Celebrate

One of my favorite stamp companies is Unity stamps.  So i had to share a couple cards this month using their great images.  Here's one that I thought was very fitting for the occasion.  She very much looks like she is in celebration, which is perfect! I added some wonderful paisley from Turkiye to go with it.
I have some great unity stamp prizes and unity stamp grab bags as prizes this month. I know everyone LOVE them, they have the highest quality rubber stamps (mounted not on wood).  If you are not familiar with them, I totally recommend you check them out on their website or their facebook groups.

Question of the day?  

Among Unity stamps and other stamp companies, what kind of stamps do you like?

As for me, I love their lady stamps, I love their animals, esp cats and dogs, I love sentiments, I love skulls and halloween.  So fun.

Love this celebration girl, am a massive Unity lover! I love their coffee and tea motifs, love their Angie girls (although I don't think I have even a dozen of them.) I love their other girls and have been catching up on the vintage girls recently. I love many of the animals that they offer and oh, have nabbed the gnomes and mushrooms that have come out the last few months. I got a job recently and so am currently treating myself to all of the clubs, wish they hadn't discontinued SMAK, but bought several just before the end of the year. Love love love Unity!!!

Wow Holley, this is such a beautiful card and I love the way you colored her. Let's see, my favorite Unity images are animals, fairies and gnomes, and things that don't need a lot of coloring. I'm terrible at coloring people, and wish I were as good at it as you are.

This is such a pretty card and wonderful image for your celebration. I don't own any Unity Stamps but I've seen that Love Puppies by Graciellie everywhere recently and it certainly is adorable.

Sandra said...

Beautiful card Holley!!! Love this stamp from Unity, have it still on my wishlist haha.
Unity is my favorite stamp brand, and I love their flower stamps and backgrounds, but also the little animal stamps, well, I think I love everything from them!!

Kathy H said...

Very cool, I love this stamp.

Debra Bagato said...

I love UNITY the most! Their coffee and planner girls are my favorite (until I get my new order ha ha) ur card is amazing! I never thought to use her outside of a 4th of July card.

Gaye said...

I like the Bible journal stamps. Coffee and tea stamps are great too.

Susan T. said...

Perfect card for a celebration! The sentiment is so true and perfect for this time. I love all holiday stamps, particularly St Patrick’s Day, Easter, and 4th of July. Flowers and sentiments are on my list, too. I never seem to have the right words for my cards.

Em Louise Fairley said...

She's beautiful. I love sentiment stamps or floral xoxo

KT Fit Kitty said...

Your colouring is beautiful, Holley, such a gorgeous card! And what a wonderful sentiment too! Perfect for your celebration! I like stamps and my favorites are cats and other animals.

Linda said...

I love the stamp you used on your cute card. It makes me think of my 2 granddaughters that are in high school. I think you can never go wrong with florals because they can be used for many occasions. I also like motivational or inspirational stamps. I love Unity Stamps because the red rubber stamps so crisp. The company runs sales which allows us to be able to purchase at an affordable price.❤️

Super fun stamp! I wish I could color them in like you do. I kinda like Susan Weckesser's wonky houses. They are kinda fun too.

cebelica said...

I also like Unity stamps. What I like about their stamps is their versatility. They can realy be used in many different ways.
As for mw, I especially like winter/Christmas stamps (especially Christmas trees or cute animals, who are ready for some winter/Christmas fun) and flower stamps.

Kellyskardsfl said...

Adorable card!! I love, love, love coffee, tea or cocoa stamps. I also love animals, flowers and any stamps related to fall (but not Halloween) I really love MFT stamps too.

Jean said...

A beautiful card! I love Unity stamps. Such lovely designs - perfect for every occasion. I love floral stamps the most.

papersmiles said...

Holley, before following your blog I hadn't bought many Unity stamps but now I am a big fan. My favorites are sentiments, lady, coffee and anything Halloween. The quality is sooooo high which makes stamping with them a pleasure. Hugs, Barbara

Anita Mitchell said...

I love this fun card. As for me, I love all kinds of stamps. I am a fan of many. Lady, uplifting sayings, coffee, fun, and so many more. Oh ya, don't forget the butterflies! lol <3

Kathy Dippner said...

Beautiful card! I love Unity also. I gravitate toward flower and cat images but try to buy sets that will work with what I already have in my collection. And I'm always on the lookout for sentiments for both the inside and outside.

Rachel Duong said...

The girl image you used is one of my absolute favorites! I always look forward to your beautiful Turkish lace. It is amazing. The way you colored her is great. I love Unity! I love people stamps and cute animals and humorous ones too because we all need laughter in our day! I definitely look for quirky unique and interesting images as well. I love everything!

Mel C said...

Lovely card Holley! I don’t have any Unity stamps, I like: Trucks, barns, Texas stuff of course, cowboy/cowgirls, (I love the Bingo card with LIFE at the top, that you have) dogs, Postage Stamps/Postcards.

StampNK said...

This is a beautiful card and I like the way you added the sentiment in strips. Unity stamps are favorites of mine and I like animals, especially realistic designs, and coffee or tea. One type of stamp I don't usually use are religious sayings or images. Thank you Holley.

Janis said...

Lovely card, Holley! That girl is perfect for your celebration and the sentiment is great. Love the lace.
I love Unity stamps, but don't really do the girls.....or "people" stamps of any sort too much. I love realistic animal images, esp cats, and I love the sentiment sets....particularly the Bible verses. I also love silhouette stamps (don't have to color them and can instead have a fun background.) I love background stamps and "patterned" images where the animal or flower, etc has perhaps a scripty pattern inside the outline. Not sure I am describing that very well. lol...
Thank you for this wonderful month of fun!

No, I don’t have any unity stamps. They are interesting but I haven’t bought any yet.

Amy Martin said...

Beautiful card and sentiment. I love Unity!!! I love their angie girls and their mixed media stamps. I like animal stamps especially realistic designs. Flowers, backgrounds, gnomes, mushrooms, butterflies, and some unusual stamps I can use in mixed media. I also love anything american Indian like feathers, dreamcatchers or Teepees.

Claudia Martins said...

Hi Holley!! Beautiful card and sentiment. I love Unity!!! I love their angie girls .I really like girls stamps, cute and sweets stamps and halloween stamps.

Dana M said...

I love Unity Stamp company too. That is such a fun image and fabulous cards. Gina K, Simon Says Stamp and PinkFresh Studios are some of my other favorites.

Amazing work!

Carolyn said...

I love Unity stamps and have subscribed for many years. I love the Angie girls and gracallie stamps/ sentiments.
The KOM and now Whit kit fill many needs that come up.
Love your card �💞

Karenladd said...

You color people so well, but I don't usually use stamps with realistic people on them because I'm still a beginner. I do love animals, nature themes, vintage images, silhouettes (like that sweet Playful Pixie stamp), and images that can fit together to make a scene.

Audrey R said...

Holley - I love today’s card! Girlfriends are just so special. I love coffee and latte stamps, flowers, inspiration sayings, and am looking for cactus stamps to use with some beautiful cactus papers that I have!
