  Oct 19th

  Hi all! A quick sneak peek of October’s Flavor of the Month! I am so ready to get into Christmas card making mode! Ok, I’ll admit it I’m already there (been there about a month now). This coming Saturday our Flavor of the Month Card kit for October will be revealed! Don’t forget that if you want to be sure to get one sign up for your subscription.

  

  With the Flavor of the Month Card Kit you have two choices: Banana Split which includes  five mini collections, 4 envelopes, and six sheets of cardstock.

• Fall is Coming at Scrapping For Less!

  Posted at 9:00 am by Kimberly Smith

  Oct 5th

  Hi all! I hope you are finding yourself easing into a wonderful weekend. I am up today with a couple of cards I made with September’s Flavor of the Month Kit. I was so excited to get my hands on this kit and I had to MAKE myself step away from it because you know, life.

  As soon as I opened my kit I dug into the Frightful Collection. I LOVE HALLOWEEN! I wish it was a tradition to send Halloween cards to friends and family like it is to send Christmas cards because Halloween cards are so much fun to make. This card came together so quickly with the cute little die cut characters included in the collection. I had such a hard time choosing which one to use, then I had a group and then I let the sketch dictate who made it on the card. For the card below I used the Paper Play Sketches #52.

  

  The next card is from the Cozy Fall Collection. I pulled the paper out and looked it over and immediately I wanted to paper piece that sweater stamp…and then I realized that wasn’t going to work because it is a stamp stamp. Then I thought..ooh yes I can so I traced the stamp and paper pieced it anyway. I love it when what you see in your head works out! Sketch #194 from Operation Write Home was the one used for the card below.     Often when card making I find myself always reaching for the same ink to stamp a sentiment but this time I reached for blue ink and I knew it had been too long since I had changed things up because of the level of excitement I felt at using another color.

  I am looking forward to digging into the other two collections which I’ll post those cards on my instagram account at @cardmakingblonde. Below will be the links to the Double Dip and Banana Split kits which are down into the single digits so get one while you can!

  

  

  Thanks so much for stopping in and checking out September’s Flavor of the Month Kit “Fall is Coming!” and have a great weekend!

  Kim 🙂

• November Flavor of the Month Kit – Banana Split Cards

  Posted at 9:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner

  Nov 27th

  Hi, everyone! It’s Lynnea and I have a video using the November 2018 Flavor of the Month card kit. The kit is called Sophisticated and Elegant and I’m going to share two cards using the Banana Split level kit – it’s totally worth the upgrade! You’ll get an exclusive Scrapping for Less stamp set, a Sunny Studios die, some gems from Kaiser Craft, and a white gel pen in addition to the four collections you get in the Double Dip subscription! You can’t beat the value! Head over to the Scrapping for Less store to start your subscription!

   

  

   

  I used the Puttin’ on the Spritz stamp set from the Banana Split level and stamped the perfume bottle and sentiment in the center of my card. I wanted it to look like the bottle was spraying color, so I added a drop of watercolor near where the spray would originate and blew air through a straw to move the color out. I have to say….it didn’t work. Haha! But I never scrap a card! I used my paintbrush and helped the paint along!

   

  

   

  I made two cards – one with yellow and pink and one with mint and blue. I colored the bottles with some gold Gansai Tambi watercolors as well as the regular pan colors. You can use whatever watercolors you have on hand!

   

  

   

  I added some watercolor spatters and some pearls that came in the Banana Split level kit to finish off the cards! Watch the full process video below!

• The Greeting Farm ~ You’re Awesome!

  Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler

  Apr 20th

  Hello! Crystal here with a super fun card using The Greeting Farm’s Mini-Remix Boys. How cute is this stamp set?! I am loving it! I think it’s the perfect stamp set for me to use for my three boys!

  

  I was thinking I’d make a card to help encourage my second oldest to keep up the good work on his school work to finish up the year. I started by die cutting the sidewalk. I used a stitched border on either side to cut it out. I then masked it in sections and blended a bit of  Pumice Stone distress ink. I then cut a piece of green card stock from my leftovers from past card kits to fit the lower portion of the card. I adhered the sidewalk piece to the green card stock and trimmed the entire piece. I then die cut the houses from leftover black card stock and set them aside. I trimmed the houses and adhered them to the back of the green card stock. I cut a 4 x 5-1/4″ piece of white card stock and blended some clouds using a stencil and Tumbled Glass distress ink. I adhered the white cloud background to a black piece of card stock that measures 4-1/8 x 5-3/8″. I adhered the whole grass/sidewalk piece to the bottom of the white card stock. I then adhered the whole piece to a white card base.

  

  Now to stamp this cute little boy stamp… I stamped him, the skateboard and the soccer ball using Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored it in using Copic markers {Skin – E50, E51, E53; Hair – E79, E77, E74; Shirts – N0, N1, R29, R89; Jeans – B97, B99; Shoes – R29, N0; Skateboard – Y06, YR68, R29; Soccer ball – N0}. I fussy cut all the pieces and then went around the edge with a Memento tuxedo black marker to cover the white edges. I set those aside and then die cut the ‘you’re’ portion of the Lawn Fawn sentiment die from the Banana Split subscription of the March 2018 Flavor of the Month card kit. I stamped the ‘awesome’ sentiment on black card stock using VersaMark ink and heat embossed some ultra fine white embossing powder. I trimmed the ‘you’re’ sentiment and adhered it to the card using Ranger Multi Medium Matte. I fussy cut the ‘awesome’ sentiment into a banner and adhered it to the card using mono multipurpose liquid glue. Once I had those where I wanted them, I adhered the little boy and his accessories. There you have it… how sweet is this card?! I think my son will get a kick out of it!

  Thanks for stopping by!

  See ya next time.

• A Dream is a Wish

  Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler

  Mar 7th

  Hello! Crystal here with a really quick and cute card using some leftover pieces from the February Castles & Dreams card kit.

  

  I used papers from Collection Two and the other elements are from the Banana Split subscription. I stamped the sentiment from the Castles and Dreams Sentiment stamp set using VersaMark ink and heat embossed some fine black embossing powder. I die cut the piece using a wonky rectangle die. I adhered the two pieces of rainbow paper left over from the kit and then I added the two stickers leftover from the Doodlebug Designs Rainbow Doodlepop. I adhered the whole panel to a white card base and there you have it. I love how easily it came together and I think it’s pretty cute!

  Thanks for stopping by!

  See ya next time.

  • bent or mangled cardstock
  • most popular levels
  • website code for perks

   

  

  We have made huge strides in expediting the shipping process. We are continuing to make changes that will make the shipping time frame go even smoother.

  

  In an effort to assure that your cardstock arrives unharmed we are taking an extra precaution and adding a DO NOT BEND OR FOLD stamp on every package. If you have experienced this issue please speak to you postal worker as well so they will be aware that this package should not be forced to fit in your mail container.

  

  

  Ya’ll have spoken and we have listened. Turns out your favorite levels are the Double Dip and Banana Split. Therefore, beginning in January 2018 we will be offering Double Dip and Banana Split Kits. (This will help shipping get faster too.)

  Teresa will be reaching out to those of you who are currently subscribed to the Single Scoop or Deluxe Kits in order to find out what you would like to do going forward.

Once a month you will receive an email with a code for a 5% discount on one purchase that month to scrappingforless.blog. *Flavor of the Month kits are excluded from this offer. So please make sure we have your correct email address for us to send your code each month!

  We want to take this time to let you know how much we appreciate all of our customers for helping 2 gals see a dream come true. And it also would not be possible without our amazing Design Team. We are planning some fabulous kits for 2018! We hope you enjoy each and every kit!
