Fall for You


My card for today is made using stamps from the Unity kit, Fall For You, I love these little birds! Lots of Unity kits available here.   I embossed some white card with a Cuttlebug embossing folder which also has little birds in the design, and cut a mat from a Nesties die to stamp the images on, inking the edge with a Color Box ink pad.  I coloured them in with Promarkers, and used DCWV bp.  I finished with a Card Candy greeting, Prima flowers and metallic nailheads.

Materials
Stamps - Unity
Inks - Memento, Color Box, Promarkers
Papers - DCWV
Other - Card Candy, Primas, metallic nailheads

Clean And Simple Cards

Hi all, got a very minimal card for you today. I'm really into CAS, clean and simple, cards and every now and then I get the urge to try to pare down my designs. 

For this simple design I have used one of the beautiful Suzi Blu girls available over at Make The Day Special, the sentiment is from the same stamp.




Thanks for popping by.

Quote canvas

Today I've been playing with Unity stamps and distress inks and a canvas board that I bought a while ago.

I used various inks in pink and purple hues to colour the background of the canvas applied with the Ranger tool. I then stamped using the Insightful Meadows set using green distress inks. The quote from the Quote Bundle Pack was stamped using brown Memento ink. I used tiny dots of Stickles in the flower centres.

The last addition was a few rhinestones.


Materials used:
canvas board
Ranger distress inks, brown Memento ink
unity stamps (as above)
rhinestones.

 I stamped 3 of one of the flower stamps and coloured them in with Promarkers, then matted that onto some Crafty Individuals bp.  I added a stamped greeting (unknown brand) and stamped one of the flourish stamps from the set around the edges of the card using Dusty Concord Distress Ink.  Finally I added some gems to finish.

Unity minibook

Hello as the title says I'm making a mini book using Unity stamps. Normally when i make a mini book its all patterned papers so this is a bit of a challenge to myself. Unity have some fantastic kits for scrapbookers and i figured this was a good way to try them out. The set I'm using for this is "Priceless reflections".
So far i have the front cover. Ive kept it quite simple and not too bulky. I started by spraying the cover with glimmer mists then used a matching distress ink to the edges. I then stamped the big corner text stamp in the corner using the same distress ink. Then using momento black i stamped the circles stamp twice and the the "Priceless" stamp. To finish i added some mini alpha stickers and the flower. I hope to have more pages from the book to share soon.
There are lots of unity here here and special offer here.
Thanks for looking.
