Unity Stamp of the Week

Here's my card featuring the Unity Stamp Of The Week. Isn't it just the prettiest of fall images?!

I loved it as FALL is my favorite season!!!It's colored with Copics and Spectrum Noir markers.

The green doily... SU white paper doily, inked with H20 inks. While still fairly wet I added clear embossing powder and heated. I LOVE IT!!!!

Thanks for looking. Check out Unity's Stamp Company Stamp of the week club.

Dynamic Duos #65 My card

the color combo -

My card was created using Stampin' Up! Blushing Bride cs and cs from American Greetings. Stamp is from Stampin' Up! Pursuit of Happiness. Embossing folders  on the background are from Stampin' Up! as well. The ef on the sentiment is from QuikCuts. I did not have the pistachio colored ribbon, so, with my ink pad and a sponge I colored my ribbon. Rhinestones are from Stampin' Up! also.

The Paper Players have us "in stitches" this week! LOL That's the theme LeAnne chose for the challenge this week. Lucky for me, I won some blog candy from HippieAud a while back and included in the candy was Spellbinders embossabilities Sewing Elements. So fun to work with! I used the dress form and the sewing machine from the set. My stamps are from Flourishes. Hubs bought three packages of various buttons from a garage sale last summer. I know my sentiment is a little obscure but I thought "MADE" could imply sewing.

Hope you like my card.

The Paper Players Challenge #134.

I went out of the box on this one. I created my own background from a piece of scrap dsp.
I saw this technique on Pinterest. I found it HERE. Basically, what you need is a patterned paper and an embossing folder, some Versa Mark and some clear embossing powder, a dauber and some black re-inker.

Run your dsp through your Big Shot machine in the embossing folder. Then lightly drag your Versa Mark over the raised areas. Sprinkle with embossing powder, dust away any embossing powder that falls into the valleys. Then heat. Repeat this process about 3 or 4 times. Then with a dauber and some black ink daub the black ink into the valleys, until they are completely covered. Then take a paper towel and rub ink off any ink that may have gotten onto the raised areas. It's a resist process and I am now "in love" with it!

So anyhoo, this is my entry for this week's episode of The Paper Players Challenge.

The Paper Players Challenge #129 - Clean & Simple. Got it!
01/24/2013 @ 9:45 p.m. My sweet friend Mary Beth went to join her husband, Dave with our Heavenly Father. R. I. P.
I have a sweet friend, Mary Beth, who fell and broke her wrist. I wanted to make her a get well card and this challenge made that pretty easy for me to do. So using Stampin' Up! On the Grow (123077) which is retired to make my card. I inked up my stamp with Versa Mark then inked it again in Soft Suede and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Now you may ask me why? Well, the Versa Mark helps hold the embossing powder on and the colored ink outlines the stamped image so that when I use my markers or crayons or color pencils to color, the color stays where I put it. A little Stampin' Up! Summer Starfruit ribbon and it's a done deal.

Spellbinders dies, Copics markers and DCWV Rustic & Shimmer packs were also used in creating this card.
