Day 5!

I am proud to announce that I am Unity Stamp's Growing in Unity Girl this week. It is my pleasure to showcase some of their wonderful products and different ways to use them. 

For those not familiar with Unity Stamp, this small family owned business offers over 60,000 sentiments and images all of which are produced in the USA. In addition they offer dies, paper and more! 

Welcome to Day 5! I am sad to say that today is my final post for UnityStampCo. I hope you have enjoyed my projects. I appreciate the kind words and comments you have been leaving!

For my final project, I completed another winter card. I enjoy having a stash of cards to send out to brighten someone's day. 

I started with the Rustic Christmas Paper Pack layering three of the different papers. These colors and patterns mix and match so well. 

I went back to the Fa La La La La kit of the month. I stamped the holly leaf and berries stamp using Distress Oxides. I fussy cut them and highlighted with black pen. I added a tag and using one of the circle die cuts added the sentiment stamp. Now my card is ready to mail. 

I hope I have inspired you this week to check out the stamps, papers and more over at UnityStampCo. 

Thank you for all of your kind words and comments. I hope you are inspired or maybe have learned some new ideas for how to use your papers and stamps. Don't forget to leave a comment for a chance to win a $20 gift card. 

Thank you Unity Stamps for allowing me to be a part of the Unity Girls! 

Please stay tuned for the announcement of the gift card winners!

Today I have another winter inspired card for you. 

I went back to another Kit of the Month. This was 12/14 called Warmth of Winter. 

This kit has a wonderful collection of stamps that could be used for many occasions. 

I also used the Define the Season - Ephemera Pack

I cut these out and used them to create the background. UnityStampCo has everything you need to craft the perfect card. I know my sister will love getting this one!

Thank you for all of your kind words and comments. We are halfway through the week. 

It is the season of gift giving and even in this day and age of electronic communications, I am a firm believer in a hand written thank you card. This adorable set is perfect for this project!

You will want to get your kids and grandkids involved using Mice Lil Thank You to make thank you cards.

It would be easy to stamp this mouse multiple times and have them color it. I fussy cut the mouse but you could also just stamp on a [piece of paper and have them write the thank you note on it. Anyone would be excited to get one of these in the mail.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by yesterday! 

Let's make a card today and the recent winter weather is my inspiration!

UnityStampCo offers a Kit of the Month. These are an 8.5 x 11 inch sheet filled with deeply etched red rubber stamps. This kit, named Fa La La La La, has trees, pumpkins this lovely girl on a bench. 

Everything I needed was in this kit - the girl, the snowflakes and the title. I painted her using watercolors and added glittery snow once dry.

Today I am highlighting a fun Birthday Stamp 

Happy Birthday Balloon

How cute are these tags which can be attached to birthday gifts! For two of the tags, I created a watercolor background before stamping. For the third, on the wine, I stamped and then painted. You will use this stamp over and over. In the gift bag is a book and the tag will be the perfect bookmark!
