First up is a red rubber stamp called "Peony Hugs" by Graciellie Design. This stamp is huge and gorgeous!  I colored it with copic markers and inked up my background with distress oxide inks + a Tim Holtz stencil. I also added Nuvo glitter drops for the extra bling :)

***

The next rubber stamp is also by Graciellie Design called "Forest Butterfly". OH my gosh, this beauty is huge also! Of coz I had to color it with rainbow copic colors and clear glitter.  I also did a rainbow background with distress oxide inks and added white ink to my Unity "love confetti" stencil.

***

Now, unto the digital stamps. This is by Tierra Jackson and it's called "Good Ol Days". This classic bug is perfect for all car lovers. I inked up my MFT "Radiating rays" stencil with distress oxide inks. The stamp is so beautiful by itself, I feel I didn't need to do much with the card :)

***

And finally this cutie digital stamp also by Tierra Jackson is called "Cuddle Time". I had to add some cute clouds for the background sing Simon Says Stamp cloud stencils with distress oxide inks. I also added some sequins and stars to the clouds.

So, are you ready to shop all this cuteness? Go to Unity Stamp for all the deets!

I am starting off with this beautiful mermaid stamp called "Salina Girl". I used my Paper Fashion gouache watercolor to paint her in.  Gouache are like watercolor, but just more opaque. But if you wanted a loose watercolor feel I did, just add more water :) I also needed to add some shine to her hair so I used the Paper Fashion liquid metal and added some Nuvo glitter drops too.

The next girl is called "Rosa Girl" -  I love how sexy and beautiful she is! I colored her with copic markers and gave her a red hot dress :) I also grabbed some patterned papers from the "Autumn Dream" Unity Stamp paper pack and decorated it with some white paper flowers.

Are you a Cuddlebug fan? Well, here's a new one! If you wanted a giraffe, now is the time you get it :) It's back to basics for this card, I just did some really easy peezy watercolor painting with some Altenew watercolors. If I can do it, you can do it too :) I finished off the card by layering some patterned papers and tied it up with some Trendy Twine.

It is wedding season again, and this new set called "And all the things" is just perfect for all occasions! I wanted glam, glitz and all things glitter, so I made an all-gold card :) I painted the Mr & Mrs with gansai tambi starry colors and added Viva Decor glitter on the "&". I also added a dotted border with some Nuvo dream drops and finished it off by adding the Simon Says Stamp "love bouquet" die.

And for the final card for this post, I used the "A girl. A bunny" stamp set - which I am so obsessed with!! It is way way cute, don't you think? I wanted to create an easter egg wreath - so, I stamped out all the eggs, leave and sentiment on a white cardstock - then used Zig clean color markers to color all of them in. This would be great if you do not have any colored inks. All you need is just a black ink and some marker pens :)

I hope these cards inspire you. Do go shop at Unity Stamp because all of the new stamps (and stencils) are just way awesome :) Have a fabulous week ahead.

This weekend is the Lunar New Year, so wishing all of you who celebrates it a Happy Chinese New Year and 恭喜发财🍊

This week is also special because Unity Stamp have a special stamp set called "KOALA-TY Friends" and Unity will donate $5 of each sale of this kit to the wildfires in Australia. So, let us all help them together and pray that everything will be OK soon.

For my first card, I used the awesome stamp set "KOALA-TY friends". I absolutely love this set for all the cute graphics and beautiful sentiments. I wanted to create a fun background for the flying koala bear, so I grabbed my Simon Says Stamp "leafy frame" stencil and inked it up with lots of my favorite Tim Holtz distress oxide inks. Do watch the video to see how I get the different colors on my background. I also added some Nuvo dream drops on the leaves to look like water dew drops :)

For my next card, again I grabbed the "KOALA-TY friends" stamp set and stamped out a whole bunch of images from this set and fussy cut all of them. I also cut out two wreaths with white cardstock using MFT Stamps "Joyful wreath" die. I colored the wreaths with Altenew watercolors to match my Unity Stamp Graciellie Design "Pink & Blue watercolored" patterned paper. I did paint some gesso on the paper so that the focal point would be the cute koalas. The sentiment is from the "Cuddlebug Koala" set.

And finally, this cute koala from the "Cuddlebug Koala" set. I die cut the cardstock using Gina Marie's rectangle scallop die, then colored the entire image in using Copic markers. I wanted to add a rainbow behind the koala, so I decided to grab my Nuvo Jewel Drops and just had fun with it! SO EASY to make this card - easy peezy :)

I hope you will lend a hand and help Australia by getting some beautiful stamps this week. Thank YOU so much from the bottom of all our hearts.

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 :)

Hey scrappy friends. 

I am Guest Designing for Trendy Twine blog today and I have a cute Christmas card to share with you!

Today, the feature is this beautiful mixed colored twine: 

Berries Jubilee Trendy Bakers twine - Navy Blue and Red

For my card I am using the Simon Says Stamp Stamptember 2018 Mama Elephant set "Merry Mail".  I first inked up the skies with a cloud stencil with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks. I stamped and colored all the fun little bits with my colored pencils.

Since Santa is already in his cute little plane writing the word "Merry" in the sky, I thought it would be fun to do decorate the word with twine.  I used Thermoweb's mixed media adhesive (which dries clear) and traced along the lines of the word, then slowly twisting the twine and pressing it down along the way.

Finally, I added some pretty Unity Stamp sequins and nuvo glitter drops.

Here is the beautiful twine I used for today's card:

And for my final card, I used the cute gal and fox from the "Serenity is Peace" kit and created a wintery scene for my card with some Decoart metallic paints. LOVING how shiny these paints are and bonus: they dry fairly quickly too (for a thin layer)! I created the winter slopes with a border die and added Nuvo Glitter Drops "White Blizzard" for the extra bling.
