Peace on Earth...

Happy Saturday!  I'm here today to share a creation for Scraptownlady.  I totally {{{puffy heart}}} Christmas, so when this darling angel came to live with me, I was so excited!

As you can see, quite a few dimensional foam pieces were added, as this just needed to feel angelic!  There is very little stamping on this creation - it's made mostly with Scraptownlady's beautiful and endless supply of pretty designer papers and stickers!  Be sure to check out all of the Christmas papers!  It's like paper heaven :)

Thanks for stopping by today - hope you'll check out the Scraptownlady store, and blog!

Happy creating,
Patti J.

Designer's Tip:  It's fun to create your shapes with patterned papers.  Step out of the box a bit - clouds don't have to be blue or white, trees can be polka dots, you get the picture!!!

Life is Wonderful

Good morning, and Happy Friday!  It's my day to post for the Scraptownlady Blog, so without further ado, here is my creation for today.

I guess with our upcoming first grandchild, I have babies on my mind.  This sweet 'Pearl' seems to be a great mommy, don't you think?

 The image panel and die cut are actually white cardstock that has been distressed with a sponge dauber, and some brushed courduroy ink.  The pennants and butterflies were fussy cut from patterned papers - I love Scraptownlady's assortment of papers!  For a full list of supplies, see below!

I have an itty bitty blog candy for you today!  Up for grabs is a sweet pair of bird dies from the Scraptownlady store!  These are Impression Obsession Dies, and cut like butter...for real!  All you have to do to win these dies is become a follower of the Scraptownlady Blog!  That's it!  One lucky follower will win! I will announce the winner next week on my Scraptownlady post!

Have a wonderful weekend.

Hugs & Smiles,
Patti J.

Thinking of You Today

Good morning!

It's Friday, and my day to post for the Scraptownlady Blog.

I've had some blogging friends ask me to consider doing some clean and simple projects using Scraptownlady supplies, and decided to do so for today's post!

Hope you like them.

6 x 6 Greeting Card, created from Melissa Frances papers and stickers, and ZVA Creative Embellishments

KaiserCraft papers, some solid cardstock, and a sentiment.  Voila!  The matching envelope makes this a fun, masculine greeting.

Isn't it amazing how much magic a sheet of pretty paper can create?  And that fabulous Kreate-a-Lope is a must have for making matching envelopes!

Have a wonderful weekend, and don't forget to hop over to the ScrapStownlady store - Cheryl adds new items nearly every day!  If you like what you see at the blog, be sure to sign up to follow.

We love new friends :)

Thanks for stopping by today,

Hugs and smiles...

Summer...

Hello!  It's Thursday, and I'm here today with my weekly post for the ScrapTownLady blog.  I have a fun card to share with you today - let's 'roll' right along here...

The hills were just cut, freestyle.  No ryhme or reason.  The first layer was adhered directly to the card front. The next two layers were each adhered with foam, for added dimension.  Sadly, the bike is out of stock, but be sure to check out the store - there are lanterns, birdbaths & birds, etc.  Lots of other options!

One more share for the day - ScrapTownLady now carries the Kreate-a-Lope!  Talk about an easy, fun way to create your envelopes!  You can adjust the envelope opening exactly where you want it, so you have a fun and creative place to display your recipients address, too!  Check it out:

Start by aligning your template where you choose.  I wanted to end up with some lovely flowers on my envie front, so you can see that I placed the opening over the flowered area.

Holding the template firmly in place, begin tearing.

Continue tearing, all the way around each edge.

Now you will place the template on the back side, matching your torn edges.

Place the rectangle template in the center of your first template.

Begin by folding in your side edges.

Next fold up and adhere the bottom edge.

Last, you will apply the Lick and Stick Envelope Glue (sold at ScrapTownLady), let dry, and moisten when ready to seal envelope.

Voila!  Wouldn't this be pretty with one of your handmade cards tucked inside?

Hopefully, you are having a great week!  Mine's been good, so far... I may change my mind after my morning dental appointment today!

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you will become a follower over at the ScrapTownLady blog - each day promises lots of inspiration, and we have guest designers every Sunday!
