Featuring Scrappy Boy Stamps November 2021 Release
Approximately every 4th week, Scrappy Boy Design Team Members get to go back and pick a random set from a prior release to feature a project around. For my FLASHBACK day, I chose a set from November 2021. There are 3 stamp sets and a coordinating paper pack.
Card Base – 4.25 in x 11 in (scored at 5.5 in) in white card stock 110 lb
Black Matt – 4 in x 5.25 in
Scrap black piece for sentiment. Strip should be at least 4.25 in long.
Black and white scraps to die cut FLAG layers .
White panel to create background panel for stamping and coloring, so use by our favorite for whatever medium you are using. I used Perfect Blend Alcohol Marker Cardstock in white. Final measurement is 3.75 x 5, but I use a slightly larger piece and then cut down.

Meet William and some of his coordinating products from Stamp Anniething
I stamped William – You Drive Me Wild on alcohol marker blending paper from Brutus Monroe. I colored image with Copic Markers and cut out with the coordinating outline die. I also cut out the flag (solid) in white and the checkered layer in black and adhered together to create the checkered flag.
William was popped up with double-stick foam tape. As well as the checkered flag and sentiment. The sentiment was heat embossed on a strip of black paper with white embossing powder using my Stamp Anniething HOT PINK heat gun and then adhered to the banana panel, I previously created, at an angle and used as a grounding or landing spot for the main image.
I had so much fun making this card. I wanted it to be colorful, like I remember the comic pages used to be, tucked in between the other black and white pages of the Sunday paper. I wanted there to be lots of angles and layers of tone on tone colors behind my focal point, one of the cutest little super heroes you ever did see in a stamp set from http://www.ScrappyBoy.com.
I was inspired by the divided blocks, white framing, the camera, filmstrip, reds, blues and showing movement on a page.
To make this A2 sized card, I used the following:
White Card Base – 4.25 in x 11 in, scored at 5.5 in
Red Card Panel – 5.5 in x 4.25 in
Black Card Panel- 5.25 in x 4 in
White Card Panel – 5 1/8 in x 3 7/8 in
Filmstrip diecut in black
Various Patterned Paper (use up scraps)
Scrap strips in black, red and white for your sentiment
I used Scrappy Boy Stamps’ new slimline comic strip builder frame and ink blended solid blocks of bright colors using distress ink pads in candy apple red, carved pumpkin, squeezed lemonade and peacock feathers on the white card panel. I then ink blended with the same color for a tone on tone with different patterns from a second stencil that Scrappy Boy Stamps released called Half-Tone Dots, as well as another stencil from my stash. The effect you are trying to achieve is movement and interest, so get creative.
I glued the ink-blended panel to the black panel, leaving a small frame around the edge. I then glued the black panel to the red panel and then the double-matted panel onto the card base.
I decorated the front by gluing a filmstrip diecut, after piecing patterned paper from the coordinating 6×6 paper pack called SuperHeros. This was adhered to the card front at an angle with double-stick foam tape for added dimension.
The super hero from the SUPER TEAM set was stamped with Momento Black Ink on Hammermill 110 lb white card stock, colored with Copic markers in the following combinations:
Red Suit – R20, R24, R29, R39
Yellow – Y13, Y15 and Y17
Flesh – E51, E30, E50
Cheeks -R20
Flames – Yellows and accented with red flicks using combos above.
Sentiment stamped with Black ink on a strip of white card stock treated with an anti-static powder bag in my stamp positioner. I then cleaned the stamp, leaving the strip in the positioner in place and stamped the sentiment over the original black impression with Versamark and then applied clear embossing powder and heat embossed the sentiment with my heat gun. I find that by using the positioner, I don’t have to fight with stray black embossing powder flecks and still gets a bold, shiny, black finish on my embossed images. I matted the sentiment with layers of black and red to tie everything together. I left the edges of the sentiment strip with strong, wonky angles for some playfulness. The card was finished off with embossed candy dots in black.
Thanks so much for visiting and sharing ideas on my crafting journey and supporting small business by also visiting http://www.ScrappyBoy.com.
This card features a 2×3 stamp set that was one of the Stamps of the Month. You can see the entire set below.
Available at Brutus Monroe for $4.99
I used a stamp positioner and the Wreath Builder Stencil from Gina K Designs to create the wreath with chick images and a smaller heart stamp to create the front of my card panel.
Images stamped on Aqua Pigment Watercolor Paper and Glossy Accents added to hearts for added interest
I used a rainbow pattern of aqua pigments and colored the images as you would watercolor. I used red to color all the hearts. Once dried, I added a small amount of glossy accents to each of the hearts for added shine and dimension.
Aqua Pigments are very versatile and come in a variety of colors.
To finish my card, I matted several layers and heat embossed my sentiment on a circle punch using black glitter card stock for added interest.
Measurement of my finished card is 5.5 in x 5.5 in square.
Watercolor panel – 4.25 in x 4.25 in
Black Matt – 4 3/8 in x 4 3/8 in
Red Matt – 5 in x 5 in
Black Matt – 5 3/8 in x 5 3/8 in
Red Card Base- 5.5 in x 5.5 in (I glue a piece of lightweight white card stock or copy paper slightly smaller and adhere only at the top so you can write your message easily inside when using darker card bases.
Sentiment heat embossed with Alabaster White on black glitter card stock and matted with red to coordinate with the other layers.

This slimline card was extremely fun to make because Kawaii Cuties from Stamp Anniething has so many images included in each set, slimline cards are how you can have enough real estate to hold ALL THIS CUTENESS!!!!!
I find myself wanting to be late sending all my birthday cards this year, because I am absolutely in love with this sentiment! How cute is the sentiment, “sorry, I’m Choco-late!”
To make this slimline card, I used one of StampAnniething’s slimeline dies. This one is a stitched scallop die. Next, I used a combination of distressed inks from my stash to ink blend the background. I used spun sugar, squeezed lemonade, carved pumpkin, and at the very top I used a little bit of barn door to deepen the pink. I flicked some fresh, clean water onto the panel, as it will cause the distressed ink to react, and leave a bleached effect. I then mounted the ink panel onto a piece of card stock in a darker teal, giving approximately a quarter inch larger than the cut panel. The teal piece measures 3.5 x 8.5.
The first quarter release from Kawai Cuties by StampAnniething has some amazing sets. They are very versatile and you can mix and match on all different projects. This particular card uses the stamp set and coordinating dies from: Life is What You Bake It and I Will Never Dessert You.
I used COPIC markers to color my images. The following combinations were used:
I heat embossed the sentiment using Silver embossing powder on the same colored card stock I matted my base with to keep everything coordinated. To finish off the card, I created a white card-base to adhere my finished panel to. Finished card size is folded, 3.5 x 8.5. The card-base was made with white 110 pound card-stock cut 7 x 8.5, scored at 3.5.
Mark your calendars for the second Tuesday of every month to get LIVE inspiration from ME on the Stamp Anniething Stampers FB page in a feature they call Mix It Up with Kelly!

I joined the Brutus Monroe Design Team in 2022 and wanted to share my projects for January 2022. Here is my first project featuring Sweet Candy stamp set and a variety of Brutus Monroe embossing powders.
Sweet Candy Stamp Set featuring Brutus Monroe Embossing Powder
I had a lot of fun creating backgrounds and design elements, including stamping the images on lunch bag card-stock with Brutus Monroe clear embossing ink and embossing them using Brutus Monroe alabaster white embossing powder. I felt this gave the look of royal icing on gingerbread. For a special touch, I ink blended the edges to give it a an oven baked look.
I finished off the card using white embossing powder on black card-stock using a sentiment from the set, “Thank you for being so sweet.”
Sharing a fun project created with Scrappy Boy Stamps’ latest release called Curve Appeal. I decided on trying out a 6×6 square card. I used one of my favorite sentiments from the set, “Dance Like No One Is Watching.”
I wanted to create a Vegas Style Showgirl feel and used a combination of rich reds, black and to make it regal, accented everything in gold mirror paper. Using various dies from my stash, I cut feathers to give some additional visual interest. I also heat embossed the sentiment with gold embossing powder.
Copic Markers were used to color the image in tbe following blends:
Today I am sharing an elegant card using a neutral color pallet, with pops of gold metallic mats behind the embossed sentiment, “Seriously Dough, I Love Every Layer of You.” This card could be used as Valentine Card, Galentine Card, Pick Me Up, Thinking of You, Birthday, Miss You….literally for any person on your list! It’s a great set and can’t wait to see what everyone else makes. If you post a creation using SA products, make sure you tag them using #STAMPANNIETHING in your social media for a chance to win some great prizes.
This set, like I have already said, is extremely versatile and features many yummy gourmet pastry images, a cute little girl and one of those popular layered display trays. To make my card, I used the following Stamp Anniething supplies and have inclulded links for your convenience below.

Today is my day to post on the Scrappy Boy Stamps’ Inspiration Page and my card project features one of my favorite mermaid images from the latest Scrappy Boy release, MERMAZING. Mermaids seem to be all the rage lately and this set really lends itself to a variety of different occasions. I know you’re going to love it!
Bust out the following from your supplies, knowing you can substitue any of your supplies for what I have used. I just shared what I used for informational purposes, but it is perfectly okay to use what you have in your personal craft arsenal.
White Card Stock for Base – 110 lb Hammermill cut, 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored at 4 1/4
Black Card Stock for Base Panel – 80 lb Cardstock cut, 5 1/2 x 4 1/4.
White CardStock for Background Panel for Underwater scene – 110 lb Hammermill cut, 5 1/4 x 4
Square piece of patterned paper from the coordinating paper pack, 2 1/2 x 2 1/2
Square piece of patterned paper from the coordinating paper pack, 2 1/4 x 2 1/4
Black cardstock for sentiment – 80 lb Cardstock cut, 4 1/4 x 1
Matte for sentiment strip – Coordinating Colored Cardstock, 4 1/4 x 1 1/4
I used the Under the Sea stencil that was introduced with the release to create the background which is matted with a 1/8 inch border all around with black cardstock. This A2 size card was very fun to make. Using the stencil builder to create the backround was quick and easy. I used a combination of inks in my stash that complimented the colors in the patterned paper from this month’s release, as well.
After ink blending the background, I put through my BigShot with a die plate that makes stitched swirls, for added interest. You could use an embossing or use as is.
Hair on each mermaid used SAME colors, just utilized a micron pen to create the idea of braids/curls on dark-skinned mermaid
It is sneak peek time over at Scrappy Boy Stamps and the latest release is entitled, “Mermazing.” The images are inspired by The Little Mermaid and the set contains a total of 17 stamps, including 6 sentiments, that you can use to make an endless amount of amazing projects. As always, Scrappy Boy Stamp sets have an optional coordinating die set. Another exciting thing about this month’s release is that Scrappy Boy is also introducing a coordinating paper pack (either 6×6 or slimline), as well as an underwater scene builder stencil, entitled, “Under the Sea Scene Builder.” The stamp set and coordinating add-ons will be available in the Scrappy Boy Stamps Store on RELEASE DAY, Thursday, December 16th. To purchase, please go to shopathomeevents.com/collections/scrappy-boy. We appreciate you taking a peek and supporting Scrappy Boy Stamps.

Mermaid Body/Fin -V01, V12, V15 & V17 – using dots of various sizes and alternating the colors.

Used white gel pen for added dimension, sparkle and detail.
I used die cuts from my stash to create layers for an underwater scene, as I did not have my hands on the underwater scene builder stencil yet. I also made this card before the paper pack was released, so used some mermaid scale patterned paper from Hobby Lobby and heavy white cardstock for the other elements and then colored them up with my COPICS to coordinate with the patterned paper. I also used some coordinating sparkly washi tape to give little pops of color behind the images.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Stay crafty and above all, make sure you have fun!
