FWF: Groovy Day

Hello! I'm glad you stopped by today. I haven't had much time lately for stamping, but I did manage today to crank out a card. I really need to do more birthday cards, so I pulled out my "Something Groovy" stamp and some hippie-ish Basic Grey paper. See?

Stamps: ippity by Unity Something Groovy; dsp: Basic Grey Lime Rickey

I used the sketch from Mojo Monday and used markers to color the VW and "GROOVY" for the CAS-ual Fridays challenge.

Have a GROOVY weekend!

Grateful: My First PTI

Hello! I had some time to get inky, so I made a CAS thank you card using my one and only PTI set. I have long admired PTI stamps, but I really can't afford them most of the time. I happened to get this set second-hand from someone who was reducing their stash. Lucky me!

I'm playing along with PTI's Make It Monday #99: Repeats and Rainbows.

Stamps: PTI Spots & Dots, Unity Simple Blessings; inks: Memento inks in Tuxedo Black, Summer Sky, Pear Tart and Lilac Posies, Distress Inks in Tumbled Glass and Spiced Marmalade

I don't have any PTI inks, so I used a mix of Memento and Distress Inks to get as close as I could to one of the color schemes we were asked to follow. I masked off a strip where I wanted the stamping, then used a Unity stamp for the sentiment and a few rhinestones to give it a bit more interest.

Thanks for stopping by today, and have a wonderful day!

Friends with Flair: Treats!

Hello, there! Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Did you comment on the other FWF posts? If not, you can get the full list at Unity's blog. Remember that Unity will be choosing a random commenter from one of the posts to win a prize!  :D

With the holidays behind us, I've been turning my attention to the next couple of months - Valentine's, to be exact! I wanted to make up some treat bags that would be pretty simple and quick since they will likely last only long enough for someone to rip it open to get to the candy (at least, I probably would)!

Stamps: Unity kit Cuter Than Most

I dry embossed the lighter colored cardstock at the top of the treat bag, but it didn't show up very well. I think I may make more of these, but with a wider strip for the top of the bag. These little guys are just too cute!

Thanks for hopping along, and remember to comment on ALL the blogs for the best chance to win some Unity! Have a terrific weekend!
