Growing in Unity - Day 5

Wow!  I can't believe today is my last day at the Growing in Unity Girl.  I have so much fun playing with the different styles of Unity Stamp Co. stamps.  Today, I'm going out with a toast and some sparkles.  I'm using the Let's Get SIP FACED stamp set to send out the week with a "Cheers!".  You might be able to tell that I used just a touch of Wink of Stella on the wine bottles to add a little sparkle to them too.

I hope you have enjoyed my projects this week.  If you have missed any, you can link back here:

Growing in Unity - Day 4

Wow! I can't believe it is Thursday - Day 4 of my week at the Growing in Unity Girl.  This week has just flown by.

I have featured some more classical stamps the last couple days.  Today, I'm back to another "punny" stamp.  This time it is from PUN in the Ocean.  Unity Stamp Co knocked it out of the park with this stamp set, in my humble opinion.

I hope you have enjoyed a glance at today's card.  Make sure you leave a comment for a chance to win 2 Itty Bitty Stamps.  You will have until Monday, Sept 1st to leave comments on today's and all of my blog posts this week.  I will choose 1 winner from all the comments.  If you have missed a day or two, here are the links:

Growing in Unity - Day 3

Hi!

Welcome back to Day 3 of my Growing in Unity week.  If you have hopped over from Unity Stamp's blog, I'm glad to have you here.  I hope you stay a while (like following this blog ;-) ).

I couldn't resist using the January 2014 Kit of the Month set: Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful stamp set for another card.  The sentiments are so perfect.  I truly believe you should be your own kind of beautiful.

Don't forget to leave comments for a chance to win 2 Itty Bitty stamps of your choice.  In case you missed them, here are the links to my previous Growing in Unity cards:

Growing in Unity - Day 2

Today is my 2nd installment as the Growing in Unity Girl.  I am using the January 2014 Kit of the Month set: Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful for today's project.  This set features so many wonderful designs and sayings.  I have to say, this may be one of my all time faves.

Thank you for visiting today.  Don't forget leave a comment for your chance to win 2 Itty-Bitty stamps of your choice (here is a link to Day 1 - leave a comment there too, if you haven't already).  I would also love it if you would follow along here on the blog.

See you tomorrow for more!

SSInk: CASE the Stampin' Up Catalog

It's Friday!  Woohoo!

SSInspiration is having a lot of fun today, CASEing the Stampin' Up Catalog.  CASE stands for Copy And Steal Everything - you can copy the card exactly as it is, or you can just use it as a jumping off point for your card.  As you would expect, the Stampin' Up catalog has so many inspiring pieces throughout its pages.  I really enjoyed grabbing my Work of Art stamp set and CASEing the card on page 164 from the catalog.  I added some water to my stamps to soften the edges of the ink.  I think it gave it a really pretty look/blend.

Cheers!

SSInk: August Sketch

Happy Monday!  Today is Card Sketch Day on SSInk.  Everyone had such different ideas using Stampin' Up products to make our cards - from punches to stamps (of course!) to stamped images split into 3 pieces.

Here is the sketch:

For my take on the sketch, I used punches layered together to create the pattern.  And I have to say, I'm just kind of a little in love with this Sweet Taffy Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up.

Cheers!

SSInk: Anniversary Post

SSInk (Stylin' Stampin' Inkspiration) is celebrating our 1 year anniversary!  It has been so much fun creating with these girls...and a good excuse to pull out all my new Stampin' Up stuff and put it to use.  

The theme for our anniversary post was Anything Goes.  I have to admit, I love that type of challenge/theme.  For this challenge, I used 3 stamp sets I just got in my hot little hands: Be The Star, Work of Art and A Happy Hooray.  I love how way they all play together.  

SSInk is kicking off our 2nd year with some new ways to keep in touch with us.
Now you can follow us on Pinterest!
