Unity Kicks Off the Holidays!

Goodbye Septmber, hello October! I'm pretty certain that October is the best month of the year. The weather is perfect and it's time for new holiday releases! Yippee! The Unity hop today will be filled with all sorts of holiday inspiration. Happy hopping and happy shopping :)

First I had to create with the deer head image in the brand new October Kit of the Month...



After I colored the banner and the wreath, I coated the deer in glue and covered it in a dark teal fine glitter. Then I accented the wreath and horns with some red Stickles.


This week there are a lot of new mini-kits, including this fun ugly sweater kit! I love all three, but I'm so so excited to finally have some ugly sweater stamps!



I colored the sweaters with Prismacolor pencils and fussy cut. The paper in the background is new DCWV flocked paper that I lightly distressed in blue.




There are always PRIZES at Unity!! Leave comments throughout the hop for a chance to win this great set of Itty Bitty stamps!!


Hope you leave here inspired for some holiday card making! Have a fabulous October weekend!

Your next stop is the always lovely SHEMAINE
