Unity - Brown Thursday


Hello My Friends 

Welcome to to the Unity Brown Thursday HOP!!!!


There are so many NEW lovely stamps in this AMAZING sale!!!

Here are a couple of my favourites!!

This card was made with the Full of Merry Kit and an older Unity stamp called Elf Christmas.

 My inspiration was the film ELF :) 

I LOVE Buddy!!!



My next card is made with the new Phyllis Harris stamp set called A Beauty all of it's Own!

 I used just the sentiment from this kit & added some die cut leaves and some white paint splatters.

 A quick how to for you if you want to do splatters.
Put your card into an empty box or over the sink to do your splatters.
It is so much easier to clean up the mess.
If I just do it on my desk the splatters go EVERYWHERE!
I keep an empty box just for crafty messes :)
Water down your paint just a little
Load up a paint brush and tap gently on to your card until you are happy with the results.
Then I use my heat gun to speed up the drying.


My final card today was made with Joy to Go stamp set. 

 I love this one so much!!

Another quick tip chunky white or clear glitter makes great snow!!


I hope you are enjoying the hop and are getting lots of inspiration. 

Happy Shopping :)

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...

Tag Trio Day 5 GIU

 Hello Friends Welcome to my final day as GIU girl. I must say that I have loved every minute of it and I have enjoyed putting all of my projects together for you to see. So I wanted to end my week with some distress tags. I love getting messy with my distress inks and using the embossing resist technique. I chose this lovely flower stamp set called  Insightful Meadows . The sentiments are from another stamp set called  The Simple Things . These were so easy to make I stamped all of the flowers and heat embossed them with white embossing powder. Then I took 3 different colours for each tag and swiped them on to my craft sheet. I spritzed some water and let the tag pick up the inks. I dried them 3 or 4 times in between until I had built up the colours I wanted.  I then stamped out the sentiments on to vellum and heat embossed them with white embossing powder. I attached the vellum with glue and glued it at the back of ...

Craft Stamper November Challenge

Hey Friends Welcome to a new  Craft Stamper  challenge for November. Can you believe we are almost at the end of the year already!!  Where did time go?? It has been pretty cold and frosty up here in Scotland for the last few nights.   But I am hanging on to Autumn as long as I can. I took a wee walk around the park and collected some lovely Autumn leaves.  I wanted to incorporate them into my project today.  I put the leaves in some paper and put them inside a heavy book overnight to press them down.  I started off with a white card base and used this sentiment stamp from Unity and repeat stamped all down the side of my card using Potting Soil Archival Ink. Then I went around the edges with Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink.  Next I took my leaves and my paper punches and punched a heart shape out from the yellow leaf and then stuck it to my card with fabric glue.  Then I punched som...
