Terrific Tuesday Challenge-- It's in the BAG...




Hello and Merry Christmas,

Today is our very last Terrific Tuesday Challenge of the YEAR!! I honestly cannot believe how fast this year has flown by. I have already started making so many resolutions for 2012. My house has been struck by those nasty cold weather colds right now so we are all trying to get better so we can enjoy Christmas.

Scrappy Mom's Stamps is now carrying these absolutely adorable bags by WhiskerGraphics. We decided to all use the bags as our challenge for today. I happened to use the Bitty Chevron Bag to make a super cute gift card holder. I intended on sending this with my son for his high school teacher(s) with a coffee gift card. He informed me that it isn't "cool" giving gifts in HIGH SCHOOL.. I feel bad because I know how hard our teachers work but I have to honor his wishes.. darn. I made the rosette and the layering tags by using an SVG file from SVG attic. I love love these cuts. I used the rosette and the tags from the gift card holder and they were super easy to put together. The sentiment is from our A Holiday to Remember set. The tag on the inside is cut from Tags, Boxes and More. We hope you will join us in creating anything centered around a "bag"... You will be entered to win a Scrappy Mom's stamp set!

I wish you and your families a very Merry Christmas! Thank you so much for stopping by! Our next challenge will be on January 3, 2012!!!

Scrappy Mom's Sneak-For You Bookmark



Hello Everyone!

I hope you are enjoying all the fun projects using our brand new Scrappy Mom's stamp sets. There is just SOO much to create with them!

I am a book lover so when I discovered this ADORABLE book mark over at the Silhouette Store I just knew I had to try it. I used the new Hooray for Birthday's set to stamp this tiny little tag. This set can be used for so many things. I also want to recommend one of the best reads of the season.. CHRISTMAS JARS by Jason F. Wright. My time is so limited these days that I am still NOT finished but so far it is an amazing book. If you want something that gives you HOPE and inspiration during the holiday season this will do it. It would take the average person an hour or so to finish.. but in ten minute increments.. a week tops!

Thanks for stopping by....Happy Holidays and Happy Sunday!

Scrappy Mom's Sneak-- You Make Me Smile!






Hi Friends!

We are so very happy to announce two more stamp sets here at Scrappy Mom's! They are Dancing in Circles and Hooray for Birthdays! We are super super excited about both of them. For everyone that purchases the new Dancing in Circles set.. you will have a chance to win a 1-1/2 inch circle punch and a scallop punch by Fiskars! These punches coordinate perfect with these stamps. We will put your name in a drawing and choose in two weeks.

Today I made a 3-D camera from Lettering Delights! I love love cameras and LOVED my old polaroid and Le-Clic. I thought this sentiment went perfect with it. This is the cutest cut and can hold treats, gift cards or anything you can imagine. I was inspired by this classic polaroid !

We hope you love the stamps as much as we do and please stop by all week to see what the design team has created! We are so happy to have our guest designer KRISTY with us this month. You have to check out her GORGEOUS Gingy banner... Thanks Kristy!

Thanks for visiting today!

Terrific Tuesday Challenge-- Merry Christmas Sleigh




Hi Friends,

I am so sorry I have been so lax in posting! I am so excited that today is another Terrific Tuesday Challenge here at Scrappy Mom's! I have had such a hard time accomplishing things these days, so I was relieved to have a challenge that would inspire me to finish my daughter's therapists gifts.I LOVED this sleigh from SVG ATTIC! I was actually fortunate to win a grand prize from SVG attic. I was beyond excited because I love every single cut they have! THANK YOU SVG attic. You have to check out there line if you have not done so already! This is a sleigh that also has it's own gift card holder. The itty bitty present is also included in this cut. I LOVE it... The therapists are getting Bath and Body works gift cards and of course some yummy antibacterial pocket soap.

So we decided to just go with a general Christmas theme for this Tuesday's challenge. We hope you will join us and post something you are making for the holidays by linking your project to the Scrappy Mom's website. I used the Winter Wishes stamp set and our brand new Christmas twist twine from Divine twine. You can purchase yours HERE!

We hope you are having a wonderful holiday season. Please check back with us all week because we have some exciting Scrappy Mom's products headed your way!

Merry Christmas!
