Valentines


 Here are the kiddos valentines' for the year!
Blake's


We made his with a really cute CTMH kit! That came with this stamp set, 12 of the test tubes, 12 boxes and 4 sheets of paper! how cute! And it has owls!

Kaden's

He is getting to the age where HE wants to pick and have control! What?!?! We got them out of a super CUTE scholastic kit that had an activity book with it which of course he loved! We added the pixie sticks so they would look like light sabers!!!

For the Grandparents
 I took a pic of the kids, turned in black and white and then added the color back to the words. The words I cut with my Cameo and the font is Wexham Script one of my faves for welding! I used SCAL cause I can't figure out how to weld in the Cameo Software!


Thanks for looking!

Veteran's Day and Thankfulness Day 11


 Today my card and thankfulness go together. Using the Limelight sketch and product focus and the SCS Ways to Use it challenge I created a Veteran's Day Card.
I used patterned paper from my stash for the background. The dog tags are from CTMH's Hero's Pride. I then stamped the words hero and honor on them all in Night of Navy. I used my new Nesties labels two to cut out the image and matte it. I added some white grosgrain ribbon and some stars dangling from the bow.

Today I am thankful for all the men and women past and present who serve our country! I can't even imagine the sacrifices you and your loved ones go through to keep us safe!
Supplies:
CS: Night of Navy, Whisper White, Real Red - SU
PP: Carolee's Adornit
Stamps: Hero's Pride CTMH
Ink: Night of Navy SU
Tools: Star Punch, Spellbinders Nestabilities Label 2
Other: White Grosgrain Ribbon, Floss

Sweet Roses



I wanted to use my new Curly Label punch so I went searching in the gallery at Splitcoast stampers - my number one resource for inspiration! I saw a stunning card by AmberDawn - one of the Unity/Verve girls - I just love everything she does! So I CASED her card to create this one. The roses are a CTMH set called Cherish - not sure what I think of it yet ~perhaps with the stem added. As you can see I am just loving my sewing machine!!!! The background is a cuttlebug folder. Added some ribbon and dewdrops and there you go!

Tools:
CS: Whisper White, Pretty in Pink, Pure Pom
Stamps: Cherish by CTMH
Ink: Pure Pom, Pretty in Pink
Other: Curly Lable punch, Textile Texture CB embossing folder, Sewing machine, dew drops, Choc Chip ribbon

What time of year is it?


No need to adjust your calendars it is December - the LAST day of December but my layout is of 4th of July - what can I say I scrap what needs scrappin! And submissions are actually calling for 4th of July stuff - that's how far in advance they are planning the mags and such!


This layout is of my oldest son Kaden on the first 4th of July he could really be a part of! He was born July 1st and we came home July 3rd so his first 4th was pretty low key! Lots of fun stuff going on with this layout! Some stamping too! The layered fun embellishment with the star is stamped using a CTMH set as is the date stamp! It was stamp of the month back in MAY and I love it!!!! What a cool little custom date embellishment I was able to make! And then the journaling is on Unity's big long journaling block which I just stamped right on the paper! Ilove that thing!!!! I inked up the edes of the patterned paper and added some punched out stars for details! Here is a close up of the title.
I used some old red Making Memories alpha stickers and added details to them by dotting all around the edges and adding some brackets from the same paper pack as my patterned paper. It is Carolee's Adornit set that I won back this summer! TFL! I have more scrappy goodness coming your way soon - who knows what holiday it will be!

Pink Twinks - Find A Cure


The pink continues! All this week the challenges on SCS are going PINK in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Today's Try a Technique Challenge was Penciled Pink Twinks - using watercolor pencils and twinkling H20's. I had to change it up a bit since I don't have Twinking H20's. I stamped my image the ribbon in SU's Pretty in Pink and then used my markers to shade some areas with Pixie Pink. I then used my aqua pen and some Perfect Pearls to paint over the stamped image. It worked great! So shimmery! I cut my stamped image out and then inked the edges in Basic Grey and Stamped the Find a Cure in Basic Grey as well. I then straightened the sentiment and stamped it repeatedly on the pretty in pink cs to create a unique patterned paper for my card! The scalloped piece is SEI patterned paper that I used the Threading Water punch on and then finished it off with some sheer "wedding" ribbon from HL and some little adhesive rhinestones - those two seem to be showing up on a lot of my projects! Oh and the cut out ribbon is popped up on dimensionals. I am giving this card to one of the secretaries at work. She is a BC survivor and one of the most awesome people I know! I used a sketch for the card from my new blogger friend Liz's blog Scrapbooking, Sketches and Life, oh my! It was a great sketch and she also created a 12x12 layout with the same design! Check it out! Don't forget to scroll down and check out my BLOG Candy!

CS: Basic Grey, Whisper White, Pretty in Pink

Who is the Krafty Mama?


Hi I'm the Krafty one! :) I'm the Queen to 2 little knights and a sweet princess. I married my knight in shining armor (kevlar) over 8 years ago and I am a REAL mom, wife and substitute teacher trying to be the best I can be! I love "krafting" but tend to buy more supplies than I actually use. I love make up, nail polish, hair products and fashion but have been known to leave the house in sweats a messy bun and no make up! I love to cook and bake but am guilty of feeding my kids McDonalds in a pinch. I love direct sales and have joined too many to mention! I would love to get to know you!
