My Craft Spot Challenge #98 Ribbon & Twine

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion! 

Hello Everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend! I can't believe how fast they come and go though:( It rained here on and off but we still managed to get a lot done which felt good.

Today we have a fun challenge going on at My Craft Spot and hope you join in the fun!

The challenge this week is:

Ribbon & Twine 

My card for today is made using My Craft Spot's NEW tickets metal dies and the tickets stamp set.

I have made a fun shaped card using the Create A Critter cartridge. I used my gypsy to weld the shape and cut it at 4.75 plus all the layers. I cut the cute little bumble bees at 2 1/2 and 2 3/4 also using my gypsy to hide the face features so I could stamp a fun PK face.

I stamped the face with PK-180 Erkle & Merkle face set. SO cute, ha? I added a fun caribbean twine bow, freckles and glossy accents to the eyes.

To finish my card, I tied a double bow using caribbean crinkle ribbon,  a caribbean twine bow and a fun button and tucking in a fun tag using My Craft Spot's NEW tickets die set and tickets stamp set.

Be sure to stop at My Craft Spot and check out what the rest of the design team has created for inspiration! Hope you come join us in the challenge. We would love to see what you create :)
I am entering this in the following challenges:
1.) DL.ART Thankful Thursday-May Linky Party

Hello my crafty friends! Guess what...I have another project to share with you! Yeah, second one today! Can you believe it? I wanted to join in some more challenges and I needed a quick card for a friend today. Check it out :)

I made a quick card for a friend of mine to go along with a gift I will be giving her. The card base is 5x5 and the base layer 4 3/4 x 4 3/4. The base layer papers are from My Minds Eye-A Mothers Love which I picked up over at Pumpkin Spice. I just love the papers in this 6 x 6 paper pad:)

I cut a small strip along the bottom using coordinating paper from this pack and then added a doily border with a Martha Stewart doily punch.

I used My Creative Time stitched doily die for the doily and My Creative Time stitched daisy die for the pretty flowers.

The sentiment is stamped with My Creative Time's floral sentiments stamp set. The fun double bow using SU ribbon is added long with buttons to finish the card:)

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion! 

Good afternoon my crafty friends! Yeah, it's Friday! I hope you have a fun weekend planned :) I am hoping to get outside and do some cleaning up of my flower gardens and of course, do a little crafting:) I haven't really had the chance to get in my craft room lately. Just seems like something keeps getting in the way,ugh! So, with that being said...I will be making a huge attempt to get in there, lol! 

Today we have another fun challenge for you going on at Little Scrap Pieces and the challenge for this week is:
Shape Up! 

(Anything but an A2 card)

Here is my card for some inspiration:

I cut the shape of my card using the Nesting Eyelet Circles die set. I embossed the layers with the honeycomb embossing folder. I cut the adorable bear at 3 3/4 plus the layers from the Teddy Bear Parade cartridge and used my gypsy to hide features so I could stamp a fun face on the bear. I used the PK Teddy Bear Asst stamp set for the cute face.

I added a fun double sheer bow, a lemon divine twine bow, a button and a tag using My Craft Spots postage stamps  stamp set and the tickets die set.

Wowzers, a lot of sets ha?? These are all such awesome sets to have in your craft room :) If interested in any of these sets, visit Kimberly's store for all the details HERE.

Here is some inspiration to get your creative juices going:

I started out with kraft paper and layered a green panel on that. I then stamped this cutie pie using PK209-Life is Good Babies stamp set and colored her with copics and framed her out with with kraft paper and popped her onto the green panel. I gave her cute rosy cheeks, freckles and glossy accents to her eyes and added a pink limeade twine bow for her hair.

I stamped the sentiments on the front of the invitation with My Craft Spot's New Arrival stamp set and finished the card with a bow using fun polka dot ribbon. I added a fun ticket tag to the bow using My Craft Spots Tickets Metal Dies, Tickets Stamp Set and Postage Stamp Set.

Sweet Birthday Wishes!

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion!! 

Hello Everyone! I hope your having a great week so far! It has been pretty nice here the last few days, all I want to do is spend time outside!! So, did you all have a nice Mother's Day? I was able to spend Saturday with my Mom and Sister.  We had a blast shopping and going out to eat!  Then on Sunday, we had a BBQ in the afternoon with my kids. It was a great day-hope you enjoyed yours!

Today is my Design Team day over at My Craft Spot and I would love to share a quick card with you using My Craft Spot's Birthday Wishes stamp set. 

My card base is 5 1/2 by 5 1/2, cutting the base layer at 5 1/4 and rounding the edges. I used my Cameo and cut this yummy ice cream cone using a cut file from Silhouette. I cut it at 2.45 and embossed the cone layers with the Divine Swirls folder. I added a yummy brown string bow from My Craft Spot and a cool clear button that I purchase from Liz's Paper Boutique. 

The pennants are from the Spellbinders Nested Lacy Pennant dies. The sentiment is stamped with My Craft Spot's Birthday Wishes stamp set onto a SU scallop oval and then layered on the pennants. I finished the card by adding a fun bow using polka dot ribbon from SU that I had in my stash. The whole time making this card, all I thought of is how yummy a ice cream cone would taste about now, so.........I think Arya and I are off to the Dairy Queen, lol!

I hope you like my card and thanks for visiting! Have a great day!

UR the Best!

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion! 

Hi Everyone and Happy Friday! I hope you have all had a great week and looking forward to the weekend! I am looking forward to catching up on some rest.  After being on vacation and running the whole time, I think it's caught up with me.....I am pooped out, lol!

We have another awesome challenge for you at Little Scrap Pieces and hope you come check it out and then come join in:) We'd love to see your creations!!! 

This weeks challenge is: Mothers Day! 
By the way...Happy Mother's Day to all you Mom's out there! I hope you have a fantastic day and
get totally spoiled and pampered!!! 

Here is my project: 

I made a fun folded note card holder that was inspired by a birthday gift I received from my friend and blogger buddy, Karen just a few weeks back. I just loved it and thought it would make such a great gift idea as well. 

I dropped Karen a message and she sent me HERE for all the directions to make this awesome holder.  I used pattern papers from Bo Bunny and Lasting Impressions for this project.

After completing the holder I made 4 cards to fit inside and on the other side I added a smaller note pad of paper and 4 envelopes.

The 4 cards are sized at 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 and made 2 of each design. The flower is My Creative Time's stitched daisy die and the sentiment is My Craft Spot's Butterfly Kisses stamp set. I topped them each off with a fun double bow with some sheer ribbon from my stash :)

Here is a side view to show how folds together nicely and secured with a fun double bow:)

 I made the handle by using a SU oval scalloped punch and tied a fun double bow with ribbon from my friend, Karen at Little Scrap Pieces to keep the bag from opening. I tucked in a ticket tag using My Craft Spot's Ticket Die set and the sentiment is My Craft Spot's Postage Stamps stamp set. I added a small scalloped oval and oval circle to the front of the holder and stamped "UR the Best" with My Craft Spot's Tiny Tags 2 stamp set.

Thanks so much for stopping!

Happy Mother's Day!

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion! 

Hi Everyone! I am back and hoping to make my rounds and visit your blogs to see what you've all been up to :) I will have a little free time over the weekend so if I haven't made it by, I will real soon! 

We had a wonderful time visiting my son who lives in New York. It was our first time in NY so we were pretty overwhelmed but we had a blast!! He lives in Manhattan so it made it easy for us to just catch up with him each morning. We'd either meet at his place or the Waldorf Astoria Hotel which was where we were staying. Wowzers....what a as gorgeous hotel! 

While we were there, we managed to squeeze in game 3 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs between the Islanders and Penguins.  What an awesome game! We are hoping to go back real soon and take in some more places. We kind of ran out of time and didn't get to go to all the places on our list. We would definitely go again.....it was a great place to visit! 

I am missing my craft room like terrible and hoping this weekend I will have a little more time to craft! I  made a quick project this morning to join the Peachy Keen Challenge 13-18 3D Object :: Flowers challenge that is going on along with a few others listed below. Hope you like it! 

Here is my project: 

I made this for baby Arya to give her Mommy (my daughter) for Mother's Day. I started off with a muslin bag that I purchased from 3Girl JAM and stamped this adorable bear on it with PKSC-13 Jan set stamp set and colored it with copics. I added rosy cheeks, freckles and a fun shabby chic paper rose to dress this cutie up some. The sentiments are from My Craft Spot's Tiny Tags 2 stamp set. I topped it off with adding a fun gingham bow a prima flower and shabby chic flower  and then filled the bag with yummy dove milk chocolates. 

I made a matching little 3x3 card. The flower is My Creative Time's stitched daisy die and the sentiment is My Craft Spot's Happy Easter stamp set. I love the font on this set! 

I hope you like my project:)
