Stamp, Scrap & Doodle Saturday

It is Saturday and Stamp Scrap and Doodle are back with a wonderful challenge. The challenge is a shape card and we are being sponsored by one of our very own Design Team Members Erica Falk-Huzar. Her blog is Paper Craftin' with Erica.
Erica is offering a stamp set and paper pack from Angel Company.


If you don’t know about the Angel Company give them a look. They have wonderful products. Their Inspiration book is fantastic. It has lots of tips and “try it!” boxes to get you thinking.

I made my bear card using the Doodlecharms cartridge and my Gypsy to weld two bears together. The stamp on his belly is from an Angel Company set called Everyday Cuties. I think he is so sweet. Thank you Erica. The Designer Paper is from a pack called Reece by Soar With It Collections. Angel Company carries this paper in their catalogue. The ribbon is something I had. I used a SU oval and scallop punch to cut out the image.

If you need more inspiration pop over to SSDS and see the fabulous cards by the rest of the team. Then give the challenge a try. I can’t wait to see your card’s shape.

Thanks for stopping,

One of my favorite sites has a Challenge


My Creative Time with Emma has a weekly challenge called Throwback Thursday. I love this challenge because it is all about using older Cricut Cartridges. I have invested a lot in these cartridges because I love them and it is so nice to have someone encouraging me to use them. Thanks you Emma!
The challenge this week is to use Doodlecharms and make a two page layout. This cartridge has a years worth of images. I have a ton of school pictures to scrap. I got started with these picture of my very last class. I make one just about every year. I have pictures of student I had in first grade that are now 40. One came to my retirement party. Those pictures are yellow now. It is fun to make these scrapbooks but I am really behind.

For this page I used Doodlecharms and Mini Monograms (for the heading) Cricut Cartridges. The wheels have my new favorite product Viva Decor Pear Pens and Glitter Liner. I got them from Custom Crops and I love them. They came in the mail and I had to try them. They look like the pearl you peel and stick but it is in a tube. The only bad part is it has to dry. If you look you can see where I made an opps. I used Spica glitter pens to do the doodles. The DP is by Reminisce called Making the Grade First Grade.

The hardest part is taking the picture. I use my big clip and hung them on my planters outside to try and get them together. They will look better in the book.

If you haven't been to Emma's blog you check it out. She is wonderful.
