Unity Stamp Company | Inspiration Wednesday

Hi friends, Crystal here with Unity Inspiration Wednesday. For this lovely day, I decided to use the newest Kit of the Month!  My color palette of inspiration is one I found on Pinterest called #847



I loved how bright and pretty that was, and thought it perfect to use with the gorgeous feather from KOM.


So, away I went to heat emboss the floral feather on to white watercolor paper and watercolor the living out of this image!


Then I heat embossed the sentiment on black cardstock and stuck that on with foam adhesive. 


To finish the card, a few drops of Nuvo drop are added. 


I hope you have been inspired by this gorgeous color combo. Hope you make something and be sure to tag us on your social media so we can take a look!

Hugs!

Hi! Day 4 of my Unity Christmas Card Series! Today I have a very simple black and kraft card.

The trees have some "ice" made with a mix of black nuvo and crystal glitter nuvo. The effect is quite striking.

Unity Stamp Company | Christmas Cards Series | 2

Thanks for checking in today! I have my second Christmas card made with Unity stamps!






This square card is featuring October Kit of the Month, and patterned paper

Unity Stamp Company | Christmas Card Series | 1

Hi there! Today I have a new Christmas card series I decided to begin as I make ALOT of cards I never seem to share.

Part of my crafty job is to make videos and cards for Unity Stamp Company, as I mentioned I am making about 30 cards a month. These are being shared on the Unity side of things, but I been bad about sharing them on my side.

My first Christmas card is this heat embossed, layered card made with several different Unity Stamps.




The red turned out a bit pink, but it really is Cherry Cobbler from Stamping Up.

Pretty Pink Posh | November Blog Hop

Welcome to my blog on this wonderful Pretty Pink Posh November Blog Hop! This is the last release of PPP for the year, and Paulina has done it again! If you are new to this hop, please hop back over to the Pretty Pink Posh Blog and start there. If not, thank you for continuing along this crafty journey. lol!


This release is my favorite ( I know I said that every time! However, the dies are AWESOME!!) I love how Pretty Pink Posh is adding another look to their product line. So, without further ado, this is my project for the hop.


I am keeping it simple with this non-stamping card. 

To make this, I watercolored Gold Gansai Tambi onto the card base, then layered gold paper to create a ribbon. The top white cardstock is splattered with gold watercolor. Once that was dried, I die cut the Festive Holly from Stampin Up Cherry Cobbler & Pear Pizzaz cardstock, and adhered those with foam. 


The Merry Christmas Script was then die cut from gold glitter paper. To finish off, I added Metallic Gold Confetti.

Now, that you have added these dies to your cart lets move on to the important stuff... Paulina is giving away 4 $25 gift certificates to the Pretty Pink Posh store. All you have to do is comment by 11:59 PM PST on 11/7/2017. Winners will be announced on the PPP blog.

Your next stop is the brilliant Keeway Tsao

If you get lost, here is the Line-Up!


Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today! I encourage to follow me on Instagram for daily crafty talk :) 

Blessings!

Winnie & Walter | Grammie's birthday


Hi there! Wanting to stop by for a quick post about this card made for MIL (Mother In Love) birthday. I made it way ahead of time as my hubby was going to fly in for her surprise birthday party. Then we decided that the whole family needed to go. So all 6 of us hopped on the airplane and flew to Denver. We showed up at 1:00 am on her doorstep! It was a very fun surprise and it was nice that I had this card done ahead of time since I don't think I would have had time while packing for the crew.


Every product on this card with the exception of the cardstock & ink are Winnie & Walter Products. Of course, I had to add some lovely embelies from Pretty Pink Posh.

It was a stunning card and I felt proud to present it to her.

xoxo,

Crystal
