Summer Lovin'

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion!!


I hope you are all having a great day!! I am sorry I have been a bit behind commenting and getting to my blog, but it's just been a bit crazy!! A lot of my spare time right now is going towards working on projects for my daughter's wedding which is this fall. I am working on invites and decorations along with the bridesmaids for the upcoming shower.  It's been fun but not leaving me any time to craft for my blog :(

We took in a Minnesota Twins game last night and oh my gosh, was it a beautiful evening!  Great time by all!! We are also enjoying our visit with our son, who is home on vacation til next week. My boys and hubby are taking off to Canada along with 14 others to take in some good fishing. So, I am hoping to get in my craft room some while they are gone....yippy!

I was able to find a little time while Arya was napping to get in my craft room this afternoon to create a card. My card today is using a fun new cartridge that I just purchased called Paper Dolls Teen Scene. I can see having a lot of fun creating with this one.. :) 

My card base  and base layer are cut using the Spellbinders Grand Scallop Rectangles. I embossed the smaller white scallop mat with a sizzix folder that came in the Birthday set #4 set and inked it with Tim Holtz-old paper. 



I cut the girl at 4 1/2 and the boy at 4 3/4 from the Paper Dolls Teen Scene along with all the layers. The tag is from Spellbinders Fancy tag set and the sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps ~Sun Kissed. To finish the card, I added a fun double bow, twine and button.

I am entering this in the following challenges:
1.) Getting Cricky-Simple Sunday ~Challenge-Summer time
2.) Paper Playtime ~Challenge-Vacation card
3.) Docerela Creations ~Challenge #15-Summer 

Thanks for visiting, 
Sherrie K

  4. Sorry Sherrie that I have been missing. My grandson graduated on Sunday and I have been recovering from 4 days of preparing for that. I do want you to know that I have seen the Father's Day and Smile cards as well as this one. All of them are so wonderful. You always do a great job.

    Hugs, Pam
