Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger: Pretty Little Petits Fours

Hi! Yep. I did it. Blogged twice in one day. Alert the media.

I got some down time tonight to create for a fun challenge, Moxie Fab World's Tuesday Trigger. The challenge this week:

Those almost look too pretty to eat! Here is my take on the challenge.

I used some of my new Lil Inker dies, love these stitched things! I used Unity Stamps and Tim Holtz Distress Markers on watercolor paper for the flowers.

Hope you enjoyed your Saturday!

Puffy Heart You.

Helllllllllooooooo friends! Happy Friday. Yes indeedy.

Here today posting a card I made for Unity's Friends with Flair Friday. Go link up your Unity projects with me, will you? Prizes being given. Just sayin.

I LOVE this panda in this month's kit. And this sentiment. Perfect.

Thursday Unity Hop: new Phyllis Harris in da house!

YAY! I love Phyllis Harris releases. All of them. Always. What do you guys think? Pretty adorable, huh. I haven't had a chance to ink up that giraffe, but it will be happening at some point in the very near future. He is just adorable.

I did however, get a chance to create two cards. Today, I used the same technique on both - Prismacolor Colored Pencils with a blender. Love mixing up my coloring techniques!

And {gasp} another horse image! LOVE LOVE LOVE.

It's always so nice to be able to take a little me time to color these beautiful images from Phyllis Harris. It's therapeutic, I tell you! Have a GREAT Thursday....don't forget the sale.

Next along the hop is.....Jolande!

Heyyyyyy crafty peeps! Today is Thursday. That means it's hoppin day at Unity Stamp Company. We have a bunch of exciting stuff happening today so pay attention! {there will be a quiz later...errr I mean PRIZES...}

First, there are NEW Phyllis Harris releases. You know her from Highlights Magazine, and her girls are just beautiful. On top of the new releases, ALL Phyllis Harris stamps are 40% off!!! Um, yes please.

Here is the card I created with Let Love Fly set. I love that her sets are so simple. It just takes some coloring and the card is basically done because the images are just so beautiful standing alone.

Next, we have a NEW monthly challenge starting today. Check out the new sentiment kit you can grab for $10 this month, love those roses!

There is a color inspiration and a card sketch you can use, whichever one inspires you. I used the sketch and the color coral from the color inspiration:

To create this card, I used this month's Kit of the Month You Are Simply The Best. Just LOVE the ikat trend going on right now.

Unity Stamp of the Week cards.

WHOOPS! I totally forgot to post my past few Unity Stamp of the Week cards on my blog. So, time for a quick catch-up post.

For this card, I used Glitz Design's Unchartered Waters stack (looooove) and You Are My Anchor. Love the anchor trend right now.

Next, I used Hip Hip Hooray for this sentiment only card. The chevron makes the card pop and I wanted to add a little pop of color with a few red enamel dots. Love those things right now!

Okay, that's it! Quick and easy post today :) See you back here tomorrow for Unity's hop! 

Unity's FWF Friday! HAWG.

Hi friends! Comin atcha this morning with a card I made {just this morning!} for Unity's Friends with Flair Friday! WHOOP.

I bought this awesome Hawg set a few weeks ago and just got it out to play with. Isn't it fun? Oh, it's also on sale this weekend for $18. Better check it out. The sentiment is from Mix Up of Cuteness which is ALSO on sale! Sales are good.

I hope everyone has a FABULOUS weekend with crafty time included :)

****I also totally forgot to post the winner of the Made with Love Blog Hop. The winners were announced on the Facebook event page, so I kind of overlooked posting it to my blog, I apologize! The winner was Deanne @ Three Trees!!!!

Hoppin with Unity: embossed photo booth.

Hi friends! Hoppin with Unity...it's a fun place to be...

I created a card with the current KOTM, Let Love Grow. The phone booth, the sentiment and the diamonds are ALL from this kit. I absolutely love how you can mix and match all the elements from each monthly kit - it's totally up to your imagination on how you create with them.

I used Zing Rouge embossing powder to really make the photo booth pop. The wood veneers are currently my fave embellishment addiction {as you can see} - the triangle went so well with the stamp! It's the little things. {Literally.}

Be sure to head over to the Unity website to check out what's happening this Thursday, including some fun new releases and an Itty Bitty sale! 

I'm the last one on the hop today, so you can head back over to the Unity blog to check out all the details on the sale to get your SHOP on.

Moxie Fab World: Tuesday Trigger

Hello people! I had a bit of down time this afternoon to play with Moxie Fab World's Tuesday Trigger. YAY! Here is the trigger:

My style? Not so much. I am a brights girl. I do lots of colors. WOAH...challenging, yes.

Here is what I came up with. 

I didn't have a fork / knife / spoon stamp, so I found this cute little set in Silhouette Studio. I used Unity's Blossom Stackers, LOTS copper embossing powder, copper paint and copper ribbon.  Kinda fun after all! You should come over and join!

Thanks for stoppin by...have a great WEEK!
