SnC Furever Friends Blog Hop!

Good morning!  Welcome to my stop on the SnC Furever Friends Blog Hop!


If you arrived here from Sandi's blog at Slightly Off Center, you are in the right place. If you just happened to stop by (Hi!!), you can start at Suzanne's blog to see all the wonderful creations along the hop. Here is the complete list in case you get sidetracked by awesome creations on the way :)


Suzanne - Scrap With Suzy 
Kristie - Scrap, Color, Read and Repeat (You are here!)

You don't want to miss seeing all the "furry" projects we have for you, as well as chances to win some awesome blog candy!

There are 7 of us in today's hop. We are all online scrapbooking friends in a Yahoo group called Scrappin-N-Chattin.  We love to chat, share our creations and challenge ourselves and each other to create lots of wonderful pages, cards and projects! We do tend to get chatty but that is part of the fun :)  We have so many activities, challenges and prizes to keep you scrappin' those memories. 

One of the activities we have is a rak called It Girl.  There is a group or two of names and each group starts with one person and then that person will select a name and send a RAK gift off the person's wishlist.  The recipient then will pick a name from that list, shop and send a RAK to another name and so on. It's always fun to get a surprise in your mailbox!

You can visit our group {HERE}! We love to meet new people :) We also love to blog hop and share lots of inspiration from around the web.  For today's hop, we each created a "furry" project.  Instead of scrapping my adorable "baby" Amber, I chose to do a bookmark and a few cards. All tutorial links and supply lists are located way at the bottom since this is a long post!

First up we have my first ever corner bookmark! It was so much fun to make and I see a lot of them in my future :) 


Next up is an easel card. It's one of my favorite 'fun' folds. It's so easy and makes a nice impact on a card. Especially when you have a larger image like mine. 


My final creation is a card using a new stamp I bought a few months ago.  I couldn't resist this cutie and her puppy! The layout of the card is using Sweet Sunday Sketch #160. 


And for the heck of it, here is a picture of my girl :) She loves to hang out behind the couch cushion LOL. She was being a lazy doggy yesterday morning. 


It wouldn't be a blog hop without candy, right?!

Here is what I am offering:


For your chance to win these awesome Basic Grey goodies (and believe me, you do *want* them as they are hard to find since they are JoAnn Store exclusives!!), please leave a comment on this post.  If you would like to become a follower (if you aren't already), I would love for you to do that but it's not a requirement to win.  I also have a fan page for my blog on Facebook, if you would like to follow me there. Click {HERE} for that page. 

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! I hope you enjoyed viewing my creations and will visit again soon.  Prize winners will be announced on Thursday (mine will be posted at night since I work during the day).

Your next stop on the hop is April at Scrapper Forever!

PTT 11

Yes, another easel card LOL!! This one has been made for almost a month, I made it for my mom to give my neighbor for her birthday.  I so love how it came out!  It was my first time using the MFT Lovin’ from the Oven set, it was fun to paper piece the image!  The sentiment on the card base is from the Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps birthday greetings set – my favorite go to sentiments set!

To play along with PTT, link up your newly created ‘anything goes’ birthday card (with a birthday greeting/sentiment on the card front) to the PTT blog by next Monday night. If you’d like to be considered for the Top 3, have your card posted by 8pm EST on Sunday.

PTT #9

Happy Tuesday!

Today’s PTT challenge is an easy one – the popular Anything Goes Birthday, just remember to include a birthday sentiment/greeting on the front to qualify!

I made this card for my neighbor’s birthday a few weeks ago. She loved it :) You can find a tutorial for easel cards here.

PTT9-Milli bday from me

I used the Pet’s Place stamp set and Project Pantry kit from Taylored Expressions for most of the card. I add the stamped greetings from a Verve set, the name escapes me at the moment and I’m not sure where I put my notebook lol

To play along and see some wonderful samples from my team and the July Guest Designer, please check out the Party Time Tuesdays blog for all the details. Links are on my left sidebar as well.

Have a great day!

My first easel cards!

Today I am finally getting a chance to show off my newest thing - easel cards!

I made this one a few weeks ago and I refuse to give it away LOL!! I really love how it turned out and it matches my room perfectly :)


I got this Northwoods stamp a few months ago and thought it would be perfect for the space I had to fill on the card front. I also finally got my flower soft to stick, I used Glossy Accents - it's a little shiny under the flower soft but I'm just thrilled it stuck. Seems like anything else I tried didn't work. The dp is BG Infuse.


My mom liked the card when I showed it to her, so I decided to make her one for Mother's Day. She loves lilacs so when I saw this cute digi from Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps, I just had to get it! Cocoa was so much fun to color!

I used my BG Green at Heart, love this paper!! I had to get another stack of it even though I didn't finish the first one yet, that's how much I love it...this time I also got the matching ribbon doilies, can't wait to try those out!

I spotted a lot of challenges for easel cards this week, I'll have to get busy and make a few new ones!

Have a great day!
