Unity Advent Calendar 2024 Day 22 ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

It's Day 22 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!! Just a couple days to Christmas! What's on your agenda?! I need to finish wrapping gifts! Yikes!

Today's stamp is a super cute snowman. I stamped him with Black Amalgam ink. And fussy cut him leaving a bit of a border around the top of the snowman but I cut on the line for the bottom. Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used: C00, C1, C3, B000, B00, B91, YR21, YR15, Y28.

You can check out my video revealing the Advent Calendar Day 22 stamp and my process in making this card here... Unity Advent Calendar 2024 Day 22 | Unity Stamp Co.

Inspiration for my card came from the {BYSHC} Sketch 34! I had fun with this sketch! 

A sweet holiday card and it's a fun fold!! The card opens in the center just under the snowman's hands.

I paired up the cute snowman with the Snowy Winter Greetings {paper pack}. The sweet sentiment is from the Simple Little Wishes {itty bitty} stamps.

I'll be back tomorrow for Day 23 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 19 ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

It's Day 19 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!! We are nearing the end of this fun advent calendar. I hope you've been enjoying the inspiration!

Today's stamp is a beautiful flower. I stamped it with Black Amalgam ink and colored it up with a few Copic Markers: R00, R21, R43, G00, G43. I then die cut it with a circle die from the Scallops & Circles {nesting dies} and mat it with a black circle also die cut using the same dies.

You can check out my video revealing the Advent Calendar Day 19 stamp and my process in making this card here... Unity Advent Calendar 2024 Day 19 | Unity Stamp Co.

Inspiration for my card came from the {BYSHC} Sketch 41! Another fun sketch with fun layers! 

Love the vintage / gritty vibe of this one with these pretty papers! All the measurements for this sketch is on my video. They are slightly different from the sketch above.

I paired up the pretty flower with the Grit & Grace {paper pack}. I again used a cut apart sentiment that I had received in a Unity order as a freebie.

I'll be back tomorrow for Day 20 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!

Have an inktastic day!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Membership Wednesday ~ December 2024 KOM Chilly Paws & Fresh Start ~ Unity Stamp Co.

  Hello there crafty friend!

Today I'm sharing a cute birthday card featuring the adorable kitties from the December 2024 Kit of the Month membership from Unity called Chilly Paws & Fresh Start. 

These adorable cats are just TOO cute! I stamped them with Black Amalgam ink from Gina K. Designs and colored them very simply with Copic markers. I die cut them using a die from the Postage Stamp {nesting dies}.

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

Black & White Cat: R00, R20, R21, C00, C1

Orange Cat: R00, R20, YR21, YR15, BG10, BG01, Colorless Blender

Gray Cat: R00, R20, N0, N2, N4, Y11, Y15

I paired up the kitties with the Pastel Party Parade {paper pack}. Originally I was going to make a portrait card but I liked the focal image better on the landscape base.

I trimmed up the sentiment and adhered it directly to the card. To add a bit of dimension, I popped up the kitties panel with foam tape. I finished off the card with a handful of the raindrops {today's advent goodie!}. Love how this turned out!

Here's a quick look at this month's Kit of the Month membership! Isn't is wonderful?!

Well, that's it for me today! I hope you've been inspired to play with your membership stamps! 

Have an inkredible day!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,

Crystal

Unity Advent Calendar 2024 Day 18 ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

It's Day 18 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!! I have a sweet encouragement card for today's advent goodie.

Today's little door had beautiful raindrop embellies!! I love these! Can you see the bunch I put on my card?! I probably should have put a few around the butterfly. I think I still might.

You can check out my video revealing the Advent Calendar Day 18 stamp and my process in making this card here... Unity Advent Calendar 2024 Day 18 | Unity Stamp Co.

Inspiration for my card came from the {BYSHC} Sketch 42! Fun layers for this one!

I think this photo shows more of the pretty raindrops. I stamped the beautiful butterfly with Black Amalgam ink and then colored it up very simply with the following Copic markers: YR21, YR02, G00, G43, C00, C1. And then I die cut the butterfly with a die from the Deckle & Stitches Nesting Dies.

I paired up the butterfly and pretty raindrop embellishments with the Bohemian Dream {paper pack}. The sentiment is a quick cut apart sentiment that I received in an order as a freebie.

I'll be back tomorrow for Day 19 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!

Have an inkredible day!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Today's Advent Calendar stamp is a beautiful stack of books with a pretty coffee cup! I stamped the image with Black Amalgam ink from Gina K. Designs and colored it up with some Copic markers.

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

There are 27 different sketches to inspire us to create this month! Here's a look at six of them. I was inspired by the one on the top far right... Sketch 3.

A closer look at Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Sketch 3! I love this sketch! It's so fun to use with scraps. Stop by the Tawny Owl Paperie Inky Inspiration Facebook group to check out the challenge and see all the inspiration for each of the sketches. Maybe you'll be inspired to play along with us!

I die cut the stack of books with the smallest die from the Scallops & Circles {nesting dies}. Popped up the circle with foam tape.

I paired up the books and coffee cup with the Perk Me Up {paper pack}. The pretty sentiment is from the Coffee is Not Enough stamps. I heat embossed it with my usual combo of  products: TE Anti-Static Powder Tool, Sugar Cube Pigment Ink from Taylored Expressions, Alabaster White Embossing Powder from Brutus Monroe, and a Wagner Precision Heat Tool.

I'll be back tomorrow for Day 18 of the 2024 Advent Calendar from Unity!
