Gotta say, I love that Unity has so many options for their Be Inspired Challenge. 2 Sketch Challenges and a Color Inspiration Challenge every month. Love it. This month definitely inspired me. So I'm back with my take on the Card Sketch Challenge, since I've already shown you the Layout Sketch And Color Inspiration Challenges. This is the sketch: And here's what I did with it: The stamp set is "Feel the Joy" which is from the Unity Stamp Co. Itty Bitty Collection. I colored it direct to stamp with Tim Holtz Distress Markers(Peeled Paint, Spiced Marmalade, and Festive Berries for the flowers and Walnut Stain for the sentiment). Papers are from My Mind's Eye Stella & Rose- Mabel 6 x 6 paper pad. I'm not entirely sure who made the baker's twine, I've had it for a couple of years. :-)  So thanks for visiting the last few days. It's been fun, now to finish up baby blankets and make a hat for my niece! :-)  Brit

Hi there, so I'm back with another entry for the Unity Be Inspired Challenge for this month. This time I took on the color challenge. I had so much fun playing with the colors and while they reminded me of Halloween, I so didn't do anything Halloween related! I played with the Unity Itty Bitty "Matching Socks" this time, and it was the first time I'd really gotten to play with it, and I'm so glad I did! Those socks are fun to color! So here was the Color Challenge: And here's what I did with it! I added some purple and only used black for an ink pad color, but it was a blast to color!  Inks Used: Momento: Tuxedo Black Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pad: Dusty Concord, Vintage Photo Spectrum Noir Markers: LG3&5, LV1-3, OR1-3, EB2, TN1 Thanks for stopping by today! Check back tomorrow, I'm hoping to get the card sketch done too yet! :-) Brit

Hi all! I'm back! Summer was crazy, didn't get to scrap nearly as much as I wanted to. Did get a lot of other projects done though! So I saw the sketches for Unity's Be Inspired Challenge this month and loved them, decided I needed to actually create them and get back in the swing of scrappy things! This is my first one up, the Layout Sketch. I don't usually follow sketches for layouts, but I really like this one!  So here's the sketch: And here's my take on it:  The papers are from Trinity Paper Arts "Making the Team" collection, all stamps are from Unity Stamp Co.(book w/ apple and "remember this" came in a grab bag, the others are from Splatters and Stars- All Boy which is an itty bitty set). 1st grade is spelled out in Thickers from American Crafts, stamp pads used- TH Distress Ink in Rusty Hinge and Faded Jeans, Momento in Tuxedo Black. Books w/ Apple Stamp is colored with Spectrum Noir Markers(DR3, DR5, BT9, GB7, ...

Oh wow, I can't believe it was the end of March the last time I posted. I'm sad now! Maybe I just need to start posting my crochet projects on here too since I've been working on that a LOT lately(I have 4 baby blankets to get done by the end of August). So today is Friday, and that means it's Friends with Flair at the Unity Stamp Co. blog today. So after you check out my project, go over and check out the other entries for Friends with Flair this week! And don't forget to check out the Unity store this weekend. They're having their "Mid-Year Sale" this weekend, all of the stamps that have been released so far in 2014 are on sale 50% off. :-) Here's my project for this week: I got the 2 stamps in a grab bag, so I'm not sure which Unity sets they're from, but I was having way too much fun playing with Dylusions Spray Inks on this card(I used Funky Fuchsia, After Midnight, Bubblegum Pink, Crushed Grape & Calypso Teal). Also used Mom...

Hi all! Welcome to this stop of the Growing in Unity Blog Hop! I was a Growing in Unity gal back in January and I had so much fun that I HAD to agree to the blog hop! You should've come here from Corrie's blog, and if you're just jumping in feel free to start at the Unity Stamp Co. Blog(the entire blog line up is listed down below)!  We got to play with this week's Stamp of the Week called Berry Sweet Moments and let me say, it's super cute! I haven't gotten to play with paper lately but this stamp sure made me want to right away! Here's what I did with it: Pretty simple, but I loved the berries so much, that I didn't want to do too much to them. I used the DCWV Summer Magic 6 x 6 Paper Stack and paper pieced the berries. After I had the card assembled I used Rock Candy Distress Stickles just to make them a tad sparkley and shiny. All papers other than the white are from the same stack.  Now check out the rest of the hop, Jessica is up n...

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
