I Love Big Books ~ CS Reminder

 

  
Hello Friends
 
Happy Friday!!  I am back with a wee reminder for the Craft Stamper challenge this month.
 
 I made this card for today! I thought this sentiment was so cute :)  I thought I would pair two different stamps together to create my card. They are from Unity and they are called Ellie Girl & I Love Big Books.  I coloured her using my inktense watercolour pencils.   
 
  I am the kind of person that LOVES real books. I can't get into reading a book on my phone or an ereader.  I love the feel of a book in your hands and the sound of the pages as you flick them over.  I also love the smell of really old books.  Please tell me I am not alone in loving books ????  I am still reading my Christmas ones in January ha :)
 
So I hope you have some time to create something for this month's challenge if you have not already.  The theme this month is Take a Stamp. So as long as you use a stamp somewhere on your project that is all you need to enter. Remember there are two winners! The first gets some great Indian themed prizes from DaliArt. The other winner who the design team picks will have there project published in the Craft Stamper magazine.
 
So hop on back to the Craft Stamper Blog for all of the details. 
 
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today!

Unity & Misti Blog Hop

Hello My lovelies :) Welcome to the Unity and Misti blog hop! I  hope you are enjoying seeing all of the projects so far. I just had my first wee play with the Misti tool the other day. It is a very new to me tool and wow do I LOVE it!! It is awesome! Just for the simplest of things like positioning a stamp.  One time is all you need with the Misti!! I am not one of those crafters that gets my stamped images crisp first time. I usually have wasted a card or two before I end up with a perfect image. This tool totally eliminates all of that.  Here is my very first card that I made with the Misti tool and Unity stamps.  I used a stamp called  Scattered Pieces . I LOVE this stamp and the sentiments that come with it.  I positioned the feather and the sentiment at the same time on the Misti.  I totally love that you can do that too!  It lets you stamp several at once instead of just eye b...

Happy Valentine's Day - Craft Stamper Inspiration

Hello my friends happy Valentine's Day!  I made this stamped jar for my inspiration project for the  Craft Stamper Challenge today.  This is my husband's old coffee jar that was heading to the recycling bin. I always like to save them and make something with them.  I gave it a couple of coats of white chalk paint and let it air dry. Next I stamped it with memento ink.  The stamp I used is from Unity called  Smooches and Stuff  by Phyllis Harris.  I just love all of her art work. I let that completely dry then used my alcohol markers to colour it.  While I was at the craft store I found this nice heart kraft ribbon in the Valentine section.  I tied it around the top to finish.  I love the way it turned out. I hope you have some time to come and join in this month's challenge with us.  As always we have wonderful prizes up for grabs.  All of the details ca...
