Precious Little One

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion! 

Good Morning everyone and Happy Friday!
I am SO glad it's almost the weekend! I am looking forward to getting a lot accomplished this weekend! A little cleaning, some organizing and maybe a little baking! We also have some new furniture being delivered today from Hom Furniture so I am busy  rearranging and preparing for that to arrive, yippee! Super excited for that!
On Sunday, we have plans to go to a friends house for the Super Bowl party. So, I am hoping to get in my craft room sometime tomorrow to put together a little gift to bring for hosting the party. What's your plans for the weekend?

Today I would like to share a card with you using some fun Peachy Keen and
My Craft Spot stamp sets. 

The pattern papers are from MME-Love me collection. I used Kraft card stock for the base of the card. I cut 3 different panels from pattern paper and layering them on for the base layer.

I stamped the bear using the PK159 Thinking of You Bear and then fussy cut around it. I colored in the eye, added some rosy cheeks and cute little freckles. The pink heart is cut from the Create A Critter 2 cartridge at 2 1/2 and then glittered around the edges with sparkling ice glitter. I stamped the adorable sentiment with My Craft Spot's Bundle of Joy stamp set.

The super cute banner was created by using My Craft Spot's Tiny Banners & Toppers metal die. I tied it on with cherry cupcake trendy twine and tied bows on the end.

I finished with a pink/white gingham double bow, a cherry cupcake twine bow and a fun button embellishment from Recollections.

I am entering this in the following challenges:
1.) Simon Says Anything Goes w/twine or string
2.) Fantabulous Cricut Challenge #195 Mix & Match
3.) The Pink Elephant Challenge #235 Love

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion! 

Hi Everyone! 

Today is my DT day over at My Craft Spot and I have a quick Valentine card to share with you using My Craft Spot's Build a Valentine stamp set. Another awesome set for your Valentine cards, layouts and/or treats.

I started with cutting a pink panel and adhered it to the white card base. I embossed the red layer with the honeycomb folder for some texture. I added a little heart border using a Martha Stewart punch and then another border using My Craft Spot's Fancy Edges metal die.

The heart was cut at 2 1/4 from the Sweethearts cartridge and another one cut at 

1 1/4 with Kraft paper. I embossed the red heart with the script folder and the smaller heart ran it through the crimper for fun texture. I also cut smaller hearts at 3/4", crimped them and layered them on the banners.

The little tag is from the Tickets metal die and stamped with the Build a Valentine stamp set. I tied on a Trendy Twine strawberry cupcake bow and added a small pearl to the center.

The banners are cut using the Lacy Banners metal die. I embellished the banner by adding little hearts, pearls and a prima flower and then tied on with strawberry cupcake twine.

I hope you enjoyed my card today!

Here is some inspiration:
I found this cute Baby Romper shaped card at the Silhouette store and knew it was perfect for a couple baby cards I needed to make.

I had just the right papers in mind for these cute cards....the pattern papers are from the Echo Park Dots & Stripes collection. I inked around the edges with TH weathered wood and peeled paint and then added some fun little brads that I had in my stash.

I used My Craft Spot's Tiny Doilies metal die and then stamped the sentiment and the little feet with the Stamping All Around Spring stamp set for the cute pennant. I added foam tape for dimension between the layers and adhered it in place.

The inside label is cut at 2 1/2 with the Elegant Edges cartridge and then stamped the sentiment with the New Arrival stamp set. The little stamped flourish is from the Tiny Tags 2 stamp set and the bling from Recollections.

You could easily turn these into shower invite cards~Cute, ha?

Friendship Warms the Heart

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion!

Hello Everyone!

I hope you are having a great weekend and staying warm! I am so jealous of those of you who live in the southern sunny states right now as we are still blustery cold and dealing with frigid temps. I don't mind the snow, just not diggin' this cold stuff! I swear the older I get, the more I want to go south for the winters, lol!
We are currently under a Winter Weather Advisory and for tomorrow only a high of -10 with windshields between 30-40 below :( Ugh! I am thinking we are just having a rough, cold winter for only to have a beautiful spring....right???? Let's hope!

I have a fun card to share with you today using My Craft Spot's Stamping All Around Christmas stamp set.

I started with making my card base and base layer from the Nesting Eyelet Squares die. The papers are all from the My Minds Eye-Lost & Found Christmas collection.

I cut another base layer with coordinating papers with the die, cut it in half and adhered that in place. I also created a fun border with My Craft Spot's Fancy Edges metal die, layered another panel and wrapped pretty sheer ribbon and tied on a double bow. I added a fun little sparkly gem to the center. 

. The mitten are cut at 2 1/2 from the Jolly Holiday cartridge. I inked around the edges giving them a distress look. I wrapped a little Burgundy Jute String and tied on a bow and added a few little gems.

The tag is from My Craft Spot's Tiny Doilies metal die and I stamped the sentiment with the Stamping All Around Christmas stamp set.

I am entering this in the following challenges:
1.) Pause Dream Enjoy Linky Party #2 Friendship Cards

Today is my DT day over at My Craft Spot and would like to share a birthday card that I made using the Banner Sentiments stamp set.
When creating my card, I also kept in mind a few challenges along with our fun sketch challenge going on this week at My Craft Spot.

I cut a white and black panel, rounded the corners and adhered it to the card base. At the bottom of the panel I layered a cute border with the fun arrow using the Fancy Edges metal die. I cut the hearts from the Heart Border metal dies and layered the smaller hearts with foam tape for dimension. The papers are from an older SU paper stack~I am trying to use up my scraps and older papers this year, yay!

The tag is from the Ribbon Banners~Straight metal die and I stamped the sentiment with the Banners Sentiment stamp set. I inked around the edges with Memento tuxedo black ink and added a little gem that was in my stash. I tied a bow with natural Jute String and then a second bow with some gingham ribbon I got from Michael's.

Sweet Treats

Hello and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion!! 

Hi Everyone! 

Today is my DT day at My Craft Spot and I have a FUN Valentine treat to share with you. I used the Jar Full of Spring stamp set and the Heart Border metal die both from the last release. I also used another favorite stamp set of mine, the Always & Forever stamp set.

I was trying to come up with a quick, easy and yet yummy treat for Arya ( my Granddaughter) to give her little friends at daycare for Valentine's Day. I think this might be perfect for those little ones! I will be definitely be making these again as my family was gobbling them up as fast

as I was making them, lol!  

I started with pretzel logs and dipped them in confetti vanilla candy melts. I then rolled them in Valentine candy sprinkles and then sprinkle red sugar and let them set up. I put them in pretzel bags and added a cute little tag to each one. The tags are cut at 2 3/4 from the Art Philosophy cartridge. The pattern paper is from We R Memory Keepers-Love Struck collection.

I used the Heart Border metal die for the hearts and stamped the little sentiments from the new Jar Full of Spring stamp set. Oh my gosh, the little sentiments are so fun to use on this set! Did you see one even says text me :) too cute, ha?

The little heart on the outer frame and is stamped from the Always & Forever stamp set. I also stamped to and from on the back of the tag from this set as well. I finished by tying the tags on with pink sorbet twine and tied a bow.
These would also be great for a wedding shower, baby shower, or birthday party.....you have a lot of options! Just change the color of the candy melts you use along with the candy sprinkles :)
 Fun, ha?
