

*Stampin' Up! Birthday Bakery Stamp Set

*Car from Smiley Card Cartridge

*Scrappy Mom's Kids Incorporated Stamp Set
