Stamp Simply

It's time for another super fun challenge from Sharon Johnson! This week....3D flowers. How excited was I for this challenge! Of course I pulled out a bit of Flower Soft for this one! My fav! To keep it super simple I am using one of my favorite Flower Soft toppers. These are amazing and make you look like an artist! Take a peek.....

I LOVE the art work on this topper. It's beautiful! I added a bit of yellow, sage, and Raspberry Fizz to this one as well as distressing the edges.

Unity & Cosmo!

What a wonderful combo....Unity & Cosmo Cricket. I'm so excited about the new line of stamps that Unity has released for Cosmo Cricket. They are absolutely adorable and you know I LOVE that they match everything in their corresponding lines! LOVE it! I've got a few projects to share with you today.

First up a layout using the 'Get Scrappy With' Material Girl kit. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this one! I actually used some of the Garden Variety paper for my layout but it was just what this one needed. Take a peek.....

Here's a close up.....

I stamped the journaling block and then paper pieced the tip of it and added a little stitching. I ended up trimming it and adding it as an embellishment once it was all said and done.

Next up a card with the Material Girl kit. I LOVE the little sewing machine in this kit. The paper for this one is from the Material Girl line....


The buttons are also Cosmo Cricket and from the Garden Variety line.

The next card is an EPLS {easy peasy lemon squeezy} card using the Garden Variety kit. I added a bit of recycled kraft card stock to this one.....


I colored the tomato with my Copics and added a simple ribbon.

That's it for me today. Now it's time to head over to my sweet friend Natalie's blog.

Enjoy the rest of the hop! :) I will post you soon! :)

Merry, Merry, Merry

More from the Unity front. Today I've got a little Christmas cheer. I'm so very in LOVE with the new Christmas set Merry, Merry, Merry. It's AMAZING! I created one using this weeks CPS sketch. Take a peek....

How many ways do I LOVE this little Christmas tree. It's so adorable! I used some of my favorite Jillibean Soup for this one. The line is Grandmas Christmas Soup. The sketch is CPS' #164.

Don't forget to head over to the Unity Forum at SplitCoast Stampers for games and fun!

More from the Unity front tomorrow....As the Hop Continues......... ;)

Have a good one!

Happy Anniversary Baby!

This is such an exciting week! It's Unity's anniversary! OMHeck! It's been so much fun being part of Unity and watching them grow. I am truly so honored to be part of their team. They are truly a family. This week has so many fun challenges and games and NEW stamps...sooooo much Unity goodness! Happy Times!

I've got a sample with one of my favorite new Unity kits, Heart Times. Take a peek.....

How sweet are those little Rx bottles! LOVE this set! It's the cutest! I picked up some new paper at a new scrapbook store while doing a little shopping after the Copic class {more to come on that later...what a FUN time!} The paper is from the Lush line from My Minds Eye. I colored the image with my Copic's and used this weeks CPS sketch as a starting point.

Now it's time to head over to sweet Natalie's blog....the button should be working, I tested it, but just in case.... ;)

Hope you enjoy the rest of today's hop. I will be back tomorrow with more. :) Post you all soon! :)
