For my first card, since Christmas it's almost here, this stamp set "A Time of Peace" by Tierra Jackson is just perfect for the holidays. I colored it with Copics and added some glitter to the star. Of coz I couldn't resist adding a burst of colors with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks on the Avery Elle oval burst die cut.

Next stamp, also by Tierra Jackson called "O Holy Blessed Night" is my absolute favorite of this week! There's just something so calming about this stamp and it reminds us why we celebrate Christmas - thank you Jesus! :)

So, I colored this whole piece with Copic markers and even added a hand-drawn stable. I added the starry night sky using Kuretake white brush pen.

Next up, is this cute "Special Delivery Mouse" stamp set by Lisa Glanz - he is just so cute! This stamp set is not only great for Christmas but for ALL occasions! I added lots of Trendy Twine (Peppermint Icicle Little Bits) and Unity Stamp Aurora Borealis sequins. The cute postage stitched die is from Kat Scrappiness.

Next up is another cute set by Lisa Glanz called "Oh Splendid Spring". I colored it with Copic markers, and wanted a fun background for both of them. I rainbow foiled my Thermoweb Decofoil Designer Clear Toner sheets and wa-la! It's just so pretty, don't you think?

Another cute stamp by Lisa Glanz is called "Wishing and Wishing". For this card, I kept it clean and simple by using only glitter and sequins to decorate the card. I already colored the mouse with Copic markers and using Nuvo Glitter drop (White blizzard) to not only add glitter to the card, but also using it as an adhesive for the Unity Stamp Cinderella sequins.

And finally, I created this easy Christmas gift tag using the beautiful poinsettias by Gracillie Design from the "Whatever Keeps You Warm" kit. I colored them with copic markers and adhered them to a Heidi Swapp gift tag. I also added Unity Stamp Aurora sequins.

So, now --- GO AND SHOP your heart out on Unity Stamp website HERE.

Hey scrappy friends! :)

Thank you so much for visiting my blog on todays 1st Celebration Blog hop for Kat Scrappiness. Today is so exciting! Not only will you be inspired by the designers' projects along this hop, there is a lot of fantastic prizes to be won! You should have arrived here from Mona's Blog. You will find the full link up list at the end of this post or on Kat Scrappiness Blog

We are so excited to announce the addition of our first ever exclusive clear stamp sets! One that is perfect for interactive papercraft designs and one that is an adorable Giraffe. You will also catch a glimpse of some brand new dies and sequin embellishment mixes that are also exclusives. Check out all of the exclusive products at Kat's store.

I made a simple shaker card using Lola the Giraffe and lots of fun elements from Kat's store, so here is the step-by-step on how I did it.

I first foiled the patterned paper from the FOILables - Toner Graphics with Thermoweb Decofoil (rainbow) using my Heidi Swapp Minc machine. It turned out so pretty, don't you think? 

Then it's time to create the window for my shaker card. I die cut the rectangle frame using Kat Scrappiness Double Stitched Rectangle die; which I then carefully cut into size. I also cut a piece of acetate the same size and adhered it to the frame. I then put a border of foam adhesive around the whole patterned paper -- thin enough to hide behind the frame.

Then here's the FUN part --- Fill it up with lots and lots of pretty Kat Scrappiness sequins! I am using Neon Barbie, Neon Summer and Sun-Kissed. I also adhered some sequins to the foiled patterned paper, so that even when you don't shake the card, pretty sequins will be "floating" :) Once you're satisfied filling up the sequins, adhere the frame/acetate to the foam border to seal it up.

Finally, all you need to do it to decorate the front of the card. I stamped Lola the Giraffe with Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink and colored her with my Copic markers, then fussy cut her and popped her up on the heart I die cut using Kat Scrappiness Double Stitched Heart die. I also die cut the "Hello" Brush Script word with some gold foam glitter. I wanted to add the "Let's hang out" sentiment, so I die cut a part of the Kat Scrappiness Sign Post die set then stamped the sentiment on it, which fit perfectly! I adhered everything down using Ranger Glossy Accents.

I hope you have been inspired by my card. In order for your change to win one of the brand new stamp sets or one of the three grand prizes, you must comment on all the designer's blogs and the Kat Scrappiness Blog. That is over 10 changes to win! Winners will be announced at 12 noon PST on 6/25/17. You have until 12:00 midnight PST Saturday 6/24/17 to enter!

Then I used the Ranger Dylusion ink sprays [Funky Fucsia / Fresh Lime / Lemon Zest / Vibrant Turquoise] to mist and splatter the background.  I also added some water to make it look more fluid :)

Then I die cut the "happy" word from Heidi Swapp in some gold foam glitter.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you do try out this quick tip for yourself :)

Happy May! 

Can you believe that almost half a year has just gone by? *phew*

I'm up on the SVG Attic blog and I'm here to share a baby mini album I made for my friend, Michelle, who is pregnant with twins. Yup, twins! :)

And with the album, I made this pretty box to gift it to her too.

I used the pie box from Holly's Holiday Gift Boxes. I love this box because you can see through it and it's a nice size for the album. 

To decorate the box, I took the pieces from the mobile centerpiece (Baby Boy & Baby Girl kit) and glittered them up before I strung them with some twine.

For the sides of the box, I used this cute critters washi tape :)

And here's the baby album I made -- which is 6"x6" in size.

I used lots of papers from Crate Paper, Kaisercraft, Pebbles, Elle's Studio, Simple Stories, Fancy Pants and Heidi Swapp.

Here's a sneak into the pages inside!

I also made a simple tag-card with some Sweet Stamp Shop boy/girl stamps :)

Thanks for stopping by :)

Have a wonderful week ahead.
