Ahoy, Mateys! Pirates & Mermaids Be on Ye' Horizon! Scrapping for Less has partnered with Lawn Fawn and Neat&Tangled to bring you a treasure trove of fantastic stamp sets! In this month's kit only! 

Two full-size stamps are Lawn Fawn's "Ahoy Matey" "Mermaid for You", plus "So Jelly" shall be your booty! Shiver me Timbers there's more. 

If you purchase the Banana Split level, Neat&Tangled joins the crew with the sentiment stamp "Hope Anchors".  

But wait...we discovered so many fantastic items we couldn't bare to make them walk the plank so we put them in kits that can be purchased, A LA Carte! 

Along with some other treasure to be had if 'ye wish. 'Tis no mirage but alas a booty only comes along once in a Mermoon so grab it while 'ye can!  

Now hop on along and see what the team has fished up with the kit so 'ye can be inspired.

For my projects today, I am working with the DELUXE SUNDAE CARD KIT! Here are all the items you get with that kit:

Now, onto my projects! 

Collection One

I created Sketch 1. All I did was rotate the side of the banner so I had from to add my Mermaid and sentiment. 

I created this card by using the Under The Sea paper collection from Doodlebug, as well as the Let's Be Mermaids stickers from Echo Park. I also used the Purple Polka Dot Ribbon from the collection as well as the Kennedy Grace Sequins.

Collection 2

I created Sketch 4. Once again, all I did was rotate it so I could add a cute banner with the Let's Be Mermaid's Glitter Dots and Let's Be Mermaid stickers! 

I also used the SUPER CUTE Lawn Fawn "SO JELLY" stamp set with the Echo Park "Let's Be Mermaid's" Paper collection. The Kennedy Grace Sequins are SOOO pretty in this collection! 

On the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment, YOU'RE A STAR which also came in the "SO JELLY" stamp set. 

Collection 3

I created Sketch 3 for this card. I did it as it was. 

I used the "Party Me Hearty" paper from Imaginisce along with the super cute pirate ship sticker, also from the same Imaginisce line. The cute little anchor is super cute A La Carte die! I die cut it from white card stock, then I took my Versamark ink and dabbed it all over the anchor. I covered it in Silver Embossing Powder and heat set it so it looked like a real anchor! I also embossed the compass looking stamp from Lawn Fawn's "Ahoy, Matey" stamp set. I stamped and colored the little pirate boy which is also from the same stamp set! To finish it off I stamped Ahoy Matey, and I added more Kennedy Grace Sequins. 

Collection 4

I created Sketch 2 for this card. I did it as it was. 

I used the Scrapberry's The Pirate's Treasure paper collection to create my card based off the sketch. I used the "Ahoy, Matey" stamp set to create the treasure chest-which I finally used the BEAUTIFUL metallic water color that I got from Theresa's store to paint in my treasure in gold! I also add the map sticker from the "Pirate's Gem's" stickers. I also distressed the layers on this card to give it an old time feel. And to finish the card, I once again used the Kennedy Grace Sequins. 

I truly hope you liked my projects! 

You are now off to Tina!

SFL Design Team Post Using Echo Park Mini Kit Science Fair

Hey All!!

Thanks for joining me today as I do a Design Team Post for Scrapping For Less! 

I wanted to share with you a Tri-Fold Mini Album that I made using the Echo Park Mini Kit called "Science Fair".

You wanna hear the best part of this project? 

I am remaking it with different products, and I am doing it as an ONLINE class for Scrapping For Less! YAY!!! All you need to do is to purchase the supplies from Teresa's online store, and you will then get an invite into the LIVE Facebook Event for her group! These items are going to be: 

Echo Park Once Upon a Time-Princess 12 X 12 Paper

So, you wanna see my Mini Album?

If you know who had the ORIGINAL idea, please let me know so I can give credit! The idea using Echo Park Science Fair is my idea though :) 

So, without any further waiting, here it is:

So now, onto my projects!! 

This month, I had the Double Dip level-boy did I get A TON!

Check it out: 

I was so excited by all the different collections in this kit. It was great! I crafted the whole day away, and time certainly got away from me, lol! 

For my projects this month, I wanted to add a little more 

"pizzaz", so I created 2 Fun Fold cards, and a Shaker card, along with a regular fold card! 

Here they are!

Collection 1

Open

Closed for mailing :) 

Collection 1 included six 6x6 sheets of Echo Park "Happy Summer" paper, and Brutus Monroe "Happy Summer" stamp, as well as the "Happy Summer" Ephemera (also from Echo Park) and the Kennedy Grace Sequins called "Happy Summer". 

I used the included "Ballerina Pink" from the My Colors Cardstock company to make the base, and stamped the Brutus Monroe stamps all over it to make a pattern using Pixie ink. I used the "Happy Summer" paper and Ephemera from Echo Park to make the sentiment piece, which is what I made my sketch 1 from. And finally, I added the Kennedy Grace sequins to the front of the base. 

This card is called a Pull Up Box card. You can find the tutorial on Split Coast Stampers. 

Collection 2

Collection 2 included six 6x6 sheets of Bo Bunny "Petal Lane" paper, and My Favorite Things "Fresh Squeezed" stamp set,  as well as "Petal Lane" Ephemera and Clear Stickers also from Bo Bunny and Kennedy Grace Sequins called "Petal Lane". 

I used more of the "Ballerina Pink" as well as the Bo Bunny paper to make this card. I used a regular scallop punch to make the bottom of the card with the sentiment. I stamped the sweet little girl onto the included White yardstick from the kit. I colored her in and made her a part of the card sketch 4. 

Collection 3

Front of the card-flat

Card opened, top view

Card opened-side view

Collection 3 included six 6x6 sheets of Carta Bella "Work Hard, Play Hard" paper, Small Stamps "Scooter" stamp set, as well as "Work Hard, Play Hard" Ephmera, "Gears" brads, and Kennedy Grace "Work & Play" sequins. 

I used the "Lemon Lime" and "Deep Blue" cardstock from the My Colors Cardstock collection found in the kit to make the base of this card. I added the Carta Bella patterned paper and ephemera to make the rest of the card. I also added the gears and some sequins to the front. I used the Prima Metallic Watercolors that Teresa offers in her online store to do a watercolor wash background of the stamp. 

This card is called a "Free Standing Pop Up card" and the tutorial can be found at Split Coast Stampers. 

Collection 4

Collection 4 includes six 6x6 sheets of Carta Bella "Travel Stories" paper, Jillibean Soup "Fly Away" Stamp set, as well as "Go See Explore" Enamel Dots, "Ogee" Embossing Folder, and Kennedy Grace Sequins "Travel Stories". 

For this card, I also used the optional add-on, JilliBean "Small Circle Set" dies to match the "Fly Away" set. I also decided to turn it into a Shaker Card! I used "Deep Blue" cardstock with the Ogee Embossing Folder to start the base of the card. I used the Fly Away stamp set and stamped the SENDING HUGS and the Clouds onto white cardstock that is included in the kit. I used the included GO SEE EXPLORE enamel dots on the front of the balloon that I made. The stripes of the balloon were also stamped from the JilliBean stamp set. 

I truly hope you enjoyed my cards today!
