She could never go back

Happy Tuesday!!!!
So I shared this project last week over on the Unity blog but did not share it here.
Over Christmas vacation I went to Michael's and scored the We R Memory Keepers book binding machine on CLEARANCE I was super excited been wanting this for so long but just did not want to spend the money. Plus I had a gift card so it was a must!!!
This was my first project using it and I have to say at first it scared me but it was super easy to use!! I made this journal using a quote from the KOTM from Unity this is such a great way to showcase these amazing quotes and such an easy way to decorate the cover!!
If you do not have a binding machine there are other ways to make journals I have in the past used my hole punch and used binder rings to keep it together so easy!! Also would make a great gift!!

Tip/Technique Skipping Stones

Hey everyone!!
I am here today to share a skipping stones Designs card for you today!!

Today the design team is sharing their fun tip/techniques with you.

I have been having so much fun experimenting with watercoloring lately and I thought I would share something maybe a new tip for you or maybe I am just sharing something new for me.

I don't know about you but I love finding ways to stretch my stamps.

So for my tip that I am sharing today  I stamped this butterfly using my antique linen distress inks by doing this you get a very light impression but just enough to give you the guidelines of your stamped image and than you can go ahead and add all the pretty colors you want to your butterfly and it gives you an amazing watercolored look but also a very different stamped image.
I used the stamp set Breathtaking Butterflies you can check out that stamp set here.

Also please make sure to check out these lovely ladies for more tip/techniques!!!
Don't forget to leave your comments for your chance to win a skipping stones stamp set!!!

You're Special

Happy Sunday!!
So I got alot done today mainly cleaning the crafty space which felt so good to do.  I really need that motivation so I can start doing some regular crafting.
So does anyone have any crafty resolutions??
I know I am going to try and manage my time a little better I say this every year but I do want to craft more it is just I get side tracked very easily and than I end up getting nothing done LOL.

So onto the card I got out this beautiful set from precious remembrance I love the scribbly flowers so fun!! I colored the image with my distress markers and just added some splatters of color and some fun gems and that is it!!
Have a great day and I will see you soon!!
