Unity Advent Calendar 2024 Day 23 ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

It's Day 23 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!! I can't believe we are almost finished with the advent calendar AND it's almost Christmas Day!

Today's little door had some cute wooden tree embellishments. I stamped the sentiment with Black Amalgam ink. I die cut my circle layers using dies from the Scallops & Circles {nesting dies}. 

You can check out my video revealing the Advent Calendar Day 23 embellishment and my process in making this card here... Unity Advent Calendar 2024 Day 23 | Unity Stamp Co.

Inspiration for my card came from the {BYSHC} Sketch 46! This simple sketch is so fun!

So excited to add a couple more holiday cards to my stash for next year! I added a little color to this tree with Shabby Shutters, Rustic Wilderness, and Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I added a piece of red card stock behind the tree to add some color to the 'ornaments'.

I paired up the wood tree embellishment with the Watercolor Tidings {paper pack}. The sweet sentiment is from the Cozy Vibes Owl stamps.

I'll be back tomorrow for the final Day 24 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!

Have an inkredible day!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

 

Inky Hugs,

Unity Advent Calendar 2024 Day 11 ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

It's Day 11 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!! Another fun holiday card to share today. Though I think this cute tree stamp could be used for any occasion.

I just love today's stamp. It's so cute! I stamped it with Vintage Photo, Mowed Lawn, and Forest Moss Distress Inks.

You can check out my video revealing the Advent Calendar Day 11 stamp and my process in making this card here... Unity Advent Calendar 2024 Day 11 | Unity Stamp Co.

Inspiration for my card came from the {BYSHC} Sketch 26! Another great sketch with fun layers!

I die cut the tree using a die from the Scallops & Circles{nesting dies}. Distressed the edges lightly with a blending brush. And popped it up with foam tape. 

I paired up the ornament with the Watercolor Tidings {paper pack}. I finished up the card with a sweet sentiment from the Christmas cut apart sheet that I received as a freebie from my Brown Thursday order. So perfect with these papers!

I'll be back tomorrow for Day 12 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!

Have an ink-tastic day!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Paws Challenge #235 ~ Year End Cards Theme Challenge {Week 1}

 Hello there crafty friend!

Who's up for a new challenge?! It's time to get our paws inky with a fun theme challenge! I'm excited to see the variations of card entries for this challenge! You have until Friday, December 20th to get your entries in for the #235 Year End Cards Theme Challenge and a chance to win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs!

Inky Paws Challenge #235 - Year End Cards Theme Challenge

This will be a fun challenge! For my first card, I've created a Christmas card.

I used the adorable Cat Christmas Tree Stamp Set for my first card for this challenge. I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it up with Copic markers. It's die cut using the coordinating Cat Christmas Tree Die Set. 

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used to color up the stamps:

Star: Y11, Y15

Christmas Lights: YG11, G24, B0000, B00, Y11, Y15, R20, R14

Cool Gray Cats: C00, C1, C3

Neutral Gray Cats: N0, N2, N4, N5

Orange Cats: YR21, YR15

Green Ornament: YG11, G24, G46

Red Ornament: R20, R14, R27

I paired up the cute cat Christmas tree with pretty papers from the Christmas Time 6x6 Paper Pad. I die cut the scraps of pattern paper using the A2 Card Layout Die Set. I also die cut a piece of True Black card stock from Papertrey Ink for the frame. The middle piece of pattern paper with the wreaths is actually a smaller piece of paper that didn't fill the space, but I covered up the opening with the cat tree.

I adhered all the layers to a white A2 top fold card base that I turned on its side for a landscape card. I die cut a banner of white card stock using the banner die from the Frames & Flags Die Set. And then I stamped the sentiment using the same black ink.

Now it's your turn to get your paws inky with your Newton's Nook Designs products and create a project using this fun theme. Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge! Can't wait to see your projects!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,

Crystal
