Happy 1st Blogaversary M.A.G. - A Blog Hop Celebration

For the CWC - Adopt a Pet Blog Hop click HERE.

Welcome My Friends,

To my blog Scrapper in the Making. If you've just come over from MAG Challenge by the Page, then you're off on the right start. Today we are Celebrating MAG's 1st Blog-Aversary. They are 1yr older today. I'm so glad that I was able to join these fabulous ladies (Melissa, Adrian, Gloria) for this wonderful occasion. They are all soooo talented, very sweet and I'm honored to have been chosen to be on their Design Team for a 2nd term. I'm the first on the Blog Hop so make sure you go through the rest of the list as there will be lots of Blog Candy along the way. For my tribute to this special moment, I created the project below.

Everyone loves a good cupcake and having the single candle on it, I thought it would be perfect to commemorate their 1yr Blogaversary Journey together. If you've never heard of MAG Challenges then where have YOU Been?! This is a Funtastic Blog that pushes your creativity. There are New challenges each Friday of the week. Check out the link after you've gone through the hop and be sure to join us on these Fun Friday Creative Challenges. It's truly like no other challenges out there. What's a Blogaversary Hop without Blog Candy... for your creativity, I'll be giving away a Deja Views "Sports" stickers and this Inkadinkado Stamp Set called "Doodle Holidays".

This will hopefully give you a head start on your Christmas projects and some added fun to the Sports season. You must leave a comment here with a way for me to contact you, but make sure to wish MAG a Happy Blogaversary over on their blog. I will post the winner Wednesday AM.
Your next top is the wonderfully talented Gloria at Girlia's Cards. Check her out to see what goodies she has for you.

Great NEWS!!! - I'm a DT "Cooking With Cricut" Chef Member

Hi Friends...
I'm still out of town, hopefully my Blog Genie aka "Be-Gee" is doing okay thus far in keeping you updated. It's only her 2nd day. I'm sure you'll let me know if she isn't. (lol) Now on to some Bigger, Better & Greater NEWS!!
It's Official, I made the "Cooking with Cricut" Design Team. Woo Hoo!!! I'm A Chef... Chef Feli'.**sn: I like the sound of that, I may be using that elsewhere too**(lol) Well not the cooking kind (though I can throw down in the kitchen), but the crafting kind. I'm so honored to be working with such a talented group of crafters. I hope my projects can measure up to everyone's. Anyhew I'm glad you are here and I hope you stick around as I craft my way through this wonderful journey. Today's Challenge over at Cooking with Cricut (CWC) is: "Cake, Cupcake and/or Teddy Bear". I decided to make a Cupcake for this challenge. Who doesn't love a good cupcake; no matter what the occasion. Anyhew, I used the Wild Card Cricut Cartridge for this one. Since it's now Autumn season (my favorite season) and I love all the Fall colors I decided to combine my love for both.

Head on over to Cooking with Cricut and Join in on the Fun with Us, Get some Inspiration and check out the other New Chefs on the Team.

"WE ARE STRONG"

Hello My Dear Friends,
In remembrance of what this significant day Is and Means to Us, I have made this card as a tribute.

This is also being entered into the Cricut Cardz Challenge - "Card Crazy" (use the card feature from any cartridge). I used "Wild Card" for my cartridge choice. It took out the guess work. Plus I thought it was perfect for the day like today. Enjoy! Smooches...

Throwback Thursday - Wild Card or Just Because Cartridge

Hi Everyone,
 It's another wonderful time over at Emma's - My Creative Time. Her Throwback Thursday Challenge is here again and just in time for her next release. Woo Hoo, You ROCK Emma! Here is the skinny on the details:

***Use either "Wild Card" OR "Just Because" cartridges! & PLEASE incorporate some EMBOSSING somewhere on any project of your choice! You can dry or heat emboss, whichever you prefer!  

IF YOU DO NOT OWN ANY OF THESE CARTRIDGES, USE ANY "OLDER" CARTRIDGE YOU OWN!

As much as I love this cart, I don't use it often enough. So I dusted it off and pulled out my "Wild Card" cartridge to showcase how wonderful and useful this cart is. Hope you like what I came up with. I hope this made it in time. If not, I wanted to share my "Wild Card" card anyway. Her next 8th release will be announced soon. I Can't Wait!

O-M-GEE, I couldn't wait to get my hands on Emma's stamps and try them out on this project. I was like a kid in a candy store when they arrived in the mail. This card is a tribute to Mrs. Emma and the wonderful job she continues to do with ALL of her Stamp Releases. KUDOS!!! I always look forward to what you'll come up with next. Smooches...
