Growing in Unity and Unity Addicts Wednesday

Hello there!!

Today is Wednesday......another Growing in Unity and Unity Addicts day.....I have to admit I'm soooooo excited.....yes, yes yes!!

Let me first share a little story.  When I first read about Growing in Unity I really got interested in being part of it.  Unity and their host María Levine gives us scrappers or cardmakers, the opportunity of showing other stamp addicts like us, our creations, and I truly understand that this chance is unique.  I use Unity stamps anyway, besides I am also an {ippity} Chick, so this is a perfect way of sharing my work and my blog with others.  Thank you both.

Today's card is one that I will send  to my parents, who shared 13 days with me and my family during Christmas. But to be honest, I really know there's nothing like being HOME, and that's the theme of the card.  The stamp set used for this card was HONEY, I'M HOME from Bella BLVD, and added one stamp from House a Home and one from the KOM of March/09.  I colored the house using COPICS and Stampin'Up markers and popped up the house and the sentiment with dimensionals.  Again in this card I used some patterened paper that happen to go perfectly with the theme.  Here you have it.....I hope you like it. 

 

 

Remember to leave me your comments and be back tomorrow and Friday.  At the end of the week I'll randomly pick a person that will win a FREE stamp set from Unity....it might be you......enjoy your day!!

October-Breast Cancer Awareness Month

I'm sipping a cup of coffee, watching the wonderful news of the rescue that's taking place in Chile....OMG, this is wonderful...at last they're out!!

My post today is a card that I did to serve as inspiration for a challenge that I've posted on a FB group that I created a year and so ago, when I started scrapbooking and cardmaking, This group's name is Scrappin Buddies....yes, because it was created with the intention of gathering all my buddies that scrap together and post our work, tutorials, and any ideas, so we could share is with other people that like this hobby as much as we do. And within a year and couple of months we already are 86 members.....woohhooo!!

This is the card and the challenge is to create a card, using pink tones, with the Breast Cancer symbol in any embellishment you pick....ribbon, buttons, brads, eyelets, flowers, etc. Then, you should think in your family and friends, and dedicate this card to any survivor or patient of this terrible disease.


The stamp used is in the August KOM of Unity.


If you want to join us, you are more than welcome. Just click "attend" in the event page and upload your card with a brief sentence telling us who is this card for and in which way you are related. This challenge is due on October 31st, so you still have some time to do something beautiful for that special person.

Happy Wednesday everyone!!

Little Things Make Me Happy

Hi ya!!!

Tuesday night, thinking the deadline was August 31st, I did this card to play in a challenge hosted by RJ Avery over at Scraps of Color.



For some reason I couldn't post the sketch......I'm a little bit dummy when it comes to technology. Of course you can look at it here, and this is the card I submitted for the challenge. The image and sentiment I used is from Unity's August KOM....geee, I loved this kit.

I hope you all enjoy your Labor Day weekend....as for me I am almost ready to start the journey for this long weekend. Take care and be safe!!

I Thought of You

Hi there: This is my second and last post for the day.....it wasn't easy being passive during all those days when I was laying in bed all day. So I think I'm making up for it now. This card is going to play in two challenges: The Card Positioning System #179



and in Stacey's Stamping Stage Color Challenge Act 42




It was very easy to combine both challenges, since I had the sketch and the colors to use. I only had to think a little to come up with something, and here it is. I embossed the peach panel with my Cuttlebug Embossing folder, used the Scalloped Trim border from SU and the image and sentiment is from Unity's June KOTM {fly....free}.




Bye, ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND.....'til next week!!
