ScrappyScrappy: [NEW VIDEOS] March Unity Stamp Blog Hop - Adella Girl #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #janedavenport #watercolor #mermaid #tonicstudios #nuvodrop #janedavenportwatercolor #adellagirl #card #cardmaking #youtube #quicktipvideo

For my first card, it's this beautiful mermaid "Adella Girl" by Angie Girl. I used my new Jane Davenport watercolors [Bright Palette] - the colors are very fun and BRIGHT! LOVE them. Plus, a little goes a long way. I also added some Nuvo drops to create the bubbles.

ScrappyScrappy: [NEW VIDEOS] March Unity Stamp Blog Hop - Drink Wine Feel Fine #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #card #cardmaking #youtube #quicktipvideo #distressoxide #timholtz #timholtzideaology #timholtzcollage #wallpaper #collagepapers #creativedevotion #gelcrayons #copicmarkers

For this card, I used the "Drink Wine Feel Fine" stamp with the cute wine bottle/glass. I colored it with copic markers and inked the "table" with some Distress Oxide inks. Then I wanted to create like a wallpaper background, so I used the new Tim Holtz idea-ology collage paper "Botanical". This comes in black/white so it's fun to color them it or just leave it be. I used the Creative Devotion crayons to color them in to get a soft look.

ScrappyScrappy: [NEW VIDEOS] March Unity Stamp Blog Hop - Daisy Girl #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #card #cardmaking #youtube #quicktipvideo #distressoxide #timholtz #timholtzstencil #stencil #washitape #spectrumnoir

And for my final card, I colored "Daisy Girl" with Spectrum Noir sparkle pens for the glitter. For my background, I used the new Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks [Tattered Rose / Squeezed Lemonade / Shaded Lilac]. The colors are so pretty! Then I sprayed some water over a Tim Holtz stencil to get the 'negative' look as the inks will react with water.

We have TWO amazing Unity filled prize packages to giveaway. Leave a comment on EACH blog in the hop for your chance to win. — PRIZE WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED MONDAY NIGHT ON THE UNITY BLOG —

ScrappyScrappy: [NEW VIDEO] Phyllis Harris & Unity Stamp - Today and Always #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #phyllisharris #card #cardmaking #papercraft #craft #crafting #youtube #quicktipvideo #copicmarkers #wowembossing #zingembossing #meltart #doglover

For my first card, I am using the stamp "Today and Always" which features this super cute dog! I LOVE IT! So I wanted to add lots of hearts onto this card and created this melt art hearts with embossing powder. YUPS! How cool right? I saw Marianne from WOW Embossing powder demo-ing this technique and just have to try it out for myself. I used Zing metallic embossing powders for this technique. Imagine the possibilities!

And now, a card for the cat lovers! This "Meow & Furever" kit is jsut PURR-fect don't you think? I wanted to create a fun background for this card so I just grabbed some cat-related washi tapes and wa-la! :) Quick and easy (and a great way to use up your washi stash).

ScrappyScrappy: [NEW VIDEO] Phyllis Harris & Unity Stamp - Happy Mind Happy Life #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #phyllisharris #card #cardmaking #papercraft #craft #crafting #youtube #quicktipvideo #copicmarkers #golden #glassbeadgel #watercolor #mixedmedia #gelmedium

Oh... When I saw this "Happy Mind Happy Life", it literally just blew my mind! Don't you think this is such an awesome stamp? So carefree, relaxed and just happy? So I wanted to create some clouds as if she is just swinging in the skies. I played with some Golden glass bead gels and this thing is just AWESOME if you feel/see it in real. It literally has actual glass beads in it! Once it was dried, I used some Golden watercolor to color so that it looked like clouds (or water, if you prefer). I think it turned out awesome!

ScrappyScrappy: [NEW VIDEO] Phyllis Harris & Unity Stamp - Angelic Wishes #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #phyllisharris #card #cardmaking #papercraft #craft #crafting #youtube #quicktipvideo #copicmarkers #timholtz #distressoxide #gesso #mixedmedia #timholtzstencil #clockworks #angelicwishes #tintedembossing

And for my final card, I used the "Angelic Wishes" stamp which is just so angelic! I wanted to create a dreamy effect so I mixed up some Tim Holtz distress oxide inks with..... (wait for it).... gesso! It creates this really nice soft tinted embossing paste - which I applied through a Tim Holtz stencil "Clockworks".

Hope you enjoyed these quick techniques and do try it out for yourself!

Have a fabulous weekend.

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.

ScrappyScrappy: Honeycomb Bee Card #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #stamp #stamping #papercraft #scrapbook #quicktipvideo #youtube #video #cuddlebug #tierrajackson #bee #honeycomb #sizzix #timholtzalterations #timholtzframework

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!

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.

ScrappyScrappy: Nuvo Glimmer Paste Ombre Background #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #stamp #stamping #papercraft #scrapbook #quicktipvideo #youtube #video #tdoneinlove #tonicstudios #nuvoglimmerpaste #glitterpaste #ombre

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!

ScrappyScrappy: [NEW VIDEO] February Unity Stamp Blog Hop #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #card #cardmaking #papercraft #craft #crafting #stamp #stamping #quicktipvideo #youtube #timholtz #distressoxide #texturedfades #vintagecar #prismacolor #emboss #allcylinders #happybirthday #birthdaycard

For my first card, I have a masculine-perfect-for-the-guys kinda card with this brand new stamp "All Cylinders" by Tierra Jackson. Seriously, how cool is this car? I colored it with my Prismacolor colored pencils then I wanted to add more of a "masculine" to it, so I grabbed a foil sheet and ran it through my Sizzix Big Shot with my Tim Holtz textured fades "Blueprint and Gears". It turned out so cool, don't you think? Then I inked all the edges up with Distress Oxide ink [iced spruce].

For my next card, I was SO excited to try this Tonic Studios Nuvo gilding flakes that I just got and it was messy but really fun to play with! You've got to watch the video to see how I made this foil border. Totally worth the time (and mess!). Psssttt, the squirrel is called "Nibbles". SO pretty right? :)

Next card is with this sad but cute owl "Owl So Sad", also by Tierra Jackson. I decided to make this a gloomy yet colorful card (if that made any sense at all! Haha!). So I painted my own watercolor galaxy, using my favorite watercolors - the Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors. I like how it turned out!

And finally, this sweet old couple. When I saw this stamp, I just had to turn it into a faux photo frame card. Just looks like a perfectly sweet photo right? So for those who love to try watercoloring but don't have watercolors, this would be awesome for you. I used Tim Holtz distress inks to color this ink and some Spectrum Noir sparkle pen to color in the frame I die cut using Fancy Scalloped Stitched Border Dies by Kat Scrappiness. I drew the heart using Tonic Studios Nuvo Jewel drop - which ironically turned out a little cracked! *oops* Guess it's true. Even through tough times, a true love story never ends. :)

ScrappyScrappy: [NEW VIDEO] My Little Lamb with Unity Stamp #scrappyscrappy #unitystampco #katscrappiness #copicmarkers #plaidpattern #littlelamb #stamp #stamping #craft #crafting #card #cardmaking #youtube #video #quicktipvideo

So I have stamped and colored this cute little lambie with Copic markers, then I am using the same markers and a Tim Holtz ruler to draw in the plaid patterns. Just google for plaid patterns for some inspirations on how you would like to draw your pattern. I just kinda eye-balled mine (Yups, it's not perfect but I'm ok with it) haha :)
