Today is the final day of showing you the fantastic products that are coming out tonight!! So be ready to see the fun preivews today and then ready to shop tonight at the All That Scraps Online store :) For the final preview for April we are showcasing the "All About Mom" sentiment set. When I saw this set and knew I had this paper from Pink Paislee's "London Market" line, I knew what I wanted to do and that was come up with a very pretty soft card for my mom. I was happy with the result that I got with the help of the Curly Q border and the Butterfly Border from ATS (cut apart for beatutiful butterflies). I also used the Leafy Flourish from My Favorite Things and some very pretty Prima flowers... this is what I came up with.
...and here is the inside..
and a closer look at the details....
This sentiment set is awesome and I was able to use four of the stamps from this set on this card - and it stamps so clearly!! On the inside I also used another My Favorite Things die, Vintage Flourish (Christine carries this one in the online store). I hope you like it too and I would love to hear your comments.
Happy shopping tomorrow at the ATS online store!!! But first stop by the All That Scraps blog and see the beauties from the other DT ladies ....enjoy.

All That Scraps - New Wings Stamp Set and Wings Die
Today we get to show you what you can do with the new Wings Stamp set when you combine it with the new Wings die ...so be sure you stop at the blog and see what the fine ladies on the Design Team have to show you at All That Scraps!!! I decided to use these "pretties" to make a couple of tags for gifts and I had fun playing with other inks today.
Here is the first one:
For this tag I just stamped the butterflies with Aged Mahoganny Distress ink and then embossed right away with clear embossing powder and cut them with the die. I used the fun little butterfly trail squiggle to add some fun to the tag front. The sentiment is from the Be Happy set at All That Scraps - such a great set!! The papers I used were older ones from Basic Grey :)
And here is the second tag:

And here is the second tag:
For this tag the paper is new from Bo Bunny called Country Garden collection. This time for the butterflies I stamped with versamark ink and then embossed with white embossing powder, next I colored them in with distress stains and I used victorian velvet and scattered straw, sprayed with Perfect pearl mist, "pearl" and cut using the wings die. I used the Spring logo set and also the Be Happy Sentiment set again. I colored the ribbon on the tag with distress stain and the one at top with distress ink and water. So fun to play with these inks today!!
Remember to stop by the ATS blog and see all the fantastic eye candy the team has for you .....now I am off to get ready to go see my grandsons tomorrow in Saskatoon... hoping the weather is good so we can get there easily!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All That Scraps Review Day
Hello again crafty ones!! Today at the All That Scraps Blog we are reviwing the fun images by Amy Young , the great Spring Logo set and the very FUN Butterfly border ( I love this!!!). I have made a card with the very pretty Sweet November "elf" girl called Paprika and added one of the sentiment circles from the Spring Logo set ...and of course some butterflies cut with the Butterfly border.
When I saw her and thought of making her into a card image, I wanted her to very "ethereal"...very fairy/elf like and just very soft and pretty. Then when I saw the new Basic Grey line, 'plumeria' it was just what I wanted for her!! I have always applied my glitter just using a glue stick but when Jay Jay (one of the design team ladies) showed this tutorial on the ATS blogI decided to try it and used the Glossy Accents and then the Glitter Ritz Cool Highlight glitter - like that it gives more dimension with glossy accents. Now I colored underneath the wings first with V000 and BG90 and I like the effect that I got :)
Here are the copic colors that I used:
Dress: V0000, 000, 01 Eyes: BG93 Wings: BG90, V000 Skin: E00, 50, 51 Hair: E30, 31, 33 and I airbrushed the sky with BG70.
On the inside I had this great rub on from Kaiser that I thought went well with a mishcevious elf...
I thought it was fun!!! Also a little surprise for those of you who read this and live in Calgary I am returning to Scrapbooker's Paradise starting in April to teach again!! I will be teaching the advance copic classes and also a very fun stamping class using all kinds of distress inks and stains...... will post photos of the classes in a few days :) ...now be sure to stop over at the ATS blog and see all the fun eye candy from the DT ladies!!!

All That Scraps Review Day
Today we are just reminding you of the super CUTE stamps that were released last week at All That Scraps for the March Release. I am showing you one of the Swiss Pixie's and here she is "Butterfly Lula"
I think she is such a sweetie!! Now I had fun teaming her up with a few other C.C. Design goodies too... the new Butterfly Border (now I could quite happily put butterflies on most cards that I make) , one of the stamps from the Spring Logo set and I also used the Mushroom border (hopefully back in stock real soon!!) from the February release. For the fence I used the Wood grain Fence by MFT and the flourish swirl is by Magnolia. The paper I used is from Moxie's new spring line - I liked giving this card the softer look compared to my cards last week which were very bright springy colors ....just a change :)
The copic colors I used are: Skin - E50, 51, 53 Hair/Shoes - E40, 42, 43, 44 Dress is paper pieced and then some E93, 95 and 02 (also for butterfly and hair baubles) The blue is BG32.
And here is the inside of the card for you to see too.
Again I used the Mushroom border and also one of the Be Happy Sentiments from February release and I used the MFT Sweet stack die to cut the shape for the sentiment. Now I hope you enjoyed seeing this as much as I enjoyed sharing it with you and be sure to hop on over to the All That Scraps blog and see what treats the DT ladies have to share with you - I know you will love what you see!!!!

ATS Preview Day 3 .... A Little Irish Blessing for you
So here we are at day three of the previews, are you just loving what you are seeing from the DT ladies on the All That Scraps blog- I am sure you are!!
The image I have used today is by Amy Young and this cutie is Penelope... she has a wee Irish Blessing to share with you that is part of the new Spring Logos set and she is in the company of some fine green butterflies from the new Butterfly Border...
Here is also a close up so that you can see the butterflies better... to get this effect on them after cutting them using the Butterfly border cutter, I inked them with Shabby Shutters distress ink and then embossed them with clear embossing powder

I liked the way the butterflies were not all exactly the same using this method. And here is a look at the inside of the card using the Be Happy Sentiment set from February's release.
Here are a few more details of the products that I used, the paper is from Echo Park's This & That Graceful 6x6 pad, flower is from Prima and the rhinestones are Kaiser. As I paper pieced her dress and boots there was not too much coloring to do.So here are the markers that I used:
hair - E33, 23, 25
skin - E000, 00, 01
I used a green Sakura pen for her eyes and the baubles in her hair.
Hope you have enjoyed the previews from all the DT ladies on the ATS blog and that you are ready to shop online tomorrow at All That Scraps!!!

ATS Preview Day Two
Today we are previewing the soon to be released "Spring Has Sprung" set ... be ready to be shopping in the online store on Thursday night and order the ones you want!! This darling set has four images that are super for Easter projects of all kinds .... when I started to think of what I wanted to do with these cuties I decided to do something new for me. I checked around and found some wonderful inspiration at SCS forum and found ideas for making treat bags, I changed it up a little and will be sharing a tutorial in April here on my blog to show you how you can make some thing like this too. And here is what I made....
Now I plan on having some fun making these for my grandsons and also for my day home kids to hold some Easter treats (now of course my grandsons will get something else too) So this sweet little bunny was fun and easy to color up three different ways with copics - W0,2,3 and C0,2,4 and E41, 51,31 and then before adding any other colors take a small scrap of dish cloth and soak it in blender solution and dab all over the bunny to give that furry effect!! I had fun again with the new Butterfly border cutter from C.C. Designs for all the butterflies on these little treat bags. The sentiments are all from the new Spring Logo set that will be released on Friday too. These were so fun to make and I think they will be even more fun to give!!
Be sure to stop by the ATS blog and see all the wonderful designs from the fab ladies that are on the DT team! One more preview tomorrow morning and then you can shop tomorrow night!!

ATS Prview Day One!!!
Well here we are at day one of the previews for the great stamps that will be released this Thursday night at 10 pm! Be sure to stop by the ATS blog and check out what all the fabulous design team members have for you to see and tease you with the fun products that are coming out!!!
I wanted to give you two views of this card so you could get a better look.... now this little darling is Ima Butterfly. I think she is so ADORABLE!! I wanted her to look like she was running in a spring field of butterflies and that was easy to do with the help of the new Butterfly border cutter that will be available this Friday. I had so much fun with this cutter as you can get a whole line of butterflies like I used on the first row of this card, then I cut some of them to make separate groups of butterflies too. The butterfly sentiment is from the new Spring Logos set that ... yes will be available on Friday too! Other C.C. Design products that I used were the Mushroom border cutter and the Be Happy Sentiment set both released last month. The flower in the second row is cut with the Five point flower cutter from C.C. Designs too.
When I put together how to show off this darling in the best way, here is what I decided to do.I paper pieced her little dress wtih some of the great Easter 6x6 pad from We R Memory Keepers, Cotton Tails. To make her wings sparkle I used Micro Fine glitter after I had colored them with copic markers and I wanted her rubber boots to shine so I covered them with Glossy Accents. Here is a close up of her so that you can see how she looks close up.
I had so much fun making this card and I sure hope that you enjoy it too!!
Copic colors that were used: Pinks - RV000, 00, 11 / Greens - G21, 40 / Hair - YR30, Y21, E53 /
Skin - E50, 51, 21

"Girl Talk" for MFTWSC60
Yeah - I got time this week to play along with the sketch at MFT, the sketches are always such a great starting point....come and play along!! So here is the sketch...
And here is what I did with it and a look at the inside too......
Okay I had fun with this card ..... fun stamp to work with the ALM Girl Talk from MFT - love the big iphone!! And yes I had so much fun with the new Bo Bunny "Serenity" line - love the color combo and all the fun embellishments that go with it. Don't you love her designer iphone case - I want one just like that!!! Okay I used a few of the MFT dienamics on this card.... Decorative Doily, Sweet Stack, Simple Scallop large, Leafy FLourish, and the Polka Dot greeting frame is on the inside. Now I need to tell you what I did on the circle...I cut the patterned circle with a Spellbinder die from the Bo Bunny paper, then I cut the top piece off the Leafy Flourish to add that little bit of flourish to decorate, then I cut some flowers from the rub ons that go with the Bo Bunny paper and I like the look I got with it. To not waste the rest of the Leafy Flourish I added those to the inside of the card!! Hope you like it as I had fun making it for sure!!!
Colored her up with copic markers and carefully cut her out and popped her up on the circle!!

ATS Wednesday Challenge Reminder - "Fancy Folds"
What fun to try something brand new (well for me anyways) - a sidestep card!! I found some great instructions for making this card at Splitcoaststampers!! (click on the link to go right there) The challenge that was put out last week was to make a card with "fancy folds" and I took a quick look and saw there are some great entries already in for the challlenge ...stop by the ATSWednesday Challenge blog and see what the challenge design team has to show you too - WOW!! So get your supplies out and show us what you can do too - we would love to see your entry :)
For my card I used Miss Rosalie with Roses, Be Happy Sentiment set and Sweet November Mushroom Set all from C. C. Designs. (told you the other day that I love this mushroom set!!) The paper is Little Yellow Bicycle - Paradise line. I sat down the other night and colored her and did not write down what colors that I used from my copic box ... was just having fun!! I know I am looking forward to making more sidestep cards in the near future...maybe for Easter...... :)

ATS Review Day - "Hugs to You"
Okay here is another card from the very fun February release at All That Scraps with the fun C.C. Design stamps, and today we are highlighting the designs of Amy Young. This cute little guy is 'Sweet November's shroom'. Don't you just love his mushroom top hat? The tall mushroom beside him and the sentimnet are from the Mushroom set ( I used the smaller mushroom on the inside) - these mushrooms are great for coloring and cutting out to put beside your images.I had so much fun using the mushroom border cutter and the acorns and leaves cutter to add accents to this card! I love that with the mushroom border cutter you can cut off pieces and then add it to your card in different spots as a great embellishment - see it under the image, in the lower right hand corner of the card front and again in the inside of the card :) As this card is for a boy I decided to distress the edges of the paper lots - a different look than neat and cute :) The paper I used is very old MME ...not even sure the line it was from. The sentiment on the inside of the card is from the fun "Be Happy Sentiment" set also released in February. Be sure to stop by the ATS blog and see what treats the other awesome DT ladies have for you today ..... and coming soon at the end of the month the previews for March ..... (so fun!!)
And yes here are the copic colors that I used for this one:
skin- E00, 21, 11, 51 (R21 for cheeks)
hat and pants - BG11, 32, 72 and YR31, Y21, 26
hair and shirt - E23, 25
eyes- BG000
BG0000 for sky around him and E40 for the shadows.

ATS Review Day - Be My Valentine
Today is our first review day at ATS to remind you of all the amazing stamps and cutters that came out at the first of February!! But also a chance for me to say Happy Valentine's Day to all you bloggers, thanks for the love you leave me with the sweet comments!! And also today I got to use the light tent that my wondeful man gave me for my birthday on the weekend - I love him and the light tent is great!!
Okay now for some details on the card... I used Woodland Lucy (so cute) and the Be Happy Sentiment set (so many great sentiments in that set) all from C.C. Designs at ATS (All That Scraps). I decided to really try and use the papers which are from the 6x6 pad from We R Memory Keepers called "Love Struck" for this card and had fun doing it...so it will be a sweet card for someone that I love!! The hearts were all cut with Spellbinder dies.
Have a Happy Valentine's Day!!!
