For my first card, I wanted to create a rustic but colorful Christmas card using the wreath from Warmth of Christmas kit by Graciellie Designs. I colored it with Prismacolor colored pencils then tied it with some Trendy Twine "Peppermint Icicle" little bits.

For the background, I used Sweadda Weadda by Brutus Monroe, embossed it with some white embossing powder then spritzed it with some Ranger Dylusion ink sprays.

For my next holiday card, I wanted to create a really sparkly glittery card using the Holiday Hello by Tierra Jackson. So I cut out the stamp using a snowglobe die - if you don't have one, don't worry! Just use a circle die and cut off the ends OR cover it with some Prima snowflake paste, that looks like glittery snow when it is dried. I also used some Simon Says Stamp glitter cardstock and also added lots of pretty Cinderella Unity sequins.

For my final card, I wanted to create a fun background for the beautiful sentiment from the Joyous Comfort kit by Ann Butler. So I spritzed lots of Nuvo shimmer powders onto some watercolor cardstock, then added a subtle pattern with my Tim Holtz stencil using some Gina K glitz glitter gel. If you wanted a more "popping" design, you could always use a brighter color :)

Have a happy World Card Making Day (or week) and happy shopping :)

This brand new "Gardenia Floral Border" kit by Graciellie is just perfect for Bible journaling. I stamped it on some vellum, then colored/blended it using my Tombow markers. What I love bout these markers are the colors are very vibrant, although they are water-based markers. Psssttt, these stamps would be great for home decors, cards, scrapbooking ... The possibilities are endless!

Oh oh! If you love the Cuddlebug series by Tierra Jackson, she has some new ones this week! Here is the Cuddlebug Caterpillar, which kinda reminded me of the caterpillar form Alice in Wonderland. So... I doodled in the mushroom beneath him (Yups, I drew that and you can too!) and watercolored it in.

And here's another cute one by Tierra Jackson, the Cuddlebug Bee. I created some honeycomb for him using the Tim Holtz Sizzix alterations framework. LOVE this die! I die cut the different inserts from patterned paper and holographic cardstock but you can even use this die to cut even glass sheets!

Need a quick card? I created this with the "Happy Moments" kit by Graciellie and some new colors of Dylusions Ink Sprays.  Just a few spritzes and done! :) I also added some gold metallic shimmer with Spectrum Noir sparkle pen.

And since Easter is coming soon, here's a cute bunny set called "Good Days" by Tierra Jackson with cute chickies! :) I know how intimidating CAS cards are because of all the white space, so I just added some sequins for the border to give it some color.  Worried on coordinating the colors of your sequins? Just get the ready-mixed packs offered by many companies out there now. Easy peezy! I am using the Easter Egg Hunt sequin mix by Kat Scrappiness.

And I did mention a FREEBIE right? Here's the beautiful stamp called "Done in Love". It's so pretty!

I did an ombre glitter background using the Nuvo Glimmer Paste. It's like butter, just spread it on and let it dry. PSsttttt, it dries really quick too! No need to wait for hours, just a few minutes! Then I created a frame using the Never Ending Rectangle die by Kat Scrappiness from white cardstock using nesting dies so that it will not cover up all the glitter beauty :)

Hope you enjoyed all the videos and do show me what you made over at the Facebook Unity {show & tell} group. For all the new stamps, you can shop HERE.

Have a fabulous weekend!

I have stamped the Planted kit onto some cardsstock then colored the image in using my Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real brush pens. For the diluted watercolor look, just spritz some water and dip your marker slightly into the water to paint. So far, I had no problems with this so --- guess it should be ok? :) I've also stamped the sentiment on some vellum to get the subtle see through effect.

For my next card, it's this cute owl!

Although I don't celebrate Halloween, this cute owl from the Happy Owl'oween kit is too cute to be missed. I colored him in using my Copic markers then created a circle see through card using my Kaisercraft nested circle dies -- which I had distressed with Tim Holtz distress ink {mustard seed}. Then I added a piece of acetate for the see through portion. I also painted some stars using the Zig Clean color pens.

Since Christmas is just a few months away, it's never too early to start making holiday cards!

I have stamped and colored the Love Bug Christmas with my Copics. Then I wanted to make my own Christmas wreath. So I took the Die-namites Summer Branch die and cut it into smaller pieces to form my wreath. :)

***

The next card, all coffee (or tea) lovers will love this stamp!

I first created the coffee stains and splatters with some Dylusions ink spray. Didn't want to use real coffee so ants wouldn't come near it! hahaha :)

I colored the One Little Latte coffee mug with my Copic and then added some Freckled Fawn enamel dots.

***

Next up, is a pet lovers FAVORITE I am sure!!

The Purrty Wonderful & Bones About It stamp kits is a MUST have because it is sooooo cute! I added spots and stripes for my puppy and kitty. I also stamped the sentiments and cut them out into bubble shapes. Did you notice my cute borders? :) The dog/fish bones are also from the same kit. Then I created the rainbow background using Prima Oil pastels.

***

And for my final card, it's Mermaid time!

This mermaid from the Spirit of a Mermaid kit is just so beautiful! I have colored her with my Colleen colored pencils and then created the glitter waves using Tim Holtz distress glitters {peacock feathers, broken china}. I have also inked the sentiment up with Distress ink {broken china}.

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 :)

Hello! :)

Today I am posting on the Unity Stamp blog, sharing my art journal with lots of inks, stamps, stencils and more.

At times, my mind would go blank on what to create and I find that art journals help in just testing out techniques or just going wild and just have FUN!

I first sprayed the background with lots of Dylusions ink sprays then used some TCW stencils on it.

Then I went into happy stamping mode with Unity's SMAK kit "Happy little moments" 07/15 using some Prima chalk edgers ink.

I just love the designs and sentiments from this set!

Have a wonderful weekend ahead and scrappy on! :)

It's my niece's birthday today so besides birthday gifts, I made her a coloring book!

Since coloring book is popular with kids (and adults too), I got my Unity Stamps out and started stamping away!

For the front cover, I stamped some Sweet Stamp Shop stamps out and inked up my Dylusions border stamp. I used the 3GirlJam crinkled ribbon to tie it all up together!

Here's a peek of the insides!! 

If you're interested to see a flip-through, check out my Instragam @scrappyscrappy_

Hope she enjoys coloring it as much as I did making it :)

Here's my first card using the Faux Stained Glass technique.

The Tim Holtz distress marker spritzer with distress markers was quite fun to play with!! Don't you think the spritzed effect is so unique? :)

Next up -- a white Christmas card ;)

I have wanted to try this technique for the longest time -- and finally, I did!! 

Can you imagine all the shiny cards you can make? :)

Finally, a card which I'm inspired by the Unity {be inspired} challenge.

I did some glitter embossing and used the card/color sketch for this card.

Here's the sketch. Be sure to join in the fun coz the PRIZES are HUGE!!
