Okay, I was having a creative streak tonight and made a second card for Hiding in My Craft Room's Challenge. If you missed the last post, it's for Challenge #137: Designer x3. Basically, use 3 pattern papers. Last time I used MME, this time, I've got DCWV. I just got the Burlap Paper 6 x 6 stack last week and I've been dying to use it, so I dug out my Animal Crackers Mat Stack, and some Unity Stamp Co stamps(I used "Hello Little One") and got to work. Here's what I came up with:  A little more subtle on the patterns with this one. The red, brown & green are all patterned but they tend to "read" as a solid. Especially in a card like this. And I love the animal prints in the polka dots. The hearts were glittered with Xmas Red Stickles from Ranger, and the ink is CTMH Cocoa.  Alright, it's almost 2 am here, I'm off to bed. Maybe I'll see you yet again this weekend. I'm feeling rather paper crafty at the moment. :-)  ...

Hi all! Haven't been around in a couple of weeks, it's been a little crazy, knitting & crocheting projects are taking over my life and add in a sick kiddo and I get no paper crafting time. I'm almost done with the couple of projects I'm working on so it should be better in the next week. :-) So today is Friends with Flair at Unity Stamp Co, and I made this card that I wanted to share. I made this with the fabulous girl itty bitty from Unity and the Sweetest Thing Bluebell 6 x 6 paper pad and matching washi tape from My Mind's Eye. Also used Silver Liquid Pearls & Tuxedo Black ink by Momento. Love how the paper pieced dresses turned out.  I'm also linking this up to Hiding in My Craft Room's Challenge #137 Designer Paper x3 . Love patterned paper and the challenge was to use 3 patterned papers. :-)  Thanks for stopping by today! Brittany

Hi guys! Told you it would be the middle of the night when I posted! It's currently 5:24 am and I haven't been to bed yet, lol. :-) Thanks so much for all the sweet comments during my week as a Growing in Unity gal, I loved them all! And now what I know you're here for, I used Random.org to pick a day of the week first... And it picked number 4, so Thursday's post it is. There were 27 comments on my super fun owl card, so I input that into Random.org and it picked number 13!  So I counted to the 13th comment and here is the winner: michelegeorgern January 30, 2014 at 12:50 PM Owlishness!!! Yay for you! You get to pick 2 itty bitty stamps of your choice from Unity Stamp Co! Send me an email(britngavin@ymail.com) or send me a message on facebook so I can give your name to Unity, please. :-)  Thanks so much for stopping by again today.  Brittany

Well hi there! Thanks for stopping by for my last day of my Growing in Unity week with Unity Stamp Co. ! I've had a lot of fun this week sharing projects with all of you! Today I'm sharing a birthday card I made with Maggie Girl(who's currently on sale for $7 here ). I love the ANGIE Girls, I have a few but I need more of them!  So here's my last project for GiU:  She's colored with Spectrum Noir Markers(I don't remember the colors though right now, it was REALLY late when I was coloring...), & the papers are from Echo Park Paper Co's Springtime line. Yeah, I'm not even pretending to be subtle about missing spring anymore. Started out with just bright colors and now I'm on to just using the spring paper lines, lol. :-) I also used a Sakura Clear Stardust pen for some light sparkle. Maggie & sentiment are stamped with Momento Tuxedo Black ink.  I'll also be linking this up for Friends with Flair on the Unity blog today! :-) ...

Aww, my Growing in Unity week is almost over. That makes me sad. :-( So if you haven't been here all week I'm Growing in Unity with Unity Stamp Co. this week. I've gotten to post fun projects all week, and looking at them all, I can tell that I'm missing spring. I've been breaking out the fun bright colors all week. Not my fault, I'm in Minnesota and well it was -45 degrees here for 2 days this week and they called off school those 2 days too. My kiddo has been in school for all of 11 days this January! It's crazy! So continuing on with my bright and fun for the week, today I played with the " Hoot of a Day " itty bitty. The owl was just cute and I wanted to color him up. :-) Here he is: Okay, so I used him 3 times, lol. But they're cute and colorful. :-) The papers are from the Bella Blvd Birthday Girl Collection Kit, I colored the owls with my Spectrum Noir markers(colors listed below), added some Stardust Stickles and sequins and s...

Hi there! We're on Day Three of my Growing in Unity week for Unity Stamp Co. and I can't believe it's half over already! So for today's project, I played with the itty bitty Fashionista "Marlow". I love that she's an itty bitty and am hoping for more itty bitty Fashionistas. :-) This is the one project I wish you could all see in person, the picture just doesn't do it justice. So here's Marlow... I used the My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Portobello Road 6 x 6 paper pad. Loved the warmer greys that worked with her dress. However, there was no sparkle on the paper so I grabbed the Star Dust Stickles and everywhere that there was a little diamond, got sparkled. :-) It's so much more sparkly in real life. I honestly love it. I colored Marlow with my Spectrum Noir markers(EB5, 7 & 8 for her hair, BG2 & 4 for her dress- which I then added Star Dust Stickles to, DR5 & 7 for her lips & rose, CT1 for her drink & FS2 ...

Hi again all! I'm back with my second project for my Growing in Unity week. This time around I made a baby card with the set " Hello Little One ". I love this set, it's super cute and I love the animals! Of course, I couldn't pick just one so I used all three. :-)  Here's my card: See, they're super cute! I used my Distress Markers again. They're pretty much solid rubber and I didn't want them black or solid brown so I grabbed the markers again. :-) I used Broken China, Worn Lipstick, Gathered Twigs, Brushed Corduroy, Mustard Seed & Spiced Marmalade. After doing the animals in color, I carried it on to the sentiment. I decided it made it more cohesive. The papers are from My Mind's Eye Sweetest Thing-Tangerine. Also used baker's twine from The Twinery in Shore Stripe, Cantaloupe Stripe & Buttercream Stripe.  I love how this card turned out! Don't forget to leave a comment to have a chance to win 2 itty bitty stamps ...
