Friends of Unity~ October 2022

   
Hey everyone!
Welcome to Robyn's Nest!

I love when the new month starts. That's when my friends, and I get together to show our love of our Unity stamps!!

This months cue "Anything But a Card"

 

 

I went with a bag topper and gift card holder

 

 

I use this tea set I've had for years!

Tea Love  <<link to Unity

 

 

For the bag topper base, I used a scalloped die set from Papertrey Ink..

I folded it in half and stapled it to the clear cello bag

I stamped the sentiment onto a separate piece of card stock, then clued it over the staples

 

I hope you have enjoyed this months hop!

Friends of Unity~ September 2022

 

 

Hey there! Welcome to Robyn's Nest

I'm back again this month with my friends, and teamies at

 Friends of Unity Blog Hoppers

 

This months cue is Coffee, Tea, and Cocoa

 

OMG, YAY!!!!! 

I am quite coffee obsessed (can you tell?)

 

For this first card, I used a couple of cute,

 cup holding owls.

*Great Day Owl 

and

*Ray of Sunshine

 

I did a small amount of Copic coloring with the

 E family ;) 

E-36-37-40-41-42

The branches they are sitting on are from,

 My Favorite Things

So cute

The coffee circled paper is from Stampin Up (retired)

Next up is...

 

this frazzled girl..

 the set is called

 Planner Girl: Liquid Hug

I also used the larger 2 dies from Unity's Scalloped dies (love them)

...and lastly, we have.....

 

Let's Get Lost Together <link

 

Y'all, I gasped when I saw this stamp!!
I pretty much have, or have had every coffee stamp Unity makes, and this went in my cart so fast!! Campers, thermos' and s'mores

 are ya kidding???!!! 

Thank you Angie Blom ;)

 

I don't actually "go" camping, but, I love everything crafty camping

(I have 2 campers, too LOL one is vintage)...nope, never camped with them 

 

ok...well, I have enjoyed this months cue very much

I hope you have, too

Welcome to the team!!!

 

For this card, I stamped out the image

I colored her up with a few copics

C-3-5-7 on the dress and went over the dress with BV-000 to give it a purplish hue

Her hair is colored with E50-52 flicks of E-17 and Y19  and that , my friends, is it! 

I fussy cut her out and using a sketch by Crystal, I popped her up a bit so she didn't get lost in all that purdy" crinkle ribbon 

My papers are from Echo Park, called

 Halloween Party

Also!!! Have you bought Unity's Scallops and Rectangles {nesting dies} 

Scallops & Rectangles {nesting dies}  <<link

Game changer for me!! I love that they take the guess work right out of having to measure layers! I just know I'll be using the a lot!! I did, in fact use them for the first time on this card!

 Easy peasy

That's it from me this month!!

So the cue this month is "Stencils "

I don't use many stencils, usually, so I was excited to get Distress Oxide inky for this month, when

 lo, and behold, my SSS Kit of the month came in...can you say, inspiration!!

In this months Simon Says Stamp kit is the beautiful sunburst stencil

I paired it with Unity's Kit of the Month from May 2021 called 

Summer-vibes-kom-5-21/

 

 

 

This beachy kit get SO much use from me!!!

 

For this card, ...

 I grabbed so many ink pads, I'd hate to try and list them. so just have some fun with color..

I stamped, then colored, then fussy cut her, and the beach out. 

I stamped the sentiment so many times on so many things, such as velum, and clear card stock, blue cs and white too, but in the end, I simply stamped the sentiment directly onto the card front (eeep, because there's no going back, right?) 

Perfect! I loved it! 

Then I wrapped it around the bottom of the stenciled layer, and Bam! Done...

well, sorta.. I added the blue'ish layer then added it my card base (Slimline)

This was a fun card to make and I've already sent it a friend in Florida who needs some good juju 😉

(remember the "shroom" lady??)

Now, let's see some details that card, ok!! 

This months cue is so fun!!! I needed a few "men" cards, but only made this one :(

Life gets so busy, eh?

I used Kit of the Month from February 2022

Such an amazing KOM!!

Did you notice that fabulous guitar??

First I grabbed a piece of kraft card stock, then using Versafine watermark stamp pad I randomly stamped a few guitars to the paper as a background...then I used clear embossing powder from WOW and heat embossed to set it...

while that was drying, I colored, then fussy cut the guitar out...

Using Versafine Sepia, I stamped the sentiment and heat embossed

I literally had this piece of burlap on my work table, added it behind the guitar

Loved that much so far, so I added some jute and I was finished!! 

 

I really hope you have enjoyed the hop!!!
