Friday Friends With Flair... Who Does That??

If you know Unity stamps then you know the answer to the question in my title and their new tag line. The answer is Unity Stamps Does That!!!

What do they do???

• They produce the most wonderful stamps around
• They love their customers and take good care of them
• They give a jazillion stamps away
• They keep things fresh and fun
• They inspire us to be better stampers and better people
• They provide a forum for fans to get together and encourage each other

Seriously....Who does that???

I am so happy to be a part of the wonderful network of people who love Unity stamps. It is so fun to participate in the weekly blog hops and see what other talented stampers are doing with their stamps. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and checking out what I have made for today's Friends With Flair post.

I decided to make a card for this week's Unity Addicts Challenge that you can find right HERE. We were challenged to make a holiday card using Red, Pink, Blue and Kraft. And this is what I came up with...

This stamp is called Love Builds a Home and comes with a beautiful sentiment inside the big cloud, but because it didn't fit the holiday theme, I decided to mask my card to keep the words from stamping and then I just wrote in my own sentiment (Edited to Add: I wrote snow instead of woods! OOPs!!) I chose part of the quote from the Thanksgiving Song by Lydia Maria Child. I'll admit that I first thought that line went with a Christmas theme, but when I looked it up I realized it was intended for Thanksgiving. But, Thanksgiving is a holiday too right?? The DP is from MME.

Here is a closeup of the cute little house that I colored with my Copics! I paper pieced my trees with more of the coordinating papers from MME. They are blue! You know like Blue Spruce Trees!! LOL!!

I hope you are having fun looking at all the great creations on everyone's blogs. If you want to start at the beginning, just go HERE to the Unity blog around 10am CST and you will see the list of all the blogs participating. Don't forget to find the Blinkie!!!

Be sure to check out all the Who Does That? fun stuff over at the Unity Forum where there are lots of chances to win tons of stamps! Have a great Friday, and may your bucket overflow with a lot of fun things to do this weekend!

Today is Sweet as Candy...

...because it is another Sweet Sketch Wednesday WEDNESDAY!!! And I am excited to share some sweet creations with you!! We are happy that on this 15th week of sweet sketches we have another sweet sponsor and it is none other than Regina at the Cutting Cafe. Today is extra sweet too because we had two sketches to work with, one for our Cutting Cafe card and another one that I used some sweet Unity on!

Here is the first sketch called Sweet Sketch 15 Doubletake...

And here is the Halloween card that I made which uses three of The Cutting Cafe's digistamps that come in her Halloween This and That collection.

The DP you see here is from a collection of papers by The Little Yellow Bicycle called Frightful. I like it because the hues are deeper and it helps make them a bit more masculine. I played with the size of my images before printing out these digistamps and altered them to suit my needs. I added the MS spider web border punch and a ribbon I got from Michael's and then I distressed the edges with a blade and some black ink. I left a little white (er I mean green) space on the bottom left corner which isn't very easy for me to do!!

Here is the other sketch we were given to use that I found just a bit more challenging.

For this one I did some masking and used the candycorn from Trick or Treat Peeps and the "Sweet" and "It's all about the Candycorn" sentiments from the new Hauntingly Sweet sets.

I used some cute new paper from Tim Coffey (that looks blurry on screen) and also broke out one of my new Border Punches (loops) from Martha Stewart and a new Nestie frame that I also bought recently. I decided to make the center box a little larger than the other two and I stamped three candy corns in a row and then placed a candycorn embellishment over the center one. I tried to keep this one sweet and frilly because it will probably go to one of the young girls in my family for Halloween!

To see more of the creations made by the DT you can follow the names on my sidebar or you can go directly to the SSW blog and view them there. I hope you decide to play along and submit your card this week because Regina is giving away FREE Cutting Cafe digistamps to the winner of this challenge next week!

Congratulations to Sue Morris for winning last week's challenge by Inktegrity! You can see her adorable winning card HERE. Contact Arlana if you haven't done so already to collect your FREE stamps!!

Here's to hoping that you have a very sweet Wednesday and that your bucket overflows with lots of sweet candy (real or eye depending on if you are dieting or not!!) :-)

It's Whimsie Doodles New Release Day!!

And do I have a Fish Tale for you!!

Well actually I have a card that I made from one of the new sets called Fish Tales that is being released today at Whimsie Doodles. You are going to go nuts when you see this! It is truly an amazing set with so much versatility. It is one that can appeal to male as well as female tastes. Check it out for yourself... you will see what I mean.

Fish Tales

For this birthday card I chose to use the Mermaid, the Clam shell and the Octopus! What?? you don't see an OCTOPUS on my card?? Well that's because I stretched it long ways before I printed it out and turned it upside and cut it's head off and used it as SEAWEED!!!!

Here is a closeup of the adorable mermaid. Since I wanted this card to have a magical feel to it, I used a lot of glitter both on the mermaid and on the sand. she is colored with my Copic markers. The DP I used is from K& Co's Addison collection. To add to the effect of the sea for the background paper, I ran it through the CB with one of my swirly embossing plates.

Many of the sentiments included in this set are very Punny!! This one was perfect for the magical card I was trying to create! The shell is a charm that I purchased at my LSS. It came in silver originally, but with a few swipes with my Elmer's Painters pen in opaque gold, I changed it to the color that I needed! For the glitter effects, I used my Sakura Gelly Roller, my Copic atyou Spica pen and some stickles!

Here is the other set that is being released today at Whimsie Doodles. This one is called Bits and Bites and is the perfect Halloween set to buy to get your Halloween cards, projects and layouts done with! Both sets are for sale today for only $4.99. It is truly a bargain when you see what all comes in a set and how you can use these images over and over again!!

Have a great day and may your bucket overflow with magical things today! Here is a Shout out to my sister Kelly who is having a birthday today! May your day be magical today too!!

Whimsie Doodles Sneak Peek!

Melyssa at Whimsie Doodles is releasing some new digistamps tomorrow and I am excited to be showing you a Sneak Peek of one of her new images today! If you come back tomorrow I will show you more of the new releases and also another project I have made for this release. As always, they are all adorable and you won't want to miss getting them!

Today's project is super easy and shows off one of the wonderful advantages that digistamps have over traditional rubber stamps. Because digistamps are electronic image files, and are printed out using your home printer, they can also be printed out on anything that can run through your printer.

For my project today I am using T-shirt Transfer paper to print on and then I am ironing it onto my project!

Here is a cute little Trick-or-Treat bag that I made using a cheap Michael's canvas bag and a digistamp from the Bits and Bites set being released tomorrow at Whimsie Doodles.

With each digistamp you purchase from Melyssa, you receive a jpg and png file. The neat thing about the png files is that no matter how you resize them, they maintain their print quality. As you can see from a closeup below, I enlarged this image from its original size of 1.9" x 2.6" to nearly four times its size at 4.09" x 5.63" and you can see how it has maintained a very clear quality without pixelating.

To add to the project I added my own text box in Microsoft Word to include the "Happy Halloween" sentiment on the bag. And I also added my own ribbon bow and button that I placed over the Skull's drawn bow for extra dimension and interest.

This adorable image called the Skull will be available tomorrow at Whimsie Doodles in the Bits & Bites Halloween digistamp set. Don't be afraid!! Be sure to get yours right away!!

If you want to be sure to never miss out on any new releases or specials that Melyssa may be having over at Whimise Doodles, be sure to head on over to her blog and sign up for the newsletter. In so doing, you will be sent the adorable digistamp you see pictured below!

Click on the image above to sign up for your free stamp today!!

Have a great Monday and may your bucket overflow with easy projects for the upcoming holidays!

It's Friends with Flair Friday!! Enjoy the Day!

Today is going to be really fun because I get to participate in finding the Flair Blinkie! It was so fun having it on my blog last week and I really appreciated all the nice comments, but this week I am going hunting!! Have you found it yet??

I had lots of new Unity come in the mail this week, but I haven't had a lot of time to play with much of it. I did use some of the new Jillibean papers today from the Le Chic Vintage kit, but I can't show you what I made just yet!! But what I can show you is a card that I made for a good friend of mine that lives in Va Beach. She actually purchased one of my Etsy cards and then also commissioned me to make another one for her.

She requested me to make a card for the Parents of the Bride for a family member of her and her husbands. This isn't a category of card that I have ever made before so it was a bit of a challenge at first. I call it Enjoy the Day.

I masked off the word "relax" when I stamped the sentiment. Instead of using the butterfly that came in the Sept In-Store kit I used the one from the August 08 kit (because it was smaller). I did however use the butterfly trail in the new kit too. I embossed the front using the Quickutz Frame embossing folder in my Cuttlebug. To achieve the sponged look on the inner oval, I embossed the frame twice and cut the center out of the second one and placed it over the first one to use as a mask. I then pounced a combination of SU ink in Sky Blue and Certainly Celery. This card will also be entered into the first challenge being held over at the Paper Maniac blog which was to use embossing on our project.

Here is the view of the inside of the card...

My friend chose this sentiment from a list of ones I gave her that I found on the internet. I was thrilled to find out that she likes the card and found it acceptable!

Hope you are having fun hopping around and visiting all of our Unity Friends with Flair. I know that I am always so inspired by my fellow Unity fans! I am enjoying my day since it is the first of a three day weekend for me. I hope that you Enjoy the Day too!!

To start the blog hop at the beginning, please visit the Unity blog!

May your bucket continue to overflow with the freedom bestowed on us thanks to the protection we receive from the forces of men and women who courageously defend us! Today I remember those lost on 9/11 and pray for their families.

I Opened an Etsy Store!

So I finally decided to give Etsy a try. If you haven't heard of Etsy, it is an online site where handmade items can be bought and sold. I make so many cards these days, more than I can give away and I am tired of them sitting around here collecting dust. I already mail birthday and special occasion cards to my friends and family members and I also contribute cards to the Share a Card organization, but there are still too many left unsent. It only makes sense to try and sell them to somebody who would like to pass them on to someone in their life, right? Certainly people buy cards all the time, I am just hoping that maybe they will want to buy them from me!

I have no idea if this will be a successful venture or not, but I figured if I even recoup a small portion of the money I spend each month on papers and supplies it couldn't hurt!

Here is the link to my store. It is called none other than MyBucketOverfloweth! It is an appropriate name because my bucket actually does overflow with cards! Ha!!

I decided to additonally make some card sets to go into my Etsy store and I wanted to share with you the first set that I made. I tried to keep them clean and simple so the cost could stay down and it would appeal to the most people.

Here is the set that I call my Fall Four Pack!

Once again I used the adorable paper collection from Recollections that you can get from your local Michael's store. I just love how blue is an accent color for fall this year! I LOVE that!! Two cards are oriented landscape and two are portrait.

This card is called Fall Blessings and is made by paper piecing the Unity stamp tree stamp that came in the CKU Giggles set (which was sold only for a limited time). And yes, I individually cut out by hand each of the little circles for the middle tree! I made four sets of this card so that is a total of twenty little circles that I hand cut!! I know, call me CRAZY!!! The sentiment stamp is from Unity's Birdie Inspiration.

The next card is called Thankful Thoughts and it went together really nicely. I simply cut three equal squares to make a grid and them stamped the cute leaves stamp from Recollections where the fourth square would have gone. The sentiment is from Verve Stamps.

This third card was the most time consuming only because of the coloring involved. This adorable stamped image of squirrels and the sentiment are from The Greeting Farm set called Forest Friends. To color these I used my Prismacolor pencils blended with Gamsol. The layout for this card uses sketch SC244 at SCS

And finally the last card in the collection I call Happy Harvest. It is named after the SU sentiment I used that comes in the Loads of Love set. The die cut leave was made with my new Nestability die. I also embossed it and inked it and attached some cool fall fibers for an added touch!

So this whole set I am selling for $12 (plus shipping) which I think is a pretty good deal considering what you can spend at Hallmark for cards that are much plainer. I did get my first sale already when my neighbor and new friend Lisa bought a set from me! Thank you Lisa!!

Wish me luck! I would love to see this be an avenue to supplement my income and allow me to keep new products coming into my craftroom!

Have a wonderful Thursday and may your bucket overflow with new opportunities for you too!

Sweet Santa!

Happy Wednesday!!

I just love my Wednesdays because it is that time of the week that I get to share with you the card I made for the new Sweet Sketch Wednesday sketch that is just released on the SSW blog! This week we are up to sketch number 14!!

The exciting news is that The Digi Shack is sponsoring this week's sketch which means that a prize is in store for one lucky winner who participates in today's challenge!! Can I get a woot woot???? For more details and to see how to enter, please visit the Sweet Sketch Wednesday Blog!

So on to today's sketch...

And here is the card that I made (I know it's a little early for Christmas already, but you have to understand that I am a Santa Clause freak and couldn't pass this digi up!!)

The Santa digi image that I used can be found HERE! The "ho ho ho" sentiment is from a cheap dollar bin set that I think I picked up at Michael's. To make the belt buckle I used one of the letters that is designed to go through a ribbon from Joann's but just made sure that I covered up the letter so all you could see was the frame. The red dotted paper is from K&Co and if you look closely, you can see that I trimmed out the card with tiny strips of gold that are made from Flower Soft and come with adhesive already on them.

Four gold brads were added as accents to the four corners of the image panel and I used my Tiny Mosaic texture plate in my cuttlebug to make the belt have a leather look to it. My circle and scalloped nesties were used to fram the image.

If you look closely you can see that I added white fluff to santa's hat trim and ball and colored his glasses with a gold opaque pen. The rest of him was colored with my Copic markers. Around the beard all I did was add light shades of gray and let the white CS do the rest!

This one is going into my slowly growing collection of Christmas cards that will be sent out this year. I have so many more to do... I better be getting busy very soon!!

Have a really sweet Wednesday and be sure to visit the SSW blog to see all the other Digi Shack creations made using this week's sketch! And may your bucket overflow with sweet things all day!

The Forgotten Project!!

Somehow in all the craziness last month I never posted my Beyond the Card project for last month's SheetLoad of Cards assignment. I was so happy with the end result of this I can't believe I forgot to post it!

Using the sketch from the August Issue of SheetLoad of Cards that you can still download from HERE I created this Picture frame using the Butterfly digistamp from Sweet N Sassy Stamps!

I love how this turned out! (If I don't say so myself!! Ha!) There is something about the contrast between the soft colors of the Basic Grey DP against the stark black frame and trim (Ribbon from Papertrey) that just work well with me! The frame was purchase from Michael's and it is a shadow box style frame with depth to it. I simply covered the layer on top with the DP and then applied my stamped image and sentiment to the lower layer.

The sentiment is one that I created using Word Art in Power Point. The quote I found online and felt it went perfectly with the butterfly stamp. I am happy to share the sentiment with you as soon as I get my regular computer back from the shop. I received a message over the weekend that it is on its way back to Best Buy from the repair location. I hope to have it very soon! I MISS it!!!

I am in the process of opening my own Etsy store and this picture will be available for purchase once I can get it uploaded and ready for sale!

Before you go let me just share with you a little reminder concerning this month's SheetLoad sketch!!

It is time for the monthly Show Us Your SheetLoad challenge over at SheetLoad of Cards!! To be entered to win, all you have to do is create a single, Fall-themed, card that utilizes the sketch from the latest issue.



Head on over there today and find out how you can win one of two gift certificates from the September sponsor - JessicaLynnOriginal!

I Need a Vacation Still!!

Scroll down to the previous post to see who won the Unity Flair Blinkie Contest!!

Remember yesterday how I told you that in one day I had made two vacation cards? Well I wanted to share with you the second card I made. I must be getting really antsy for the vacation I do have planned coming up in October! For the first part of the week while I am off I am going to go nowhere! Then for a long weekend, my family and many of our friends are going to camping!! I can't wait for my vacation! It is going to be fun!!

This card incorporates two of the recent SCS challenges. One is the sketch challenge SC244 from the this week. And the other one is WT234 which was called Sand It. We were supposed to sand our card in some way or use sand on it! I took the opportunity to put some of these adorable beach images from Whimsie Doodles to good use. Shown here are images from the Beach Borders set, the sentiment from the Beach Sentiments set and the sun and clouds (which were used as a mask as I sponged the sky from the Sunny Day collection. To see all of the digistamps available at the WD store, click HERE!

The sand is from MuddPuddles.net and comes with the glue already mixed in! It also comes in tons of colors. The color used here is malibu sand.

I printed out the shovel, bucket, ball and shells twice and popped the second images on top of the first to add depth and make them look like they were submerged in the sand. The images were colored using my Copics. I just love the texture of this sand product and think it is perfect for beachy cards and layouts.

So look at this card and tell me that you don't want to go to Maui or Malibu on a vacation!!!

Have a great weekend and I will be back to post more as time allows. I am working on something kind of exciting that I will share with you soon!!

May your bucket overflow with warm rays from the sun and sand between your toes!!

First Friends with Flair Friday!

Say that five times really fast!! Ha!!

Today is the first day that the fans of Unity are sharing with each other their latest and greatest creations! What used to be the Hip Hop Hangover now has a new name and a new twist!! It's called Friends with Flair Friday and one lucky person is going to win 25 random stamps from Unity for leaving a comment on the blog that has the special Flair Blinkie! Have you found it yet??

I guess I feel like I am in need of a vacation because this is the second card that I have made with that theme in mind!

Using a combination of stamp kits from Unity, I created this card to give to someone going on a tropical vacation...

Unity Stamps used: Circle Grid, Vacation, Palm Tree (Time for Travel); Suitcase stack (Hodge Podge of Happiness.) The DP is the new fall collection from Recollections at Michael's.

ETA: The Winner has been selected and the comments have been disabled!!

Thanks for all the fun comments!!

When I stamped the grid I used the masking technique and stamped using three different SU ink colors (Blue Bayou, Creamy Caramel and Chocolate Chip.) This would be nearly impossible to do without my trust Stamp-a-majig!

The suitcases were colored with Prismacolors and blended with Gamsol. To alter the Vacation sentiment, I decided to replace the letter "T" with the Palm Tree. Again my Stamp-a-majig came in handy here too!

Thanks for taking a look! If you didn't come here by way of the blog lists at the Unity Stamp Co. blog then be sure to start HERE so as not to miss any of the Unity talent that is out there!!

Leave me some love!!

Have a great day and may your bucket overflow with thoughts of a warm sunny vacation on some tropical island!

Haunted Halloween

This card was a very challenging challenge card! LOL! I made it for one of the new challenges on the Unity Stamp forum at SCS (USK01) . Unity has revamped their way of doing things and there are no more Hip Hop Blog hops on Thursdays and the Hip Hop Hangovers (HHH) on Fridays are now Friday Friends with Flair (FFF!) The challenges are changing too and this is the first Kit of the Month challenge!

Jenn asked that we use only the July or August Kits of the Month and that we were to use the colors orange, black, green and purple! I was thinking to myself "Great"!! I love Halloween and I will make a Halloween card which will work perfectly with those colors!

The challenge however came in when I realized that none of the stamps from either of those kits had anything that remotely would work for Halloween. So the thinking cap went on (that was the very challenging part... LOL) and you can see what I came up with! I took the school house stamp from the August KOM and turned it into a Haunted House! Pretty clever huh??

The tree image is also from the August kit. The DP is from K&Co. and the ribbon is from Michael's. The cute metal embellishment for the Happy Halloween sentiment is from the new Recollections line at Michael's. I colored in the houses with my Prismacolor colored pencils and the trees with my Copics. The grassy hill was torn and colored with Copics also! The bat is a sticker that I have had in my collection for a long time!

Thanks for taking a look and have a great day!

May your bucket overflow with all treats and no tricks today!

Masculine but Still Sweet!!

Today is Sweet Sketch Wednesday and it is extra sweet because the DT and I have two card samples to share with you from the same sketch! Arlana over at SSWand the whole DT are so excited because we got a sponsor for this week's sketch. Which means there are FREE stamps at stake!!!



My good friend Joni who is a fellow DT member with me at Whimsie Doodles has also started her own line of digital stamps. Her stamps are as sweet as can be and focus on the family and are very wholesome! Her company is called Inktegrity (love that name!)

Someone is going to win her brand new stamp set called Going Places if they play along with this week's sketch and submit their card on the SSW blog. All the details are provided on today's post.

So here is this week's Sweet Sketch 13...

And here is the card I made using Joni's Inktegrity stamp from the Going Places line...

I decided to make it a masculine yet juvenile card that would be perfect for a young boy. I used the tugboat and sentiment from her Going Places set that was just released. (Edited to add: click HERE to purchase this stamp set!) I printed the image out onto GP cardstock and heat set it before coloring with my Copic markers. The DP is from Dude Designs and is the Walt line. The yellow CS is Bazzill. I free hand drew the water and the seagulls! (Bet ya couldn't tell... Ha!!) The sentiment prints out in the round and is perfect to add a button embellishment to. I love how it mimics a life preserver!

Thanks Joni for letting us use your wonderful stamps!! I am so happy for you and wish your new company well!!




For my second card, I also went masculine, but this time the intended recipient was my future BIL, Claude. I was led to make this card after reading the sentiment from the August KOM at Unity. It fit him to the tee!!

The sentiment says "Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go." Isn't that a cool thought. To realize how perfectly it matches Claude you would have to understand that he has finished the IronMan competition and has also competed in an ultramarathon where the runners run 100 miles!! Isn't that crazy?? At first I told him if he has a desire to run 100 miles then he must by CRAZY and he can't date my sister!! LOL!!

But actually Claude is a wonderful man who adores my sister and I am so happy that they found each other. They will be marrying in January and he is going to be a wonderful BIL to have!

So I can sneak in another picture of my beautiful great niece... here is a picture of Claude holding Ava in the hospital!!

Please head on over to the SSW blog and see all the cards that the DT made this week and read about your chance to win the Going Places stamp set from Inktegrity. I hope you will play along with us at Sweet Sketch Wednesday!

Have a really Sweet day and may your bucket overflow with non-caloric sweetness!!

Look who's on the Cover of the Sept Issue!!

This is the second post for today, so please scroll down to hear about my new great niece and the WD Release today!

Today is the release day of the next Sheetload of Cards eZine. I am so excited because I am a featured artist in this month's issue AND one of the cards I made is on the cover of it! Woo hoo!! I used a JessicaLynnOriginal stamp and the fabulous sketch for the month that was designed by Nicole Anderson.

That's my card!!



It is time for the new issue of SheetLoad of Cards - September 2009 - sponsored by JessicaLynnOriginal!



Head over to the blog today to download your FREE copy and make sure to check back later this month for chances to win prizes from the sponsor.



Here is another view of my card...

The stamp I used is a JessicaLynnOriginal stamp called Brentwood Owl: Ruby as Bea Bee that can be purchased HERE! It was colored with my Copics and then some Sakura Gelly Roller pen sparkles were added to the body of the bee. The DP is from BG and I generated the sentiment using Word Art on my computer. The flowers are from Prima and the ribbon source is unknown!

I altered the sketch slightly by placing the top right hand circle on top of the main image and by cutting out the honeycomb shape making it irregular and not circular. I also repeated that look with the shape around the sentiment.

And here is a closeup of it...

Please head over to the SheetLoad blog, download your copy of the eZine and get to work on making your own SheetLoad of cards! If you make something with this month's sketch, you will be eligible to win some great prizes from this month's sponsor by Showing us your Sheetload or by giving SheetLoad a Shoutout!! Come play along! I will be back soon with some more of my samples to shwo to you!

Have a great day and may your bucket over with the good kind of Buzz that you get from creating wonderful papercrafted projects!!! LOL!!

A Few Things!! Been Crazy Busy!!

Sorry for the late posting today! If you only knew how crazy yesterday was. Thank God that today has slowed down a little!

First of all, my niece had her baby Ava Rae yesterday at 4:57 pm. She weighed 7 pounds, 7 ounces and she is absolutely beautiful! I am so proud of my niece Lindsay for doing such a great job at her delivery and I am so blessed to have been present as my great niece entered this world!

Here are a few photos to share with you from our experience!

Ava Rae, born August 31st, 2009. What a sweet face!

Lindsay, Baby Ava and me!

(I am in scrubs because I work in Labor and Delivery where she was born and had to be on call) It turned out to be a very busy day! I guess a lot of little ones wanted in the world yesterday!

Great Aunt Kelly got to give the first bath!! Oh how special!!

Bear with me while I try to get back on track from a very long day yesterday! I am in desperate need of some computer and creating time! Hopefully things will settle down a bit very soon!

On a quick note, I want to remind you that today is the day that Whimsie Doodles is releasing it's newest digistamp set called Have a Seat. So be sure to stop by the WD blog or Etsy store today and get yours ordered!
