NSD MPS Challenge #12

Here's the last challenge I participated in. The challenge is to make a scrapbook page, a card or project using an animal or critter. So I finally opened my newest cartridge, Create a Critter and like the rest of you, I just LOVE, LOVE this cartridge. It's so easy to use and they are all adorable. So I made this turtle out of this cartridge and I used the DCWV premade card and added a ribbon from my stash. I used foam tape on the turtle to give it dimension. Hope you like it!

NSD MPS Challenge #10 May Day

Hello again, I know I'm skipping a few challenges but hopefully I will have time tomorrow to do the other ones. This challenge is to make a project using flowers or make something springy. Here's a card I made, sorry no recipe as I can't remember at this moment. It's 1 am and I need to go to bed. Hope you like it!


NSD MPS Challenge #9 Take Shape

The challenge is to make a shaped card, scrapbook page or project. Here's my take on the challenge. I made the flower card using the Wild Card cartridge. I've never done one before and I was having trouble choosing which card. So I decided to make a flower card using CTMH CS and patterned paper from a kit (can't remember which one) and I just added some prima flowers. Hope you like it!

NSD MPS Challenge #8

This challenge is to use monochromatic color and add a flower. I had fun making this card and probably my favorite one so far. I didn't think using just one color would look this good. I used PTI Summer Sunrise CS, In Bloom patterned paper, and polka dot ribbon. Then I added the Prima flowers and some white brads. I also used Martha Steward Punch and cuttlebug Swiss Dot EF. Hope you like it!

NSD MPS Challenge #3

The challenge is to "think outside the box" , or something you wouldn't normally do on your card, layout or project. Here's a layout for my baby's first album. You may see more layouts of her album as I'm starting this project and hopefully be caught up with all her pictures before I go back to work.
What I did here is I stamped the white ribbon with new baby and a heart. This is the first time I've tried it and it's actually pretty cool. You can customize your own ribbon!


The picture below are the materials I used to make my customized ribbon. All items are from CTMH: Miracle Stamp Set, Pink Carnation Stamp Pad, White Daisy Grossgrain Ribbon.




NSD My Pink Stamper Challenge #2

Here's a card I made for challenge #2. The challenge is to make something using your scraps, coz we have plenty of those! Lol! This card is pretty simple, I used the CAS FTL #87 as I'm getting behind with the challenges.

Card Recipe: PTI Kraft CS, CTMH Ocean Patterned Paper, CTMH stamp sets It's a Zoo and Dainty Thoughts.

National Scrapbooking Day My Pink Stamper Challenge #1

Hello everyone!!! I'm back after over a month of being gone in the blog world. I just had a baby girl and she is now 6 weeks old! I wanted to get back into crafting now that we are settling into a routine. I'm trying to squeeze in a few moments of free time here and there. But hubby was so sweet enough to give me some crafting time today so I can celebrate National Scrapbooking Day!
I'm participating with the challenges that My Pink Stamper has in store for today. There are so much excitement going on and hopefully I can participate with most of the challenges if not all.

The first challenge is to make something for your mom or someone dear to you. Here's a card I made for my mom. Hope you like it!
Card Recipe: PTI Kraft CS, CTMH Sweet Pea DP, Storybook cartridge and prima flowers.
