It's time for some Unity Stamp Co. Fun!!!!

Tonight is a big release for Unity Stamp Company. They are releasing 5 new kits and 10 single stamps. The party is going to get started over on Splitcoast Stampers at 9:00 CST. There are going to be games and giveaways (Angela is giving away one of everything that is being released!!!) so you definitely will want to be there.


I have been wanting to make some more cards for Ben while he is gone and the kit, Beautiful Life was calling to me. To just look at this kit, it seems to be more of a feminine set, but I keep using it on my masculine projects and it is working fabulously!! There is a swirl included in the kit that I used in the corners of this card...I love that effect. So many swirls are really light and feminine, but this one really makes a statement that is great for a masculine project.

supplies used:
*Crate Paper Static Collection
*Unity Stamp Company Beautiful Life kit (I used a marker to just stamp the Love part of the sentiment stamp)
*K&Company journaling card
*Doodlebug alphabet stickers
*brown brads

supplies used:
*Crate Paper Static Collection
*Unity Stamp Company Beautiful Life kit
*small circle punch (to create the ticket-looking corners)
*small blue brads

You have seen this project before, but I wanted to show it with the cards since they are all using the Beautiful Life stamps and the Crate Paper Static paper line.

supplies used:
*Crate Paper Static Collection
*Unity Stamp Company Beautiful Life kit (I used a marker to just stamp the Life part of the Beautiful Life stamp)
*Unity Stamp Company Tea Time Pattern Background stamp
*MME Journaling card

The stamps in this set are big (which is awesome, but they don't always work at that size for every project), but I love the fonts used so there are a couple of times on these projects where I used water-based markers to color in one part of a phrase so that I could stamp one word. You can see that in the Love down in the corner of the Miss You card and the Life on the layout. To do this, you simply color the part of the image that you want to stamp with the marker. Then you blow the hot air from your mouth on it which will moisten it so that it will stamp clearly. If that isn't clear, let me know and I can do a full-blown tutorial on how to do this.

I hope that we see you over at SplitCoast tonight!
ETA...the new stamps are up and OMG! You have got to go check them out. I am seriously placing an order! You can see the new kits here and the new singles here. If you place a $100 order tonight, then you get the Shopaholic kit free!
