DT Tuesday!! Check this OUT!!

 Hi Everyone, Angie Blom here with another wonderful DT Tuesday..
 a day to share a little about me, maybe a project or two..
and my PROJECT PICK OF THE WEEK!!
  I have found around the Internet..
 So keep on posting those Unity Projects..
cause we are always looking!!

Here is a little about me..
 I am 47 years old, and have been married for nearly 25 years..
 this year is a BIG one..
 and I have been spoiled by my sweetheart..
 IT is nice to have my hubby support me in my craft.
 All I can say is that I have alot to be thankful for.
I started with Unity close to 2 years ago.. and I just love this company..
 so much inspiration daily
These wonderful stamps take me to a land far, far away
 where red rubber is loved and adored by all..haha
 I guess it is Crazy Angie day today..
 gotta laugh at myself.. and it is okay you can laugh at me too. That is just how I roll…  
I have this first project to share using the
NEW S. M. A. K. kit of the month..

okay when I saw this I feel in love.. for 2 reasons.. one being it is all about documenting ME..
 yes, make a wonderful layout to leave for your family and friends that is just you.. no one else.. love that!!the second.. well it was designed by Joslyn and Myself… yippee … so I was over the moon to see some of my images  in RED rubber.. I even had a little joy cry.. must be old age..haha

Here is the full kit.. that was just revealed yesterday!!
I am thinking, project life, layouts, mini albums,  mixed media.. are you thinking the same.. ??

so here is my layout.. this will go into my Project Life
using just a 8.5x 11 piece of white cardstock.

I just kept it clean and simple.. layering the stamps in black in a cluster..
I am so in love with the film strip.. that was one image I will be using alot!!

to go grab this S.M.A.K kit of the month, you have to be a member.. so go to the Unity Website
and become one.. lots of great perks with additional add on’s for this kit..  Best part you get a full sheet of  8.5 x 11 great quality RED RUBBER , made in the USA!!

I also have this wonderful card Using another one of my images.. from the Unity March KOM.. you only have till the end of the month to grab this wonderful kit.. that is only till Saturday!!
here is the card I did using the banners.. I inked this up in a teal blue , paper pieced in different
patterned papers and then outlined it all in clear glitter. ..

this is the full kit… I just love this one!!


***********************************************

DT Tuesday with Lisa H.

Good morning and hello. It’s Lisa Henke here with you todayand I couldn’t be happier. I had one of those good mojo weekendsand the creativity sure seemed to flow. I have to say….it’s easy to do with GREAT product. I was inspired by some new paper.I kind of have an illness….I’m sure lots of you can relate. I have a paper sickness. I don’t need any more, but I can’t stop buying it.ANDYOU  KNOW WHAT???I don’t want to be cured!too many cute, cute papers out there. So I had new pack of Jillibean Soup Sweet and Sour paperstaring me down. One of those AH-HA moments…”hey, I have Unity and Jillibean Co-brand stamps that match!So this card came to be….I used this  itty bittyNote to Self

 Next up, I used more Jillibean soup paper,(homemade blackeyed peas)THIS Jillibean co-brand setApple Cheddar Soupand a similar sketch.This time I didn’t have the matching Apple Cheddar paperAND it still looks great.

 Mixing and matching is what it’s all about.I  just saw the Gnome and Juliet movie with my little man on Friday sothe sweet lil’ gnome from this setcouldn’t be passed up.  Thanks for hangin’ with me today. Be sure to hop over to FB later this morningand check out my post….there just might be a little prize involved.Just sayin’! Enjoy your Tuesday! “Sometimes people are beautiful.
Not in looks.
Not in what they say.
Just in what they are.”

Oops…Co-Brand Project a Little Late

Seriously…it’s FRIDAY!!!I thought it was THURSDAY…which I should have known since I THOUGHT I was on yesterday’s Hip Hop and I wasn’t….thanks Jimmi :)Anyway…Maria here today with a co-brand project I made for hip hop that I didn’t need because I thought I had today to make another little something…you’d think the three calendar’s I have would be enough. I took a cheap dollar store ornament and made a cute ornament for my Christmas tree this year using the Jillibean co-brand set {Jolly Good Fun}

 Snowmen are my ULTIMATE holiday decoration and I love the simplicity of the one’s in this set.  Plus the sentiments are all such a fun font 🙂
The {Pre-Holiday Sale} is still going on so
DON’T MISS OUT!!!
Once the snow starts flying you are gonna wish you had these stamps!!
PROMISE 🙂
