I have 4 daughters so it was inevitable that unicorns would feature in my life from time to time (in the case of one of them, lets say there was a time she was OBSESSED!).  Even though she’s older now and not QUITE so unicorn mad I still can’t pass up a unicorn stamp set and this one from Neat and Tangled is a MUST HAVE!  There’s something about the way the main flows that I just love.

I created the background using distress oxide inks and added little die cut stars cut from glitter cardstock.  The circular mat in the centre is from Simon Says Stamp.  The unicorn is coloured with Copics with some extra glitter added to the tail and horn – obvs!

Yes it’s the third Thursday of the month again (wait, what??  REALLY?)  and that means time for another festive little number to help you along with getting a headstart on your Christmas craft projects.  Dreamed up by Jenn Shurkus, Cheiron Brandon and Chari Moss the idea is to create at least one Christmas card a month so that there is slightly less of a panic come Christmas time!!  I’m joining in again this month along with the awesome Libby Hickson

For today’s card I pulled out some older supplies and went for a rustic look with lots of kraft and copper glitter card.  I used the Splendid Stags dies from Newton’s Nook and added some glitter foliage using the Tim Holtz Mini Greens dies.  The background was done using the Simon Says Stamp Gingham Cling background stamp with Kraft pigment ink from Avery Elle.  The Joy was die cut using a die set from Avery Elle (Peace Love Joy) which is now retired.

Supplies:

Gingham Background Cling Stamp – Simon Says Stamp

Taylored Expressions – Banner Stacklets 1

Tim Holtz Mini Greens Thinlets
