For my first card, I wanted to try something different so I combined a shadow box with a shaker card. I used Unity Stamp Entanglement border background stamp and colored it with - Jane Davenport watercolors. Then I adhered the Unity Stamp Little Boos cuties with some foam adhesive to pop them up! 

So, because I popped them up, this means my shaker window needs to be popped up too. I added 4 layers of foam adhesive to create the shadow box. I cut the silver glitter foam frame out using Kat Scrappiness nesting rectangle die and filled it up with Kat Scrappiness Boo Who sequins and Pretty Pink Posh beads.

I think this would be fun not just as a card, but also as a decor for your Halloween party :)

Next up is this cute Unity Stamp Lisa Glanz Salutation Toad kit. I wanted to give him a fun holographic background so I covered the Unity Stamp Brutus Monroe Heart Swirls with some WOW embossing silver glitter powder. To add more bling, I used my new Tonic Studios Nuvo Dream Drops and just created some random drops in the swirls.

And for my last card for the day, it's another cute one by Unity Stamp Lisa Glanz Snailed it. To create the fun background for the snails, I first inked up the background with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks. Then I added some Decofoil transfer gel using TCW stencils. Once the gel is dried, I ran some Decofoil flock transfer sheets through my Heidi Swapp mini minc machine. I also added some pebbles using the new Tonic Studios nuvo stone drops. They feel just like stone!

So I hope I "snailed it" today with the cards and you do too with the sales. Happy shopping! :)

Happy mid-week my scrappy friends!

Today is the new release of some Ann Butler background builder {strip kits}. These stamps are so much fun, it is so versatile - you got to have them in your collection.

For my first card, I wanted to use the Gina K Designs wreath builder template along with my stamping platform to build a wreath using the brand new Unity Stamp Ann Butler Background Builders {Strips-Set 1} & {Strips-Set 2}. With the template, it was so easy to create a unique-customized background. I just cut my cardstock into 4x4 and stamped random designs & colors using Memento dye inks. I also have a nifty trick on how you can add your sentiments without messing up.  I used the Unity Stamp Sept 2018 Sentiment kit "Everything comes full turn".

Just watch my video to see how easy it was!

For my next card, I wanted to create a quick card so I stamped the strips with some Tim Holtz distress oxide inks and used a stamping platform to help. If you don't have one, no worries! Stamping the usual way is also a-okay :)

For the sentiment I used the Unity Stamp May 2018 Sentiment kit "Say it Big" and inked it up with some embossing ink & WOW embossing Ultra high gold powders to create the dimension. Then I went crazy with Gansai tambi starry colors watercolors and a paint brush to create the splatters.

And for my last card, I wanted to create a fun plaid pattern. You can always google or pinterest for some color combinations or just stamp randomly to create your very own background. I used just one stamp from the Unity Stamp Ann Butler Background Builders {Strips-Set} and stamped free hand with some Memento dye inks. It's not perfect but hey, it's quick and fun :) 

For the sentiment, I used Unity Stamp Oct 2018 Sentiment kit "I am with you" and Versafine clair ink for that crisp stamping.

So, hope you are inspired by these cards today and go shop at Unity Stamp today :)
