{10.17.2011} Unity Stamp Company & Spellbinders 2-Day Blog Hop
Welcome to our TWO-day event!
You should be joining me from Beth Pingry’s blog, if not then head to the beginning on the Unity Stamp Co. blog.
With all the blog-swaps that are happening out there lately, I can’t think of one more exciting than when the amazing women of SPELLBINDERS get together with the rockstars of UNITY STAMP COMPANY!
We can’t wait to show you a special line of coordinating products featuring SPELLBINDERS dies and SAMANTHA WALKER for Unity Stamp Co. rubber stamps! Not only are we thrilled to be collaborating on such a special 2-day event, but ONE of you will win ALL of the coordinating stamps and dies from the Samantha Walker collection! We will ALSO have 1 winner each day from the comments that will receive 1 Samantha Walker stamp set and coordinating dies.
So be sure to enjoy our hop both days, leave comments on all of the blogs each day and check back to see if you won! (winners will be posted on Wednesday, October 19th on the Unity Blog and Spellbinders Blog)
I’m using the fabulous Ornate Artisan Stackers stamps and dies today.
And in honor of the hop, Unity has placed all of the Samantha Walker matching stamps on sale!!! Make sure you visit the WEBSITE HERE to see them all.
Get ready for a TON of pictures.
I’ll try to keep it short as there is LOTS to see today.
Hello lovelies.
I can’t tell you how much I LOVE these stamps and the fact that it has matching dies… CRAZY awesome. I created this fun cutout card and matching bookmark/gift tag.
This sweet 4 x 4.25 card is covered in lovely stamped goodness. I’m also using some stamps from Cuckoo Clocks as well. The die cut really made the cut out super easy to create and the matching stamp just fits perfectly on the inside. I then layered die cuts and stamps to create a super cute birthday card.
{ETA: since there is so much interest, watch for a video soon on how to create this cutout card.}
This little belly band keeps it all closed and once removed you get the grand reveal.
Super fun right?
I wanted to include a little bookmark keepsake for a friend. It could easily be turned into a little gift tag with the addition of a ribbon. These stamps are amazing… how they layer together and create so many different combinations. Then the dies make cutting so easy.
I am TOTALLY in LOVE.
Now please head over to Kazan Clark’s blog.
