Whatever Wednesday - Hoot!

Here is a gift bag and card I made with November's add on kit - Look Who's Talking. I will confess that I snitched the Jillibean ABC's from the main kit, but any alpha set you have in your own stash would work just fine too. Owls are "in" with papercrafting and these Jillibean Soup owls are super cute. I put pop dots behind the owls I cut from the paper and also added some Clearsnap Chesnut Roan chalk ink (it's my go to ink anytime I need a brown) to the corrugated alpha to distress them a bit.

I had some cardstock scraps with a crease left from when I made the friend card and so I left that crease at the top to give this simple little card a little something special.

I hope that everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. I need to get some pumpkin pies made and do some last minute shopping today. I should make the pies soon, that way if they go horribly wrong I still have time to hit Walmart before going to the parents on Thursday!

Team Member Tuesday!

Hi Everyone! It's Mimi again. This year, I know with me finally able to stay home with the twinkies and needing to save money, I wanted to come up with a solution of gift giving and saving money. So this season, I decided to make some home made goodies as gifts. I vowed to used as many of the products I already had in my scrapbook room. Here's what I came up with:

I also decided to try some projects using the new December kit. The box icicle is a downloaded template using my Silhouette from QuicKutz. You can put money or candy inside or just use it to decorate the tree. Treat Jar is from Making Memories filled with Hershey Kisses. Don't forget to decorate the top of the jar. This one is decorated, but I didn't have a good photo to show.

We would love to see some of your homemade crafts. Email us a pic of your project or send us a link to your blog and you could win some more scrappi goodness from our Featured Manufacturer TaDa Design Studios mentioned in yesterday's blog.

Don't forget about our sketch challenge. Deadline is December 1st. Here are the details.

Manufacturer Monday: Ta Da Designs

There are some fun products from Ta Da Designs. Have you seen how cute some of their papers are?!

That Scrappy Girl carries a few of their lines in stock -- Ta Da Signature, Daddy O, and Tea Hee Hee. When I looked on their blog for some fun projects using these lines, I found a TON of inspiration. Check this out:







Didn't their design team really rock these papers?! Interested in using some of these papers?! You can get your hands on some of this yumminess here.

Happy Monday, scrappy girls!

Hugs,
sarah.

Fab Friday: Add On Kit Inspiration

I love Fridays - don't you?! Does anyone have fun plans for this weekend? I know I've got a lot of scrapbooking to do this weekend! :) ...but before the fun beings, I wanted to leave everyone with some ideas for a layout using this month's Add On kit.

It's filled with a bunch of Jillibean Soup! :) If you're an owl lover, you're going to be swooning over this kit. Here's a layout I created using the kit:



Want some tips on how to make this layout?

First, I used a circle template to cut a circle out of a piece of solid cardstock paper. Then, I placed my cardstock on top of patterned paper to create a circular frame for my photos. Just by adding photos underneath my cardstock with some embellishments, I turned my layout into a framed-like design.

I know you've already heard the November main kit is so "nutty" cute, but I just wanted to reiterate that! It's SUPER CUTE! Here's another layout I cranked out with the kit.



Oh, and I almost forgot. I wanted to announce the winner to Monday's giveaway is Natalie Michaud-Lee. Congrats! Please email Mimi to claim your prize.

...and remember, if you have any layouts that you have created with any That Scrappy Girl kits, please feel free to share them with us! We'd LOVE to see your work.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs,
sarah.

Whatever Wednesday!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. I can't believe I'm talking about Christmas and we haven't had Thanksgiving yet, but I'm heading to the post office to mail the design team December's Kit so I couldn't help myself.

My scrapbook room is a complete mess as I'm trying to assemble the kits, but here's a little sneak peek.

I will get up pics and complete list of the kit in the next day.

Be sure to visit the website and sign up for the e-newsletter. I will be sending out Black Sunday specials you won't want to miss.

Happy Scrapping. Mimi
