Today was my first time hearing about scraplings. They are cards made from the scraps left over after making square cards.
I made one for a Limited Supplies challenge at Splitcoaster stampers (keyword: LSC236).
I had an unused cupcake stamped image (made by Unity Stamps) I had colored. Took that along with a pink scrap of cardstock, and an Enjoy stamp (also Unity stamps), glued them to the card – and voila! A scrapling.
I think I may make some and put them in my son’s lunch box.
I found a stack of Cosmo Cricket’s paper. Loving the bright, happy colors.
For this card, I cut strips of about an inch off from a couple pieces of double sided paper. Cut the strips in half. Next I stamped and cut around the text and the sun. Colored in the sun with sharpies and bic markers. A piece of ribbon was glued down to the card. I made the bow glued the bow together, then glued the bow down to the card.
Yesterday I made a card for the SBKC challenge. The challenge was to create a layout/card using a title from one of Michael Jackson’s songs. A real challenge for me since I didn’t like the guy. I did find a song title that was easy to work with. I almost feel like I was cheating.
Smile. So let’s smile everyone. It has finally stopped raining here. Time to enjoy the sun!
The stamp is made by Unity. I colored it in with sharpies and bic markers. I’m happy with the outcome. Still drooling over Copic markers.
Unity Stamps is having another awesome garage sale. I’m loving the sales. I bought my first Unity stamps last month. With barely having any, I can take advantage of lots and lots of sale prices. I’m excited – but the checking account isn’t. 
This week I bought the Love is Everything, Scrappy Flower, Rain & Flowers, and Tiny Giggle Grove.
I can’t wait for hodge podge of happiness to be released. The family of owls is just too cute.
I’m checking out around WordPress seeing what I can get into. Time to try out posting a picture to the blog!
