Starting off with a colorful thanksgiving card and a rainbow turkey. The new "Frondescence" background is so pretty, you could use it for many kinds of cards. I colored them up using Jane Davenport mermaid markers - I just love how vibrant the colors are. 

For the Cuddlebug Turkey, I colored it with copic markers and I just had to make him "fly". I die cut a slider slit using the Lawn Fawn "slide on over" die cut set and wa-la... he's flying!! :)

From thanksgiving, we go to  Christmas with this beautiful "All that sparkles" stamp. I colored her with copic markers, added some sparkle with Spectrum Noir pens. For the background, I used Newton's Nook Designs "argyle stencil" set with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks. They are just so perfect together! Oh, and I used a small makeup blending brush to get into the tight corners.

Do watch the videos to see how I made my cards and I hope you are inspired to make some too! 

Have a great weekend.

Hi scrappy friends. How are ya?

For my first card, I wanted to try something different so I combined a shadow box with a shaker card. I used Unity Stamp Entanglement border background stamp and colored it with - Jane Davenport watercolors. Then I adhered the Unity Stamp Little Boos cuties with some foam adhesive to pop them up! 

So, because I popped them up, this means my shaker window needs to be popped up too. I added 4 layers of foam adhesive to create the shadow box. I cut the silver glitter foam frame out using Kat Scrappiness nesting rectangle die and filled it up with Kat Scrappiness Boo Who sequins and Pretty Pink Posh beads.

I think this would be fun not just as a card, but also as a decor for your Halloween party :)

Next up is this cute Unity Stamp Lisa Glanz Salutation Toad kit. I wanted to give him a fun holographic background so I covered the Unity Stamp Brutus Monroe Heart Swirls with some WOW embossing silver glitter powder. To add more bling, I used my new Tonic Studios Nuvo Dream Drops and just created some random drops in the swirls.

And for my last card for the day, it's another cute one by Unity Stamp Lisa Glanz Snailed it. To create the fun background for the snails, I first inked up the background with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks. Then I added some Decofoil transfer gel using TCW stencils. Once the gel is dried, I ran some Decofoil flock transfer sheets through my Heidi Swapp mini minc machine. I also added some pebbles using the new Tonic Studios nuvo stone drops. They feel just like stone!

So I hope I "snailed it" today with the cards and you do too with the sales. Happy shopping! :)

Happy mid-week my scrappy friends!

Today is the new release of some Ann Butler background builder {strip kits}. These stamps are so much fun, it is so versatile - you got to have them in your collection.

For my first card, I wanted to use the Gina K Designs wreath builder template along with my stamping platform to build a wreath using the brand new Unity Stamp Ann Butler Background Builders {Strips-Set 1} & {Strips-Set 2}. With the template, it was so easy to create a unique-customized background. I just cut my cardstock into 4x4 and stamped random designs & colors using Memento dye inks. I also have a nifty trick on how you can add your sentiments without messing up.  I used the Unity Stamp Sept 2018 Sentiment kit "Everything comes full turn".

Just watch my video to see how easy it was!

For my next card, I wanted to create a quick card so I stamped the strips with some Tim Holtz distress oxide inks and used a stamping platform to help. If you don't have one, no worries! Stamping the usual way is also a-okay :)

For the sentiment I used the Unity Stamp May 2018 Sentiment kit "Say it Big" and inked it up with some embossing ink & WOW embossing Ultra high gold powders to create the dimension. Then I went crazy with Gansai tambi starry colors watercolors and a paint brush to create the splatters.

And for my last card, I wanted to create a fun plaid pattern. You can always google or pinterest for some color combinations or just stamp randomly to create your very own background. I used just one stamp from the Unity Stamp Ann Butler Background Builders {Strips-Set} and stamped free hand with some Memento dye inks. It's not perfect but hey, it's quick and fun :) 

For the sentiment, I used Unity Stamp Oct 2018 Sentiment kit "I am with you" and Versafine clair ink for that crisp stamping.

So, hope you are inspired by these cards today and go shop at Unity Stamp today :)

For my first card, these beautiful tulips are from the "Be Unstoppable" kit by Graciellie Design. I colored them using pigment powders from the Ken Oliver carribean brights color burst set. They are so pigmented, you only need a few sprinkles to color everything in. For the background, I used Ken Oliver liquid metals along with The Crafter's Workshop stencil "daisy cluster". They are so shiny!

For coffee/tea lovers, this stamp "Brew like a boss" by Graciellie Design would be perfect for you! I colored the stamp with my very vibrant Mermaid markers by Jane Davenport. For the background, I wanted to create a fun pattern so I used the Plaid stencil set by Newton Nook's Design, and inked it up with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks. Then of coz I had to add some bling to my card, so I grabbed my Gina K Glitz Glitter Gel in white. You HAVE to see it in real, it is so glittery!!!

And for my final card, this cute set is called "Take another shot" by Graciellie Design. I am absolutely  OBSESSED with this polaroid camera! I had to stamp the cute little Planner Gal: Stay Cozy by Unity Stamp on the polaroid. :)

So for this card, I created a DIY secret pocket in it, as you can see below, you can pull the polaroid in and out of the camera! I used Amy Tangerine Finders Keepers papers to create this fun card, watch the video to see how I created this :)

So, I hope you enjoyed all my cards and videos. Don't forget to shop at Unity Stamp !

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! :)
