Hi everybody! Kim here, for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps to celebrate and Sponsor 'International Women's Day' which is kicking off today with a Blog Hop, a Linky Party, and an Instagram Hop from March 8-31, 2020 IST. And the fun part is...you can join us too! Details below...
March 8th is a day aimed to help nations worldwide eliminate discrimination against women, but as not to leave our guys out...International Men's Day is also celebrated on November 19 each year. But today is ALL about our wonderful women!
The idea behind this hop started last year with 10 amazing women card makers who wanted to encourage other women through their crafts. Just a small word of encouragement from fellow women goes a long way and can do wonders. So let us come together again and empower our sisters all around the world. Wow! Pretty awesome, right? We look forward to building a positive environment with your support.
For today's project: I was inspired by the beauty and strength of our fabulous CFS 'Be A Unicorn' stamp set, with coordinating 'Unicorn Fri-Die' to create this amazing project with distress inks, heat embossing, and some metallic sparkle.

Tutorial: I started with an A2 white card base and a gray/white star patterned paper ½” smaller and adhered to the card. To make the unicorn I used an “ink smooshing” technique on watercolor cardstock using distress inks, details in my ‘categories’ in the right side bar. Once dry, stamp the unicorn with Versamark clear ink, sprinkled with silver embossing powder, and heat set. Using a die cutting machine, cut out the unicorn with coordinating die cut. And adhere to the card. I love how detailed it is. Isn’t she beautiful? Then I stamped this meaningful sentiment with distress oxide ink, because it’s thick, sprinkled with clear embossing powder, and heat set. And it shows the color beautifully. Using a die cut from my stash and blue metallic cardstock, I cut out the flourish piece and all the stars, and adhered to the card with liquid glue to complete this sparkly beauty.
Here is a close up of all that beauty and sparkle...I hope I've inspired you to support women everywhere through our crafts and our kindness.
