Scrapping for Less FOTM - Oct 2017


Merry Halloween? Well, it is here at Scrapping for Less! Since our cards reveal is the last Saturday of the Month and then they take a bit of time to get them shipped out (although we have a brand-new system set up for this month).  Hopefully we will get them out in record time! With all that said our October card kit is our “Merry and Bright” Christmas kit…the Design Team oooed and ahhhed over the September kit….and this one is not any different, they are soooo excited and cannot wait to show you their creations! Hop on along with us and get inspired with all the loveliness you are going to see along the way. But don’t delay in getting your kit because this one is going to sell out in lightning speed! Head on over to the Flavor of the Month page and either sign up for a subscription or if you just want to try it out you can order a 1-time purchase. 
Now time for some projects!  






The above cards were created using the "Banana Split" option.  See below for the complete blog hop order and thank you for stopping by!

Scrapping For Less is in Love with Echo


All of us here at Scrapping for Less absolutely love Echo Park Paper Co. They are one diverse company and bring many, many patterns out each and every year. They have at least one release each month and they 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 themselves with some great projects. You can read all about the interview Teresa had with Madison Parker (the owner of Echo Park/Carta Bella) just in case you missed it.

Now on to my projects.  These may look like simple cards but they are in fact inspiration cards that can go on a rotating hanger sort of thing (see last picture).







Here is what I used:
Echo Park 6x6 paper pad "Once Upon a Time"
Echo Park frames & tags "Once Upon a Time"

Thank you for stopping by!  Here is the line up:

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!
