Scrap 'N Stamp - Stamptember Blog Hop!

Hello friends!! I'm back today with a fun blog hop as a Guest Designer with my friends at Scrap 'N Stamp! If you've arrived here from Tara at the Scrap 'N Stamp blog, you're in the right place as she's at the start of the hop. We are all sharing projects today using the amazing Memory Box Postage Stamp Die, which is on SALE right now for 25% off!!

I was really impressed with how nicely this die was able to cut through my cardstock. And, I loved that it not only cuts 5 individual stamps, but also has a border die included that I used around the edges of my larger background layer. I added some Prima postage patterned paper from my stash and used a ribbon and one of the awesome vintage light bulb charms from the Maya Road - Ken Oliver Vintage Bulbs and Keys embellishments.

I decided to use the Lawn Fawn Love Letters stamps set and stamp directly onto the Recollections Watercolour patterned paper I was using. I used some Prismacolor coloured pencils to colour in the images and added a couple of adorable envelopes.

Inside and on the envelope, I added another diecut postage stamp - I'm thinking these would be adorable on some DIY handmade tags tucked in and stamped on.... 💕And, I added another envelope and some more SpiegelMom Scraps sequins to coordinate with the front of the card.

I really enjoyed making this cute card, which I gave to a wonderful friend in a package of Happy Mail goodies - so really it was the perfectly coordinated card!

Crocheted With Love Gift Tag and Video!

Hey there!! How is everyone today?! Hopefully great! I just finished crocheting this cute baby rattle for a friend who's having a baby and, of course, I had to add a little handmade gift tag! The Knit Happens stamp set from Pretty Cute Stamps was perfect!

After cutting out my tag using a Spellbinders die I sponged blue Distress Ink around the edges and then stamped on the sweet sentiment and hearts included in the stamp set.

I used the coordinating SVG files and my Cricut Explore to cut out the yarn and crochet hook diecuts and then stamped on them and coloured with coloured pencils.

I used some foam dots to pop up my little yarn cut and tied my tag onto the baby rattle with blue and white bakers twine. Now, this little baby rattle is all ready to give to my friend who's expecting a new baby boy anyday!

You can check out the video where I show you how I made this cute tag here!
