Unity Stamp Company Friends With Flair

Today I have two bright and summery cards to share. Both of them use stamps from some of Unity's fabulous Kits of the Month. I used this month's Kit of the Month Sketch so that I can enter these in the challenge.

On the first card I used the flowers from the October 2009 KOM and the cute bumble bee from the December 2010 kit. I usually color my images with Copic markers, but this time I used my Prismacolor Watercolor pencils and a blender pen. I had forgotten how fun it is to do that technique.



On the second card I used the sun stamp from the July 2009 KOM and the sentiment from the October 2010 KOM. It is fun to go back through your stamps and see what ones will work well together, it really expands your options.



Hope you enjoyed your visit today. Don't forget to comment for your chance to win some fab new Unity stamps.


Have a great day!

Stampendous Sketch Challenge # 40

Here's what I made for this week's Stampendous Sketch Challenge. I haven't used these gorgeous Poppy stamps in a while. They are so perfect for coloring with Copic markers. I paired the image with some beautiful American Crafts paper that I have had for a while. I will be sending this off to my mom who is in a Rehab facility after breaking her ankle in two places, hope it brightens her day!

Unity Friends With Flair

Today I just have a quick post because I am busy working on cards to submit to upcoming issues for some card magazines. This card was really quick and simple to do. I used decorative tape across the card which adds a bit of flair without a great deal of work.

My Little Shoe Box Layout Sketch Challenge



I have not done any scrap booking in a long, long time. However this fun sketch from My Little Shoebox really sparked my interest and I had to give it a try. I love this collection of papers from My Little Shoebox called Robots Unplugged and thought it was perfect to use for my son's second birthday photos.






Hope you liked seeing something different, please leave me a comment and become a blog follower.








Have a great day!
