KatScrappiness Hello My Crafty Friend Die + WPlus9

Hi All!  I'm here today to show off this really awesome sentiment die by #KatScrappiness, one that I know I will use a lot!  There's nothing else like it out there and I have so many crafty friends.  What a perfect sentiment when I want to make them a card!

I multi-layered the die and glued it together with a black cutout right behind to give it a shadow.  I also copic colored it in the 5 combinations you see on the paint pallete!

JustRite Planner Hex Page and Basics sets

Hello everyone!  Today I'd like to introduce you to a few of the new planner sets from JustRite Papercrafts!  

I'll admit, I don't use my planner often enough.  However, I am a list person..so these stamps really appealed to me.  I created a little planner notebook for myself and used it all last week.  Not only was it fun to create, it was fun to look at sitting on my desk and it did help keep me organized.  I think I might be on to something!  

So here are two of the newest sets, they are linked below in the shop for your convenience!  Thanks for stopping by today :)

Gina Marie Designs Layered Pineapple Die

Happy Saturday everyone..I'm goofing off for a bit getting this blog post done this morning.  I've got real work to do all weekend, so this is my calm before the storm..but I've got hot coffee, so I'm good!

I'm introducing a new die in Gina's line this morning, this GORGEOUS Layered Pineapple Die!  It's a 3 piece set and there's so much you can do with it!  This is just one look, because Gina has desinged this where you can ink in your detail.  Do you see what I did on the leaves at the top, that's a stencil effect.  You can also do that on the fruit using the holes in the die.  So once cut, don't removed the cut piece, ink it up while it's still in the die!  

The sentiment is by Technique Tuesday and the cool background paper is Bo Bunny!  The sequins are by KatScrapiness, 6mm Buttercup!

Blogs 4 Boobies - Skipping Stones 3rd annual Breast Cancer Fundraiser

3rd Annual Skipping Stones Designs Blogs For Boobies Charity Hop

Bras Volume #1 by Skipping Stones Design

Hello, today I'm happy to be a part of this amazing hop, this is day 7 of a 7 day event!
