Merry Halloween? Well, it is here at Scrapping for Less!

And cannot wait to show you their creations! So hop on along with us and get inspired with all of the loveliness you are going to see along the way. But don’t delay in getting your kit cause I know this one is going to sell out in lightning speed!

Stacy (You are here)

This kit was so beautiful that it made it very easy for me to make gorgeous cards. I’m featuring the Banana Split level.

I have 4 cards for you today using each of the 4 sketches that you can download from the website. As always I always try to push as many cards out of this kit as I can. My record was 44 cards, well, I beat that record! I made 45 cards with this kit and literally have nothing but teeny tiny pieces left.

Here is my unboxing video for you:

Scrapping for Less is in love with Echo Park/Carta Bella

All of us here at Scrapping for Less absolutely love Echo Park Paper Co. They are one really diverse company and bring many, many patterns out each and every year. They have at least one release each month and could not be cuter! Cause who doesn’t love some absolutely cute pattern paper? So this month’s focus is this fabulous paper company and the Design Team has outdone theirselves with some great projects. You can read all about the interview I had with Madison Parker (the owner of Echo Park/Carta Bella) just in case you missed it.

Don’t forget to head back to the Scrapping for Less Blog to enter the Rafflecopter for a chance to win a 6x6 paper pad and matching embellishment. Thanks so much for joining us today!

Now onto the line up:

Stacy (that's me!)

I made a sign for my 9 year old daughter to hang in her room. I used some chipboard sheets I picked up at Hobby Lobby which I cut to 8" x 8". I then layered solid cardstock and pattern paper. I used the Let's Be Mermaids 6x6 paper pad on the sign layers and also on the die cut mermaid,

sea creatures, and the letters. Googly eyes and glitter enamel dots finished it off perfectly.

I think it turned out super cute and

I KNOW she's going to love it!
