Meowica ~ Purr-ade Crasher Pissy Kitty ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend! 

Who is ready for summer?! The latest pissy kitty is!! LOL! Or maybe not!! Hahaha... it's such a cute stamp! This cutie is called Purr-ade Crasher Pissy Kitty from Unity.

I just had to ink her up and color her with my Copic markers.

 

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

Kitty: C0, C1, C2, R00, R20

Glasses: R20, R14, R27, Y11, Y15

Shirt: Y11, Y15, B000, B00, B02

Pants: R20, R14, R27

Sparkler: Y11, Y15, YR15

I die cut the kitty using a die from the Scallops & Circles {nesting dies}. I die cut one of the sentiments using a die from the Distressed Tickets {ticket dies} and then I ink smooshed it with Candied Apple and Lumberjack Plaid Distress Inks. I just trimmed up the 'meowica' sentiment. The sentiments are adhered to the circle and I popped them all up on the card.

The background was a scrap in my stash that I had run through my big shot with the Bricked embossing folder from Tim Holtz. It's not super easy to see the distressed bricks in the background in my photos but it's visible in person. I ink smooshed the background with Salty Ocean and Candied Apple Distress Inks. I die cut the background using the largest die from the Deckle & Stitches Nesting dies. I adhered all of my layers to a white A2 top fold card base. And then I finished it off with some fun sequins from my stash. Love it!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky hugs,

Crystal

Just Keep Swimming Card Set ~ August 2021 Whit Kit ~ Unity Stamp Co.

 Hello there crafty friend!

I'm back with a whole set of fun and quick cards using the beautiful August 2021 Whit Kit called Just Keep Swimming from Unity Stamp Co.!! The beautiful By the Sea {paper pack} inspired this quick set of cards with all the white space in the top portion... it screamed for a sentiment!

I trimmed four different papers from the By the Sea {paper pack} down to 4 x 5-1/4" and stamped each of them with one of the four sentiments included in the Just Keep Swimming stamp set. 

I adhered each piece to a True Black card front measuring 4-1/4 x 5-1/2" and then adhered the card fronts to white A2 top fold card bases.

I set those aside and stamped four turtles on scrap pieces of white card stock. I colored each of the turtles pretty quick with just 3 Copic markers ~ BG11, G24, G99.

I fussy cut each of the turtles and cleaned up the edges with a Memento Tuxedo black marker and then I adhered them to the cards. This whole set of cards maybe took me 30 minutes... I think the longest part was the fussy cutting. I'm sharing a quick video on my YouTube channel - showing all the fun goodies in the August 2021 Whit Kit and also how I quickly copic colored the turtles! You can check out that video here... August 2021 Whit Kit Reveal & Quick Copic Coloring of a Turtle.

Here's a quick look at the fun set of cards that I created! These would make a great gift for a friend!

And I used the same basic design only a bit bigger to make a 5 x 7" shaker card using the shaker pocket from the card kit.

Unfortunately the photos didn't turn out very well, but you get the main idea!

Here's another look at this month's fab Whit Kit... if you aren't signed up for this fun membership, you should really give it a go! The kits are so amazing each month!

That's it for me this time. I'll be back tomorrow with my weekly Christmas card!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,

Just Keep Swimming Shimmer Card ~ August 2021 Whit Kit ~ Unity Stamp Co.

 Hello there crafty friend!

Today I'm sharing a pretty card using the beautiful August 2021 Whit Kit called Just Keep Swimming from Unity Stamp Co!! I decided to use the fun Nuvo Shimmer Powder from this Whit Kit and the two other shimmer powders from a past Whit Kit and make a fun background for some turtles to just keep swimming in!!

I created the background by tapping the bottom of each of the Shimmer Powder bottles over a 4-1/4 x 5-1/2" piece of Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor card stock and spritzing the card stock with water. 

I dried the background and then added some more Shimmer Powder and spritzed more water. I did this a couple of times until I was happy with the background. I let the background dry and then I stamped the cute turtle a few times and the sentiment on the background with Gina K. Amalgam black ink. I trimmed the background to 3-3/4 x 4-3/4" and mat it with a piece of True Black card stock measuring 3-7/8 x 4-7/8".

I added some Tombow Mono Multi liquid glue around the bottom edge and right corner and sprinkled it with the Seaside Sequin mix from the kit. I adhered a few more sequins around the turtles and then let the background dry again. I cut a card front of True Black card stock and then found a scrap piece of Aqua Mist card stock measuring 2-3/8 x 5". I adhered the background piece to the Aqua Mist scrap and than adhered the entire piece to the True Black card front and then a white A2 top fold card base. I just adore the shimmer in this background!! So pretty!

Here's a little look at the August 2021 Whit Kit... so much fun!

 I'll be back tomorrow with a set of cards that I created with the kit!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,

Crystal
