Good morning and good day!  If you're here for the UNITY and IPPITY HIP HOP  - WELCOME!

I am so in love with Iron Orchid Designs and now that their stamps are being made by Unity, I am ever more appreciating their designs.  If you haven't learned by now, I have a hard time doing cute.  I love cute, don't get me wrong, I just can't do it!  I wish I could.

TODAY'S PROJECT
Here is my project(s) for today.  I used the stamps to make tags that will accompany jewelry that I made for gifts.  These were supposed to be quick gifts, and I think it took about 30 minutes for each pair of earrings. 

All tags have been sprayed with Shimmerz spritz, then inked with various chalk inks and/or paint.  The butterfly is a die cut from Silhouette.  After the tags were dry and stamped, I was surprised at how vibrant the Copic markers came through!  Especially on that heart!

To make the butterfly tag, I used the side of the FRAME stamp and used it several times, mixed with the smaller floral image.










Before you go, I wanted to share with you some of my favourite new stamps from Iron Orchid Designs and Unity:
