Hip Hopping With Unity Stamp Company!

Happy Hip Hop! It's Thursday, my favorite day of the week! I just love Unity's Hip Hop Blog Hop! It's all because of the amazing design team and all of their creative projects they create! I don't know about you, but every time I hop through the Unity Blog Hop I get super-inspired to create something new. I certainly hope it affects you as it does me!

The card I'm sharing today uses Unity's Creepy, Scary, & Spooky Itty Bitty Stamp. I also used BoBunny paper, Clearsnap ink, and Copic markers.

Now it's time for you to go on over to my creative design team sister Wendy (http://justwen.blogspot.com )to see what wonderful project she's created!

Many Blessings to you and yours!

Here's the card I made using the amazing MADE IN USA inkpad!

Clearsnap Products Used:

• Made in USA 3 Color Pigment Ink Pad

Other Products Used:

• Unity Stamps




• Offray Ribbon




• BoBunny Cardstock and Papers




• Stick Pin-Hydrangea Hippo




• Button
  

Okay, here's how I made this card:

1. Begin with a 5 x 12 inch cardstock base. Score the cardstock at 6inches.

2. Cut a 4 3/4 x 5 3/4 piece of paper. Layer it on the cardstock base, then cut a 4 1/2 x 5 1/2 piece of paper. Using the Made in USA ink pad ink the edges of the paper and layer it on top of that piece.

3. Next cut a 5 x 3 piece of cardstock the same color as your base. Layer a coordinating piece of patterned paper 5 x 2 and layer it on the 5 x 3 piece. Using a border punch of your choice, punch along the bottom edge of this piece. Attach to card as shown.

4. Using the Made in USA ink pad, stamp image on a coordinating piece of paper, cut it out and attach it to the front of the card. Stamp the card's sentiment.

5. Add ribbon, button, and stick pin to finish the card.

Make sure to leave a comment for your chance to win! A winner will be posted on the Clearsnap blog tomorrow! Good Luck!

Many Blessings to you!
