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.

Christmas Cards for Unity Hop

Oh dear where has the time  gone. With about 15 days  till Christmas  I'm  feeling  the stress of not having things done early . I waited  to long to get started  on  my Christmas  cards  and  gifts. If you have been on the Unity show &tell  page  on Facebook you would  have  seen  the  15 Christmas  cards  i've made so far today. Had to stop cause  I  got  up early  today. Anyways  here  is  my  projects for  today.

This card above is my favorite  so far. I use my new Old Traditions  kit to make this. I also used  a teal colored  ink with a light pink ink to make it look like snow in the  background.  For my Christmas  cards  I've used a lot  of  the techniques  that i learned  from all of you guys.  I'll  also  be  sharing  the  Old traditions  card as my be inspired  challenge  card.

Well hope  you  all had a great day and shop the sale for me would  you please. 

Thanksgiving Hop on Saturday

I was so excited to see that we were doing a hop on Thursday. I frankly kinda forgot about it cause I was getting ready for thanksgiving and Black Friday. I got lucky to spend Thanksgiving with my family without having to rush out of the house the only downside was I had to be at work at 4 AM on Friday. Now that Black Friday is over I can really get started on all my Christmas stuff. So today I made some tags for you  guys using several different techniques that I have learn in the past.

I just thought I would just show you guys what I came up with today.

Hope you all have fun. 

Unity Brown Thursday Hop

Oh my gosh glad I waited to show some of my projects that I made Tuesday. I was so excited for the new release I started mine early. As always you guys are always welcome to come by and comment on any of my post. As you could tell I really had the creative spirit this week. It was fun something I was missing for a while. Hopefully it doesn't stop. Anyways I played with a few of my newer kits and I just love them. Here are a few samples:

This first one is one I just made for today's hop. This one is Christine Girl, love her she is so pretty. I did the sentiment upside down but I also added it right side up. The tag is a little small but I will be getting the bigger ones this weekend so I can use her for some of my gift tags this year. I use my red and lime green ink  and blended them together I think it turned out really good don't you think. 

This one is Charlee Girl I used my green ink to blend on the edges and used markers to color Charlee girl in.

I love Christmas teddy. My family will tell you a thousand times over that I love Teddy Bears and I mean I love them. I rather have a teddy even though I'm pretty old now for that but I'd be happy with a teddy none the less. Isn't he cute. I blended the red and green inks again  and I'm happy with the result. This is going to be one of my tags as well. My sister loved it when I showed her the picture.

That's all I have for you today. Make sure you hop with the Design team and the others joining in the hop today and shop the sale. 60% off is amazing.

Thanks everyone

MFT Sketch Challenge 255 and Simon Says Wednesday Challenge

I definitely got the creative spirit this week. I got another card for you guys  this time I'm entering this in the MFT sketch challenge 255 and the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge. I love Christmas. It's my favorite Holiday regardless of all the craziness that is set around it. This year I've decided to make my own Christmas cards and gifts and tags. I really need to amp up the production though I won't have much time next week due to it being black Friday and all.

Anyways I made this beautiful card using Unity's kit Very Merry Christmoose. I used the sentiment "Have a Very Merry Christmoose"  and used the Moose and snowflake stamp to go around. I used the baby oil blending technique to blend the colored pencil on the moose.

This moose is so cute and he wants me to tell you to have a very Merry Christmoose.
