Welcome to our Silly Season Blog Hop and Challenge Blog Launch!!

Welcome to the First Paper Patch Crafts Blog Hop and the launch of our new Challenge Blog!!!!





We are really pleased to have you join us. We have great little prizes on each blog that Paper Patch Crafts has provided and a grand prize on our new Challenge Blog. In order to be included in the random drawings you must become a follower on each blog and leave a comment on our silly season posts. Then when you hop over to the Challenge blog you need to become a follower and leave a comment there as well. I have 5 projects to share with you.











The first 3 were all created using the sill season line Which is available in Annes store and here is the link to the store http://stores.ebay.com/Paper-Patch-Crafts?_rdc=1 ( warning I did get a little silly with the tree card as you will see) totally not like me :) On the layout I did ink around the edges and I used a Tim Holtz Die to make the flower But every piece of paper and embellishment are Kaiser Craft Silly Season. The stocking card I did use my Cricut Machine with the Christmas Cheer Cartridge to create the layered stocking but once again it is all Silly Season. Now for the Christmas tree card... I got silly with the silly season. I think that is enough said on that one!!







Now the next 2 cards were done using Websters Pages Papers and Embellishments The embellishments and lace are available in Annes Store and she does have a prebuy going on the facebook fan page also for the Websters Pages line. So please check it out. It is a beautiful line! Here is the link to check out that prebuy:

Christmas Card Challenge

Paper Patch Crafts is having a Christmas card challenge on there fan page!

Here is my entry into the contest

I used Cricut Imagine cuts from Enjoy the seasons and the snowflakes are from winter lace.

The paper and trinket are BoBunny.

The stitching tape can be purchased from PaperPatch Crafts as well as the Kaisercraft lace

I distressed the edges then inked them with vintage photo ink.

Nothing says holiday season to me more than snowmen and snow flakes!!

I also used stickles glitter glue and Bobunny rhinestones.

Happy Crafting everyone!!!

Flower Shoppe and Nates ABC'c Cricut Cartridges

Hi ladies!!

I have 2 duplicate cartridges sitting in front of me that need new homes!

Nates is still in the blister pack Flower Shoppe is open but has not been used and has the seal over the cartridge and has the rewards certificate of course.

This is what happens when you are overworked and tired!! lol

But I am willing to take any fair offers on them and they are both awesome cartridges!

Just contact me at :

scrapbookingforfun@msn.com

Now I am off to do a challenge card for Paper Patch Crafts and will post it on my blog later!!

Fall card and Baby shower card

Both are cards that I made yesterday for a challenge that Anne was having on her fan page. There is still a challenge going on for a cricut lite cartridge and here is the link so you can check it out!

https://www.facebook.com/#!/media/set/?set=a.10150275491487186.333349.184726517185&type=1

It is for the Hoot and Holler Cart!
Unfortunately I can't participate in that one even though the page maps sketch is amazing.

Never enough time to do all that I would like on my days off from work!

O.k now the fall card is made with BoBunny Papers and Trinkets. I love Bo Bunny but the trinkets are a little hard to find they sell out everywhere pretty quickly! The flower is of course Prima.

The baby Shower card

The base is PaperTrey and the paper for the cuts is DCWV.

All of the cuts are from the Baby Steps cartridge. I love that cartridge!!
The Stamp for the face is Peachykeen stamps.

The silver It's a girl heart is from Michaels and is a charm in the jewelry department. It came in a package of 10 I think. I purchased them almost 3 years ago when my 1st granddaughter was born.
Well I had better close for now and finish up the last details on the 2 cards I am working on today. I need them this week!!!
Hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend!!

Going on a vacation

Wanted to let everyone know that I will not be posting for the next 2or 3 weeks. I am going to SanDiego for 2 weeks to help my daughter with the new baby and Kaleah. I will have lots of pics to take and scrap when I get back home and settled in and back to work.

I hope everyone has a wonderful August and a lot of time to Scrap :) If this blog reaches 300 followers in my absence then I will do random.org upon my return and get that blog candy sent!!

It needs to have a new home before I get tempted by some of the beautiful summer colors!!

Happy Scraping everyone and enjoy the last weeks of summer !!
