J O Y Home Decor & Wreath

Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion 

Hi Everyone!
I hope you had a great weekend~
I want to say thanks to all who visited me last week. I am sorry I haven't made it around much in blogland this week due to a family emergency. I had to go back home for a few days and will be traveling back and forth for a while to visit my Dad. He had fallen and broke his pelvis in 2 places and now is in the Nursing Home to recover. Please say some prayers for a speedy recovery~thanks so much!!
I do have some projects that I have scheduled to post, but I just don't know at this point how much time I will have to comment and/or visit right now.
I will be back at as soon as I can~
Thanks for understanding!

Today, I have a "quick" Home Decor project. I found these letters at a local craft store and covered them with pretty pattern paper from K & Co, inked the edges and added a pretty poinsettia to it. I think it would be pretty on a fireplace mantel or on a side table with garland which I plan to do.

Here is a close up of the pretty Poinsettia. I found this file at the Silhouette Store and cut it on
my Cameo. 

I also have a pretty wreath to share~Again, the file from the Silhouette Store. It went together very quickly and you could easily add glitter or emboss the flower pieces for texture. 

Have a GREAT day~

Brewing up Christmas Wishes just for you

Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion 

Hello Everyone! 

I am super thrilled to have been chosen as one of the Guest Designers for the month of December at Jaded Blossom...yeah!!

One thing I love about Jaded Blossoms is they have so many cute stamps and die sets for putting projects together easily! Their products coordinate so well and they have the cutest sentiments that match up perfectly!

Today,  I have a FUN trio set I made for a friend. I thought it would make a fun gift idea since she enjoys coffee, tea, hot chocolate, etc. Perfect for Christmas morning, right?!

I hope you like my project:

Here we go:

I will start off with this pretty card using papers from Teresa Collins~Noel Collection. I stamped the coffee mug using the new Holiday Sweater Mug stamp set onto the Luggage Tag Dies. I colored them with copics and Wink of Stella. The little sentiment is stamped with the Christmas Candies, punched out and adhered onto a 1" circle. The main sentiment is from the new Happy Brew Year stamp set. I finished with tying on a yummy bow with SU ribbon, twine and a little jingle bell from my stash. 

Then onto a matching tag for my gift bag: 

The tag is created with the Luggage Tag Dies. I stamped the image with the Holiday Sweater Mug stamp set and colored it to match. Again using the Christmas Candies stamp set for the little sentiment in the corner. The cute tag will be attached to a gift bag that will hold some yummy coffee and treats for Christmas Morning:)

 The coffee pot is a file from the Silhouette store.  The file actually came in as a shaped card. I did some modifications and turned it into a gift box. Again, I used the same paper and patterns to coordinate. The center section is embossed with TH swirls folder. The beautiful poinsettia and leaves are stamped with the Poinsettia stamp set. I fussy cut the poinsettia out, used diamond glaze and sprinkled on crystal glitter. When dried added a pearl to the center. The sentiment is stamped with Happy Brew Year onto a Candy Wrap Dies.  

I would love it if you popped over to Jaded Blossom to check out my project.

Thanks SO much Jaded Blossom for having me!

Hi Everyone!
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving~
We had a great Thanksgiving!! We went back home to spend time with family and friends for the holiday. I even did a little Black Friday shopping with my sister and had a blast as usual! We also had a wedding over the weekend so it was a busy few days but FUN!! I am hoping to play catch up this week and try and get back in my craft room to do some Christmas crafting~

Today, I have a very simple but pretty card to share with you. I happen to go to a fun little craft shop while on a craft retreat a few weeks ago and found some beautiful dies from Impression Obsessions and Paper Smooches for this card.

The pretty poinsettia is the Poinsettia die from Impressions Obsessions and the sprigs die is from Paper Smooches.  The beautiful greetings die is also from Impressions Obsessions.

 I stamped and embossed the sentiment with the Impression Obsessions Greeting stamp set and finished my card with some pretty sequins from my stash.

Before I go, I have a quick little treat to share. I thought this would be a fun idea to have at Thanksgiving near each place setting~It's filled with a yummy chocolate, caramel treat...surprise, surprise, lol!

I started with glassine bags that I found at the local craft store. I added a belly band and then with My Creative Time's Gobble Gobble stamp/die set stamped and colored the sweet turkey with copics.

Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion 

Hello my crafty friends~
I had a wonderful time last weekend at the scrap retreat. I was able to knock out a few projects for Christmas I needed to get done along with some Christmas cards. Of course, I could have got a bit more done had I not goofed off some...hehe,  but how can you not with this group of ladies, lol! A lot of laughing going on at times...it sure is good for the soul! I had a blast with these girls :)

I have a couple quick Thanksgiving cards to share today. I used some fun stamps and dies from
 Jaded Blossom. I also picked up a new die from Scrapy Land recently and worked it into this card design as well.

I started with papers from scrap pile which seems to be forever growing, lol! This card was perfect for that. The little border along the bottom is created with Jaded Blossoms Border Dies 2 die and the two smaller pumpkins and cute sign are Jaded Blossoms Fall Dies. The larger pumpkin is the Patterned Pumpkin die I recently picked up from Scrapy Land. I stamped the fun little sentiment onto the sign with the Harvest Sign stamp set, also from Jaded Blossom.

The pumpkin faces are stamped with PK-560 Dolly Dumplins Face asst. I stamped the Happy Thanksgiving with Jaded Blossoms Happy Hello and Happy Hello (add on) stamp set. The ribbon was from my stash and finished with little skittles from Doubleclick.

Also, be sure to stop back Thursday for my final post for Seize the Birthday as Surprise Guest Designer~

Hello friend

Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion

Hi Everyone~

I hope you are having a great day! It has been so nice here...sunny and in the mid 60's! I can't believe how warm it's been for November.  I'm not complaining ....but wow! To celebrate, I decided to share a fun, bright and sunny card today!  I had some time in my craft room and couldn't wait to play in some fun challenges going on:
So, here is what I have for you today~
 I am sharing a fun, shabby chic, mixed media card that was a little outside my box~ I had fun playing around with some inks, paints and texture paste and really love my end result! Yup, I will definitely be using more of this product and getting messy again, lol!

I have a few panels that I cut and layered on my base.  I created the next few layers doing a water colored background with Tim Holtz Peeled Paint, Spiced Marmalade and Victorian Velvet distressed inks, water and acrylic white paint. I then used Tim Holtz Splatters stencil and the Burlap Layering stencils along with texture paste to create a textured background.

Tucked beneath the frame which is created with Spellbinders Card Creator 5x7 Reflective Moment die is Memory Box Chloe Stems and cheesecloth.  After cutting the frame out, I applied a layer of gesso, let that dry and then added a few coats of crackle paint. Once that was dry, I added some distressed ink..super fun and love the effect!

The "hello" is My Creative Time~Fun Notes stamp/die set. The hello was cut out of foam and then card stock two times for dimension. The butterflies are My Creative Time~Pretty Butterflies & Dragonfly dies, embossed with white shabby embossing enamel. I fussy cut the small banner and stamped "friend" using the same stamp set. The daffodil ribbon is from 3 Girl Jam. The green jute string and flowers are from my stash and the leaves are My Creative Time~Stitched Leaves die. I then took a mixture of acrylic white paint and water, mixed that together and with the Tim Holtz Splatter Brush, created splatter effects to finish my card.
