Always Be On The Lookout, In The Presence of Wonder

Woot, woot, woot! Growing in Unity Day 4! Are you loving all of my creations so far?! I hope so! I also hope you're remembering to comment on my Unity post every day this week! You don't want to miss out on your chance to win a stamp grab bag from Unity Stamp Company!

My project today is one my favorites! I just love this mermaid,.from Unity's Angie Girls line.  I am drawn to black, purple and green together, for some reason.   I've used the stamp set, Adella Girl,  colored with promarkers, for this card.  All papers were scraps from my stash.  The stamp was colored with markers. Tiny black pearls were used to embellish. The sentiment is mounted with foam mounting tape, for dimension.

I am having such a great time with my Growing in Unity week - I hope you're enjoying the eye candy I've been providing.  I admit, though, tomorrow's project is my favorite - So I've saved that one for last! Make sure you are here, tomorrow to see my last Growing in Unity project!

As always, don't forget to comment before you leave, today!

What?! Santa Has Enough Reindeer?!

Good early morning, everyone! Are you excited? I hope so, because its New Release Tuesday at Bugaboo Stamps! We have some adorable new images for you, today, too, like this one - Puppy - Enough Reindeer. Isn't he just the cutest lilttle puppy you've ever seen?! I just fell in love with him when I seen him! He's just the thing for your Christmas cards,  What?! You haven't started on Christmas cards yet?! Oh, my, then you better get started! Why don't you start with picking up this little guy, and maybe a few others, from the Bugaboo Stamps store?

You can see all the fun creations from the Bugaboo Stamps DT using this little fella, over at Catch The Bug.  Then, check out the Bugaboo Stamps store, for this image and lots of others, for your card making needs!


My card uses one of today's new release image and sentiment set, Puppy - Enough Reindeer, from Bugaboo Stamps, colored with Promarkers. All papers used are scraps from my scrap bin. (Gotta use up those scraps so we can buy more paper and make MORE scraps, right?!)  My card layout uses the sketch at Seems A Little Sketchy. I went with a fun mix of patterns this time, with tartan (plaid), santa and snowflakes. I felt they were perfect for this poor little reindeer puppy, so hopeful, as he stands out in the snow. I embellished with two pointsetta flowers, backed with burlap. The flower centers are jazzed up with tiny pearls.  I added glitter to the puppy's hat, the bells on his color and the snow beneath him.

This card was made to send a wonderful male friend of mine, for Christmas.  I'm sure he will love it - He doesnt mind if there are flowers on the card, for Christmas! :D
