Just Us Girls

Ina is our Just Us Girls hostess this week for Wild Card week!  She has picked to use something old and / or something new.  When I read it I read it as old and new LOL.  

So my stamped image is a NEW stamp from Unity Stamp Co called Wintertime Friends.   My pattern papers, the snowflake and twine type tape are all old from my stash.  I've had those snowflakes for years and every year I use one or 2 for holiday / winter cards.

Be sure to swing on by our amazing Design Team for loads of wonderful inspiration.

Just Us Girls Photo Week

Bobby is our fabulous hostess this week for Photo week.  Check out this amazing summer scene she found.

I came up with this.  The pattern papers I had in my stash but I believe are from the Target Dollar spot from a few years ago.  The watermelon image is from Unity Stamp Co.  I stamped it three times using my Misti.  I have to say I LOVE the Misti.  I wasn't sure about it but it's great.  You can repeat stamping if needed so easily.  You know how sometimes your first impression is not inky enough or clear enough with the Misti you can easily keep stamping and get that perfect image.  I added sparkle glitter glue by Studio G for the seeds just because you always need a little sparkle.

Here is what I created using this great stamp from Unity Stamp Co called: Candles and Cake.  I used my Misti to stamp this up in multiple colors  using the Dylusions Mini Inks in the colors: Paradise Teal, Majestic Violet, Vibrant Fuchsia. I left it in the misti then stamped Perfect Medium and embossed with a clear embossing powder by Recollections.
