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.

Crafting a Spooktacular Halloween Card: Unleash the Magic! 🎉✨

Hello, fellow crafters! As we embrace the autumn season, I couldn’t resist diving into the fun world of Halloween crafting! Today, I want to share a whimsical card idea that combines some fabulous products I adore: the Mason Jar Mini Album Die, Ghost Mouse Die Set, the Farm Truck Envelope Add-On Die Set and Marquee Die Set from Scrappy Boy Stamps. Get ready to brew up some enchanting creations! 🌙👻✨

🪄 Here’s How I Crafted This Card:

Jar Full of Magic:
I started by using the Mason Jar Die to create a spooky container that perfectly fits my theme. This jar will be the home for the cutest little pet ghosts, making it not just a card but a magical keepsake! 🐾💀
Adorable Ghost Friends:
Next up, I pulled out the Ghost Mouse Die Set to cut out some charming little ghosts. Their playful expressions are simply irresistible and add a delightful touch to the card! 😻👻
Perfectly Styled Tags:
Now, let’s talk about the Marquee Die Set! I used it to create smaller font letters to add to my tag that accentuate my jar beautifully. You can personalize them with your pet ghost’s name or just label it as “Pet Ghost!” These little details make the card feel even more special. Tie it on with some Bakers Twine! 💖🗒️
Embellishments Galore:
To finish off my card, I added fun embellishments like fall leaves and pumpkins from the Farm Truck Envelope Add On Set. I created a shaker, so this set was perfect to make custom fillers to shake around. The goal is to make this card truly one-of-a-kind, full of the season’s magic! 🎃✨

Share the Love!
As a member of the Scrappy Boy Stamps’ Design Team, I truly enjoy exploring my creativity and sharing it with all of you. Let’s toast to a spooktacular crafting session together, where every pet ghost shines as bright as the autumn moon!

Exciting New Cards Featuring Scrappy Boy Stamps’ August Release!

Scrappy Boy Stamps’ August 2025 Release Inspration

Hello, crafty friends! 🎉

I’m thrilled to share my recent card creations using products from Scrappy Boy Stamps’ August release! Each project showcases a unique theme that I can’t wait for you to see!

🦇 Fun Fold Card Inspired by a Cult Classic

First up, I created a fun fold card inspired by a quirky underworld couple from a beloved movie. This card is perfect for Halloween lovers! With enchanting pattern papers and a main character that brings a smile, it’s a delightful addition to any Halloween celebration. 👻💀

Creating a Z-fold card in A2 size is simple and fun! Start with a piece of cardstock measuring 4.25” x 11” and score it at 2.75” and 5.5” along the long side. Fold the cardstock in half at the 5.5” score line, creating the first ‘Z’ fold. Then, take the smaller section and fold it back on itself at the 2.75” score line. This will give you a card that opens in a zigzag manner. Decorate each panel as desired, and you’ll have a beautiful Z-fold card perfect for any occasion! Happy crafting!

🔍 Crafty Twist on a Favorite Show

Next, I took inspiration from a show I adore, where amateur sleuths navigate mysteries in their fancy apartment building. This time, there’s a twist—my characters are all crafters! 🎨✂️ I’ve customized each character image with specific colors to make them instantly recognizable, and added crafty elements from the “Crafting Tools Die Set Add-On Craft Cart.”

Crafting inspiration can come from the smallest details! By layering cardstock and utilizing elements from your stash, like the crafty elements from the add-on set for the craft cart, you can beautifully tie your design together and add depth. I also love to create custom sentiments using my printer, which I cut out and pop up with dimensional foam tape for added interest. One of my favorite aspects of the Scrappy Boy line is how it mimics the images in the coordinating pattern paper, creating miniature versions that are perfect for fussy cutting. Incorporating these into my scenes brings an extra layer of creativity to my projects!

🎡 Whimsical SHAKER Mouse Wand

Lastly, I’m excited to introduce the new standalone Magnifying Glass Die that coordinates with the Cute Kids Detective Set! Instead of a standard magnifying glass, I paired it with fun theme park elements and colorful papers, creating a whimsical SHAKER mouse wand. 🎈🐭 I even made some shaker bits using coordinating cardstock and shaker cover plate dies to add that extra flair! The zipper pull mouse hand die creates a fun “dangle” on the SHAKER wand.

I’m excited to share how I transformed the magnifying glass into a theme park-inspired shaker wand! Many of the elements released are perfectly sized to layer with other items in your stash, so don’t hesitate to mix and match or get creative with die cuts—even using the negative space they leave behind. I love the fun new spin I was able to give the magnifying glass, especially with the addition of a dangle made from a zipper pull mouse hand die on the handle! Inside the shaker, I filled it with confetti and cut pieces from a cover plate die, creating shaker bits that perfectly match my project. How fun is it to elevate your creations this way? Be sure to check out all the fantastic products available at scrappyboy.com!

Celebrating International Pi Day on 3/14

I am following up after my LIVE held on Tuesday, 3/14, International Pi Day, where I started to share how to get creative and make something fun and unique to honor the day! And what better and CALORIE FREE way to celebrate Pi Day, than by creating a pie shaker element using the Circle Shaker Basics 1 set from Stamp Anniething?

A pre-recorded video will be shared on the Stamp Anniething Stampers Facebook page shortly which will provide additional details and elaborate more on how to create this shaker element and two 5.5 inch square cards. My initial LIVE was cut short due to a family emergency and appreciate everyone’s concern. We are all good now!

To get started, you’ll need the Circle Shaker Basics 1 set, some cardstock in your desired color, chipboard, acetate sheet, shaker bits and liquid adhesive. Begin by die-cutting 5 circles using the circle “frame” die from the set – one from cardstock and the others from chipboard. Make sure when gluing together, they match up in size.

5 chipboard & 1 card-stock – image shows which dies to use to cut. Keep negative pieces for a future project. Cut acetate sheet with the single die at the top. Later, we will use this to seal your pie and create barrier to hold shaker bits in.

Next, layer of each die-cut with the liquid adhesive and use brayer or your fingers to make sure the layers are stacked evenly and ensure there is no air or separation between layers to prevent your shaker bits from escaping.

Running brayer over each layer helps create a strong seal, keeping shaker fill where it belongs.

Now, add the shaker bits-on top of the cardstock circle in the well you created, as desired – you can add whatever you want to create interest (sequins, clay shaker bits, etc). I used jelly dots. You can use one color or simply mix a variety of colors for a more random look, as I have done here. Once you’re happy with how the shaker filling are arranged, carefully glue the cardstock circle onto the top on the acetate circle to seal.

See the depth created by layering chipboard versus using foam tape.

To create wavy pie crust edge, trace circle onto coordinating card stock. Then cut with scissors a curvy edge about 1/2 inch wider than the initial line drawn. Ink blend edges to look like it browned in oven and finish with white gel pen for added interest.

This photo shows the different pieces that will be glued together to create pie

Fill well with shaker bits after gluing down to free-handed circle you traced and fussy cut to create the wavy outside of the pie crust edge. This seals one side of your pie element. Place something heavy to ensure good adhesion.

Finally, you can add some touches to make it look like a pie – for example, you can cut small strips of card stock in 1/4 in strips either with decorative scissors or your paper trimmer. Consider ink blending the edges to create a visual effect of being browned in the oven. Other options for a decorative edge could be to use the edger dies from Stamp Anniething to make it look more like rippled pastry to form the lattice crust.

Ink blend your strips and glue down in s lattice design snd then cut off any edges that hang over.

Layer strips and glue down to single frame to create pie top.

And voila – you now have a pie shaker element that you can use to decorate cards, scrapbook pages, or even as a fun little trinket to give away as a gift, attached to a tag, memordex card or mini recipe album! The possibilities are endless, and the best part is that you can customize it to fit your personal style and preference.

So why not get your creative juices flowing and make your own pie shaker element to not just celebrate International Pi Day, but stretch your current die stash and use your supplies in a new, unique and fun ways!?!

Happy crafting!
