Hip Hop Hangover.............

Just a quick post to put up my Hangover card. Hip Hop hangover that is. We chat until late in the night and then pay for it the next day :). Anyhoo, this is one of Unity's Giggle Grove trees dolled up with some snowflakes. The snowflakes are from the SU Snow Flurries set and the sentiment is from PTI. If you need more deets, let me know. Thanks for looking!!

Unity Challenge Wednesday.......

It is Wednesday again!! This weeks challenge was set up by Cyndi. Her HOPE challenge involved using "hope", pink, ribbon, and an "m" embellishment for mamogram! October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. My card is really simple - stamped a few of the wish sticks from my Unity Wish Kit. I used mini buttons with some pink floss on the centers of the wish sticks stamped.
That's it. Gotta go for now - see you on Thursday for Hip Hoppin!!

Gift Bags

Aren't these cute?? I tried my hand at the 2,4,6,8, boxes that I've seen all over the place. I used my Versamark Watermark pad and stamped images on the Kraft cardstock before cutting and scoring. The snowflake and flower are both from a couple Unity Stamp Kits I have. I used my scallop edge punch from SU that I just got to add something to the top of the boxes. I used the same images and stamped some matching tissue paper. Then I stamped a little sentiment from my PTI sentiment set and tied it on to the top. That's it. These are super easy and are great for little gifts like earrings or neclaces, etc. Sorry for the quick post - Thanks for looking - back tomorrow with Unity Wednesday Challenge!!

Twilight Challenge

Angela at Unity Stamps has put up a Twilight Challenge over on SCS. (It is her fault that so many of us are hooked on these books.) :) We are to design a card or scrapbook page based on the "Twilight" series book covers. I took the red and black and made a simple card using sentiments (from a couple of different Unity sets) that are expressed through out the series. It is a romantic thriller for sure! If you know what I'm talking about, check out the challenge and put a card together!
Now, if you have no idea what Twilight is, you had better get on it!! This series of books is amazing!! I am personally almost finished with the third book -"Eclipse" and will be moving on to #4 by the weekend. The movie for "Twilight" is coming out Nov. 21st! Can't wait!!

Kissing Ball

I totally cased the great Jennifer Buck on this one! This stamp is from the Unity Tiny Trinity Kit, and Jennifer turned it upsided down for a holiday card a while back. I knew when I saw her card that I had to case it! It is a very simple card - like most of mine are. Whisper White, Bravo Burgundy, and Handsome Hunter. The sentiment is from a Stampendous set I have that I had not used yet. I thought it fit this perfectly! Thanks for looking.

Simple Life

This was my submission for the SCS Sketch Challenge this week. I worked this card around my Unity Wish set and went with a 5x7 size again. This set of stamps is big, I love it! I'm on a kraft kick this week. You can match so much with it and I just got a package of it from a recent SU order.......Just a quick post - it's Hip Hop Thursday and there's lots of chatting going on.

Combined Challenges / Unity Challenge Wednesday

Amber has offered up a Unity Sketch Challenge this week with the awesome sketch above. It is also time for Unity Wednesday Challenge and Lori's "recipie" is for ribbon, something clear, and a recent Unity stamp purchase. I've combined them and came up with this card below. The quote and butterfly are from my Unity October Kit of the Month that came in the mail last week!! I used SU Kraft, Baja Breeze, Apricot Appeal, and Very Vanilla cardstock. The designer paper is from the SU Holiday Treasures Pack. Added some clear dew drops and ribbon, with a little bit of glitter on the quote. Thanks for looking!! Don't forget to stop by the Unity Forum on Thursday for Hip Hop!!

More whimsical trees....

Used my whimsical tree stamp from Unity again and paper-pieced more SU designer paper to alter a Ball jar I had hanging around. Nothin' in it yet, but would be good for candy or even some homemade hot cocoa! It really isn't anything fancy, but not too bad for my first attempt at it. I really love this stamp - so much potential!
Jennifer Buck is giving away some blog candy if you link up a holiday creation on her blog. I'm going to link this one up and hope I win that super awesome stuff she is giving away!
Have a great night and thanks for looking!!

Whimsical Trees


Got a little stamping time in on Friday night and am just getting around to posting the photos. I've been wanting to use my Unity single Whimsical Trees. This stamp is huge! So you get the idea how big it is, this is a 5x7 card and the stamp just about fills it. I paper-pierced the trees using the new holiday designer paper I just got from Stampin' Up! It is one of the new paper sets - Holiday Treasures. The "snow" is just some white glitter I had lying around. I like how this stamp pieces and will probably be making some more of these with some of the other DP I have.

Give me a shout if you are interested in purchasing any SU holiday stuff. They've got some pretty holiday papers, embellishments, etc. There is still plenty of time to order and have it here in time to create some holiday treats or cards!!
