August Flavor of the Month "Bubbles Galore"



Bubbles! Who doesn't love playing with bubbles? Some may think they are for children put take out a bottle of bubbles and just see how many people would love to chase one down or wait for it to land on your finger so you can pop it! This month's kit is all about bubbles of all kinds...so grab a bottle of bubbles or go soak in a bubble bath and hop along as you see what the Design Team and guest designer have to share! You can find this month's kits under the Card Kits tab on the home page of the website. Make sure you also enter our Rafflecopter for a chance towin a prize.




Earlier this month my grandson celebrated his 10th birthday. We had a wonderful little family pool party but wanted to give him a themed party still, so we pulled the inspirations from this month's card kit and put on a totally fantastic bubble party!  Including floating rubber duckies in the pool!

 Good morning, I am back with the Collected Crafty Collab with a great little Summer Vacation card duo...Let's Get on a Picnic this summer with the cute picnic ephemera and paper. These would be great cards to send to someone as an invitation to go on a wonderful picnic. (although, hopefully your weather is a little cooler than mine! haha)

It's A Mermazing Monday #mermazingmonday



Hi, Welcome to my blog today. If you didn't see the past few days blog posts go check them out. I organized a hashtag "Under the Sea" hop. I had so much fun that I decided I wanted to continue. 

So, if you decide you want to dive in...and join just use the hashtag #mermazingmonday on your post whether it be Instagram, Youtube, or a blog. 

Most of all have fun! 


So, this was a very busy day for me...I did not get in my craft room to craft until 9pm tonight! Yikes... so unlike me. Anyhow, I am not making as fast a progress on the banner as I wanted to. It will be finished by next Monday and I will show it in full detail.

Here is the next panel.



Supplies Used:

Authentique: Sea Maiden 6x6 Paper Pad
Copic Markers
Some Random Die Cuts that were in my stash.
Lawn Fawn Stitched Party Banner Dies


Under the Sea Hashtag Hop #Saturdayunderthesea



Hello my crafty friends. I am back for Day 3 of the Under the Sea hop. I have had such a blast the past 3 days making my mermaid panels for the hop. I did not even begin to touch all of my beautiful mermaids. So, since I have not I decided while lying in bed last night (trying to go to sleep...that is when these bright ideas hit me!) to do Mermazing Mondays on my blog for the month of August. Yes each Monday I will have a blog post showcasing something "Mermazing". If you would like to join in, leave a comment below or email me @ teresa@scrappingforless.com, I will create a graphic and we can use the hashtag #MermazingMondaysinAugust. 

Ok onto my two panels for today...Final Reveal of the Banner will be the post on Monday so you will need to come back to see it completed then!

Build Your Holiday Stash Day 3 (a couple days late)



I decided to use some SFL paper and Pebbles stickers to create some quick simple cards.

I used the following MOJO Monday sketch for these 3 cards.

Under the Sea Hashtag Hop #thursdayunderthesea



I am in a Facebook group where everyone is so friendly  and come together for all sorts of things. Everyone is accepted regardless of their status of stamping  or crafting...whether a seasoned crafty,  or a beginner just starting out.  So come check us out and join in on the fun. 

One of the things we do in this group is have crafting hops.  I proposed several weeks ago an Under the Sea hop...why? Because I am obsessed with mermaids! 

I have been wanting for a long time to redecorate my craft room into a mermaid theme. Well  I do have a few mermaid decorations here and there but this hop gave me the perfect opportunity to showcase all my mermaid stamps and create a  banner to  go across  my crown of my Scrapbox. 

Today, I have created one of the panels...join me tomorrow and Saturday to see each panel. Also Saturday I will show the whole banner put together. 

Thanks for taking the time to join us and don't forget to  use the hashtag   #Thursdayunderthesea  to find all of the goodness that is out there on blogs, instagram, Facebook, and YouTube for the next 3 days.


Supplies Used:

Lawn Fawn Stitched Party Banner
Whimsy  Stamps:  Mermaid Shelley Cling Rubber Stamp
Authentique Paper: Sea Maiden
Various Stickers and Die Cuts from my stash

Thanks so much for stopping by!
