Crafting Magic with Scrappy Boy’s YARN MINI ALBUM / CARD DIE: Snowman Edition!

Fun downloadable to pair with items in your SCRAPPY BOY stash…or any circle dies, cutters or cut your own out of construction paper. Great activity for kids, grandchildren and everyone in between!

Happy Monday, crafty friends! 🎉✨ Today, I’m excited to share a delightful project using the Scrappy Boy YARN MINI ALBUM / CARD DIE. With just a few simple steps, you can create an adorable snowman that’s perfect for the winter season! Plus, I’ll showcase two additional projects featuring Scrappy Boy stamp sets to highlight the versatility of this die. Let’s get started!

Snowman.pdf Download

Step 1: Print the Free Download

Head over to my blog at http://www.stampedbykelly.com (http://www.stampedbykelly.com) to grab your fun download, which includes a step-by-step guide and templates for your snowman project.

Tip: Make sure to print on cardstock for better durability!

Step 2: Cut Your Pieces

Using the YARN MINI ALBUM / CARD DIE, cut out the snowman pieces from white cardstock:

Base: This will be the mat underneath the head of your snowman.
I cut my top layer out of white glitter cardstock for extra interest.
Accessories: Cut out scarf and “coal” from colored cardstock or white (easy) and color up with Black Markers.

If you own the TRAILER MINI ALBUM / CARD DIE, you can also create wheels by cutting circles from black cardstock instead of the printed coal circles!

I cut in white card and colored up with my COPIC 100.

Step 3: Color Your Accessories

Bring your snowman to life by coloring the accessories. Use markers, colored pencils, or your favorite coloring medium to add personality to your snowman!

Step 4: Assemble Your Snowman. I used the TAPE RUNNER MINI to put my snowman together. You can get 10% OFF your purchase at http://taperunner.com using PROMO CODE: KELLY10

Now it’s time to put it all together!

Start with the base: Attach the snowman’s head (the smaller winky circle) die to the base (the larger circle).
Add accessories: Glue scarf and buttons (Scrappy Boy Shirt Mini Album Card Die), circles (tires and hubcaps from the TRAILER MINI ALBUM AND CARD DIE) or a circle punch from your stash. If you like to fussy-cut, the circles are on the printable page.
Final touches: Add white gel pen accents to eyes, carrot nose and mouth.

Additional Projects to Inspire You

Yarn Ball Card
Using the same die, I created a cheerful yarn ball card perfect for any crafting enthusiast. Just cut and decorate with bright, fun colors—it’s a great way to brighten someone’s day! Stamp set is the CUTE GIRLS CAT LOVERS: https://scrappyboy.com/products/cute-girls-cat-lovers-6×8-stamp-set
Volleyball Encouragement Card
I transformed the YARN MINI ALBUM / CARD DIE into a volleyball for a fun volleyball-themed card! Just ink blend over with a gray or extremely light handed-blending with black and use the embossed die-cut piece,. The ink reveals and accentuates the texture.

Unleashing Creativity: Merging Stamped Images for Whimsical Creations

Hey, fellow crafters! 🌟

Today, let’s dive into the magical world of stamping and explore how we can transform our stamped images into whimsical scenes that tell entirely new stories. The beauty of crafting lies in its endless possibilities, and merging different stamp sets allows us to stretch our imaginations beyond the original designs!

Why Mix and Mash?

Often, we get caught up in using our stamps exactly as intended. But what if we dare to break that mold? By mixing and mashing our favorite stamped images, we can create unique narratives that are both fun and unexpected! Think about taking a flower from one set and placing it alongside a character from another—suddenly, you’ve got a new scene full of life and creativity! 🌈✨

Embrace the Joy of Creation

One of the best parts of crafting is enjoying the process itself. Don’t worry about strict rules or expected outcomes. Allow your instincts to guide you! Even if things don’t turn out as planned, each creation is a step on your artistic journey.

Right now, I have a fun project on my desk that’s in the works. I can’t wait to see how it evolves! Let’s inspire one another with fresh ideas and push our boundaries together.

Join Me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stampedbykelly?igsh=b2dmZ3gydm5jM2N5&utm_source=qr

So, grab your favorite stamps, cut them out, and start mixing! Let’s stamp our way to creativity and make this journey colorful and fun. Don’t forget to share your creations with me @stampedbykelly I’m always looking for new inspiration!

Happy stamping! 🖌️✨

Crafting for your Health – Card Projects to Spark Your Creativity

Hello, fellow crafters! 🌼✨ Today, I want to share 3 card projects with you, all of which brought me so much joy and a sense of calm while creating. Crafting is such a wonderful way to relieve stress and express your creativity, and I hope my projects can encourage you to create your own.

Project 1: The New Yorkers Stamp Set 🌇

For my first project, I played with the New Yorkers stamp set along with the coordinating outline dies and some lovely pattern paper that adds character to my design.

My next project is a celebration of New York. Adding details with white gel pen and variety of Sharpies Acrylic Paint Brush Pens to give them depth and texture. It was a real joy to capture the essence of New York City, and I love how the colors came together.

My goal was to showcase the iconic skyline and capture the city’s spirit while reminding myself how versatile these products can be.

Project 2: Sneak Peek – Different Techniques with the Same Set 👀 Of you love The Mouse, consider following me @stampedbykelly on Social Media.

I’m excited to share a little sneak peek of my second project, which also features the New York Die Set. This time, I took a different approach with my techniques, and I was surprised at how refreshing felt to experiment while using the same set. It’s amazing how changing colors and methods can lead to such different outcomes! I look forward to sharing the full project in the coming week and I hope it encourages you to look at your supplies in a new light.

Project 3: Cute Kids Military Set 🎖️

Lastly, I want to introduce you to the adorable Cute Kids Military stamp set from Scrappy Boy. Honoring those who protect our freedoms, this sweet set showcases charming designs in the Cute Kids’ style representing different branches of the military. It truly warms my heart! ❤️

I enjoyed using the coordinating pattern papers that reflect patriotism and complement the playful illustrations. The sentiments in this set are heartfelt, and I hope they inspire others to create cards that celebrate our heroes in a meaningful way.

Conclusion 🎉

Crafting is not just about creating—it’s about the journey and the joy it brings to our lives. I hope my projects inspire you to use what you have, explore new techniques, and look at products differently than they were originally intended. Remember, it’s completely okay to be yourself in your craft, and there’s no right or wrong way to create. Happy crafting, friends! ✂️🌟

Unleashing Creativity: The Magic of Die Cuts with Scrappy Boy Stamps 🎉✂️

Hello, crafty friends! This week, I’m excited to share some unique card creations that showcase the power and versatility of die cuts, using fabulous products from Scrappy Boy Stamps. While I usually gravitate towards stamping and coloring with alcohol markers, stepping out of my comfort zone with die cuts opened up a whole new world of creativity. Let’s dive into the details of my three fun projects.

First up, we have a fun-fold marquee die cut card that instantly captures attention. Imagine saying anything you want using the Scrappy Boy Alphabet Dies framed within a dazzling marquee structure! The die cut serves as a stunning focal point, drawing the viewer in with its playful whimsy. To bring the card to life, I used bright colors and a custom sentiment as a nod to a fun scene from the film.

Next is a card that is a bit of a twist on traditional design—the previously released hoodie mini album card die cut transformed into a funky zipper jacket! 😍 To create this playful piece, I combined the hoodie die cut with the zipper from the backpack die set. The result? A fabulous jacket paired with the adorable amusement park pattern papers that give it a fun, themed flair. The details of the zipper add an element of surprise and creativity that’s bound to leave an impression. Plus, I couldn’t resist adding the cute mouse hand zipper pull for that extra touch of amusement park charm.

Last but not least, I crafted a delightful cart die cut card, brimming with holiday spirit! 🌟 This cart can be filled with anything your heart desires, but I chose to fill it with whimsical Christmas packages and a charming themed bear plush. I ised my alcohol markers to give the bear die additional personality. To achieve a festive look, I added a red ribbon on the bear’s neck, perfectly complementing the vibrant colors on the patterned paper. I even tucked in a Christmas tree die cut to enhance the holiday feel. The Christmas tree is taken from a previously released Cute Girls Stamp Set called Cute Girl Christmas Toys. These die cuts offer endless possibilities, allowing you to personalize cards for any occasion—birthdays, holidays, or just to spread some cheer!

Tips for Using Die Cuts Creatively:

Layering and Combinations: Don’t hesitate to mix and match different die cuts and Scrappy Boy sets to create something entirely new. My zipper jacket was a collaboration of different die sets that resulted in a unique design.
Play with Patterns: Use themed patterned papers like I did with the amusement park collection. They add depth and character to your card projects, making them stand out.
Think Outside the Box: Die cuts don’t have to be used as-is. Let your imagination run wild, and consider how you can modify or adapt them to fit your creative vision.

Final Thoughts

Die cuts are an incredible way to elevate your card-making game. With products from Scrappy Boy Stamps, the sky truly is the limit! Whether you’re crafting a fun movie scene or a festive holiday cart, using die cuts creatively can bring your stunning visions to life.

I can’t wait to see what you create using die cuts! Share your masterpieces and tag me—let’s inspire each other in this wonderful crafting journey! Happy crafting! 🎨💖✋

A2 Fun Fold Stadium Card featuring Pajama Crafter Stamps

While we celebrate love today, over at Pajama Crafter Stamps, we’re kicking off March Madness!

Hop along for chance to win 2 sets from release!

🎉 That means it’s time to gear up for everything from exciting sports events to St. Patrick’s Day shenanigans—and yes, if those Stanley-style cups are your thing, we’ve got you covered!

Introducing the Project: Lucky Leprechaun Fun Fold Card! 🌟

Today, I’m thrilled to share a whimsical St. Patrick’s Day card that features a fun fold technique. This A2-sized card lays flat for easy mailing but transforms into a stunning 3D display that beautifully showcases adorable patterned papers and festive images all in one delightful project! It stands majestically on a desk or shelf, ready to spread cheer and admiration.

Here’s What You’ll Need:

A selection of vibrant patterned papers that evoke the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day from the Emerald Isle 6×6 Paper Pad.
The cheerful Leprechaun, three-leaf clover and Happy St. Patty’s Day sentiment stamps are from the You’re My Pot of Gold stamp set.
Paper Trimmer, liquid adhesive, Heavy Weight white cardstock, Acetate, foam/dimensional foam popdots/tape, bone folder, scoring board, favorite coloring medium and black ink.

Crafting Details:
I’ll guide you through the fun fold technique that makes this card truly special! These folds add depth and dimension to your design, making it a fantastic way to display cute patterns and playful images. Each layer tells a story, embodying the excitement of both St. Patrick’s Day and the upcoming March festivities!

Start with your standard A2 panel- 5.5 in x 4.25 in

Next, using a scoring board or your paper trimmer with a score blade and take your panel in portrait and score 3/4 in from the left and right longer sides of the panel.

Cut 2 strips white cardstock at 1 1/4 inch x 5 3/4 in

Score BOTH strips using scoring board or paper trimmer at 3/4 in, 2 in, 3 3/4 in, and then at 5 in.

Scored each at: 3/4 in, 2 in, 3 3/4 in and 5 in

Then using your bone folder, mountain fold each

Here is what we have created as your base without embellishing or glue

As you craft, enjoy the process of layering papers and arranging your stamped images. Every cut and stamp will bring you one step closer to creating a unique piece that captures the essence of celebration.

Now we need to cut patterned papers & embellish

Green Plaid Paper: 2 thin strips cut 3/4 in wide by 5 1/2 inch long, glued to the inside of the A2 panel in those 2 flaps you scored on each side. Cut another larger panel of green plaid 2 3/8 x 5 1/2 inch. See photo above for placement.

Clover Patterned Paper: Cut 1 strip at 1 inch x 4 inches and another, 1 inch x 3 inches. I cut the 4 inch x 1 inch into 4 separate 1 inch pieces, which are the 4 clover squares below. I cut tge 3 inch piece x 1 in half, leaving two separate 1 x 1.5 inch pieces, which are placed in the middle of the 2 squares. The picture below should give you a good idea of placement.

All the cut pieces cut and shown where to place when decorating your stadium card.

The back of project. Cut 2 strips of patterned paper in clover 3/4 in wide by 5 1/2 inches. These will be glued last to cover the seams along the side edges after you glue the top stadium strip and bottom stadium strip.

Cut a piece of clear acetate 1 3/8 inch x 4 inches. This will be placed strategically tucked inside the center panel, once the card base is assembled and decorated. You’ll want to use glue dots or foam tape sparingly to embellish the acetate, being careful of not having foam tape or glue overlap causing some areas to stick together that we want to pop out freely.

Final Touch:

Stamp leprechaun image with Memento black ink and color with Copic Markers (or stamp and color with YOUR favorite medium)

Copic Color Combos:

E05, E11, E00, E000, R20

G24, G46, YG03

Y00, Y02

E07, E37, E35, E33

C7, C5,C3

Complete your card with the adorable Leprechaun and a spirited sentiment that embraces the fun of the season. I used Seafoam Stickles (glitter glue) to add extra shine and interest to my shamrock and coins. This isn’t just a regular greeting card; it’s a joyful art piece perfect for anyone who loves a little luck in their life!

So grab your supplies and dive into this crafty adventure as we celebrate Valentine’s Day while eagerly preparing for the vibrant energies of March Madness!
