Impression Obsession: Clean and Simple Challenge (Easter's on its Way!)

I had some time extra card making time this week and decided to use this cute little stamp set from Impression Obsession and play along with their current challenge - clean and simple.

Here is my card:


Supplies Used:

Impression Obessesion: Easter Basket stamp set.
Lawn Fawn Inks: Grape Soda/Minty Fresh/Ballet Slippers/Celery Stick/Butter
Twine
White Cardstock
My Little Paper World Sequins
MISTI
Sewing Machine
Paper Trimmer
Tape Runner/Glue Dots

This set had so many stamping options that I couldn't stop at just one card. I created an addition three cards (not so clean - but definitely simple) that you can view below.



Stamping the bunnies above was fun but...not as much fun as stamping the eggs! See card below.

I love the option of an outline and a block stamp - so many options in terms of stamping, or even colouring. For this card I used the same ink colours to create rows of eggs, highlighting one egg in each row by using the block stamp as well as the outline. 




The card below is slightly different to the stamped card above - here I decided to add bright corrugated card that coordinated with the Lawn Fawn ink. It's my favourite card out of the four - I really like grid (layout) cards at the moment and the bunnies pocking out of the 'peep' holes/windows are a fun idea.

Which one is your favourite? 

 


Happy Crafting and have a great weekend (Whoohoo! - long weekend if you in Australia!)

Growing in Unity: Day 1

Image
Yippee!! After waiting 11 months, 10 days, it's finally my week to share my Unity cards. 5 whole days of inspiration is coming your way...oh! and lets not forget the sponsored giveaway by Unity at the end of my week - a grab bag with 25 random stamps! My first card I decided to use one of my favourite sets - I actually combined two (no, three!) Unity sets that really go well together. How do you use your Unity stamps? Would you mix and match them? When I first starting stamping (15 years ago) the thought of mixing sets would make me cringe - but now... no problems! I think it's a great way to make the most of your stamp collection. Here are my cards using Unity: Tumbleweed Houses , On My Way and Gypsy Journal (sentiment only) I coloured the images using a few of my ZIG brush pens and cut them out with my silhouette (for those who are visiting me for the first time - I try to avoid fussy cutting!) I added a few sewing machine details and adhered the hous...

A Super Quick Card!

Just sharing another card I made (with the help of master 2 1/2yo). Stamp is unity -  Vase with stripes.  C oloured with prisma pencils and gamsol. A super quick card to make as master 2 1/2yo did most of the work. I just added some washi tape, sequins, twine and a stamp I coloured in during the week (for practice)  :) Entered into  ARTastic Inspiration Photo Challenge . Link to Unity Friends with Flair.

A Spring Inspired Card...

Image
This week (or should I say the last few weeks) have been super crazy busy! We got good news, my Hubby renewed his work contract with the option to move back home to Adelaide (which of course we jumped at!) So...we are now packing our belongings in to boxes and the worst room is...come on! have a guess! :) Yup!! My craft room... But its mostly packed up, with the exception of a few stamps, paper packs, a handful of embellishments and my copic markers.  Last week, in between all the craft room packing (I got distracted a few times!) I created this card, its from Unity's ...bunches of love stamps. I decided to make a few, I hate having left over paper, so I tend to create a card (generally for someone's birthday coming up) and then duplicate it so I have a stash of cards for those occasions you forget someones birthday coming up!  This was the perfect stamp set to do this! While stamping, I wished I had that misti tool Ive seen a few times now through youtube videos,...
