Scrappy Boy Follow Every Rainbow

Good morning! I'm back with another adorable Scrappy Boy Card. I think this one may be my favorite one yet. 


The rainbow is a die from Whimsy. When you color die cuts, it really brings them to life. I was able to make the rainbow sparkle by adding dots in white gel pen and Copic markers.

Scrappy Boy Music Card

 Hiya!! I am back with another Scrappy Boy Stamps creation! 

This time I used the I Can't Stop Singing set and Climb Every Mountain set. 


How fracking cute are these kids?!?! 
I colored these cuties with Copic markers. My favorite coloring medium. 


The paper I used is digital paper from GalleryTwelve on Etsy. I love using digital paper and Etsy has a ton of it. You can find papers for any occasion. 


I kept the card simple so the singers would remain the center of attention.

Boy Hair: E49, E44, E42, E40

Scrappy Boy My Heart Wants to Sing

Hello friends!! I am guest designing for Scrappy Boy Stamps. Scrappy Boy Stamps is a new company owned by Sean Covert. Sean not only has cute stamps, but he is also putting out stamp sets that no other company has ever done! Just today his crew is sharing a sneak peek of a stamp set inspired by Gilmore Girls. I might have squealed out loud when I saw this set. I was home alone though...there's no proof. 



The stamp set I am showcasing here today is inspired by The Sound of Music. The first stamp set of its kind! 

I have a confession to make...I have never seen The Sound of Music. I LOATH musicals!! (I can hear your gasps just typing that) 

When I saw this cutie, I knew what I wanted to do with her right away, despite my lack of The Sound of Music knowledge. 


The scene came together easily. I love how peaceful she seems sitting there. I can almost hear the music and the running water. I could sit there with her and color all day. 

You will be seeing more Scrappy Boy makes from me really soon. Be on the lookout!

Paper Nest Dolls Christmas In July With Scrapbook Expo 2021

Good morning friends! It has been a minute since I last posted. Things have been busy for Toadally Love to Craft! A Paper Nest Dolls retreat in Flordia (which included a family vaca to Universal Studios), virtual retreats, magazine publications, guest designing for Scrappy Boy Stamps, staining/painting our home, and getting things ready for Expo! 

Today, July 10th is the Scrapbook Expo Home Edition! It is also my birthday!! I digress...

For the Home Edition Expo, I made a little shaker ornament. This is super easy, fun, and oh so adorable! This would totally make an awesome kids' Christmas party craft. 

 

You can find the video tutorial HERE...https://www.facebook.com/SCRAPBOOKEXPO/videos/353505146160760

COPIC COLORS

White: C5, C3, C2, C1
Cheeks: R30
Arms: E27, E23
Nose: YR09, YR07, YR04
Hat and Scarf: BG15, BG11, BG10, BV08, BV04, BV02


Did you notice the top piece changed colors from picture to picture? Where the twine is for the hook? The paper I used is iridescent. I got it from packaging out of a box for toys or something. The paper kind of reminds me of a mirror. 

Anyway...the top didn't actually change colors. It's just the angle and lighting. 

I cut all the pieces with my Cricut. I created the shaker frame in Design Space using a Cricut image. You can find the link to the project HERE... https://design.cricut.com/landing/project-detail/60d7e435ca8c560e7c9580bc

Today through Friday, July 16th use the coupon code Expo20 to get a 20% discount on all orders!! 


When you are done with your ornament please share it with us in the Paper Nest Dolls Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/papernestsdolls/

Thank you for popping in for a visit! Have a TOADALLY craftastic day!! 

Tina.
