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 Coffins, Nested Ghosts, Nested 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!

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 ghost, mummy 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!

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!

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!

Hello Friends! I had a wonderful weekend full of crafting! My sweet daughter also crafted along with me and we had a blast!

I recently received some new goodies from Scrpbook.com and I used a few of those to make a fun summer inspired card.


I used the Beach Vacation die set for my scene. I love how realistic those palm trees look! Before I adhered my die cut images, I used the Small Checkered for my background.


For my sand, I used some white paint splatter to give a little interest, then I adhered my die cut pieces. You see that little drink there on the lower right? I created that using a rectangle die to cut some patterned paper, then I fussy cut my "straw" out of silver card stock. Lastly, I added my sentiment using the Hello Summer stamp set.


I love how this card turned out! Although, we have some wind and rain coming through right now, I can still enjoy the beach, even if it is just a card! Thank you so much for stopping by!

Hello Friends! Boy, do I have a treat for you today! I have the most adorable rub-ons you have ever seen and they are available NOW at Scrapbook.com.


OMG! Adorable, right? I used Birthday Animals, Birthday Party and Sprinkles rub-ons for this cute notecard set! These are 4x4 and I believe I only used one stamp and one die, everything else is rub-ons!


Also, if I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times, these rub-ons are like buttah!! They go on so smooth! I think these little notecards would be perfect to tuck inside of a gift bag. Since these are 4x4, I also made custom envelopes to go along with them!


I just pulled out some patterned paper and my envelope punch board, easy peasy! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

 Hello Friends! I don't know about you, but the heat is REAL! It has been so darn hot, I can barely take it!! But, I decided to channel my warm energy into a card!


This card came together so easily using fun products from Scrapbook.com. I started by die cutting my sunburst from the Yellows paper pad. I added that on top of an orangish shade of card stock for a little contrast.


Next, I popped up the center of my sunburst with foam adhesive for dimension then I sprayed a little distress oxide spray for a little texture. Next. I stamped and die cut that awesome sentiment and added it to the front of my card.


Lastly, I added a few gold pearls for a little extra pop! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hello Friends! I hope all of my US friends had a happy and safe 4th of July holiday! We had a wonderful party with 20 of our family and friends. We had such a great time. All I can say is I'm really happy I decided to take off from work the next day! LOL!

Today, I'm sharing a sweet card using products from Scrapbook.com.


I used the Whale Hello stamp die combo for this card. After stamping, coloring using alcohol ink markers and die cutting, I got started on my background.


I knew I wanted something reminiscent of a nighttime sky, so I took out my distress oxide inks and got to blending! I spritzed a little water to get that great water reactive look you get with distress oxides.


Next, I added my sentiment and sub-sentiment and then started playing with my placement of the whale. I knew I wanted to add some rub-ons so I reached for the Handwritten Hearts. I think it adds such a sweet touch to this card.

Hello Friends! It's been kinda quiet around here lately because I've been traveling for work and then I got sick. :-( I'm still trying to shake this cough! There's nothing like being under the weather when the skies are blue and the birds are chirping and all you want to do is go outside and have fun. But, this too shall pass.

Today, I'm popping in with a really pretty card to let someone in your life know they are Fabulous! Wouldn't you like to receive a card like that? I know I would! 


For this card, I used the Lovely Bunches stamp/die combo fromScrapbook.com. I colored the image using alcohol markers and added some highlights using a white gel pen (my daughter calls that adding "essence" LOL!).


Next, I die cut a hexagon from gold foiled cardstock. I adhered the lovely bunches and then die cut my awesome sentiment using the Hey There Friend die set. I love how that black sentiments just POPS off the card!


I also used a decorative die to cut my card front and I adhered my design onto that. I absolutely love how this card turned out! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hello Friends! I hope you're doing well in your neck of the woods. The weather here has been absolutely beautiful. Low 80's and almost NO humidity! I have been having some really good hair days! LOL!

Today, I have a colorful birthday card to share using products from Scrapbook.com.


Okay, I am totally smitten with the Market Bloom Shopping Bags there are two types of bags and you can even fit a gift card inside! I love it! Okay, so let me back up to how I started this card. I used a wavy die to cut out my rainbow colors from the Sherbet paper pad. Next, I used my nested arches die to cut out my rainbow. I adhered that to my card front and then die cut my Market Bloom Shopping Bags out of kraft card stock. 


I wanted to add a little interest to my bag so I added some daisies. Next, I die cut a few autumn leaves out of vellum and adhered that inside my bag. I added that to my card front and last but not least, I die cut my Happy Birthday sentiment and added that on top of my bag.


I think this card turned out so fun and festive! Perfect for a birthday. Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Today, I have a colorful birthday card to share using products from Scrapbook.com.


Okay, I am totally smitten with the Market Bloom Shopping Bags there are two types of bags and you can even fit a gift card inside! I love it! Okay, so let me back up to how I started this card. I used a wavy die to cut out my rainbow colors from the Sherbet paper pad. Next, I used my nested arches die to cut out my rainbow. I adhered that to my card front and then die cut my Market Bloom Shopping Bags out of kraft card stock. 


I wanted to add a little interest to my bag so I added some daisies. Next, I die cut a few autumn leaves out of vellum and adhered that inside my bag. I added that to my card front and last but not least, I die cut my Happy Birthday sentiment and added that on top of my bag.


I think this card turned out so fun and festive! Perfect for a birthday. Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hugs,

Carol

Hello Friends! Happy Monday! I hope your weekend was wonderful! I'm popping in today with a colorful, floral thank you card.


Isn't this card fun! I used the Sunshine Blooms stamp set with various ink colors. I have a confession, I am in love the new ink colors from Concord & 9th. So, I stamped a panel with those beautiful blooms and then I added a text background over top using the Prose background stamp. I just love how that looks.


Next, I grabbed a banner die from my stash and then came the fun part...rub-ons! I used the gorgeous Joyful Flowers rub-ons for the butterflies, sentiment and sub-sentiment. And, if I've said it once, I've said it a million times, the rub-ons from Scrapbook.com go onto your paper like BUTTAH!!


This is such a fun and colorful card! I can't wait to get it into the mail and hopefully make someone's day! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs,

Carol
