Happy May!

The past few months had been crazy to say the least. With lockdowns, quarantines, social distancing -  it is all our new "normal". The current state of the world really changed the way we do things everyday, but hey - let's just stay positive, keep calm and craft on! :) I hope you are safe and healthy too.

Unity Stamp has a BIG red rubber release today because it is their BIRTHDAY ! 

Happy birthday Unity Stamp! 

I have made a few cards with it the new releases but .. 

Unfortunately, I do not have the step-by-step videos this time, but do feel free to watch my previous videos on my Youtube channel (TheScrappyScrappy) and if you like, do click SUBSCRIBE.

I am also on Instagram @scrappyscrappy_ - come say hello :)

So, if you're just into sentiments - this new kit called "Having Hope" is perfect for you. I paired the sentiment with the Unity Thermoweb toner card front "Heart Trees" - which I have watercolored it first then foiled it with some gold DecoFoil.

***

Next card, again using the same sentiment kit - I embossed the background with "Get lost in the stars" stamp set with Brutus Monroe gilded sparkle embossing powder. Then I inked it up with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks and splattered some white ink to create stars.

***

Next up are TWO brand new stamp sets called "A Faithful Letter {scripty background}" and "One of those people". I absolutely loved how these two sets can compliment one another. I kept the background plain (just black and white) because I wanted the flowers to pop! I colored the flowers with copic markers and tried mixing colors together to get the extra pop.

***

And finally, "Possible Not Easy" is this cute stamp with flowers and a frame. I added some Unity Stamp papers in the background and also some Glitterific paint for that extra bling.

Hope you are inspired and if you're interested to get any of these stamps, just head on over to Unity Stamp  and shop your heart out. 

Happy weekend! :)

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!

First stamp is "Time to be Grateful". This stamp is just so cute! LOVE the girl - she's so cute, don't you think? I colored her with Copic markers and added some shine with Spectrum Noir sparkle brush markers. For the pink hearts, I used distress oxide inks with Unity's "Love Confetti" stencil. 

Yes, let us remind ourselves to be grateful and count our blessings today. Treasure this time to rest and spend time with your family. :)

***

Next up is "Quarantine Dream". This stamp is SO CUTE, I kinda wished they had a version with dogs. Nonetheless, this is super cute and YESSSS, this is indeed a stamp perfect for all the pet owners out there. I am certain our pets (or fur kids) are so happy at this time because they are with us every single day. 

I colored the stamp with copic markers and added some Nuvo jewel drops. For the background, I used Unity + Deco Foil toner card front  "Floral background" with some distress oxide inks to create a rainbow background.

***

Next up is "There will be Sunshine". YESSSS. Don't lose faith. Don't give up. Today may be tough, but there will be sunshine (and a rainbow too!). I colored this up with copic markers but added some glittery shine to their dresses with sakura jelly roll moonlight pens. These markers are just amazing! 

***

And finally, "Faith not fear" is just perfect for this season. Let us encourage one another at this difficult time and let us continue to hold on to our faiths and that things will be better soon.

I colored her with my Tombow markers and added some Nuvo drops for the dimension. For the background I used a WRMK embossing folder to create the diamond effect.

So, whilst we can stay at home, let us forget about our worries and color away! :)

Stay healthy, safe and happy.

Happy weekend.

The first one is the "Basic Postcard template" digital stamp. This is so fun! You can basically create any kind of postcard with all the stamps you already have. I used the border backgrounds and the Nov 2019 sentiment kit "His Words" and colored it in using the Altenew watercolors. Great way to send someone a little cheer during this time.

***

Next is the "Pray More" digital stamp. What's fun about digital stamps is, you can flip them - resize them - do whatever you want with them! So I made two cards here to show you the fun ways you can use your digital stamps. I just did some Copic markers coloring and distress oxide ink blending - and bam! Two quick cards done :)

Here's the close up for the cards

***

And we also have the "In this Together" digital stamp. I love the flower and the sentiments in this kit. We will definitely get through this together - me and you - the whole world. Let's us hold on to God, hope and faith --- and soon, everything will be ok.

I also made two cards to show you how you use your digital stamps - however you like! I just printed them on white cardstock and went to town with it with Jane Davenport mermaid markers and flickered some Gansai Tambi starry colors gold watercolor on it. Easy peezy! :)

Here's a close up of the cards

It is baby season, so this new stamp called "Here at Last" is just perfect for the precious bundle. You can color it any color you want, so it is perfect for both boys and girls. I made mine all pinky pink with some fun flamingo patterned paper - which I die cut using the Avery Elle oval burst die. For the baby's blankie, I added some pink Thermoweb flock transfer sheet using just glue. YUPS. No fancy tools needed! Then I finished it with some pink Nuvo glitter drops.

For the next card, I used Unity Stamp-Lisa Glanz "Bunnies in Balloon" set. So adorable, don't you think? I did some simple Copic markers coloring and did the fun clouds with Nuvo drops and.... a secret tool. Do watch the video to find out what :)

I also added some Unity Stamp Cinderella sequins to bling the whole card up, coz why not? 

***

Now, for the next two cards - I am using the brand new Scene Stamps. These are SO MUCH fun! You can practically use it for any occasion. This beautiful set is called "Set the Bar". I have the sexy "Marlow fashionista" in my stash for the longest time, and I knew she's just perfect for this scene :)I used copic markers to color everything up. I also gave her a sparkly red dress and gold sparkly eyeshadow.

***

For the next Scene Stamps, I used the "Outside your window" kit and this one is again just simply so beautiful. I paired it with Brandi Girl and colored it with my Prismacolor colored pencils. Are you obsessed just like me? These Scene Stamps are just perfect to fill up your entire card - easily and so beautifully.

So, don't forget to go shop at Unity Stamp and I hope all of you stay safe and healthy.
