Scrapbooking Christmas With Scrap Shotz December Kit!

Hello, and almost Happy New Year! Wow, Christmas was awesome and is always so busy. I must admit I don't mind when things calm down a bit so I can get out my pics and start scrapping those precious December memories. I'm over on the Scrap Shotz Blog today with two very sweet layouts using the December 2019 Scrapbook Kit featuring the gorgeous Kaisercraft Starry Night collection and a couple adorable, if I must say so myself, pics of my niece and nephew. 

Thanks so much for stopping by! You can check out the full tutorials and all the details and closeups on these layouts over on the Scrap Shotz Blog - you'll be able to see exactly how these both came together. I hope you have a wonderful New Years Eve and an amazing 2020 ahead.

Last Minute Gift Tags Freebie with Gerda Steiner Designs!

Hello! Yup, we're down to the finish line... Paper is flying, tape is everywhere, and oh yeah - where are the gift tags, lol?!! You are going to love these adorable cute 'free' 3 Gift Tags digi stamp from Gerda Steiner Designs. These are quick and easy to print out and honestly you don't even have to colour them in, but they are super cute if you decide to 😉

I printed three rows of these sweet tags on a sheet of 65 lbs white cardstock, coloured them with Copic Markers, and added a little festive twine. My daughter swiped one of the candy cane tags, but I can easily print out more if I run low!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Be sure to head over to the Gerda Steiner Designs Blog for closeups of all three of these sweet tags. I hope you're enjoying Christmas and taking some time for yourself. I will be finishing up my wrapping, enjoying some holiday tunes and sipping a little eggnog. Merry Christmas Friends!

Sis Is Crafty Like Me Layout!

Hello! It's finally Friday and I've crafted as much as I possibly could this week while the kids were in school. Of course they do enjoy crafting with me, but I just never get as much done, lol. I wanted to share one more project this week and since I'm over on the Wild Whisper Blog today I thought I'd use some cute photos of my girls crafting together a few years ago along with the Child At Heart 12x12 Paper Pack, Ephemera and Fandom Sequins. Just looking at the Child At Heart collection gives me so many ideas about different stories I want to scrap...

Warm Wishes Snowman Card!

Hello! I am over on the Gerda Steiner Designs Blog today sharing this cute winter card using the Snowman and Birds Digital Stamp from the Gerda Steiner Designs Shop. I love using snowmen on holiday cards, but this guy would work perfectly all winter long! I printed him out along with a hand-typed sentiment using the Miss Sasha font from Miss Kate Cuttables. There are so many awesome fonts available on your computer or online that you'll never run out of options for sentiments. I coloured the image in with Copics and layered all the pieces on some BoBunny paper from my stash, creating a lovely, wintry card!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to head over to the Gerda Steiner Designs Blog for details and closeups.

Home For The Holidays Hop & Giveaway!

Hello! It's almost Christmas, and what could be better than a fun Holiday Hop with crafty, festive inspiration?!! Today, I'm participating in the Home For The Holidays Christmas Hop with a few crafty friends of mine. I can't wait to show you what I'm sharing - and be sure to scroll down because I've got a sweet GIVEAWAY!!

My girls and I have been doing lots of Christmas crafting lately, and these wood slice ornaments were something I've wanted to try! I started off by stamping adorable Kraftin Kimmie stamps from the Shake It Up and coordinating Shake It Up Polar Bears stamp sets on wood slices from Amazon.

The Krafty Kolours Inks available from Kraftin' Kimmie are lovely hybrid inks that stamp beautifully! After stamping I used coloured pencils to colour in the images - nothing fancy - even your kiddos can have fun doing this! I added some Liquid Pearls to the little pile of snowballs for added dimension here.

I added a bit of white gel pen to the little deer scarf (how cute is he?!!) and drew in some snowy hills with a black fine tipped pen.

I love all the cute images included in these sets - perfect to embellish the sweet animals! 

A bit of Stickles glitter glue adds just the right amount of glittery goodness to these ornaments.

On the back I stamped a cute sentiment and a few more snowflakes, again with the Krafty Kolours Inks. I used some bakers twine from my stash to tie through the hole and these ornaments are ready to gift or hang on our tree if I can't give them away 😉

Now, let's get to some BLOG CANDY!!

Let me tell you how awesome Kimmie is... I said I was offering an $10 gift certificate and she offered to bump it to $20!!

Echo Park Little Lumberjack - Product Review and Projects!

Hello friends! I am so excited to be over on the Scrap Shotz Blog today to share the new Echo Park Little Lumberjack collection - available in the shop now! This collection is full of plaids, nature images, flannels - just so awesome. Really it works with so many different themes... masculine, outdoors, camping, winter and even teddy bears as you'll see in my layout below. First, here's a look at all the available elements in this collection.

Here's a look at the video where you can see it all close up-

For my first project I decided to make a layout about the Grade 1 class bear, Barnaby, that came to visit! I thought these papers and stickers worked perfectly to document his adventures! I used the December Creative Scrapbooker Sketch as inspiration.

Next, I used the papers from the 6x6 pad along with all the other fun goodies to make 4 masculine cards. I never seem to have enough of these on hand, and they can easily be personalized with a message when needed.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Be sure to head over to the Scrap Shotz Blog where you can see closeups and get all the details on the Little Lumberjack collection and the projects I created! I'll be back to share more inspiration using this awesome collection on Friday, so don't forget to come on back!

Christmas Stocking Wall Hanging!

Hello friends! We are all getting so excited for Christmas at our house, and I had a lot of fun taking a little crafty time to create a pretty wall hanging stocking using goodies from the Southern Ridge Trading Company Shop. This would make a great project for the whole family to create - customizing a stocking each and maybe adding a name or initial. You can find the full step by step tutorial on the Southern Ridge Trading Company Blog!

I used some sparkly ArtQuest Stargazers Watercolor Paints to give the chipboard pieces a shiny coat of colour. A few cute elements from the Tim Holtz idea-ology Mini Christmas Ephemera peek out of the decorated stocking. Of course I added some beautiful sequins from Studio Katia and glittery Stickles!

I added some puffy Liquid Applique to the Noel sentiment, which puffs up when heated with a heat gun, and the pearly white paint added a beautiful sheen to the chipboard snowflake. The red patterned Cricut vinyl was quick and easy to add to the stocking!

Thanks so much for stopping by! You can find the full tutorial and supply list on the Southern Ridge Trading Company Blog. Hope you are having a fabulous start to December!!
