Trees A Crowd!

Happy Earth Day! I thought I'd give caardvarks "Trees A Crowd" challenge a try. As soon as I read the challenge I knew I had to use these adorable trees from Unity Stamp Co. They are part of a set called giggle grove. Super cute! I also love the stair-step style card's 3-D feel.

EtsyInspired #32!

Hello! Well I decided to give Ashley's EtsyInspired challenge a try. Each week a different Etsy shop is featured. This week's cute shop is Angel Face Designs . I found a lot of the designs in this shop to be inspiring, but the "you are my sunshine" necklace really caught my eye.
I think I was drawn most to it because we have had such a long and cold winter, and I want to see some sunshine! I decided to create a bracelet instead of a card. That way anytime I need some "sunshine" I just have to put it on!

Now on to the details. All you need to do is check out Angel Face Designs over on Etsy and find a piece that inspires you. Create any kind of project you want and put it on your blog. Then go back to Ashley's blog post and post the link to your project to be entered. Make sure to post it on Ashley's blog by Friday April 24th noon Pacific time. If you complete this challenge you will be entered for a chance to win a pendant from Angel Face Designs! How cool is that?

Ok, here's what I created.

Have a great week and have fun with this challenge!

Friday = Hip Hop Hangover!

Hello All! Yay, it's Friday. Well I hope everybody has had a great week. It was a good week for me. I got my April KOTM! Super cute. I think they get cuter each month. Well I just adore these cute kites, as you can see with my 2 cards I'm sharing today.

Have a Great Friday and weekend! Oh, and don't forget to check out my art share/blog candy on the post below. If you sign up I could send you anything like a card, altered item, or maybe even a handmade by me piece of jewelry!

Art share/Blog candy!

I found this neat activity on Ashley's Blog. I hope you will play along with me!
Here's how it works:

The first 5 people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice! For you! Could be a card I am really pleased with, an altered object or something else altogether! My choice! But this offer has some restrictions and limitations:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2. What I create will be made with you in mind, so you won't get something I already made unless I think it suits you to a T.
3. It'll be done sometime this year.

4. There is a catch - you must offer this same blog candy on your blog! Let me know you're in, then re-post this on your blog and offer something you make - your choice - to the first 5 people who respond to your post. Add my name to the #1 slot on your list - I am your first participant. When you create your giveaway, you will become the first participant on the lists for the people who participate with you. Got it? :-)
Okay, so who wants to play??

Hip Hop!!!

Hello all! I hope you have enjoyed your hip hop travels today. You have made it to the end! I hope you got to check out all the awesome projects along the way, if not start at Unity's blog, and be sure to check out all the great deals going on today. I am so excited to be part of this week's blog hop! Thanks for all the votes. I hope you enjoy what I have made! Be sure to leave me a comment to be entered for a chance to win Unity's cute Tiny Trinity set! I will pick a winner at 8PM central time tonight. I will post it on my blog after that. On to my projects. My first project I have to share is a card I made using the new Plant a Tree stamp to go along with the Earth Day theme. Super cute stamp, and did you know that Unity's new packaging is manufactured with 100% wind power. How cool is that?

Materials used: Unity Stamp Co.- Plant a Tree, My Mind's Eye dp and ribbon, Ancient Page-Coal Black ink and prismacolor pencils.



Here's my second project. I found this frame at a local craft store. It's my first altered project.

Materials used: Unity Stamp Co. Just my Type and Wish Sticks, My Mind's Eye dp, Basic Grey buttons, We R Memory Keepers ribbon, and Ancient Page-Chocolate ink.

Hope to see you all over in the Hip Hop chat in the SCS forum, and don't forget to leave a comment to win free Unity!

Wow!

I'm super excited! In March the Unity Stamp Co. featured a challenge. The challenge was to create different projects using their March Kit of The Month. We all uploaded our layouts, cards, and altered projects to Splitcoast Stampers. There were a lot of very beautiful projects submitted. They were then narrowed down to 5 and voted on by all the wonderful Unity followers, and I found out today that I won! I want to thank everybody who voted for me. Now here's the awesome part. I get my April Kit of The Month free(how cool is that!) AND I get to have my blog featured this Thursday along with Unity's amazing design team! I'm thrilled to be part of this awesome Hip Hop blog hop. Go give Unity a look, you'll be hooked just like I was the first time I seen their beautiful stamps. So here's my card I submitted and won with.
