Monday Mood: Coffee, Peace & Fangs!

Coffee-fueled humor, groovy peace, and fang-tastic fun! Explore three handmade projects featuring Scrappy Boy stamps and dies, with colorful details and creative ways to mix your crafting stash.

October 5, 2026

Happy Monday, crafty friends! Today I’m sharing three playful projects featuring Scrappy Boy stamps and dies, with many of the layers and pieces adhered using dry adhesive from TapeRunner.com.

☕ Surviving One Monday at a Time

“Powered by Coffee & Deadlines” pretty much sums up Monday! Soft rainbow sentiment blocks, a clipboard-carrying character, and a crisp black frame bring this card together.

The main panel is actually a one layer card and gives the illusion of depth and dimension with simple shadows. I incorporated a pop of color by adding a simple rectangle mat with decorative stitched edge. I still enjoy having layers for a nice substantial weight on my card fronts, as well as the polished look of matting your one-layered panels by using a stitched nested rectangle die to give a small black border/frame and little added interest. 

🌼 Packed with Peace & Personality

Turquoise, yellow, purple flowers, and sparkly peace signs give this smiling Vintage Van Back Pack Add-On plenty of flower-power personality!

The Vintage Van Backpack Add-On Die Set pairs with the Backpack Base Die Set, sold separately. The additional flowers were from the sweet rabbit backpack add-on set already in my stash.

The add-on pieces also work on other shapes! I’ve successfully used these sets with standard A2 bases, coffee cups, trash bins, and other standalone dies from Scrappy Boy’s collection.

  • Details: Flowers are from another back pack add-on called sweet-rabbit-backpack-add-on-die-set, silver peace signs, a decorative zipper pull, and white gel-pen highlights.
  • Copics: Turquoise BG01/BG05/BG09; yellow Y13/Y15/Y17; cream E50/E51/E53; purple V04/V06/V09; pink RV52/RV55/RV66; lights Y17/YR15/YR18; eyes E23/E25/E29.

🦇 Ear-resistibly Spooky

A familiar round-eared friend gets a fang-tastic makeover! Bat wings, torn HEX APPEAL PATTERNED PAPER layers, and cheeky sentiments make this Halloween card more sweet than scary.

  • Details: Black, purple, and orange layers; spiderweb paper; white highlights; and “Nice Fangs!,” “EEK!,” and “Bite Me!” sentiments.
  • I love how Scrappy Boy’s pattern paper has a substantial weight and luxurious feel and gloss coating. When torn towards you, there’s a white core, which is very beneficial when wanting to create added movement and texture on your cards without added bulk.
  • Copics: Face E000/E00/E11; cheeks R20/R22; mouth R14/R24/R29; shaded black details C5/C7/C9. Leave the fangs white! Add white gel pen accents.

💛 Keeping It Together with TapeRunner

Many of my paper layers and die-cut pieces are adhered with TapeRunner.com dry adhesive. The adhesive comes on spools in handheld runners offered in different colors and shapes. They ultimately all serve essentially the same purpose—choose the style that feels comfortable in your hand and the color that makes you happy!

From Running Late to Clocking In: Four Projects from Scrappy Boy’s Latest Release

From running late to clocking in, these four Scrappy Boy projects are ready for a little adventure! I’m sharing the details, products used, and Copic color combos behind each one.

A rabbit with a clock, a watch in New York, and a few unforgettable coworkers—Scrappy Boy’s latest release gave me so many stories to tell! I made four separate projects, each with its own personality. I hope they inspire you to mix new products with the Scrappy Boy favorites already in your craft room.

A Little Late? 🐰

That built-in clock makes this bunny backpack feel ready for an adventure down the rabbit hole! I had fun coloring the bunny and adding little white accents to the blue backpack. I love putting together the different elements, like a puzzle, with my handy-dandy dry adhesive tape runner from Tape Runner. Use code KELLY10 only at Tape Runner for 10% OFF your cart.

I added Stickles to a variety of elements for added interest and sparkle.

Scrappy Boy Stamps’ Products used:

Copic color combinations:

New York Minute ⌚🏙️

The new watch shaker die was a natural companion to Scrappy Boy’s NY Skyline Die Set, as we recognize the 25th Anniversary of 9/11 this year.

For this card, I paired Scrappy Boy’s new Shaker Watch Die with the New York skyline, their 1920’s Elegance bold patterned paper, stitched nested circle dies and a few bright accents.

I used a Spinner from my stash to make the arms on the watch-face rotate.

Products used:

Clocking In 🖥️

The workplace background stamp sets the scene for an office full of familiar little details. I kept the red, black, and white palette running through the whole card, from the chairs to the banner. I used elements from the coordinating paper pack to add visual interest and tie the stamp-set together.

Products used:

Copic color combinations:

  • Chairs and red details: R35, R37, R39
  • Desks and office details: BV20, BV23, N0, N2, N5
  • Stamp and Cut from Professionally Unhinged Patterned Paper

Coworkers Galore 🎂

And what would an office release be without the coworkers? I brought a few of them together for a birthday card with plenty of personality—and a very relatable request for cake!

Products used:

Copic color combinations:

That’s what I love about a Scrappy Boy release: one product can spark an idea for another. The bunny’s clock led me to the watch, and the workplace scene led me straight to the coworkers. Which of these four projects is your favorite?

Spooky Cute with the Scrappy Boy Stamps August Release! 🦇🎃

Get spooky cute with the Scrappy Boy Stamps August Release! I’m mixing stamps, dies, paper and a little unexpected inspiration to create Halloween projects filled with dimension, personality and fun—including a special treat box made for my grandson and one of our favorite Halloween traditions. 🎃🦇✨

If you know me, you know I LOVE finding unexpected ways to use my crafty supplies! Sometimes a stamp or die may have been designed with one idea in mind, but I immediately start thinking, “What else can I turn this into?” And living in Central Florida, it probably comes as no surprise that a little theme park inspiration frequently sneaks into my craft room!

For these projects, I pulled out some of the spooky-cute goodies from the Scrappy Boy Stamps August Release and gave them my own magical Halloween twist.

“Have a Wicked Good Time” Gothic Picture Frame card

The Gothic Picture Frame Die was perfect for framing one of the adorable images from Hex Appeal. I kept the traditional Halloween palette of purple, black, orange and white, adding little pops of sparkle to the spiderweb details. I love how the oversized frame makes the stamped image feel like a spooky portrait hanging inside a haunted mansion.

Mouse Bat card — “You’re the Treat I Was Hoping For

Then came those Mouse Bat Embellishment Dies! These were just begging for some theme park-inspired fun. I played with layers, patterned papers, torn edges and white gel-pen accents to create two completely different Halloween cards.

Mouse Bat card — “Nice Fangs! Eek! Bite Me!”

The dimensional bat ears make such a fun focal point, especially when paired with those classic Halloween colors. I especially love how differently the same basic die can look simply by changing the background, composition and embellishments.

And I couldn’t stop there!

Full Pumpkin Mouse project showing both the card and dimensional folio/box

The Pumpkin Mouse Backpack Add-On became the star of one of my favorite projects. Instead of treating it simply as a backpack element, I transformed that big pumpkin into a dimensional Halloween centerpiece and paired it with plaid and spiderweb papers. A little tissue paper and some fun halloween treats and gift cards and you have a decorative, heartfelt gift and memory holder once emptied.

Close-up of Pumpkim

Lots of ink blending, deep shadows, white gel-pen highlights, lovingly put together with my hand-held adhesive from Tape Runner and a little shimmer helped bring all of those layers to life. The close-up really shows how much dimension and texture can be added to simple paper die cuts.

This treat box is especially close to my heart because I created it for our grandson, Nolan, as we prepare for our second annual visit to the Mouse’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at the theme park, a tradition that combines celebrating his birthday with officially kicking off the Halloween season here in Central Florida!

I personalized the back with his name and even pulled in the castle die from a previous Scrappy Boy Stamps release, which was the perfect way to add another little touch of magic. I love mixing pieces from different releases and finding completely new ways to use them, but even more, I love knowing that this project will become part of another special memory with our grandson. 🎃🏰🧡

Finally, I had to play with the Haunted House Folio. I went for an eerie-but-cute abandoned mansion look with weathered grays, soft lavender, glowing golden windows, bats, spiderwebs, a pumpkin and even a creepy little hand reaching up from below. It was easy to position and adhere the smaller pieces with my hand-held Tape Runner. This project has so many tiny details to discover!

That’s probably my favorite part about crafting: the dies give you the pieces, but your imagination gets to decide what they become.

I hope these projects inspire you to pull out your supplies and look at them a little differently. Mix collections. Change the intended theme. Add unexpected colors. Turn an embellishment into the focal point. Most importantly, have fun creating something that’s completely you.

Happy crafting — and stay spooky! 🦇🎃✨

👻 Haunted House Folio Die | Scrappy Boy Stamps

See how the Scrappy Boy Stamps Haunted House Folio Die comes together layer by layer! I first build the entire haunted house in white cardstock and photograph each stage as a reference. Then I can take it apart, add all the spooky color and details, and assemble everything using my favorite TapeRunner.com handheld adhesive tape runners. Use code KELLY10 to save 10%.

There’s something spooky happening at Stamped by Kelly! 🦇🏚️

Today I’m featuring the Haunted House Folio Die from the August Release from Scrappy Boy Stamps, and this one was SO much fun to create!

I love a die set that gives you plenty of room to make it your own, and this haunted house definitely delivers. I created two completely different looks to show just how versatile it can be.

For my first version, I went with a classic Halloween palette of deep purple, black, gray and bright spooky green. I added texture to the house panels and layered all of those fabulous little details—the bats, spiderweb, ghost, creepy hand, fence, pumpkin and more. The bright green windows give it that perfect eerie glow!

For my second version, I decided to get a little messier! I used a combination of inks, splatters and coordinating patterned papers from the Hex Appeal bundle to create a distressed, grungy haunted-house feel. I love how the oranges, purples and blacks work together while the bright yellow-green windows really pop against the darker colors.

One die set—two totally different haunted houses! That is exactly what I love about dies like this. You can keep it clean and coordinated or pull out the inks, patterned papers and splatters and make it wonderfully creepy.

The Haunted House Folio Die is part of Scrappy Boy Stamps’ August release and is packed with details that make it perfect for Halloween cards, folios, albums, home décor and more.

Started with 4 main layers.

Building the Haunted House Folio — Layer by Layer

Each layer builds upon the next to create this fun Haunted House Flipbook/Folio. Before adding color or patterned paper, I like to:

  • 🤍 Die-cut and assemble each layer in white cardstock to create a visual reference.
  • 📸 Photograph each stage so I can easily remember how all those little pieces fit together.
  • 🎨 Take everything back apart and decorate each panel individually with coloring, patterned papers, and embellishments.
  • 🏠 Reassemble and permanently adhere each layer using my favorite handheld adhesive tape runners from TapeRunner.com.

This little extra planning step makes decorating a detailed project so much easier—and I have my photos to reference when it’s time to put the whole haunted house back together!

🚀 Create an Interactive Card That’s Out of This World!

Create an interactive space-themed rocking card with easy Copic coloring and a 360° spinning sentiment using the new SpinCycle Micro Rotators. Put together with a combination of my favorite wet and dry adhesives. Perfect for making someone smile!

One of my favorite things about cardmaking is combining Copic coloring with interactive elements. There’s just something magical about handing someone a card that actually moves. It immediately brings a smile to their face!

For today’s project, I reached for the adorable Such an Asteroid stamp set and created a rocking card that features not one—but two interactive elements!

The entire card gently rocks back and forth, while the sentiment spins a full 360 degrees.

Color First…Then Build Your Scene

Before I even think about assembling my card, I always start with the coloring.

These sweet astronauts from Such An Asteroid stamp set were an absolute joy to color with Copics. I kept the spacesuits bright and clean using cool grays and added pops of vibrant reds and blues to coordinate with the rocket. For the night sky, I blended rich blues into a soft glow behind the astronauts before splattering white paint to create the stars.

One of my favorite things about space-themed cards is that there’s no right or wrong. You can create colorful galaxies, glowing planets, or simply let your imagination take over.

Interactive Cards Don’t Have to Be Complicated

If you’ve never made a rocking card before, don’t let it intimidate you.

In fact, you probably already have everything you need!

Look through your craft room for:

  • Circle dies
  • A circle cutter
  • Bowls or plates to trace
  • Or simply fold your cardstock in half and cut a half-circle, just like we all learned in kindergarten.

Sometimes the simplest supplies create the most memorable cards.

Add Even More Movement

Want to take your interactive cards to the next level?

The new SpinCycle Micro Rotators from Pajama Crafter Stamps make it incredibly easy to add spinning elements to your projects.

I used one behind my sentiment so it spins a full 360°, but that’s only the beginning!

Imagine adding them to:

  • planets
  • stars
  • balloons
  • flowers
  • steering wheels
  • snowflakes
  • pinwheels
  • ornaments
  • little critters
  • anything you want to twirl!

You can even add multiple SpinCycle Micro Rotators to a single card to create several independently spinning elements. The possibilities are almost endless, and they add such a fun surprise for the recipient.

Copic Color Combinations

I always enjoy sharing the colors I use in case you’d like to recreate the look or adapt it to your own project.

Products Used

Final Thoughts

Interactive cards may look impressive, but they’re surprisingly easy to create—and they’re always the cards people remember.

Whether you use supplies already in your craft room or decide to try the new SpinCycle Micro Rotators, I hope this project inspires you to add a little movement to your next handmade card.

After all, handmade cards should be just as fun to play with as they are to create!

🎡 Craft Roulette Recap | Fruit Salad Bridge Card with Pajama Crafter Stamps

🎡 This week’s Craft Roulette challenge had me creating a bright and playful bridge card using fruit salad colors, a fun “J” element (hello, jammies! 😄), and bold swipe techniques that bring the whole design to life. Featuring adorable images from Pajama Crafter Stamps, this card is packed with color, dimension, and personality!

There’s just something about Craft Roulette that pushes creativity in the best possible way! This week’s parameters came together for a project that is bright, playful, and just a little too relatable.

🎯 This Week’s Parameters:

Bridge Card Design , Salad Colors, Something that starts with “J” and Swipe or Swipes

🃏 Building the Card Design

I started with the bridge card base, which is one of my favorite interactive-style layouts. It creates dimension while still folding flat—perfect for mailing but with that extra wow factor when displayed.

From there, I leaned into the fruit salad color palette, pulling in bright, juicy tones that instantly give off happy, summery vibes. Think citrusy oranges, golden yellow pineapples, strawberry fuchsia, berry reds, and pops of fresh granny-smith apple greens—it’s impossible not to smile at this combination!

🔤 The “J” Element

For my “J,” I went with jammies—because honestly, what’s better than crafting in your comfiest clothes? 😄

I used adorable images from stamp set called PAJAMA POWER available at Pajama Crafter Stamps and paired them with the perfectly fitting sentiment:

“Born to Lounge, Forced to Work”

I mean… if that doesn’t sum up real life, I don’t know what does!

🎨 Swipe Details

The “swipes” bring this card to life. I incorporated:

Rainbow swipes in the background to add movement and energy A coordinating swipe across the bridge panel, tying everything together visually

To anchor the design, I added matted circle elements across the bridge, each highlighting the stamped images and helping guide your eye across the card.

💡 Final Thoughts

This project is the perfect example of how a structured challenge can spark unexpected creativity. The mix of:

dimensional design bold color choices playful theme

…made this one such a joy to create!

Two Cards, One Creative Release: From Magical Journeys to Fandom Fun ✨

Two cards, one release—and completely different vibes! From a magical backpack shaker card featuring a clear-front-and-back gate to a fandom-inspired fun fold, these projects show just how versatile this release can be. Come see all the details!

Hi crafty friends!

Today I’m sharing two very different card projects created from the same Scrappy Boy Stamps release—and I love how each one takes on its own personality!

✨ Shaped Backpack Card – A Magical Journey

First up is this shaped backpack card featuring elements inspired by a certain classic adventure. I incorporated the iconic yellow brick road along with the gates to an emerald city to really bring the scene to life.

The highlight of this design is the interactive shaker gate—and not just any shaker! I created it with a clear front and back so you can see the movement from both sides. It adds such a fun, unexpected detail and makes the card feel extra special.

I used both wet and dry adhesive to put together my elements. For 10% Off TAPERUNNER products at TapeRunner’s website using promo-code KELLY10.

One of my favorite things about the backpack die is how versatile it is. While I used it as a card base here, you could easily turn this into a treat holder or even a mini album by adding a few extra elements.

👀 Fandom-Inspired Fun Fold Card

For my second project, I went in a completely different direction with a fandom-inspired design and a fun fold card secured with a belly band.

This style was perfect for showcasing multiple patterned papers from the release. I love mixing and layering prints, and this fold really lets each one shine while still feeling cohesive.

And for those who recognize the inspiration—this one is a subtle nod to a certain road-tripping duo who spend their time facing the unknown. 😉

💡 Why I Love This Release

What really stands out to me is how versatile this release is. From whimsical, storybook-inspired designs to bold fandom creations, there’s so much you can do depending on your style and mood.

In today’s feature, I’m sharing three distinct card designs created using Scrappy Boy Stamps’ newest release. Each project highlights a different product and aesthetic:

Exploring the newest Scrappy Boy Stamps release has been such a creative journey! For this set of projects, I challenged myself to take three very different elements—the Spooky Farmhouse background, the Wings & Sun dies, and the Little Pig Backpack add-on—and design cards that each tell their own story. From moody and textured to bright and uplifting to sweet and playful, these cards may look completely different at first glance—but there’s a common thread in how they were built. Take a closer look and see if you can spot what ties them all together! It’s my adhesive from TAPERUNNER.COM! Use Kelly10 for 10%OFF only at TapeRunner.com website.

The Spooky Farmhouse 6×6 Background Stamp brings in layered texture and seasonal depth. I cut it down to fit a standard A2 sized card front.

The Wings & Sun Dieset offers a softer, uplifting focal point with dimension. I ran the diecut wings through an embossing machine using a folder from my stash. I think it adds fun dimension, but not necessary. I then applied foam tape in thin strips to create waves and movement. The sentiment is from Bump In The Night and great to send an uplifting message, “Angels Are Always Watching.”

The Little Pig Back-Pack Add On adds a whimsical, character-driven element. Featuring the dry adhesive from TapeRunner and use PROMO CODE KELLY10 for 10%OFF your TapeRunner Cart.

Love putting my layers together with TapeRunner dry adhesive. Less Mess! Convenience ❤️

I wanted the pig to be dressed like a bee, so I used yellow snd black card for the body and ran the mouth diecut through a second time and cut the flower zipper pull a teo times in black to create a bee antennae. The bee is from the Honey Bear Back Pack Add-On Set.. Patterned papers are from the Honey Bear 6×9 paper pack. All of the Little Pig’s body cut from the pink striped patterned papers, with some elements colored with alcohol markers, white gel pen and crystal glaze for added shine.

Coincidentally, I found delight in the “I’ve Got Your Back” sentiment from Bump In The Night, which is a perfect for those who love a GOOD PUN! Perfect for ANY backpack project, LOL!

While each project stands on its own stylistically, they were intentionally designed with a unifying creative approach. Support small businesses and find these products and so much more at Scrappy Boy Stamps

Creative Fun with the New Scrappy Boy Stamps Release

Discover three fun paper crafting projects featuring the newest release from Scrappy Boy Stamps! In this post, I’m sharing an A2 scene card, a playful mini slimline card, and a creative Easter favor made with the Shabubu Head Card Die and Blind Box Die. I’m also sharing one of my favorite crafting tips—using dry adhesive from Tape Runner to keep layers smooth and warp-free while assembling detailed card designs. ✂️✨

The newest release from Scrappy Boy Stamps is packed with playful characters, creative dies, and fun papers that make crafting an absolute joy! Today I’m sharing three different paper projects featuring items from this release. Each project highlights how easily these products can be mixed, matched, and customized to create something truly unique.

Before we jump into the projects, I also want to share one of my favorite crafting essentials. When assembling my cards and layered die cuts, I almost always reach for dry adhesive from Tape Runner. Dry adhesive is fantastic for cardmaking because it helps keep papers—especially lighter weighted papers—from warping or developing ripples, which can sometimes happen with wetter adhesives.

Another reason I love using dry adhesive is that it’s a bit more forgiving at the start. If something isn’t perfectly aligned, you can gently warm the adhesive with a heat tool and carefully lift the piece to reposition it before it fully bonds. This makes it much easier to straighten layers and fine-tune placement while assembling your design.

If you’d like to give it a try, you can visit taperunner.com and use the promo code KELLY10 to receive 10% off your entire cart.

A2 Landscape Card – The Other Side

For my first project, I created an A2 landscape card using the The Other Side Stamps & Outline Dies. I paired the images with the Beyond The Normal Living Room Background Stamp to build a fun and detailed scene.

To pull the design together, I used patterned papers from the Beyond the Normal 6×9 Paper Pack. The papers coordinate beautifully with the stamped images and really help bring the entire card to life. I love how easy it is to create a full scene with this collection—it almost feels like stepping right into the story.

When layering the stamped images and patterned papers, I used dry adhesive from Tape Runner to keep everything smooth and flat. Scene cards often include multiple layers, and dry adhesive helps prevent bubbling or distortion in the patterned paper.

Products Used

The Other Side Stamps & Outline Dies Beyond The Normal Living Room Background Stamp (6×6) Beyond The Normal 6×9 Paper Pack

Mini Slimline Card – Ham It Up

Next, I created a playful mini slimline card using the adorable Ham It Up collection.

This project features the Ham It Up Stamps, Outline Dies, and the coordinating 6×9 Paper Pack. The patterned papers add the perfect pop of color, while the stamped images bring so much personality to the card.

Mini slimline cards are such a fun format when you want something a little different while still keeping the design simple and eye-catching. I again used dry adhesive from Tape Runner while assembling the layers and die cuts because it works wonderfully for stacking die-cut elements while keeping everything smooth and wrinkle-free.

Shabubu Easter Favor – A Fun Surprise Project

For my third project, I wanted to create something a little unexpected! I used the Shabubu Head Card Die and paired it with the Blind Box Die with Rip Strip to design a fun Easter favor or small gift project.

The Blind Box die creates a playful interactive element with the rip strip, making the project feel like opening a surprise package. To personalize the favor, I added a custom message using the Scrappy Boy Alphabet Die.

This would be perfect for Easter treats, small gifts, or party favors, and I love how these dies can be combined in creative ways to create something completely new. While building up the layered die pieces for the Shabubu design, dry adhesive from Tape Runner made it easy to stack the layers neatly while keeping everything perfectly flat.

So Many Creative Possibilities

This newest release from Scrappy Boy Stamps offers so many fun ways to create cards, gifts, and interactive projects. Whether you’re making detailed scene cards, mini slimlines, or surprise gift packaging, these products make it easy to craft something memorable.

And when it comes to assembling those layers, dry adhesive from Tape Runner is one of my favorite tools for keeping papers smooth, preventing warping, and allowing a little flexibility while putting everything together.
