So, because it is June, it is time for a BRAND NEW Sentiment kit. *woot woot*!

June 2019 Sentiment Kit "Bird's the Word" is just too cute, love the birdie! I colored it with Copic markers and also added some clear Wink of Stella glitter. Then it's time to create the background with some thin washi tapes. You can use any tapes you have - just have fun and go to the park with them!

Next is this cute Unity Stamp Tierra Jackson "Little Bubbles". I just got my - Thermoweb decofoil flock transfer sheets in the mail (I purchased them from Unity Stamp HERE), so of coz I had to try them out. I didn't use any fancy tools or machine here, just some good ol' - Thermoweb XL adhesive tape. I did some wavy strips and just added the flock to it, pressing it down using a brayer. OH MY.. seriously. The flock is so fuzzy, you got to go try them! I also added some Unity Stamp sequins "Aurora Borealis" coz they looked like bubbles too.

Next up is the new Unity Stamp "Roger Guy". I wanted to make a masculine card for this, coz he is so manly! (if that makes sense, haha!). So I grabbed my black - Thermoweb decofoil flock transfer sheet and ran it through my Sizzix Big Shot with my - Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations "Cracked" embossing folder. The effect came out so cool! If you wanted a subtle look, you can leave it as it is. I wanted the cracked effect to show up more, so I dabbed some Versamagic "aloe vera" chalk ink on the embossed surface.

I also wanted to add an image to his t-shirt, so I grabbed the ship from the Unity Stamp "Other side of fear", masked it with some Thermoweb purple tape and it was so easy to stamp!

Recently, Unity Stamp has been coming out with such fun border backgrounds. This new one, called Citrus Medley is just another fun and fresh stamp. I first created the alcohol ink background using some Copic marker refills and Ranger alcohol blending solution, along with my Simon Says Stamp yupo paper. YUPS, you can use your refills! Once the background is done (and dried), I stamped the border background and also added the "Thank You" sentiment from the Unity Stamp Dec 2018 Sentiment kit "Special wishes" using some gold embossing powder on some vellum.

Here's another new border background stamp called "Hot Mess". This is a perfect stamp for the coffee and tea lovers! I colored the stamp with some Copic markers. Then, to create 2 cards with just 1 stamp, I simply sliced the piece into two at a diagonal angle! :) I added some patterned paper and thin washi tape. The sentiments are from the Unity Stamp "Sweet, Warm, Whipped" set.

So, what are you waiting for? It's time to SHOP shop SHOP! :)

For my first card, I am using the new "Crafty Little Elf". She is so darn cute, don't you think? I made her table bigger by just drawing a longer line. Then I added more accessories for her using the "Planner Gal" kit. Then I colored with Copics and fussy cut her because I wanted the background to show.

I ran some gold foil through my Big Shot using the Sizzix Tim Holtz embossing folder "December Calendar & Holiday Words". I absolutely loved how it turned out! Finally, I added the sentiment from the KOM 10/16.

My next card, I stamped the "Butterfly Embellies", colored them with my Spectrum Noir metallic pens and fussy cut them out.

Now, it's time for the fun rainbow background! I've seen so many paint smear/smoosh/spread/schmear videos on Instagram that I had to try it out for myself! I used Tim Holtz Distress paints [Broken China/Twisted Citron/Mustard Seed/Spiced Marmalade/Picked Raspberry] and added some Tim Holtz distress stickles glitter [Clear Rock Candy], then just spread it out like buttercream on a cake! :) Once the paint is dry, just pop the butterflies with some glue pop dots.

I only have two cards for today, but hey, I hope you're inspired to create some cards on your own!

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!

For my first card, I am using the BRAND NEW Planner Gal: Be a Beauty -- which is SO SO Pretty, don't you think? I stamped then colored her with my Prima watercolors [Pastel Dream]. I decided to do some partial embossing using my Tim Holtz Sizzix embossing folder [Texture Fades] and then colored it using my pretty Nuvo Mousse [Peony Pink, Aquamarine and Indian Gold] by just using my fingers. It is so metallic and shiny in real life!

For my next card, I used the NEW Planner Gal : Don't be Perfect stamp, and stamped her onto some Bazill kraft cardstock. Don't you think she is so cute?

 Then I decided to use my Kuretake Gansai Tambi [starry colors] watercolor and just paint the entire card in GOLD! Coz seriously, who doesn't like Gold? :) 

These watercolors are just pure heaven! SO SO shiny and metallic.

Psssttt, did you know that all the sentiment kits are on sale this weekend?

Here's a card I made using the brand NEW July 2017 Sentiment Kit: Hugs, Kisses & Birthday Wishes -- just check out how cute the owl is with all the balloons!

I colored him in using my Copic markers, then I decided to add some glitter to the balloons using Tim Holtz distress stickles dry glitter [Clear Rock Candy]. This glitter is just AMAZING!!! It is so glittery, and looks like sugar frosting on a cupcake. I used the Thermoweb iCraft mixed media adhesive to apply the glitter onto my card.

And for my final card, I used the NEW Planner Gal: Love Them stamp and colored her in with Copic markers. For the background, I was totally inspired by all the bible journaling ladies out there -- I had to try it out for myself too! I used an old gift card (you can use a credit card, a membership card... any card!) with some Tim Holtz distress paints [Wild honey, Spun Sugar, Mustard Seed, Cracked Pistachio]. I just scraped the paints onto my card and wa-la!! :)

So, here are some details on the SALE and NEW stamps at Unity Stamp

Have an awesome weekend! :)
