Unity Hip Hop - November 2017



Hello! Today is the monthly Unity Hip Hop - and also start of the Brown Thursday Sale! The DT is hopping along with inspiration, Quick Tip videos, and a look at some of the new releases to inspire you. There are also (of course!) - prizes!!! This would also be a great opportunity to check out the NEW Unity Blog and Website - it is beautiful!


Here is the Quick Tip video I made for this card - showing how to get a dimensional popped up sentiment - hard to see in photos, but such a fun cool effect! I used the new and beautiful Warmest Wishes stamp set:



I watercolored this beautiful image, then had fun die cutting a word die out of the center, popping it up on Fun Foam, and covering it with a couple coats of Tonic Crystal Glaze (very similar to Glossy Accents - lots of beautiful shine!). Just a fun little way to add a little something extra to a card!


Here is the entire blog hop line-up...make sure and hop along and leave comments at every stop to have a chance to win this month's prize!




Product links are all below - including affiliate links where possible, which simply means if you use one of the links below that I receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!!!

  10. I watched the video, you make it look easy! :) I need to find my craft foam. I know I have some left but my room is a disaster. LOL when Irma blew in I was afraid a tree might fall on my room and I could imagine all my papers flying through the neighborhood. Ha, that's not why I am here though. I love your card! Beautiful! The technique is such fun!!!
