Pure Innocence Valentine

Hello Stampers,
Today I am sharing a card with you that I made for some challenges, the sketch I used is from the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.
This is the 1st time I have done this challenge and I thought it was a great sketch. Here is my card.....


I was so excited to find that you can get some of the Pure Innocence stamps as Digis, I just happened upon a blog where someone had used one for a card. Here is where you can find them, they are made by Heather Ellis. I think they are all JUST SO ADORABLE, it is very hard to pick, but I really liked this one for my cards.

Hello H{ippity} Hoppers

Happy Monday to you, hope you have a nice week ahead.

Today I have another Valentine card to share with you. I know the {ippity} challenge is a birthday card but right now I have my valentine supplies out. My crafting stuff is pretty unorganized and I didn't want to make it worse....I have enough to reorganize as it is. When I started with this card I had a different vision in mind. I wanted a collage type card with an {ippity}/Unity heart tree. Which is what this is, yet I am not very happy with the results. To me it looks more like a card made by a child, oh well. Next time will be much better. Sometimes my crafts mirror how I am feeling and lately my health problems have been REALLY bad. I'm sure checking out all of the H{ippity} Hopping blogs today will help me get my mojo back(I REALLY HOPE!!!).

All of the stamps here are from Unity or {ippity}. The background is Hearts of old, the tree is from Giggle Grove...the original set, wood mounted. The sentiment and small hearts on branches are from Love Grows. The heart on top of the tree is from you + me= happy, and the two hearts on both sides of the tree are cut out from the heart in the {ippity} set Life's Little Moments. Here is how it turned out.....

Supplies
Papers and Embellishments-Making Memories Love Story
Ink- Memento and Brilliance
Cutting Dies-Spellbinders
Ribbon-Close To My Heart
Border Punch- Fiskars
Stickles

Today I will be working on something MUCH BETTER, thanks so much for coming to visit today -Jodi

Fluttering By with Unity Friends with FLAIR!!!

Welcome and HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

Hello to my Unity Friends and also to any new friends from Flutter By Wednesday, this is my 1st project for their wonderful challenge blog. I used an image and sentiment from Unity's January KOTM ...savor the journey. There are so many wonderful stamps in this kit it's hard to pick what to use. So, I actually picked my papers 1st, which I usually don't do, and went from there. Then, I realized these papers had some beautiful butterflies, and I have been wanting to join in at Flutter By Wednesday. Here is what I came up with.


I have been feeling just a little bit slow lately, so I had to use this sentiment, I love it with the snail and mushrooms!!!

Supplies used
Making Memories Flower Patch Line - papers, ribbon, journal page, butterfly
Martha Stewart - border punch
Prima - flowers
Stickles
Unity - stamps and ink
Copics - color for image
Spellbinders- die cuts
buttons and pearls from craft supply

Thank you for coming to see my creation today, I hope you have a GREAT and RELAXING weekend!!!

1.29.10 Unity Friends With Flair

Hello an Happy Friday!!! Welcome all the friends with stampin FLAIR brought to you By Unity Stamp Co. I have 2 cards to share today. Both of my cards use the very popular My Mind's Eye Be Loved paper line along with coordinating cardstock from Prism.

My 1st card is from a sketch I found on Splitcoast Stampers. I used stamps from 2 different Unity sets. The flower and flower pot are from the Treasure To Me set and the sentiment is from Best Wishes & Blooms. I LOVE these sets, there are so many different options with them and even more when you mix & match!!!
The 2nd card has 2 stamps from different sets also. The floral image is from the Dec KOTM Delightful Moments and the sentiment is from Spring Unity. Here I used some Spellbinders dies, a Martha Stewart border punch and some stickles to add just a little sparkle.



THANK YOU for stopping by today, don't forget to go to all the blogs listed on the Unity blog so that you can find a special blinkie on one of them and possibly win 25 Unity stamps. Hope you have an awesome weekend!!

I want to take the time to say how much I LOVE checking out all of your creations on Fridays as they are always full of inspiration. Thank you to those of you that stop by to visit my little space here and it's so nice to read your comments!!

I made two cards this week with leftovers from a card kit I got from Create My Keepsake last year. Unfortunately they are no longer in business, I LOVED their kits. My first card uses the flower stamp from Unity's hodge podge of happiness set and my second card uses their serenity tree.

IF you haven't stopped by Unity yet you REALLY should to check out a GREAT sale Angela has this weekend!! You can click on any of my Unity blinkies to the right to get there. You should also check out their design team blogs from yesterday, their creations are always AMAZING!!!

This weekend we will be celebrating both my birthday (it was a biggie on wed) and my daughters 9th which is Tuesday. My mom is coming to visit and SHOP for an upcoming trip to New York City to visit my brother for Thanksgiving. Anyone who has been there OR lives close let me know if there is something we shouldn't miss. We already have reservations at American Girl for lunch one day, I may be just as or more excited for that than my daughter!!

THANKS for coming to visit me today and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Unity Friends with Flair

Hello and happy Friday, thanks for stopping by today. Hope some of you are having nice weather where ever you are because it has been horrible here....rainy,cold,windy, YUCK!!! Today I made a winter card using Unity's stamp Trinity Trio from last year. I really like this tree stamp and used it quite a bit last year. Patterned papers and die cut snowflake are from My Minds Eye Colorful Christmas collection. The card didn't turn out quite like I wanted but I didn't have time for another. Hope you have a great weekend and Happy Halloween!!!

HAPPY UNITY HOLIDAY HIP HOP HANGOVER

Happy Holidays to all of you!!! I hope none of you are quite as snowed in as we are here. Be sure to check out all of the great deals at UNITY by clicking on the link to the right.
Here I am on another Friday using the same great snowman stamp by Lisa Hetrick.....I must really like it. I received my Dec KOTM yesterday and just had to use these cute mittens, I just love how they look on the kraft card stamped in white pigment based dye ink. Then, of course, the snow man needed a little stickles bling.



These next two cards also stick with my theme of being snowed in today. I used my nestabilities to cut the shapes. They both have the UNITY snowflake stamp from the Sept KOTM friendship, love, miracles. Then the last card uses the UNITY trees trinity trio stamp. The backgrounds use the same white ink as the first card and the main images are both embossed with a mixture of silver and white spark embossing powder from Sparkle and Sprinkle. TFL!! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!

More UNITY STAMP CO. Hip Hop Hangover!

Here is an acrylic ornament I made with the Unity Stamp Snowone like you. This stamp set was made by the very talented Stamp Artist Lisa Hetrick. I used stazon ink in Ultramarine and some Icicle Stickles on the opposite side to add some "snow bling".
