Thank You

Hello everyone! I'm on the Brutus Monroe blog today with a Thank You card!

I decided to color on kraft (lunch bag cardstock) with my color pencils. I stamped the holly sprig from the Holiday Card kit stamp set from last year with Sugar Cone ink and colored it with staedtler color pencils. I used a shade of green and black for the shadows. Then I die cut the sentiment "thanks" on scarlet glitter stock and adhered in on to the panel.

This is a clear and simple card, with a pop of color. How do you like this card today? Please do let me know in the comments. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day.

May Your Holidays Sparkle

Hello everyone!! Hope you are having a great day so far. I'm here to share a Christmas card using one of the Power Poppy Stamps.

I stamped the image from Power Poppy - Glistening Paperwhites on kraft cardstock and colored it with Crayola pencils. The sentiment is also from the same stamp set. I adhered ScorTape of 1/8" thickness to create a border around the panel and embossed it with green embossing powder from Stampendous. I added a few Nuvo drops in color Bottle Green.

This is a simple and easy card to make. Hope you like it. Do let me know your thoughts.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great week ahead.

GIU Day 2 - Hope Blooms

Hello everyone!! Welcome to day 2 of my Growing in Unity!! This week, till Friday, I will be sharing projects that I made with Unity Stamps. Let's get on to the project for today.

October is the Breast Cancer Awareness month. So I thought it would be appropriate to make few cards in pink. Here's one for today:

The image is from Unity Stamps' Happiness looks gorgeous stamp set on a piece of kraft paper that I recycled from the grocery bag. I stamped it with VersaMagic white chalk ink and colored with markers and glitter pens. The sentiment, from Unity Stamps' Petal Whimsy {Where Flowers Bloom} stamp set is also stamped with white chalk ink. I didn't have any dark pink cardstock. So I colored the edge of a white card stock with the same marker I used to color the flowers and used it to mat the kraft paper. I used dark pink/magenta glitter tape on the pink card base and adhered the panel at an angle to add more interest. I used my regular hole punch to punch out small circles from the glitter tape and covered it with glossy accent. I'm kind of getting hooked to glossy accent. I seem to use it more often!

I will admit that this card did not turn out the way I had thought, but anyway thought of sharing it so that you can help me in understanding the mistakes that I did and what I could have done better.

Thanks for stopping by. Do visit me every day this week, and leave your thoughts and comments. I will pick 2 winners at the end of this week and they will win 25 random stamps from Unity!! How awesome is that!! See you tomorrow with another new and exciting project.
