Advent Calendar 2025 Day 14 ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

It's Day 14 of the 2025 Advent Calendar from Unity!! I'm back with a bright and fun card. This is a fabulous design for a quick card.

Today's stamp is a wonderful sentiment. So fun! I stamped it with Picked Raspberry Distress ink.

You can check out my video revealing the Advent Calendar Day 14 stamp and my process in making this card here... Unity Advent Calendar 2025 Day 14 | Unity Stamp Co.

Inspiration for my card came from the Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Sketch 27! This is a great sketch for pattern paper scraps.

I die cut the sentiment using a die from the Scallops & Circles{nesting dies}. Popped it up on the card using foam tape.

I paired up the sentiment with the Sun's Out, Sass Out {paper pack}. I love how bright and fun this card turned out!

I'll be back tomorrow for Day 15 of the 2025 Advent Calendar from Unity!

Have an INKtastic day!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

{BYSHC} Sketch Challenge 64 ~ Sammi Skater Bear ~ Digi Doodle Studios

Hello there crafty friend!

I'm back with a little inspiration for the {BYSHC} Sketch Challenge 64 hosted in the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Facebook group! Today I'm sharing a sweet Christmas card featuring an adorable digital stamp set from our amazing Sponsor Digi Doodle Studios! This month's prize is a $25 gift card to Digi Doodle Studios! Yay! AND you can use code HOLIDAY25 for 25% OFF sitewide for the entire month of December!!

I inserted the adorable Sammi Skater Bear in a Word Document and printed him off onto white card stock. I colored him up with Copic markers and fussy cut him leaving a white border around the edges. And then I set him aside to put together my background.

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:

Bear: E000, E00, E21, E23, E25, R00, R20, N0, N2, N4

Reds: R20, R14

Greens: YG91, YG95, G99

White Shadows: C0, C2

I paired up this adorable bear with the awesome Gentle Winter 6x6 Paper Pad, also from Digi Doodle Studios. I love the rich colors in these papers.

I adhered my pattern paper to a white mat and then adhered that panel to a 5-1/2 x 4-1/4" piece of the green pattern paper. I then adhered the panel to a white A2 top fold card base that I turned on the side for a landscape card. I found a cute sentiment from the Christmas Tree Lot digi stamp set from Angie Blom Digital Designs. I printed it off, trimmed it, and adhered it to the card. I popped up the bear with some foam tape to finish this one off.

Here's a look at {BYSHC} Sketch Challenge 64 for the month of December. If you're interested in seeing a bunch more inspiration for this sketch, check out the amazing inspiration from the design team over on the {BYSH} Cardmakers blog!

Membership Wednesday ~ Advent Calendar 2025 Day 10 ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

It's Day 10 of the 2025 Advent Calendar from Unity!! It's also Membership Wednesday so... I thought I'd have a bit of fun and use the awesome new Whit Kit along with today's advent stamp.

Whatcha think?! I think it's a fun mash-up! I stamped the pretty thank you heart with Aged Mahogany Distress Ink. I think the color compliments the colors in the pretty papers.

You can check out my video revealing the Advent Calendar Day 10 stamp and my process in making this card here... Unity Advent Calendar 2025 Day 10 | Unity Stamp Co.

A closer look at {BYSHC} Sketch 16! This is a fun sketch with lots of layers! I omitted a couple for my design and turned the tag a bit. 

I stamped the fella from the Attaboy stamps. I colored him up with Copic markers and the Aged Mahogany Distress Ink. Copics used: E000, E00, E11.

I paired up the pretty heart with the Enveloped in Love {paper pack}. The black tag was die cut using a die from the Make a Tag {die set}. I added a bit of burlap ribbon to the top and secured it with a mini stapler from Tim Holtz.

I'll be back tomorrow for Day 11 of the 2025 Advent Calendar from Unity!

Have an ink-tastic day!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Advent Calendar 2025 Day 9 ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

It's Day 9 of the 2025 Advent Calendar from Unity!! You still with me?! I know the closer we get to Christmas the busier we're all getting. Speaking of being busy, I decided to make a simple card today.

How fun is this cute sentiment stamp?! I adore the font! And I think it's really cute on the tag!

You can check out my video revealing the Advent Calendar Day 9 stamp and my process in making this card here... Unity Advent Calendar 2025 Day 9 | Unity Stamp Co.

Inspiration for my card came from the {BYSHC} Sketch 23! A very simple sketch.

I die cut the sentiment using a die from the Scalloped Tags {nesting dies} (not currently available). I also die cut a piece of the pattern paper for the mat.

I paired up the sentiment with the Jubilant Tapestry {paper pack}. I love all the fun patterns in these papers. I die cut a few scraps using the awesome Washi Tape {die set}. Sadly, it's no longer available. 

I'll be back tomorrow for Day 10 of the 2025 Advent Calendar from Unity!

Have an ink-tastic day!
