wednesday March 21 GUI

Will this winter weather ever stop?!? Mother Nature please find your happy place and be inspired by these clean and simple floral cards. I used the set “Done in love” by Angie Blom and Lisa Ariana.
I’ve colored the pansy’s differently in each card to match the patterned paper. Colored pencils and markers were combined for this look.  I will wait to put a sentiment inside until I go to send this out. It would make a great Thankyou or birthday card.
I also added a few sequins for bling. Of course I used my special customer Magnuson stamp for the back again, but you don't need a picture of that three days in a row. I am going to get another custom address stamp for the outside of my envelopes very soon.

First Day of Spring GUI March 20, 2018

Hello Unity Stampers!
  Happy Spring, even if you are still blanketed with snow and freezing in 20 degree temperatures as I am in Central NY. Today I have two fun Easter/ Spring cards. The first is a shaker card made with the set”Good Days” designed by Tierra Jackson.

I used the outside from a die cut to make my mint green frame.  Stampin up foam adhesive strips are perfect to make shaker cards. I glued the window plastic to the mint green frame and then put the adhesive on the edge of the colored bunny image. I added multi colored sequins and sealed the two together. The double sided foam adhesive strips made this so easy! The image is colored with my favorite colored pencils. For a sentiment inside I used the kit "Everything Easter" by Lisa Arana.
This sentiment kit has basic Easter, spring and religious Easter stamps. It is my go to Easter card making sentiment kit.
I also made a clean and simple sparkly bunny card from the kit "Let's be Happy" by Angie Blom.
A Dark blue base with a layer of silver glitter paper are a great compliment to this sweet bunny image. I used a combination of markers and colored pencils on this card. Please comment below so I can put your name in the drawing to win the prize pack from Unity.

sheepishly sweet March 19 GUI


Here is my clean and simple card using the set " Sheepishly Sweet" by Phyllis Harris.
I used Stampin Up Daisy designer series paper with a coral mat. He is colored with both markers and colored pencils. This is a great card to wait until you need to send it before putting a sentiment inside.   On the back I had to use my custom stamp.

I like to color the center so it coordinates with the front and stands out a little more.  Phyllis Harris is one of my favorite stamp designers and I have quite a collection. They are images that just pull a smile and a happy thought.  I have used these stamps on all kinds of cards, tiles, wall art and candles.
I hope you comment below so I can put your name in a drawing to win a free bag of stamps from Unity. What an awesome prize this is!  Stop back all week for more fun.
