Unity Blog Hop 03.12.15!

HELLO—HAPPY Thursday!!

For this week’s Unity hop, there’s a NEW sentiment kit, a NEW Unity {be inspired} Challenge, a stencil technique video, and there’s an awesome Unity SPRING SALE!

Below is a peek at the tag I made using the color prompt from the NEW challenge.

Here’s a look at the NEW Unity {be inspired} Challenge. Be sure to enter as you can win LOTS of beautiful rubber stamps from Unity Stamp Company!! Click the picture below and it will take you to where you can enter.

In the video I’m sharing today, I use one of the sentiments from the NEW sentiment kit, “Thanks Above & Beyond” created by Lisa Arana with the above color prompt from this month’s Unity {be inspired} Challenge. The stencil that’s used in the kit was made using my Silhouette Cameo and the offset of the sentiment from the NEW sentiment kit in Silhouette Studio.

If you’re interested in making your own stencils with your Cameo, I used Darice Studio 71’s Non-Adhesive Stencil Film (4 mil thick). It comes in a pack of ten 8-1/2-x-11-inch sheets. I used the “cardstock” setting in Silhouette Studio to cut the stencil. It really WORKS well.  I’ve been making stencils like crazy. In fact, I’ve made 27 stencils so far, and I just got the first pack last week—WOW! These stencils are reusable as they can be washed following their use and stored for later. I’ve been fond of stencils in the past, BUT making custom stencils completes me somehow.

Here’s the stencil technique video—lots of stuff going on!

I used a stencil I made with my Cameo to decorate this tag using Distress inks and markers!

Here’s a look at the NEW sentiment kit.

HAPPY Unity Blog Hop THURSDAY! 

Today there are NEW Unity stamps (of course), an awesome Unity Facebook promo/sale, and a few projects of mine to share using some of the NEW stamps releasing for the SALE!

First up is a tag I put together using one of the NEWEST stamps sets releasing TODAY: “Roar. Grr. Eek.” Kit created by Tifany DeGough.

These little ADORABLE animals are so FUN to color or paper-piece! I couldn’t wait to play with them and put them ALL on a tag—SO FUN!

And now onto a couple of other projects I completed recently using printed tissue paper on canvas with a NEW ANGIEGirl, “Lexi,” and a stamp released recently by Tracey Malnofski, “Camille”!!!

If you’re interested in HOW to print and adhere your own tissue paper at home for your canvas projects, take a look at a couple of videos I put together doing just that.

Blossoming Thoughts & Wishes February 2015 Sentiment Kit

Now onto a scrapbook page I put together recently of a picture I took with my son just after the New Year. We were so lucky to have him for three weeks for the holidays before his return to college. We’re all so proud of his accomplishments. HOLD them tight while you can—they grow up SO fast!

If you’re interested in the process for putting the layout together, here’s a link to a video I captured while creating the layout.
