Grow Your Wings!

Hi there, what another beautiful day!
I want to share one of my favourite things today...made with some of my favourite stamps! An Inky Stampy Tag!
This Tag is HUGE!!...Must measure and take a template before I use the last one, as I have no idea where I got them from!!

I have used 'Life Becoming' one of the Unity Store kits, available from the lovely Emily here and of course my very favourite kit 'The Artist In You'  available here had to make an appearance!!! I 'swooshed' some Distress Inks onto my craft sheet and sprayed water onto them and then dipped my Tag in several times, drying between each layer with my heat tool....

The images are all clear embossed (well it wouldn't be me if they weren't, would it??!!) I put the ribbon between 2 metal holders a little way from the bottom as I had a gap between the leaves and the foliage stamps!

I have gone over the Tag with Perfect Pearls, which gives it a lovely shimmery effect..which can't be seen too well in the photo...

The Butterfly is coloured with the Perfect Pearls...just made a paint of them with my water brush...

I just added some Primas and a little Glossy Accents and I was done!

I hope you like it, thanks for looking and I'll see you soon.....Enjoy the sunshine!!

Enjoy This Day

I've used two Unity Store Kits that compliment each other perfectly for today's card:

Life Becoming

Quiet Essence

 I've paper pieced the flower and heat embossed the sentiment.

Other materials: paper from My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Collection, Sizzix Pillow Box Die, Sizzix Traditional Tags Die, Small 'Enjoy' stamp from My Cute Stamps 'Matryoshka Doll' set (which is probably my most used stamp!).

Thanks for dropping in,

Congrats

Hello.

Today I'm showing of some Lawn fawn.

These stamps are just so versatile and have really fun images.

Ive used all new lawn fawn sets on this card.

Quinns ABC

School house backdrops

Blissfull botanicals.

These are all available to buy from here.
I kept this very simple by stamping onto the card.

The flowers were stamped separately and cut out .

This card also uses Quinns ABC and also happily ever after.

I stamped the letters straight onto the card and filled them in with stickles.

The glasses were stamped and coloured with pro markers before i added them to the card as i didn't want the ink to bleed through.

Thanks for looking.

Ice Creams All Round!

Fancy an Ice cream? It is Raspberry Ripple...

Mmm yummy! The ice cream is one of the cute stamps from the Sweet Chocolate My Cute Stamp set available over at Make The Day Special. I might have gone a little glitter crazy on this one! The sentiment is from the same set. 

So with or without the chocolate flake?

Life Becoming!

Morning! What a lovely Monday morning it is too....
Today I'd like to show you  a really quick and easy card...

I have used 2 of the Unity Store Kits, 'Life Becoming' and 'Quiet Essence' available from the lovely Emily here  I started with a 6"x6" card blank and covered it with patterned paper (I think PaperMania) and I used the lovely Scroll stamp from my most favourite kit...'The Artist In You', again available from Emily here stamped in Sage Distress Ink...I really don't know what I'd do without this kit, it's so useful! The Frame is stamped and embossed and I've just stamped and clear embossed the Sentiment. The Flower is stamped on to printed paper (K&CO this time!) twice and layered, with just a little Glossy Accents in the middle..

It is ages since I shared an Inky project with you....so I thought I'd share a Tag today....

I had so much fun making this! Didn't have any idea what I had in mind when I started, just knew which stamps and inks I wanted to use! I have used the very same kits as in the card....see that Scroll has made another appearance! I stamped and clear embossed the background stamp and one of the Flowers, then coloured all over with Distress Stains and blended Distress Inks over the top. I then 'water splattered' stamped the Bird and embossed again! The Flower is stamped onto the same paper as before and layered.
I have just embossed the Scrolls and top of the Tag with White embossing powder. All that was left was to add some ribbon!
And there you have it! Two different things using the same stamps! I love how versatile Unity stamps are!

Thanks for looking, have a good Monday and I'll see you soon.
