All That Scraps - LACE

Hello friends and happy Wednesday. It’s time for our weekly challenge at the All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge Blog. Today our challenge is to use "LACE" on your card/project. For my card today I used two images from the ATS store, C.C. Designs Sugarplums Limited Edition Kit Take A Seat and C.C. Designs Swiss Butterfly Nora Rubber Stamp. REMEMBER, the Sugarplums Limited Edition Kit Take a Seat is only available until September 20th. You don’t want to miss out on this adorable set. Let me know what you think about my card please.

The All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge Blog is also sponsoring this week's challenge over on the Flutterby Wednesday blog. Their challenge this week is a sketch by my sweet friend Mercy. Here is her sketch.

Be sure to head over to the ATS Wednesdays Challenge Blog to play along with us!  Every week there is a new and exciting prize being offered…but in order to be eligible to win, your card must include a stamp that is sold in the All That Scraps store. Whether it is one of our wonderful in-house designs or from the various other stamp companies that ATS carries, the choice is yours.

Thanks for stopping by again today. Goodbye my friends.

Mercy’s Tuesday Sketch Challenge - MTSC89

Hello friends and happy Tuesday. It’s time for Mercy’s Tuesday Sketch Challenge MTSC89.

I had an AWESOME stamping retreat this past weekend with two of my besties Mercy and Jess. I didn’t get nearly as much done as I wanted to but had LOADS of fun. We laugh so much when we get together. These girls are just good for my soul.

This is one of the cards I did get made this weekend. I used one of my FAV sets from MFT Stamps called Cool Yule. It was a new Christmas set last year and it totally won my heart when I saw what the AMAZING Amy Sheffer did with it. Here is my sample using some of the new Christmas Cosmo Cricket paper that I borrowed from Jess. Let me know what you think.

I wanted to show you a close up of the main image. I put some Liquid Appliqué on the hat, some Stickles on the ice cube and some Crystal Effects on the melted ice.

Make sure and upload your card to Mercy’s blog and when you upload to a public gallery please use the keyword MTSC89. Now check out what the rest of the Muses have for you to look at today using Mercy's wonderful sketch.

• Cindy Haffner

There She Goes BLOG HOP - 3rd Day

Hello friends and welcome to day three of our previews from There She Goes. You should be arriving here from my sweet friend Mercy's blog. If not then please head back to the TSG blog to get started. You don't want to miss anyone along the way.

A year ago TSG friend Teresa W. went to Jessica asking for a school themed set that was versatile enough that teachers could use it to make projects for their students instead of just the other way around. As soon as Jessica started working with Torico, she knew that she was just the artist to illustrate the perfect images for this set! BELIEVE IN YOU includes many adorable school themed images along with sentiments to create projects for your teacher as well as from :)

Believe In You is a 6x8 stamp set that includes a total of 37 of stamps and will sell for $24.

Would you like a chance to win the Believe In You stamp set? Here’s what you need to do: go to each of the Trendsetter’s Blogs and leave a comment on their Believe In You Blog Hop Challenge post. After you have finished checking out the eye candy and have left some love, return to the TSG Blog to add your name to the Mr. Linky at the bottom of this Blog Hop Challenge post. A winner will be chosen randomly using a random number generator to receive their very own Believe In You stamp set. The winner will be announced Saturday (the 28th) during the Release Party Chat.

Your next stop on the hop is the awesomely talented Sandra. Thanks for stopping by today and I'll see you back here tomorrow with our last day of previews. Goodbye friends.

Hugs,
