      Jun 30th

      Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with one more project for June with Scrapping For Less.

      picsart_06-26-06.03.57

      Today I used the Stampedous Stamp set Turtle Fun. I stamped the image using MFT Extreme Black Ink and colored with alcohol markers. I used a set of The Paper Cut dies from my stash to cut out the panels, and the center pale blue panel is from the Lawn Fawn Watercolor 6″x6″ paper pad. I used Cornflower and Soft Sky Inks from Hero Arts to blend the background on my main panel.

      I used Morning Dew Nuvo Crystal Drops for the eyes, and Limoncello Nuvo Jewel Drops on the portholes on the ship. I used Crystal Stickles from my stash for the air bubbles.

      Be sure to stop on over to the Scrapping For Less website and check out not only the items I have highlighted in this post, but also the rest of the fun crafty items in store for you.

      Use #FOTMundertheseababies in your social media posts for your chance to have your project highlighted on all Scrapping for Less social media! We want to see what you make!

    • SNEAK for June 2019 FOTM

      Posted at 12:01 am by Katie Williams
      Jun 27th

      Good Morning and Happy Thursday fellow crafters!

      Katie here from 2CraftyKaties to share a sneak from the June 2019 Flavor of the Month kit!

      I used the stamps and paper from collection 3. 

      When I saw the otters and then the sentiment I instantly thought of Yin and Yang!  So, I VERY carefully stamped them together and used my scan and cut to get this image!  I used the following copic markers on the otters and in the space between them (I didn’t want the white space to be a focal point); BG23, E11, E25, E33, E35.

      The layout was inspired by this sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches #509:

      Remember to share your June “Under the Sea Babies” Flavor of the Month Card Kit creations with us and use the hashtag #FOTMundertheseababies in your social media!  We will pick someone who uses that hashtag and highlight them on all of Scrapping for Less’ social media.

      Hi Crafters, it’s Stacy from CraftaholicMomma today on the Scrapping for Less blog. I’ve been thoroughly enchanted by all the “slimline” cards people are making so I’ve been making a few myself. I told Teresa I had this idea to take all of the critters (aside from one or two) and make this mesmerizing under water magical scene. I think I could live under water if I had all of these beautiful creatures for neighbors.

      You are going to LOVE this kit!! In fact I predict you’ll go bonkers for it!!

      My card measures 3 1/2″ by 8 1/2″.

      That’s a 7″ x 8 1/2″ piece of card stock scored at 3 1/2″ on the 7″ side. They fit in either a #9 or #10 (business) size envelope.

    • Newton’s Nook Designs and Stampendous

      Posted at 5:08 pm by Katie Williams
      Jun 23rd

      Good Morning and Happy Thursday!  Katie here from 2CrafyKaties to share with you TWO different cards using Newton’s Nook Designs “Vitamin Sea” stamp set & “Seashells” stencil and Stampendous “Cling Jellyfish” stamp !

      First I have a set of six cards using Newton’s Nook Designs “Vitamin Sea” stamp set & “Seashells” stencil.

       Here is what I created: 

      These first 6 cards were inspired by video that Jennifer McGuire posted about a week ago.  I used my Gina K 3.5”x 3.5” wreath builder template with the Ranger Distress Oxide inks and stenciled the corners of the cards.  Next, I cut paper 3.75”x 3.75” and shaded the outside edges.  Lastly, I cut 4”x 8” cardstock for my card base.  I LOVE this technique that Jennifer shared with us in her video.  I am looking forward to using this technique in the future.

      Here is what I used: 

      Scrapping for Less

      Newton’s Nook Designs – “Vitamin Sea” stamp set

      Newton’s Nook Designs – “Seashells” stencil

      Ranger – Distress Oxide “Tumbled Glass” ink

      Ranger – Distress Oxide “Carved Pumpkin” ink

      Ranger Distress Ink – “Peeled Paint”, “Stormy Sky”, “Tea Dye”, & “Seedless Preserves”

      Nuvo Glitter Drops – “White Blizzard”

      Gina K “Wreath Builder” template

      My next card I struggled with.  I just wasn’t sure how I was going to put it together.  I started by stamping out the “Cling Jellyfish” from Stampendous and using my Scan n’ Cut to cut it out.  I then took the “Tumbled Glass” Distress Oxide ink and shaded the whole the jellyfish.  Then, I took the “Carved Pumpkin” and pressed the ink pad into an acrylic block to use as a paint pallet.  I then painted the jelly fish in “Carved Pumpkin” and highlighted the circles with the “White Blizzard” Nuvo Glitter Drops.  I then cut a card base 4”x 5.25” and “double stamped or 2nd generation stamping” the jellyfish (inking the image and stamping once on scrap paper and then stamping a second time on the card base).  Lastly, I cut a card base 4.25”x 5.5” and shaded with the “Carved Pumpkin” Distress Oxide ink.  Once all of this was done, I used foam squares to pop the jelly fish and assembled the card.

      Here is what I created:

    • An Otterly Great Sneak Peek

      Posted at 9:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Jun 23rd

      Hey, everyone – it’s Lynnea! I’m so excited about the June Flavor of the Month card kit from Scrapping for Less! Stay tuned! – the whole kit will be revealed this Saturday, June 29th! We would love to see what you make once you get your June FOTM kit! Share your projects on social media using the hashtag #FOTMundertheseababies for a chance to be highlighted on the Scrapping for Less social media accounts! For now though, I have a little sneak peek at one of the stamp sets included in the kit!

      June Sneak

      I just LOVE otters! They’re so cute! Of course I had to use this stamp set for my sneak peek! I stamped the little fish image in a strip across my card and colored them in with light yellow and blue markers. I colored the otter image with alcohol markers and popped him and the sentiment up with foam squares. To finish off the card I used some pearls from the kit and scattered them across the card.

      June Sneak 3

      I hope you’re super excited about this kit! I sure am!! See you soon!

    • FOTM Sneak Peek!! June 2019

      Posted at 9:26 am by Christine Patterson
      Jun 22nd

      Hello Everyone! It’s Christine with Pattercrafts here to give you a sneak peek of the Scrapping for Less Flavor of the Month June 2019 Card Kit!

      I think I tried to squeeze all that is included in this collection onto this card! First I trimmed down 2 of the pattern papers using a stitched rectangle die and a scallop border die from my stash. When using 2 different pattern papers I like to add a little interest between the two patterns. The paper is busy and I didn’t want this turtle to get lost so I grabbed a tag that was laying on my desk from a previous project. The tag was a great excuse to grab the bubble stencil and some Peacock Feather distress ink. This stencil was perfect and I loved the variety of sizes in the bubbles; when I was done with the stenciling, I brushed the edges of the tag with the distress ink. I put the tag aside to dry and stamped out this really cute turtle from the stamp set included in the collection. I used copic markers to color the turtle then used Wink of Stella glitter brush all over the entire image.

      To finish my card, I grabbed some twine from my stash to add to the tag – it was also a great way to tie on one of the metal charms. I popped the turtle with some foam adhesive and then used clear Nuvo Crystal Drops to add a little dimension to the spots on the turtle’s shell.

      Use the hashtag #FOTMundertheseababies in your social media showing projects you made using the June “Under the Sea Babies” Flavor of the Month Card Kit. We will pick someone who uses that hashtag and highlight them on all of Scrapping for Less’ social media. We want to see what you make!

      Thank You all for stopping by today! I hope you enjoy and get excited for this month’s kit!!
