Friends of Unity Vintage Blog Hop + Giveaways

Welcome to our July Friends of Unity Blog Hop where several amazing designer friends and myself share our love (and obsessions) of all things Unity Stamps each month and where we share lots of Unity GIVEAWAYS too!!! 

Scroll down to enter & get ready for some amazing inspiration!!! 

But before I get started...check back to all of our June Blog Hops to see if you are one of the many Winners and claim your prizes! Holly R. 

is a Winner here at My Kraft Kloset, for June 2019!Congratulations!!! 

Our theme for this months Blog Hop is...Vintage!!!
So, what is Vintage? Well, according to Webster's:  something antique is also vintage,  

but something vintage isn't necessarily antique, because to be classified as an antique 

it has to be over 100 years old. Interesting, right?

I'm more of a modern girl, so I was quite challenged with this months 'Vintage' theme.

 I drew my inspiration from old fashioned dresses, probably from our wedding theme last month, as I still had dress stamps all over my craft table. But also, while going through my craft stash, I came across vintage looking sewing patterns and postage stamps with vintage writing, flowers, and buttons that all went well together too! That's why I LOVE our monthly themes! They really challenge me to think outside of the box and look at what I have, mix and match and to use things in unexpected or unintended ways and turn them into something new and extraordinary. 

Thank you for stopping by!

Moose You So Much Card

Hi everybody! It's been a whole year today since my dear sister lost her battle with breast cancer. I will miss her today, forever, and always. She was taken to young and was a mother of twins too, a very special bond we both shared; a very talented graphic designer and an avid card maker; and she just loved the craft world. She never saw a moose in person, but loved them so much. Little did I know this would be the last birthday card I ever made for her. It reminds me of that cute movie "Open Season" and makes me laugh at how silly it was. But brings a smile to my face and makes me think of her. We "Moose you so much" Karla! xoxo

For a complete supply list and tutorial, click "here."

I hope I've inspired you to mix border bunches with embossing folders and how to use pink and plaid together for an Autumn card. 

Thanks for stopping by!

One Sheet Wonder - Thank You Cards

 Happy New Year! I hope 2017 finds you happy, healthy, and crafty. And speaking of crafty I continue our family tradition of making "thank you" cards after the holidays. I was taught by my mom, who was taught by her mom, to send thank you notes for gifts. And it's my ongoing resolution to continue that tradition with all four of my kids too. Of course in today's day and age they would rather send an email note, which I think is better than nothing, but I prefer they do it properly. So, if I make the handmade cards then they will write a special note and sign them. See complete tutorial and supply list here: http://mykraftkloset.weebly.com/blog/one-sheet-wonder-thank-you-cards
