The fun is not over coz..

It's Cyber Monday and we have NEW stamps & SALES over at Unity Stamp!

Here are some cards I made with the NEW releases.

This bird is from the Lil Smartie Pants kit - created by Lisa Arana. He's just so cute right? :)

I even put glossy accent on his glasses *hehe*

Next I made this card with the Vintage Older than me Itty Bitty stamp by Joslyn. 

I used lots of distress inks to color the background, and I decorated the sides with some Viva Decor gold paper pen to create "spotlights" :)

Now, for the SALES!!

There will be TWO Unity Prize Packages given away by random selection from comments left on the design team member's blogs.  BE SURE TO VISIT each one and leave a little love.
— PRIZE WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED WEDNESDAY NIGHT —

Oh yes, Christmas is ALMOST here!!

I know it's about a month away, but we already have our Christmas tree up :)

And this year, it's all GOLD.

So to decorate our tree, I made some snowflake ornaments using the SDS Ornament kit.

Here's a close up!

I cut the snowflake using some gold foiled cardstock and further blinged it up with some rhinestones.

Can you spot the snowflakes? :)

Psssttt... 

SVG Attic is having a SALES now so do check it out and get your kits at awesome prices!!

Happy Wednesday!

I am up over at Trendy Twine's blog today and boy-oh-boy am I having fun with their twine.

Today I am highlighting the pretty Thanksgiving Orange Truffle Trendy Twine along with some additional twines.

So, how did I make the lollipops?

First, I punched out a circle (1 1/2") from a cardstock and applied some glossy accents on it. Then I started from the middle to adhere the twine on it in a circle. I finished it up with a bow using more twine. For the lollipop sticks, I used some toothpicks :)

Here are the supplies I used to make my card:

Thanksgiving Orange Truffle Trendy Twine - Orange & Brown

Strawberry Cupcake Trendy Twine - Pink, Light Pink & White

Twisted Blue Berry Trendy Twine - Lt Blue & Dk Blue

Grape Fizz Trendy Twine - Purple, Lavender & White

Thanks for stopping by!

It's HERE! It's HERE!

For the mosaic background, I cut up a piece of cardstock into 3 pieces and mask each layer off as I ink it up with a variety of Mama Elephant pigment inks.

Then I stamped the image from the "Old Traditions" kit onto some plain white cardstock and colored it in with my Copic markers.

For my next card, I took out some of my washi tapes (from my huge stash! oops) and made a simple washi xmas tree!

Then for the snowmen from the "Ginger Snap & Friends" kit, I stamped and colored it in with my Copic markers -- then popped them up with some foam tape.

For the background I added some Ice Stickles {diamond} for the extra shine!

In the recent Paris attacks, I felt so sad that many had lost their lives to this horrible incident.

Phyllis Harris image from the "Lil' Girl Prayin'" kit -- came in such timely fashion, which I feel this is a great reminder that God is love. 

Let's just take comfort in His arms and pray for the families of the all who were affected.

For this card, I used some Mama Elephant pigments inks to color up the image using a cotton bud!

How fun it is that you can get the bang for your buck, by using your inks not only to stamp -- but also to color :)

Here are some more Phyllis Harris stamps I used to make more cards 

(because I love her and her art a lot!)

Here's two beautiful girls & their teddy bear from the "A sky with no limit" kit. I colored them in with my Copic markers.

Next is this super sweet image of a girl with her puppy from the "Life is better" kit.  

Seriously... I need a puppy!!

I colored her in with some colored pencils and added some enamel dots.

***

And finally, let us share KINDNESS everywhere we go. This beautiful image is from the "Always from the Heart" kit. I colored the image in using my Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens for that watercolor effect.

It's Inspiration Time at The Cutting Cafe blog and this week, it's all about Gratitude.

There are many things I am thankful to God for ..

for good health

for family and friends

for love, joy and peace.

There are also many people who I want to say THANKS to, and this "With Gratitude" printable stamp set is just perfect for those thank you cards! 

I printed the background words and the stripes for my card base, then printed the circle sentiment and die cut it. Added a BIG bow and some enamel dots using Viva Decor paper pen, and it's done!

Do stop by the blog for more inspiration this week.

Happy Monday :)

I am up over at the SVG Attic blog and would love to share with you what I made!

Since Christmas is just around the corner .. I am making some Christmas box envelopes to go along with the Christmas cards I made.

So, to make the box much prettier, I added this poinsettia 3D flower from the Winter Wishes kit to close the envelope up!

Here are some close ups!

I curled some of the layers up to give it a little bit more dimension and I added a red bling gem to the center for that extra shine :)

Do check out the other Christmas kits that SVG Attic has HERE.

WOO HOO! 

It's Blog Hop time with the Unity Stamp DT chicks and I have NEW VIDEOS for you.

I love this oil pastels because a little goes a long way and because it is water-soluble, you can create a watercolor look easily!

My next card also uses the Prima oil pastels, but with a gesso background -- so that the colors can blend easily and smoothly to create an easy rainbow background.

Just add a few bling to glitter the card up :)

And my final card, I colored this beautiful fairy in with my watercolor pencils.

If you love more control or you're still new to this whole watercolor thing --- watercolor pencils would be better than actual watercolor paints.

Hope this has been helpful to you who are interested in watercolors! :)
