    • Summer Daisies Paper Pad ~ Post It Note Holder

      Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler
      Aug 30th
      Hello there crafty friend! Crystal here from Tawny Owl Paperie with a fun swap that I made for fellow design team member Stacy using the beautiful Summer Daisies paper pad that was recently released at Scrapping for Less. I combined the papers with some other products in my stash…
      let’s have a look!
      I started with a cereal box… yup! You read that right. I cut all of my pieces for the post it note holder from the cereal box first. Here’s a link to the tutorial I used… Easy Note Pad Holder Book.
      I used the cereal box in place of the chipboard coasters mentioned in the tutorial.
      I covered the cereal box pieces with pretty polka dot papers from Stampin’ Up and then used the gorgeous Summer Daisies from SFL to decorate and embellish the other pieces. The beautiful ribbon is from Papertrey Ink… seriously a mash up of products from my stash! The daisy is one of my digital stamps available at Polka Dot Orchard… called Whoops a Daisy. I printed it out, colored it with a few copic markers {C00, C1, C2, Y11, Y13, Y35, YG11} and then fussy cut it. I couldn’t find quite the right sentiment, so I just printed this one off from my computer on card stock and fussy cut it.
      The side view… I only had a couple post it note pads in coordinating colors.
      This holder could hold a lot of post it notes!
      The inside… isn’t it cute?! I’ve had that mini pen from the Dollar Spot at Target for years… it works perfectly with this holder!
      To clean up the edges of my patterned papers I used a sanding block that I’ve had in my stash forever. I believe it’s from Stampin’ Up as well.
      That’s it! It was so fun to create something to send off to a crafty friend!
      I definitely need to make more of these!
      Check out all the new fabulous paper pads recently released at SFL here… New Paper Pads!!
      This paper hoarder has to have them all! Lol..
      Thanks so much for stopping by!
      See ya next time.
      Inky Hugs,
      Crystal

    • August 2020 FOTM ~ Bubbles Galore ~ One Last Sneak Peek!

      Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler
      Aug 28th

       

      Hello there crafty friend! Crystal here from Tawny Owl Paperie with a Sneak Peek of the fantastic August 2020 FOTM Card Kit with a Bubbles Galore theme!! I’m sharing some of the fun products available in the Banana Split Subscription and the punny stamps from Collection Two in this sweet shaker card I created!

      I went with a mostly pink monochromatic theme for my card… but colored up a brown chicken so it would pop on the card. I don’t make too many shaker cards… for whatever reason they don’t usually work out for me, but this one did! I had so much fun creating it!
      I have a process video for this card on the SFL YouTube Channel. You can check that out here…

      The FOTM card kits have been selling out quickly each month! Be sure to subscribe so you don’t miss out on receiving this kit! And don’t forget about the reveal and hop tonight at midnight EDT… the design team and our guest have lots of fun inspiration to share!
      Thanks so much for stopping by!
      See ya next time.
      Inky Hugs,
      Crystal

    • Sneak Peek Week of August FOTM Card Kit!

      Posted at 9:00 am by kimmyfsmithyahoocom
      Aug 27th

      Hello crafters!

      Kim here @CardmakingBlonde bringing you a sneak peek for August’s Flavor of the Month card kit. One of the ingredients you will receive in this card kit is acetate sheets, so I used mine to create a shaker card. I’ll keep it simple because the big release is coming on August 29th at midnight and there will be a whole lot of hopping going on!

      Except for my little embossing buddy up their in the left hand corner all of this is in the Banana Split level card kit.
      After making the shaker card I stamped out the images and the sentiments which I used circle dies to cut them out to keep the bubble look going.
      Used a strip from the sheet of patterned paper I cut to add a finishing touch to the inside of the card along with the Happy Birthday sentiment.

      For the last several months the Flavor of the Month card kit has sold out. Don’t be left sad and empty handed! Make sure to sign up for your subscription (this way you also don’t have to try to stay up until midnight if you aren’t a night owl). Of course if you are a risk taker there will be the option to buy a one-time kit as well.

      I look forward to seeing you at the hop!

      Kim 🙂

    • Day 3 Sneak Peek of the new August Flavor of the Month Card Kit

      Posted at 9:25 pm by Stacy Tiedemann
      Aug 25th

      Hello, it’s Stacy from Craftaholicmomma up today on the Scrapping for Less blog with Day #3 of Sneak Peeks for the new Flavor of the Month Card Kit that is soon to be released this coming Saturday, August 29th. It’s is super cute!!

      For details about how to purchase or get signed up for a monthly subscription CLICK HERE.

      Today I used the papers from Collection 3 and the stamp set from Collection 4, mixing it up a bit. That’s what I like about this kit. Each Collection is a mini theme in itself but they can easily be intertwined.

      I made a slider card using just simple punches. You can use Dies or just hand cut with a sharp blade and a ruler.

      The boat and sail are made from a circle punch and a mini flag punch. The clouds are from My Favorite Things.

      Thanks so much for visiting,

      Happy Monday All! I thought I’d start the work week off with a chuckle; check out this rooster!!! He’s part of the Country Bubbles stamp set found in Collection 2 in the August 2020 Flavor of the Month Card kit! I love the vintage feel of the pattern paper in this collection and we get some ephemera!!

      I decorated the inside of the card with 2 more pieces of ephemera from the collection and stamped one of the sentiments from the Country Bubbles stamp set and the bubble gum pack image, also found in that stamp set.

      Stay tuned for more Sneak Peeks throughout the week and the full reveal on Saturday, August 29th at 12:00am (EST) — I know I’ll be staying up late on Friday to see all the inspiration from the Design Team!

    • July 2020 FOTM Card Kit ~ Tropical Fruit Collection

      Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler
      Aug 21st
      Hello there crafty friend! Crystal here from Tawny Owl Paperie with one more card using the beautiful Tropical Fruit Collection of the July 2020 FOTM Card Kit!! I had fun designing this card with almost a monochromatic feel with all the green papers, but a splash of yellow and pink!
      I really like the unique design of this card with the focal image to the side. Mix matching the pretty Tropical Fruit papers for this card was fun, too!
      I really love this sentiment… so punny! I also enjoyed coloring these pretty pineapples. I used the following Copic markers: Y11, Y13, Y35, E23, RV34, RV91, YG03, YG11, YG13, YG17, YG63. I fussy cut the pineapples and adhered the larger one to the card front. I then popped up the smaller one using foam squares. I also popped up the sentiment and finished off the card with three pink enamel dots. I adhered the finished card front to a white card base. I think it turned out pretty cute!
      That’s it for me this time.
      Thanks so much for stopping by!
      See ya next time.
      Inky Hugs,
      Crystal

    • Have A Red Christmas from SFL!

      Aug 20th

      Hello my fellow crafters, I am so glad you are here today! I cannot believe we are so close to September and before we know it we’ll all be staring down Christmas wondering where the time went. Scrapping For Less has been creating beautiful paper pads and one of the newest ones is “A Red Christmas” and it’s a must have!

      The card above shows off several of the sheets from the “A Red Christmas” paper pad. I just couldn’t bring myself to cover up the ornaments on that main middle panel which is why I went with die cutting the sentiment and letting that be the focal point. Originally cut out in kraft paper it wasn’t showing up enough for my taste so out came Nuvo drops in white to make sure the sentiment would stand out. Also added some dots to the little tab at the top right.

      Below is a pic of all the recently released paper pads. Grab yours before they’re gone!

      Thank you for stopping in today. I wish you time for yourself this week to do whatever makes your heart happy.

      Just keep creating,

      Kim 🙂
