Good morning Friends,
Today starts my week of Unity stamp inspired creations. I hope you will visit me each day this week. Because at the end One Random.org selected person will receive two itty bitty stamp sets from Unity stamp company!! If you want to start looking at the itty bitty stamps click here!
Unity has a “ning” web site it’s full of stamping fun here is the link: http://www.myunityplace.com/ and if you do go and sign up, look me up and “Friend” me!!
Here is my Day 1: card
I have used the stamp set “Kokeshi Cuties,” created by Samantha Walker for Unity. I have colored her in with Copics. I added a SU tiny pearl in the flower in her hair.
Behind my girl stamp is 2 different size Sizzix dies. Then the strip of Bravo Burgundy was dry embossed using a Cuddle Bug embossing folder from an “Asian” set. I then use a metallic gold Gelato and rubbed it onto the strip, over the raised flowers.
Behind the strip I stamped the stamp called “Dots for Sure.” I used the same metallic gold Gelato and rubbed it onto the stamp, then with my mister I sprayed water on it and stamped it. The back ground DSP is from DCWV “The Far East Stack.”
This is the “Dots for Sure” stamp.
This is the “Kokeshi Cuties” stamp.

I hope you enjoyed my card, and that you will spend a week of Unity inspiration and fun!
Thank you for your visit and for your comments! Stay Crafty my Friends!
Peace,
KristyLee
I love your style and am looking forward to the rest of your post this week.
I like how you layered everything. Great use of line.
Very pretty card! I really like that dots stamp you used.:)
This is an adorable image Kristy! I like the sheen alot. Haven’t used Gelatos so it is interesting to me to see how “you” use them. What have you colored “baby doll” with? The coloring is beautiful. For that matter, what do you color all your images with…you have a knack for sure! xox
Samara, thank you for your comment. I have colored my image today with Copics. Underneath the photos of my projects/cards I post on my blog, I will list the name of the stamp and company, then I always say what medium I have colored it with. Because I don’t color with the same medium all the time. Thank you for your sweet comment about my coloring. I am still learning.
I love the layers on your card. I’ve never seen this particular stamp set before. Unity has such variety, don’t they? Great card — can’t wait for the rest of your week!
I know right! This is a great set!! Look at all of the FUN stamps that are in it!! I cold spend a week or more just making cards from this one stamp set! OHHHHHHHHH the possibilities with this set!! But I won’t do that to you all I will use a different set each day, lord knows I have enough!
Congrats on being the GUI gal this week! This card is super cute, love this stamp!
I love your card. What a fun stamp set.
I love that you’re the GIU girl!!!!
This is so cute Kristy. I had never even noticed that stamp. I’m glad you brought it to my attention. Thanks Sweetie. Hugs–Patti
You of all people I cant believe you didn’t see this set? Your always in the Unity stamp set gallery shopping LOL!! Hugs to you too!
That is adorable. I’ve never seen that set before. I may just really need it 🙂
You do need it Karen, so many different ways things could be created with it. I think it would be great to cover a small box and then add some of these stamps to it.
Lovely card and that cute geisha doll is just perfect for a project I have in mind… hum… visiting Unity right now, this might be the new stamp set I’ve been looking for.
Thanks for sharing this amazing project.
Hugs,
Julia
Yay! I have inspired someone to make something!! So happy! And Julia, you better show me what you make…. please!
Very cute card! I was born with superfair skin and superdark hair, a head full of it jutting straight from my head, and my mom always calls me her china doll because she says I looked like a porcelain doll, so I love this card! ^_^ I keep seeing all the rad stuff one can do with gelatos, I think I need to take the gelato plunge!
PS–I just added you on myunityplace. 🙂
Thank you Ambelleina, I will go “Accept” it. And with your dark hair and light skin I bet you are very stunning!!
Very nice card. Looking forward to seeing your work.
Very cute–I like your coloring and the use of the gold gelato.
