Happy

Oh happy day, I have a non-Valentine card to share with you that I made with Scraptastic Club's It Takes Two kit! I've made lots of love cards with this month's kit, but you can use it for so much more like birthdays, friendship, etc.

I also snagged that adorable Kraft tag from January's Sweater weather kit. I think it makes an awesome combination with the soft pastel papers. 

I've been on a kick to use up old doodads which is where my little bow/crepe paper/flowers combo comes from...all have been stashed away far too long....so go forth and mix and match your Scraptastic Club kits and add a few bits of stashed treasures for good measure! 

Do You Want to Build a Snowman?

It's cold enough outside to build a snowman, but there's only one problem...there's no snow! None yet this year and while it's still too early to tell, I'm thinking this year may be void of snow. Here it the Raleigh, North Carolina area some years are like that. It reminds me when we first moved here from California we bought a sled right away anticipating our first snowfall that didn't happen for a couple years!

Anyway, it is cold enough to bundle up and share a Scraptastic Club January 2015 Sweater Weather kit card with you! 

I noticed that with some of my previous Sweater Weather cards I was gravitating towards the same papers and accents so I thought I'd mix it up a bit this time and use different ones. Funny how it makes this card seem like it's from an entirely different kit! That's one of the things I love about the Scraptastic Club kits...so many patterned papers and accents to choose from and enough in each kit to make more projects than I have time for!!! My niece loves that because I have enough supplies to share with her too! 

Winter

Even though it's the middle of winter, yesterday we had an amazing warm and sunny day here in North Carolina. It was 65+ degrees and I couldn't resist spending some time outside with the sun on my face! 

Since it's still very much wintertime, I have a Scraptastic Club January 2015 Sweater Weather kit project to share with you today. 

The background of my card was created with two Scraptastic Club patterned papers and a sticker...those beautiful pine trees. The next layer, the shipping tag, one of my kit faves is topped with some Carta Bella Warm & Cozy stickers and accented with a bit of jute and a very cool metal snowflake paperclip from Maya Road. 

We'll be returning to normal winter temps soon and maybe we'll even get a little snowfall? Christopher would enjoy that! :)

Winter Fun

With freezing temperatures and precipitation mixing it up around here it's only a matter of time before we get a little snowfall! Which reminds me of this pin I recently saw on Pinterest. Even though I'm not a huge fan of cold temperatures I love the beauty of snow and this scene inspired me to create this card with Scraptastic Club's January 2015 Sweater Weather kit and add-on. 

The Sweater Weather kit add-on includes these awesome metal snowflake paperclip accents from Maya Road that I'm totally digging! Aren't they fun?!?! What would you make with them? I'm thinking they would make a fantastic ornament embellishment! Hmmm.....

Sweater Weather

Brrr...it's a cold winter day! It's definitely the perfect weather to share a couple Scraptastic Club January 2015 Sweater Weather kit cards with you!

What do you think of these Jillibean Soup Kraft Tags included in this month's kit? I'm crushin' on them big time so I wanted to make a card using several of them. Can you believe you get 24 of these awesome little tags in one pack? Ooh la la!
