Got my Scrappin' Mojo Back!

I have been in somewhat of a scrapping funk lately, I haven't scrapped for about 2 months-until I finally broke the cycle last night. With a sketch from 52 Sketches...52 Weeks , and a digistamp ( cupcake with sprinkles ) from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. Only $1.00- and it can be used so in so many different ways! For the larger cupcake in the corner, I printed it out on two different sheets of cardstock, inked
For the smaller cupcake on the bottom, I printed on white cs, colored it with my BIC markers, cut it out with my Cutterbee scissors, and mounted it on top of two flourishes that I cut out using SCAL, one from Grungeboard (this didn't cut very well, even on multicut 4-can't wait till my Deep Cut Blade gets here!), and green pattern paper. I trimmed the rest of the grungeboard that didn't cut, and inked it with green chalk ink. Added some itty bitty flowers with gemstones in the center, a rub-on title which reads: "Birthday Fun...Make a Wish, it's your birthday!" It took a while but I had fun doing it!

Woo hoo, They say it's my birthday...

So, in celebration of my 29th bday, I have couple of Nascar svgs to share! I was able to do a nice layered logo (thanks to Dan99 and his awesome tutorial on color tracing). You can download the logo here .
I also did a set of racing flags, which can be cut in regular, then black out mode in SCAL.The file can be downloaded here . Now, I just have to find the time to work on my racing album!

A Sale at Lindsay's Stamp Stuff!
For the entire month of May, Lindsay's Stamp Stuff
is running a promotion: spend $5.00, get a free stamp! Hard to beat that, huh? Just click on the link in my sidebar, and shop away! ;)
My card was made using the Daffodils In a Jar
digistamp (love daffodils!), and the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder. I sprayed the cardstock with Pearl Glimmer Mist, then used the rolling pin embossing method (damp cardstock works much better for this!).

A Card for my Mommy!


I don't care how old I get, she'll always be my Mommy! Anyway, I just thought I would quickly show you all the card I made for my mom for Mother's Day (took me all night Saturday-nothing like the last minute, huh?). I got the idea for this card from the flowerpot cards on Splitcoast Stampers, and did my own twist on it. I used a variety of flowers and vines, some from cartridges, some were svg files.I inked the edges of the flowers, layered, and pop-dotted some of the flowers for dimension. Thanks for looking!

This week's project for Lindsay's Stamp Stuff

My project for Lindsay's Stamp Stuff this week is a baby word book and onesie card that I made for my daughter's teacher, who is having a little girl this summer. I used 2 different sets of digi-stamps from Lindsay's store, and one individual



For page 2, I used a pregnant silhouette svg cut , a sticker titles, and a couple of big flowers, with a gemstone center. For page 3. I used a plaque cut from Storybook, and some green gemstone flowers, but the "star" of this page is the rattle from Lindsay's Babies and Bows digistamp collection.
I colored it with my Bic markers, and colored the white part with a white chalk pen. I then used my Copic colorless blender to blend the colors/draw out the highlights. I then covered the ball part of the rattle with Glossy Accents,waited till it was almost dry and added Martha Stewart fine white glitter. After it was almost dry, I "fussy cut" it out and added it to the page with pop dots.
For page 4, I just cut a couple of plaques from Storybook, to allow for journaling. For page 5, I colored 3 more images from the Babies and Bows collection (the Welcome Baby banner, the cradle, and the button), using my Bic markers, and my Copics. I added Glossy Accents to the button for a more realistic look, and fussy cut them all. I printed out the Flourished Frame digistamp, then cut it out and chalked the edges with pink chalk ink. I added the banner to the top of the frame for a lovely spot to put the new baby's first photo, and attached the rest of the embellies to finish the page.
Page 6: I simply cut a frame/plaque from Storybook in a large size, so she can either attach more photos, or do a little journaling.
Page 7:I cut out the sentiment "A Wish Came True" with a frame, then colored the fairy princess from the Pretty Princess Collection. I used my Bics and Copics again, then added yellow Stickles to the top of the wand, and covered the skirt with green Stickles,and cut her out after she was completely dry. I then attached various pink, green, and yellow ribbons from my stash to the part of the "Y" that branched out.
I punched holes in the book with my Cropadile Big Bite, added some book rings (they are super cheap in the office supply section at Wal Mart), and attached ribbon to those as well.
But the gift would not be complete with out a card, so I cut out my card using a onesie pattern with a bib. I dry embossed the card using the Cuttlebug Stylized Flowers folder (rolling pin

Card for Teacher...Just Magnolia challenge

I cut the borders and scalloped oval behind Tilda with my Cricut and SCAL. The flowers are by Making Memories, the gemstones are by The Paper Studio. I inked the edges of the scalloped oval and the borders, and stamped the Autumn leaves flourish, and the No.1 Teacher Sentiment by Studio G. I colored the Sweet Tilda image using Prang art brush markers and Copics for the skin, and added the highlights with a white Uniball Signo pen. Thanks for looking!
