HIP HOP } A New Year, New Found Loves

In my post today, I'll share with you some of my NEW loves, since it's the NEW year.

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

Love #1
We had the option this week of working with our FAVOURITE Unity stamps, so of course, I pulled out the co-branded stamp sets from Iron Orchid Designs.  Beautiful.  I like beautiful.  I love beautiful.

Devotion Collection - Good, Pure, Excellent

Do you spot her?  The lady in the corner?  When I think of this stamp, I think of SERVING each other.  And that is what love and parenthood is all about.  I also used 1/2 of the FRAME stamp on either side of the layout for our names and year of birth.

LOVE #2  K - I love this heart stamp.  I want to use it on everything.  In fact - I just had a thought.  This would make a great stamp for the back of homemade cards!  I will do this.  That gem is from Making Memories and had been scufed with paint.

And here is the beautiful biblical quote.  I encased it with a Spellbinder's die cut frame.  All that ink you see is Broken China Distress ink.  Love #3  For some reason, I am really finding out that I love blue.  I reach for blue ink and sprays more than any other color.

Ah Prima, how I adore thee. Love #4  I love flowers and this awesome faux suede leaf ribbon from MAY ARTS is really funky!  This is the first time I've left tehm strung together.  I usually cut them up for individual use.  Love #5  Hemp cord!  Strung throughout a layout, I love how it looks!  It comes in all different colors too!

Love #6  A new found love for GESSO paint and Shimmerz- A GORGEOUS COMBINATION.  I used a mixture of Shimmerz paints and spritz' on top of the GESSO that coated the letters.  I think that frame is by Little Yellow Bicycle.

Oh, I can't forget to tell you about the January kit.  Once I get it, I will be using so many of these scrappy stamps on my layouts!  I love the stitched memories journal box especially.

Have you thought about joining the club?  There are quite a few perks - check it!

Kit info can be found here.

HIP HOP SKETCHES?

Do you know about the Hip Hop Sketches?  If you play along, you can win some stamps!  And a little birdie told me that there are currently very few players, so I'm thinking that people just don't know where to find these challenges and where to upload.  That being said, your odds of winning are good if you play along!  You can find the information at Splitcoast Stampers in Unity's Challenge Forum. 

STILL FREE SHIPPING!  Check it out!

Now it's time to hop on over to the next blog in the hop!
