Hello there crafty friend!!!
I am so excited for the first EVER Build Your Stash Holiday Hop... our Christmas in July 2020 Hop!! Woohoo!! I hope you all are excited too!
I hope to share Holiday inspiration either here or on my Instagram throughout the entire hop... fingers crossed that life doesn't get in the way of the crafty fun!!
Today, I have a really fun card using two fabulous new releases from Unity Stamp Co.!!!
HA!! Isn't that just the cutest?! When I saw both of these fabulous sets... the One Scoop at a Time and Love Into Giving stamps... I just knew I HAD to put them together!!
I love how this turned out!
Here's a list of the Copic markers I used:
Snowman ~ C00, C1, C2, YR15, YR16, YR21, N0, N2, N4
Hat/Scarf ~ BG000, BG01, BG13, RV10, RV11, RV23
Cone ~ E23, E25, E27, E30
I ran the Tim Holtz Simple Snowflakes embossing folder with a piece of white card stock through my big shot. I trimmed it down to 4-1/8 x 5-3/8". I then die cut the pretty pink and turquoise Plaid Patterns Merry & Bright paper from My Favorite Things through my big shot with a stitched border die. I trimmed the ends down and adhered it to the white embossed layer and then adhered the entire panel to an A2 top-fold white card base.
I cut along the inside of the ice cream cone on both sides, just enough so that Mr. Snowman could sit inside the cone. I adhered both images together and then adhered it to the card. I trimmed the Sweet Friend sentiment from the One Scoop at a Time set and popped it up on the card. And then I had to search for a Merry Christmas sentiment and remembered this one from the Old Traditions set that I used recently... so I stamped it, trimmed it and also popped it up on the card with foam tape. It makes my heart so happy when a card comes together as I envisioned.
Unity Stamp Co. is a Sponsor of this fun Christmas in July 2020 Hop!!
I am so blessed to be a part of the design team for this fabulous company and I'm always so touched by the generosity of the owner, Angela Magnuson! I came to her with my crazy idea to start this new hop and she was quick to say yes to being a Sponsor! Thank you Angela and the team at Unity!!

I have my very own little giveaway to share. I have a little Christmas bundle of Unity products that I'll be giving away to one lucky winner from the comments on THIS blog post. I'll choose and announce the winner here on my blog on August 3rd.
