Love To Scrap 2

One-Thousand Posts on WordPress and a Giveaway!

** Sticky post will remain at top of blog until Giveaway is over. **

Hi friends! I’ve hit a milestone on my WordPress blog… this is my one-thousandth post! Whoop-Whoop! Nearly all of my posts have been of the crafty variety, with a few cat-related ones thrown in, lol! I’ve been blogging for a little more than ten years, starting out on Blogger in 2011 and transitioning to WordPress in 2017, nearly five years ago. In all honesty, I don’t know how many posts I had on the old Blogger blog but I’ll try to remember to look that up and update this post with a grand total of blog posts. UPDATE: I have 709 posts on the old blog, for a grand total of 1709 posts… that’s a lot of blabbing!

I am celebrating one-thousand posts on WordPress with a Giveaway (sponsored solely by me)! I have an extra set of My Favorite Things Stitched Scallop Basic Edges 2 Die-namics that I’d like to send to a lucky randomly-selected commenter! [I realize that some comments may be left by people who aren’t interested in the Giveaway, so please state in your comment if you’d like to be included in the draw!]

I’ll leave the Giveaway open until 11:59 PM Mountain Time on December 14th, and I’ll update this post with the winner announcement on December 15th. The winner must contact me no later than December 21st via my Contact form (first item under Pages on my right sidebar) with his/her postal address.

And the winner is…
ASHLEY CORTEZ!
Thanks to everyone who left me a comment! ;)

Following my blog is NOT a requirement for entering this Giveaway, although I’d be lying if I said I wouldn’t appreciate you becoming a follower, if you aren’t already! I appreciate every single one of my blog followers, and I appreciate all those who take the time to visit my blog, read my posts, and leave awesome comments! This means the world to me!

Thanks so much for stopping by today – we’ll see you again soon! ;)

Let’s Get Together

Hi friends! And this is the fourth project I’m showcasing for the Trinity Ambassador “A Few of Our Favorite Things” Social Media Hop on Instagram starting at 6:00 AM PST this morning and ending at 11:59 PM PST on Friday, December 3rd! My main post is HERE. This is a clean and simple friendship card that is almost a one-layer card. I did add a panel behind the front flap so I’d have something to adhere the negative space of the cut-out to. Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you – I really appreciate your support! This card features the Cafe Cup Cutout Die with sentiments from the A Sentiment for (Almost) Everything stamp set. It’s a super easy one that would be awesome to mass-produce to have several in your stash!

For your chance to win a $20 gift card to the Trinity Stamps store, be sure to hop along with us on Instagram, starting at @trinitystampsllc – there will be a ton of inspiration! Winners will be announced on the Trinity Stamps blog by December 5th! Have fun hopping!

I cut a 5″ square top-folding card base and an extra panel from CutCardStock Royal Sundance Felt Natural cardstock. I die cut the cup into the front flap using the Cafe Cup Cutout Die and adhered the extra panel behind the front flap. I die cut the cup once more from CutCardStock Curious Metallic Chestnut cardstock and adhered the negative space into the cut-out on the front flap. I stamped the front sentiment from the A Sentiment for (Almost) Everything stamp set in brown ink and added some clear gemstones that I colored with a brown alcohol marker to complete the front.

I stamped the inside sentiment from the A Sentiment for (Almost) Everything stamp set in brown ink directly on the inside flap without doing any layering. Very unusual for me, lol!

And one more look… super happy with how this turned out! As I mentioned above, this card would be super easy to mass-produce to have several in your stash!

From Our Gnome to Yours

Hey peeps! This is the third project I’m showcasing for the Trinity Ambassador “A Few of Our Favorite Things” Social Media Hop on Instagram starting at 6:00 AM PST this morning and ending at 11:59 PM PST on Friday, December 3rd! My main post is HERE. Yep, you guessed it… another mini slim! I LOVE mini slimline cards – they are my new favorite size! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you – I really appreciate your support! This card features the From Our Gnome to Yours stamp set and From Our Gnome to Yours die set, and the inside sentiment is from the A Sentiment for (Almost) Everything stamp set. I can’t get enough of the Trinity Stamps gnomes, so it’s no wonder that two of my four projects feature gnome stamps and dies!

I cut the mini slim card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with a layering panel from the Christmas Holiday Print 6×6 paper pad using the Waffle Flower Mini Slimline Layers die set. I cut a felt doily almost in half and set the larger piece aside. I stamped the focal image from the From Our Gnome to Yours stamp set in black ink on Solar White cardstock, colored it with alcohol markers, and cut it with the coordinating From Our Gnome to Yours die set. I stamped and die cut the sentiment from the same stamps and dies, and adhered all the elements to the card front. The final touch was adding some gemstones from the Ruby Radiance Embellishment Mix using the Trinity Pick Up Stick which is a “must” in your crafty stash!

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock using the Waffle Flower Mini Slimline Layers die set and embellished it with a leftover strip of patterned paper used on the front. I stamped the sentiment from the A Sentiment for (Almost) Everything stamp set in black ink and layered the panel on CutCardStock Pop-Tone Jellybean Green cardstock cardstock.

And one more look… another absolutely ah-DOR-able gnome from Trinity Stamps!

Coffee

Hi friends! This is the second project I’m showcasing for the Trinity Ambassador “A Few of Our Favorite Things” Social Media Hop on Instagram starting at 6:00 AM PST this morning and ending at 11:59 PM PST on Friday, December 3rd! My main post is HERE. I mentioned in my last post that I was in a mini slimline kind of mood… and three of my four projects were mini slims, lol! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you – I really appreciate your support! This card features die cuts from the Coffee Cut & Foil Die Set and the inside sentiment is from A Sentiment for (Almost) Everything stamp set. I wanted a ‘country’ feel to this card so that’s why I chose not to use the foil plates. But stay tuned because it won’t be long before I do use them!

I cut the mini slimline card base from CutCardStock Basis Brown cardstoc k along with a layering panel from Hot Off The Press Sunflowers 6×6 double-sided cardstock using the Waffle Flower Mini Slimline Layers die set. I die cut the coffee sentiment four times from Neenah Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock using the die from the Coffee Cut & Foil Die Set and layered them together for a little dimension. I die cut the coffee cup from ivory and brown cardstock, the coffee beans from brown cardstock, and the mid section of the cup and beans from scraps of the patterned paper, and did some paper piecing to complete them. I adhered all the elements to the card front (using double-sided adhesive foam strips for the cup), and added a few gemstones from the Ruby Radiance Embellishment Mix using the Trinity Pick Up Stick – which is a true life-saver when adhering gemstones!

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock using the Waffle Flower Mini Slimline Layers die set and embellished it with a leftover strip of patterned paper used on the front and a narrow strip of CutCardStock Basis Brown cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the A Sentiment for (Almost) Everything stamp set in brown ink and adhered the panel to the inside of the card base. I had leftover heart die cuts so I pieced one together and adhered it to the inside panel.

And one more peek… super awesome coffee-loving card! Love the country feel!

We’re Gnome for the Holidays

Hi everybody! This is the first project I’m showcasing for the Trinity Ambassador “A Few of Our Favorite Things” Social Media Hop on Instagram starting at 6:00 AM PST this morning and ending at 11:59 PM PST on Friday, December 3rd! My main post is HERE. I was in a mini slimline kind of mood… my new favorite size card (3-1/2″ x 6″) that’s a legal size to mail! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you – I really appreciate your support! This card features the Gnome for the Holidays stamp set and Gnome for the Holidays die set and the inside sentiment is from the A Sentiment for (Almost) Everything stamp set. Such a fun little travelin’ scene!

I cut the mini slim card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with a layering panel from the Christmas Holiday Print 6×6 paper pad using the Waffle Flower Mini Slimline Layers die set. I hand-cut the highway from CutCardStock Basis Gray cardstock and used a white paint pen to draw the dotted center line. I stamped the focal image from the Gnome for the Holidays stamp set in black ink on Solar White cardstock, colored it with alcohol markers (and gold pen for the ornaments), and cut it with the coordinating Gnome for the Holidays die set. I added Ranger Glossy Accents to the headlights and the gold ornaments on the tree. I stamped and die cut the sentiment from the same stamps and dies, and adhered all the elements to the card front.

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock using the Waffle Flower Mini Slimline Layers die set and embellished it with a leftover strip of patterned paper used on the front and a narrow strip of CutCardStock Basis Gray cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the A Sentiment for (Almost) Everything stamp set in black ink and layered the panel on gray cardstock.

And one more look… I absolutely LOVE gnomes, and Trinity Stamps has some of the most adorable out there! Super happy with this travelin’ guy! ;)

Hey peeps! It’s a nice crisp 30 degrees here this morning and we haven’t had any more snow since the other day when we had some that didn’t stick. The snowflakes were huge, though! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you – I really appreciate your support! I have a card to share this morning for the new Festive Fridays Challenge that started yesterday over at The Outlawz Challenges. SheepSki Designs is sponsoring this month and the themes this time are Christmas, Anything Goes, Thank You and Winter/Snowy. This thank you card is perfect for the challenge and was so much fun to create using Perfect Pearls in Blue Smoke, Forever Green, Forever Red, Forever Violet, Kiwi and Perfect Pearl and the smooshing technique on black glossy cardstock.

I cut a standard A2 size landscape top-folding card base from CutCardStock Basis Black cardstock along with layering panels from Marcos Black Gloss cardstock and Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock. I created the background on the black gloss cardstock panel by smooshing it into Blue Smoke, Forever Green, Forever Red, Forever Violet, Kiwi and Perfect Pearl powders (individually) that I spritzed with water in the Tim Holtz Distress Sprayer. I cut the large bold portion of the sentiment from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock using the Waffle Flower Bold Alpha dies, and then added the smaller portion stamped with the Waffle Flower Sentiment Additions stamp set in black ink and cut with the coordinating Waffle Flower Sentiment Additions die set.

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a leftover strip trimmed from the front panel along with a narrow strip of CutCardStock Basis Black cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Waffle Flower Sentiment Additions stamp set in black ink and adhered the panel to the inside of the card base.

And one more peek… so loving how this turned out! It’s a very versatile background that could fit any theme whatsoever! AND not to mention it’s a super fun technique!

Three Favorite Holiday Projects for Eyelet Outlet

Hey peeps! A very Happy Saturday to you – I hope you’ve had a great week! I’m stoked to be back on the Eyelet Outlet blog today sharing my three favorite holiday projects created with our amazing products! This is a different kind of post – all three of these projects have already been showcased on my blog. When this idea was presented to our design team, we all loved it, so hopefully this is the start of a new holiday tradition!

The first of my three favorites is this adorable Merry Christmoose card! These Moose Brads are some of the coolest brads ever, which I paired with our Copper Skinny Washi Tape and White Enamel Dots to create this fun scene.

The card in the number two spot is this peaceful serene scene created with our Cardinal Brads and Cardinal Profile Brads against a Glitter Star Washi Tape background embellished with Snowflake Brads and White Enamel Dots.

And my third favorite is this step card shaker! Who can resist a shaker card?! Especially a shaker card filled with our gorgeous Snowflake Sequins?! I also used clear gemstones from our Clear Jewel Bling and Clear Bling Strips to embellish the snowflakes on the front of the shaker.

I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s post, even though it’s a little bit different from the norm! Be sure to check out all the fun goodies at Eyelet Outlet and be sure to ‘like’ and ‘follow’ Eyelet Outlet Facebook Page to keep up with news and sales! And while you’re at it, join the Eyelet Outlet Fans Facebook group for lots of creative inspiration! Thanks so much for stopping by today – we’ll see you next time! ;)

USA proud!

Hey, everybody! A big ol’ Happy Friday to you all! If you’re in the States, then you celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday, and I hope you had a wonderful day! I’m thrilled to be back on the Clear Scraps blog today with another awesome DT inspiration project! I thought I’d take a break from the Autumn/Fall and Christmas projects, and share something a little different. This July 4th card features our USA Chipboard Embellishment. I love all things Americana and this chipboard embellishment was just the ticket for a super easy Independence Day card!

I cut a standard size A2 side-folding card base from ivory cardstock along with a layering panel from patterned paper, and rounded the bottom right corner. I adhered the patterned paper and a trimmed piece of patriotic ephemera to the left side, and added a piece of skinny red washi tape at the seam. I adhered medium blue and red cardstock to the back of the USA Chipboard Embellishment and then ran a black alcohol marker around the outside edge. I adhered the chipboard to the card front along with scrabble tiles from my ephemera stash to complete the front.

I cut the inside panel from ivory cardstock and embellished it with the patterned paper used on the front and a piece of skinny red washi tape. I stamped the sentiment in blue ink and layered the panel on red cardstock.

And one more peek… really loving how this turned out! This USA Chipboard Embellishment is ah-maaazing!

‘Tis the Season

11/25/21 Top Pick of the Week at The Outlawz Twist Thursday Challenge!

Hi friends! Happy Monday! I’ll be leaving later this morning to see my cardiologist for a follow-up visit and to get another echocardiogram to see if my ejection fraction has improved since having the heart attack in August. The ejection fraction is a measurement showing how much blood the heart pumps, so wish me luck… it was low back in August so I’m praying it has improved. UPDATE: My ejection fraction has returned to normal, and my overall cardiac function is normal! AND our little rescue kitten, Fogg, is still doing great! Good news all the way around! ;) Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you – I really appreciate your support! I have one more card to share that I’ve created for The Outlawz Challenges. I feel really good to have been able to play in some of their challenges this month. ;) I’m entering this card into The Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge and this is Sponsor Appreciation Week 3, Anything Goes with optional twist of Hot or Cold (using two hot or two cold colors). Technically, I’m not playing the twist as I’ve used one hot and one cold color on my mini slimline Christmas card.

I cut a mini slimline card base and a layering panel from Neenah Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock along with a layering panel from CutCardStock Basis Red cardstock using theWaffle Flower Mini Slimline Layers die set. I stamped the whimsical poinsettia background in red and green ink using the STAMPlorations Layered Poinsettias stamp set. I stamped the outlines in Versamark and heat embossed them in Ranger super fine detail gold embossing powder. I mixed gold acrylic paint with a tiny bit of water and splattered it with a fan brush over the background. I added a sentiment created with the Holiday Sentiments Series 2 Glimmer hot foil plate & die set and some gold pearls to finish the front.

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock along with a layering panel from CutCardStock Basis Red cardstock using the Waffle Flower Mini Slimline Layers dies and adhered them together, and then affixed a STAMPlorations Merry Everything Clear Sticker.

And one more look… so loving how this turned out! I haven’t seen a layered stamp set from STAMPlorations yet that I haven’t just loved!
