Unity Brown Thursday HOP 2015!!

There’s nothing like getting your hop-on and shop-on BEFORE the busy holidays begin. Unity is releasing LOTS of NEW stamp sets for this hop and the sales are something to gobble about!

Here’s a few samples I put together on tags and a canvas using a few of the NEW releases.

I used the NEW Only Imagine set on my tag above. Isn’t she DREAMY?!

TIP: Apply glossy accents to eyes to give them a more dimensional look. Be sure to let it dry. I usually add this as my finishing touch to a project and allow it to sit for at least an hour before messing with it.

Here’s another peek at the entire set, “Only Imagine”.

you're weird tag


Isn’t she freaking adorable, too?! I think so and the little critter on her head. She’s simply different and fascinating. LOVE the sentiments.

Here’s a peek at that entire set, “Carlee’s Christmas”.

Here’s a canvas I put together using the following NEW sets:  “Let it Go and Focus” and “Keep It Simple”.

let it go canvas

I put together a video showing the ENTIRE process, including how to add texture to a canvas using hot glue, adhering stamped tissue paper over the top of that texture, and following up with embellishing the canvas with a stamp and adding texture and dimension to that as well. I did a similar video a couple of weeks back, but this one answers a lot of your questions and shows more detail.  Also, I’ve changed how I add text instructions to my video.  Please let me know if you LIKE it or just plain DON’T LIKE IT. Hopefully it’s a change for the better.



Here’s a peek at those sets.

I really like the stamp set with the sentiment "You're weird.."
It would be so perfect for many cards.
Your projects are awesome.

Dee Earnshaw said...

Wow, your tags are so pretty with the embellishments you used. Watch your video too and am really inspired to make my own canvass using glue guns. Thanks you so much:)

Camille Robinson said...

THANKS, Ladies!

cal8007--I get my bleeding art tissue paper through Amazon, but I didn't use that kind of tissue paper on the canvas in this post. I used regular, ordinary tissue paper.

Thanks for the great tutorial. I hope to try it. But what I really LOVE is the I can only Imagine tag...it just is so gorgeous. I can not stop going back and looking at it.
