Hello Friends! Today is the day, SBC Fest! Are you ready? I sure am! I have my craft supplies out and I'm ready to craft alongside all of you and the great SBC Fest instructors! If you're new to SBC Fest, you can watch all the fun using this link: SBC Fest.

Today, there is a great FREEBIE for SBC Fest, it's this super cute bear shaker from Scrapbook.com. I used it to create this sweet Christmas card.


So, not to cause any alarm, but did you know there's only 103 days left before Christmas?! Yup, I'm just saying! LOL! Isn't this the sweetest card! I used the bear shaker with a holiday sequin mix from Picket Fence Studios


This card came together really quickly because I used the beautiful Holiday patterned paper for my background. It's just so festive!


For my sentiment, I used the Happy Holidays II die set. I just love that font, it reminds me of the fonts they use for movie titles on the Hallmark channel! LOL!

Thank you so much for stopping by today and be sure to pick up your FREEBIE shaker bear die, and be sure to tune it to SBC Fest starting today at 11am ET!

Hugs,

Carol

Hello Friends! I am on a Halloween roll! I have yet another Halloween card to share with you today using brand new products from Scrapbook.com.


Okay, so the new products are the Nested CoffinsNested GhostsNested Pumpkins and the Spooky Critters rub-ons. I used all of them on this card! This one was pretty easy to put together because after everything was die cut, I just added a few rub-ons to the coffin and the corner of my card.


I think it looks a touch spooky, right?! I absolutely love those pumpkins and there are 4 other sizes of pumpkins in the die set! LOVE!


Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hugs,

Hello Friends! I hope you've been getting crafty lately! There have been so many wonderful releases and new products from our friends at Scrapbook.com. Before I even get started with my project today, did you see that the new Magnetic Magic Mat is available now! It's a game changer!!

Today, I'm sharing another sweet Halloween card. Remember, I said I really don't do Halloween? Well, I'm doing Halloween cards like it's nobody's business! The cuteness is just right up my alley!


Okay, is this cute or what?! A Mummy Bear die set! Oh my goodness. So, for this card, I started with my background and I pulled out paper from the Willow Lane paper pad. I also sprayed a little shimmer
mist for some added sparkle.


Next, I did all of my die cutting while the shimmer mist was drying. I die cut the ghostmummy bear and sentiment and started adhering to my card front. For that circle, I also did a little stenciling using the batty stencil.


I think this card is absolutely adorable! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hugs,

Hello Friends! I love when companies release collections! Recently, Scrapbook.com came out with their Willow Lane collection. The rub-ons are AMAZING! I highly recommend them!


I have to be honest. I'm not the biggest fan of Halloween, but I had so much creating with this set, I may be changing my mind just a bit on Halloween!


For this card, I used the patterned paper, rub-ons as well as a spider web die. For my sentiment, I used the Ghost Cat die set. This set is coming soon, so be sure to sign up so you can be notified as soon as it's released!


I love how this card came together! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hello Friends! So, it's back to school in my neck of the woods, but summer is still going strong! Today's card has all the summertime feels!


I used fantastic products from Scrapbook.com. I used the super cute Ice Cream Cones stencil for my colorful background. Next, I die cut my sand from kraft cardstock. I added a little ink around the edges to give it a little more contrast.


Next, I went to die cut heaven and started cutting all of those sweet little pieces! I used the Summertime
die for all of that. There are 40 pieces in this die set!! You can make all kinds of cute beachy things! Next, I stamped my sentiment using the You're So Sweet stamp set and I cut it out using the coordinating die.


This card is so much fun! And it's perfect to send to a sweet friend! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hugs,

Carol

Hello Friends! Oh my goodness, did I have a fun time creating the card I'm sharing with you today! I used new products from Scrapbook.com and I even used a product I have never used before!


Okay, first of all, can we just talk about that font! LOVE!!! I used the new Thanks Friend stamp set for my sentiment and I absolutely love it! You know what else I love...the brick background! That stencil is now a favorite and you're going to see it again and again! I used a gray ink to lightly ink up my stencil and create that cool background.


Next, I used something that is totally new to me, ASTROPASTE! I am so smitten! I must get more!! I used the beautiful flutter stencil to apply the Astropaste. I added it to select places on my card front. As a side note, I did get some of the Astropaste in places that I did not want but after it dried, I used my sand eraser which took care of most of it. The little that was left behind, I covered with a few sequins!! 


I think this card turned out so cute! And, I "Thank You' for stopping by today. It really means the world to me!

Hugs,

Carol
