Happiness is

Well I made it back today! I am so happy to be doing Tag Tuesday exclusively using Unity stamps. I absolutely love this company. I recently joined their stamp of the week club. Someone just asked if I had made anything with any of them yet. I decided I better do something, so here it is. I even incorporated three of them into this one project!

I think it turned out nicely, I hope you like it too. I even included a tutorial which I haven't done in a long time.

I first stamped the owl with potting soil archival ink, and then stamped the pumpkins slightly overlapping the other. I used the same ink, which if you work fast, you can clear emboss with it like I did.

I stamped and embossed this guy another time. Then I colored him with Wink of Stella brush pens by Zig. It is hard to see in the picture, but this color has a hint of shimmer. It is so beautiful up close. We just got these in at Stamp-N-Toys, and I am already addicted to them.

Next I colored the pumpkins.

I even used the silver to add the shadow.

The owl needed some big google eyes!

I added foam adhesive behind him to make him really stand out.

I didn't want much for embellishment. I decided on a strip of doodlebug leaf print washi tape, with a small green rhinestone.

I hadn't decided on a verse or sentiment when I started, but this one quickly stood out.

 

The final touch was some ribbon and twine. I kept this very clean and simple. The focus is the great stamps. Well I really need to get to bed so that I can start all of my fun again in the morning. Thanks so much for joining me on another creative adventure.
