GIU week Day 5

Hi everyone,

Today  is my last day as GIU  girl. It's  been  so much fun doing  this. Today I  have simple  tag for you  guys.

I used the kit An Artful ornament  by Susan K. Weckesser  amd used the sentiments. I used  red ink to add a  splash color. 

Don't  forget  to  comment so you can be entered  into the drawing  for the pack of 25 random  stamps  from unity.

Thank you  guys so much for the opportunity. 

Lupe. 

GIU Week Day 4

Hello ladies,

How is everyone  today. Today I  bring  you  a journal  page. One of  my goals  this year  is to try and do a little  more  Journaling. Hopefully I  can.  Anyways  todays journal page  features  the kit Steps  of Courage. I started  out with a scrapbook  page that had some flowers  and birds  on it. Then I  used the flowers  from the set and put it on different  parts  of the sheet.  Then I  used Tim Holtz  distressed  ink to distress  the flowers. I also used the sentiment  "Difficult  Roads  often lead to beautiful  destinations."  I also used distressed  ink.

I got a close up of the sentiment  cause it was hard  to  see because of the blue on the paper. I really  should have picked a lighter  shade. Oh well  lesson  learned  right.

Hope you ladies  have a fun  day enjoy. 

Oh and remember  i will be  choosing  two lovely  ladies  to win a random  25 stamps from unity so make sure  you  comment  for your  chance to win.

GIU Week Day 3

Hello everyone  and  welcome  to  day three of my GIU week. Today i have a canvas project  for you using  the  kit Born to Stand Out, it's  such a wonderful  kit. I've  always loved  these kits so inspiring. 

I used the sentiment  "Being different is one of the most Beautiful  things on Earth. "

So no matter who or what you  are. You are the most beautiful thing in the world.  

And with that U leave  you ladies with that thought.

Remember  come  by my blog  everyday this week and comment for your  chance to win a bag of 25 random  stamps from Unity.

Thank you all for coming by.

GIU week Day 1

Hello everyone,

I'm  so excited to  be GIU  girl  this  week. For my first  project I did something  simple. I took kraft paper and cut a square  into it to  make a window where I  used  the kit Jar of  Hope on a piece  of  adhesive  and stamped the jar. Next i used the sentiment  "I can't  promise  to  fix all your  problems, but I  can promise  you won't have  to face  them  alone."

I also  added the butterfly. I love butterflies  they always give me hope.

Rember at the end of the  i will be choosing  two winners for a bag of 25 random  stamps, so be sure to  comment  on my blog  every day  this week.  

Enjoy your  day. 

Simon Says Monday Challenge 2-15-2016

Hello everyone,

    Hope everyone is enjoying their day. I'm back with my project for the Simon Says Monday Challenge. I took a jar and reused it to make a floral arrangement with pipe cleaners. First off I started by painting it blue that was fun. Then I thought why don't I make itty bitty dots of green to make it look different. I used Mod Podge to seal in the paint. And now for the result:

I had a lot of fun making this. It was a good challenge and help me use a different creative outlet. Hope you all enjoyed my little project and I hope there will be another challenge like this in the future. Thank you all for reading.

Card making is awesome.

Hello everyone. I apologize for not being able to continuously show my creativity like I want to this year. This year I was selected to be the Growing In Unity Girl with Unity Stamps on the last week of the year. This group is great their support and encouragement is  amazing. I for one can not wait till the end of December so I can show off my stuff. So today I've got a few pictures of the card that I have made in the last two days. Enjoy.

This one was done with the kits Happy Dust and Dragonflies and Fairies.

 This one was from Phyllis Harris and is called She deserves a party.

 The inside was made with a Congrats stamp from a grab bag that I won last year.

 Aww....this was made with the kit All Kinds of Happy.

 This one was made with the kit Include Yourself in Beauty.

 This is a birthday card that I'm giving to one of my best friends who's birthday is tomorrow.  I used the kit Happy Chick Birthday. Underneath you'll find the inside where I wrote my own personal message for her. I can't wait to give it to her.

This one was made with the kit Today is a Lovely Day. Underneath and to the right is the inside of the card.

The card on the left was made with the Dragonflies and Fairies kit.

Well I hope you all had a great time. I know I did. See you soon.

MFT Sketch 267

Sorry it's been a few long weeks. I had to take some time off to figure out how I was going to be able to make my cards without making a mess in my dinning room, so I finally got to fixing the extra room we have in my house so that I can have a space for all of my craft stuff. Now how I'm going to arrange it is beyond me. I'll work on it when I get on vacation I can't wait for  it. Now for my card for Sketch challenge 267. Today I used two Unity Stamp Kits. I used the Happy Dust stamp and the Fariy stamp form the kit Dragonflies and Fairies.

I also took some sanding paper and sanded some of the  paper to look a little different.

Well that's all for today. Have a wonderful day.

MFT Sketch 262

Hello everyone in the MFT world and Happy New Year. I apologize for my absence lately but with work and making my own cards and ornaments it's been hard to make any challenges for the last few weeks. Now that everything has slowed down at work and at home I am back to doing challenges. Tonight I used the kit Life is Better by Phyllis Harris from unity stamp and also used the stencil Herringbone Bricks in the background.

I used the sentiment "Life is better with friends."  I also use Distressed Markers to color in the Little girl and the puppy, While I used a pinkish/ red color to ink up the stencil and then cut it out into smaller pieces to make this card pop.

Hope you guys had fun.

Unity Hop 1-7-2016

Yay another hop so excited and I've begun counting down the weeks till I'm the GIU girl. I can't wait. I'm the last week of the year so I'm hoping everything will go fast even though I don't really want it to. Anyways tonight I have a very cute card for you. Now I started out with the Kit Going to be Owl-right. I love this little owl. He's so cute.

I used the sentiment "It's not what we have in life, but who we have in our life that matters."

The next picture is just a closer look at the sentiment.

Well hope you guys are hoping along and go by Unity's sale. The sale is amazing.

Enjoy.

Unity New Years Ever Blog Hop two days later.

Hello every one and Happy New Year !!!!!!!!! Okay so I'm a few days late but it's been very busy at Target for the last two weeks today is the first time I've even went anywhere near my stamps in a good while. I'm usually better at keeping up with challenges but the lack of sleep was getting to me. Anyways I'm better now that everything has slowed down at work.

So for the first Creation of 2016 I use one of my new kits Part of the story. I love this kit cause everyone has an event they struggle with and each one is just part of that story.

Oh and I also got a new toy the other day. I got me a Cuttlebug it's awesome even though I'm still learning to use it. But I love the embossing folder. Now I need to get some more.

Hope you all enjoyed the new stuff. Now go do me a favor and go shop. Angela extended the sale for one more day.
