Scrappy Scrappy: December 2018

Happy weekend my dear scrappy friends.

EXCITING NEWS!!

gosh....

Have you heard?

Unity Stamp & Gina K teamed up to create the famous wreath builder stamps - in red rubber!

Seriously, if you've not tried these wreath builder stamps and templates, you got to give it a go.

Here are some cards I made using the "Circle of Friendship" stamps, along with my Misti and Altenew dye inks. The possibilities are just endless!

ScrappyScrappy: Unity Stamp & Gina K Wreath Builders #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #ginakdesigns #wreathbuilder #card #cardmaking #altenewdyeink #altenew #wreath

For my first card, I used mainly the florals in the stamp set, and added the leaves and butterfly. Having a stamping platform really helps with the process and accuracy. Just by using the wreath builder template, you just stamp - move - stamp - move... and before you know it, there is your custom wreath! I also added some rhinestones, because you know I love my bling. :)

For my next card, I used mainly the leaves to build the wreath. The Unity Stamp set also came with some circle stamps and beautiful sentiments, which I embossed with silver and gold. And if you noticed, I did not use a 4x4 cardstock, but a smaller version cardstock of an A2 size. Yups! It works too :) At the bottom of the card, I stamped some butterflies and also added some Glitterific paint along the border.

Hi scrappy friends.

Today it's a special release with Unity Stamp and Lisa Glanz, she draws just the most precious art and I love them all!

Today, I made a baby boy and girl card with the stamps and going back to basics with some simple techniques. Trust me, it's so easy you can do it too :)

My first card is using the "Precious and Sweet" kit with a cute girl and so many cute duckies! I stamped everything on a white cardstock and die cut it with Kat Scrappiness scalloped border die. Then, it's time to color!

I colored with my Colleen colored pencils, which I got from my local stationary store and there were inexpensive. You don't need expensive supplies to create your cards. Just use whatever you have and you'll be surprise the magic you can create with them! Then just add a few sequins, and you're done :)

Then, it's time to create the scalloped border with your sequins! Seriously, it is so easy... you won't believe it. Watch the video and you'll see :)

Hello!

I am back with another Christmas project on the Trendy Twine's blog today.

Christmas is just a week away and I know some of us are wrapping up some last minute Christmas presents. Well, I did mine with a little help from this month's Color of the Month twine: Peppermint Stick!

ScrappyScrappy: Trendy Twine Guest Designer: It's a Christmas Wrap! #trendytwine #scrappyscrappy #christmas2018 #christmas #christmasgifts #christmaswrapping #christmaspresents #christmasgifttags #twine #peppermintstick #holidaygifts #nuvoglimmerpaste #glitterificpaint #merrychristmas

Here's a peek of how my Christmas presents look like this year! I chose these purple/blue/white wrapping papers from Typo and did my best to make them look presentable. Psssttt, I'm not the best "wrapper" in town :)

Then to hold everything together, I tied all my presents up using the Peppermint Stick twine. Don't you think it just adds to the wrapping? I love that it's not bulky as well, just gives a light fine touch.

I also made some Christmas gift tags out of kraft paper. I stenciled some patterns using Nuvo Glimmer Paste and Glitterific paints. Then I added snowflakes using my Gelly Roll white pen. I grabbed some brush markers I had and wrote "Merry Christmas". Then, just use the same twine to tie the tag with some bunny ears and it's done!

Here is the beautiful twine I used for today's card:

Hey scrappy friends.

I am Guest Designing for Trendy Twine blog today and I have a cute Christmas card to share with you!

Today, the feature is this beautiful mixed colored twine:

Berries Jubilee Trendy Bakers twine - Navy Blue and Red

ScrappyScrappy: Trendy Twine Guest Designer - Merry Mail #trendytwine #scrappyscrappy #merrymail #twine #christmascard #card #cardmaking #coloredpencils #unitystamp #sequins #nuvoglitterdrop #simonsaysstamp #stamptember2018 #mamaelephant #santa #cloudstencil

For my card I am using the Simon Says Stamp Stamptember 2018 Mama Elephant set "Merry Mail". I first inked up the skies with a cloud stencil with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks. I stamped and colored all the fun little bits with my colored pencils.

Since Santa is already in his cute little plane writing the word "Merry" in the sky, I thought it would be fun to do decorate the word with twine. I used Thermoweb's mixed media adhesive (which dries clear) and traced along the lines of the word, then slowly twisting the twine and pressing it down along the way.

Finally, I added some pretty Unity Stamp sequins and nuvo glitter drops.

Here is the beautiful twine I used for today's card:

Now let's see the card I created for this hop!

There are so many elements in this card, so let's start with the cute stamps. I combined Avery Elle's "Peek-a-boo pals" and Newton's Nook Designs "Cup of Cocoa" stamps sets and colored them with Copic markers. You just need to stamp the coffee cups on a masking sheet or scrap piece of paper to help mask it off before you stamp the cute animals. I also stamped out the cute sentiment from Kat Scrappiness "Naughty Christmas" stamp set.

Then it's time to create the background!

I used Thermoweb Gina K Designs Blizzard foil-mates background with the Fancy Foils in sprakling silver, ran it through my Heidi Swapp minc machine to create the glittery foiled snowflakes. Then I die cut the Kat Scrappiness "Pine tree border die" and inked it up using Tim Holtz distress oxide ink [Broken China]. To create the glittery snow, I used Brutus Monroe Glitter Glaze [Unicorn Horn] along with Tonic Studios Nuvo glimmer paste [Moonstone]

I am also doing a GIVEAWAY on my Instagram (@scrappyscrappy_). Go to the post for the FULL details on how you could be the lucky winner of this prize:

Happy December.

It's been some time since I was a guest designer and today it's my honor to guest design for Trendy Twine's blog.

Since it is the holiday season, I have a fun Christmas card for you today. They feature for today is: The Christmas Mint Little Bits Trendy bakers twine - Red, White and Lime Green

I love the little bits because you get a little of every beautiful twine.

ScrappyScrappy: Gingerbread Christmas Mint Little Bits #trendytwine #scrappyscrappy #christmascard #christmas #gingerbread #gingerbreadhouse #copicmarkers #cardmaking #twine #merrychristmas

For my card, I used Pink and Main's Gingerbread stamp set, colored them with Copic markers. Then I added Nuvo Glimmer Paste [moonstone] for the glittery snow. I also used some foiled patterned paper to add to the glitz.

Then for the twine, I tied them into little cute bows first before adhering them onto my candies with some Thermoweb mixed media adhesive. It clears dry, so no worries of any adhesive peeking through :)

Here is the beautiful twine that I used for my card today:
