A few trees for the Unscripted Sketch #228

A few trees!!!  This stamp came in a bunch of stamps from Unity Stamp Co.  I stamped all but one in blue inks.  I set them on some silver snowflakeribbon.  I love this sweet little stamp and glad I could use it for Unscripted Sketches challenge this week.

Just Skating by with the Deconstructed Sketch!!

Using my Unity Stamp, Just Skating By - Snowpeep Kurt and used this week's sketch from the Deconstructed Sketch #124.  I used one of my cuttlbug folders of snowflakes and inked a little dark blue on the side, I then used some Christmas paper and red paper to set the image on.  The sentiment is from Unity Stamp, One of a kind Winter.    I used my SU Chalk marker to add some little doodles on the red paper.  I tied some baker's twine and added the snowflakes and brad from my stash.

Snow from Heaven

I think snowmen are so sweet and this one is from Unity Stamp Co. and is called Snow Angels Above, Snow Peep Issac.  I used my copics to color him in and used White Flowersoft on the rim and ball of his hat and then for the clouds.  I used a gold pen to go around the image paper edge and added a little on his halo and wings too.  I used the SU cloud follder for the background and used some blue ink to make the clouds pop a little more.  I used white chalk ink for the sentiment.  The snowflakes and ribbon are from my stash.  I am planning on entering this card in  Unity's Friends With Flair.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    

Deconstructed Sketch #123

I am slowly starting to do challenges again and I really like the sketch at Deconstructed Sketch this last week.  I used Just Skating by Snow Peep Kurt  from Unity Stamp Company and colored him with my copics.  I used paper from Winter Blues by Whimsy Stamps and the flowers are Aqua Wild Mini Blossoms by Petaloo.

Spooky Little Kitty Cat!!

A little spooky black cat.  I think this little black kitty with the Witch's hat is so darn cute.  She is from Lawn Fawn's Critters in Costume.  I colored her in with my Copics, punched some leafs out using Impression Obsession die, the large bread tag is from  Stampin' Up's Chalk Talk dies.  I used some funky spider web and spider paper that I have had in my fall paper stash and some swirly funky ribbon.  I stamped the sentiment, also from Lawn Fawn Critters in Costume set, in white ink.  I am entering this in this weeks Cute Card Thursday Spooktacular challenge.

Cute Card Thursday challenge

I made this Halloween card using Lawn Fawn's Critters in Costumes.  The cat and bear were cut out and then I used glitter on the bears wings and put glossy accents at the top of the bee thingies (hehe)   I stamped the candy and colored them in, then popped the bear and cat up on pop dots.  I am adding this to Cute Card Thursday's Candyman challenge.

Small Stuff Christmas.

I love to use blues and silvers for my Christmas cards.  I don't usually use the traditional red and green and I am not sure why.  When I got this sweet SOTW Small stuff Christmas, I grabbed some blue papers, blue inks and silver spray and off I went. Of course the SOTW is from Unity Stamp Co. and I am entering it in this weeks Unity's Friends with Flair.

You say witch like it's a bad thing.

I love this stamp, You say witch like it's a bad thing, from Unity Stamp Co.  I used my copics to color the hat image and then a SU die to cut the bread tag, I added some fancy fuzzy ribbon around the tag, then pop dotted the hat on top.  I stamped the sentiment with a Kaleidacolor Royal Satin stamp pad.  I am going to enter it in the challenge at Ribbon Carousel that you can find here, Halloween Challenge.

A little Halloween with my new Lawn Fawn stamps and dies.

I have been having so much fun making Halloween cards.  I went to a demo using Lawn Fawn stamps and the dies that go with them.  Of course I left my lss with  Critters in Costumes stamp set and the matching dies.  I also got a few of their papers to use.  I made this card last night using the patterned paper from the Into the Wood collection, the bag and puppy are popped up on pop dots. I used my Chalk pen to add the sentiment and lines and dots.

And since I have found Lawn Fawn, I have found a challenge blog using them, Lawnscaping , so I am going to enter their challenge.

Thank you Deer!!!

I needed a manly thank you card and I used this stamp, What the Buck, stamped with brown ink and colored with my watercolor pencils.  I layered it onto some trees that I cut out with borrowed dies (Thanks Nana) and a swirly cuttlebug folder, I added some jute string too.  I am trying to get back into challenges so I am entering this in the challenge at 2 Sisters Challenge Blog.

Just getting a little older. . . . . . .

I love Unity Stamp Co. in case you haven't noticed!!  I got this set, Gossip, Hot-Flashes & Crazy.  I love the sayings that go with and the images.  I used the background color because I just liked it yesterday.  I didn't have any flowers to add to it, so I took all the pieces to my local stamp store and found this great colored flower.  I used my colored pencils and inks to make it look a little older and some lace from my moms stuff to add to it.

I am also going to link this to Unity's Friends with Flair!

So Thankful for you.

I have to say that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month but every day Cancer affects all of us in one way or another.  Both my parents died from cancer, my bestest friend, Katie Emerson Renz passed away almost two years ago from Gastrointestional cancer, my favorite aunt on my dad's side in January, a life time neighbor just two weeks ago and my favorite aunt on my mom's side is fighting cancer and slowly losing her battle, thankfully she is not in any pain.  I made this card to send to her because I am so thankful for her.

I used the new SU Thinlets Label Card die to make my card base, added some orange dotted paper to the left side of it.  I stamped some pumpkin images in versamark on the green, the pumpkin Blossoms were colored and cut out and the sentiment was cut out using SU Labels Collection dies and stamped and color added around the edge.

Where did summer go??

We have been so busy around here that the summer just went by fast and I let my blog sit still and rest!!  But I am back.  I have been having so much fun learning new things this summer.  I got to spend my Wednesday's at our local stamp store, Stampadoodle, going to their lunch time demo's with some awesome friends.  I also kept getting Unity Stamps stamp of the week which I love, love, love.

Last week Unity had some great stamps, so I ordered some :)  One I ordered was Sassy Boots with a Melody.  And this week, I actually made a card using them.  So here is my card for Unity's blog Friends With Flair Fridays.
