Can I say . . . Hip Hop?!

I've been a busy little stamper and have more cards to share! :) Since it's the day after the Hip Hop at Unity - I thought I'd share a few Unity cards I've made recently!

First, this week's Color Challenge on SCS was Real Red, Basic Black and Kraft - love it!! I had to pull out my new Bright Snow stamp and try it on a card (remember the wreath I made for SIWL using this stamps?). I also wanted to use Do Not Open - such a fun little stamp and it was perfect to make a tag with! I added some scored lines above and below the snow, a few crystals to the snowflakes, some fun ribbon and called it good!

Cardstock: Real Red, Basic Black, Kraft (SU!) Stamps: Bright Snow, Do Not Open (Unity Stamps) Ink: White Craft (SU!), Tuxedo Black (Memento), Real Red (SU!) Accessories: Nestabilities, Scor-Pal, Ribbon (American Crafts), Baker's Twine (Say It With Letters), Swarovski crystals

Next is a card I made for VSN on SCS (that's Virtual Stamping Night on Splitcoaststampers) last weekend. Sure I had a million things to do but I did have fun sneaking in a few challenges!
I made this card for the Standing In the Spotlight challenge - to make a card using the spotlighting technique. I used a fairly new stamp called Prince of Peace from Unity. In case it's hard to see, I embossed the image using gold ep and then colored the spotlighted area using Copic markers.

Cardstock: Gold, Close to Cocoa, Bashful Blue (SU!), white (GP) Patterned Paper: SU!- retired Stamps: Prince of Peace (Unity Stamps) Ink: Gold Metallic (Encore) Accessories: Gold ep (SU!), Blue taffeta ribbon (SU!), Brads, Nestabilities, White gel pen, Dimensionals, Copic markers

One last card, this was for one of last week's Hip Hop challenges, Oh Just Cut It Out! The challenge was to have something cut out and popped up with foam tape on your card. This was a super fast card! I embossed an area with a rectangle Nestabilities, masked it off and stamped Distressed Dots over the whole card. I then stamped the little pumpkins 3 times - once on the card and twice on a scrap - colored, cut out and layered them on the card.

Cardstock: Vintage Cream (Papertrey Ink)
Stamps: pumpkins from October KOTM, sentiment from September KOTM (Unity Stamps), Distressed Dots (Unity Stamps)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento), Sahara Sand (SU!)
Accessories: Dimensionals, Prismacolor pencils, Linen Thread, Nestabilities

Have a great weekend! :)
