Happy Valentine's Day!

I made this card for my hubby for Valentine's Day, using one of my Unity Stamp of the Weeks.  The patterned paper is Yours Truly from Echo Park.  Twice now in the past week I have been looking for a small heart punch (yes, I have a few other heart ones, but no small one) and then I remembered I had bought some chipboard from Stampin Up, and sure enough, there were hearts ~ yippee!! I sprayed it with Tattered Angels and then covered it with red stickles.

Hope you all have a great Valentine's Day.

TGIF - FWF Friday!!!

Whoo hoo - it's Friday, yippee!!!  I can't believe how long it's been since I've posted anything.  I guess I got all caught up with Christmas, and after making all my Christmas cards, I really haven't been too creative lately.  Today's card was made for a dear co-worker whose dog passed away.  The stamp set is from Unity, from the Phyllis Harris series.  It was the perfect set, as the dog that passed away was a golden retriever.  Hope you all have a terrific weekend.

A couple of challenges

Good monday morning everyone :)  I got quite a bit of crafty time this weekend, and finished up cards for a couple of challenges.  The one below I entered in the Unity Brandy & Emma colouring contest, see details here and I'm also using it as an entry to the Hazard County Card Challenge to use a stamp set we hadn't inked up yet.

TGIF - FWF Friday!!!

Whoo hoo !!! it's Friday.  My card for today I created for my son's grade 2 teacher, as we had a meeting with her last week, and she was very honest about how he was doing and I know it was hard for her to have the conversation.  The definition is from the Unity / Donna Downey co-brand set Advent! and the Merci is from one of the past kits of the month.  With our son being in French Immersion, this stamp gets alot of use.
Sorry for the blurry picture, my camera didn't want to focus properly.

Unity KOM Sketch Challenge

Good Monday morning everyone!  I got a bit of time to get crafty this weekend, so I decided to take part in the Unity KOM Sketch Challenge.  The card below is made with a few Unity kits;  the sentiment is from the Feb'11 KOM 'the best is yet to be' and hearts down the middle of the tag are from the June'10 KOM 'Fly....Free'.  I also used a Store Kit (but I can't remember the name, it has to do with Family and Generations) for the circle journalling background and the other stamp on the tag. 

Friends with Flair Friday

Good morning all!  TGIF!  I made this card awhile back using a great kit from Unity that was on sale during their warehouse sale.  To be honest, I bought a couple at that price to give to friends - love to spread the Unity around.  Good news ~ it's on sale again if you're interested for only $2!!!!.  Check it out here.  This was a quick card I created while playing around with ideas for Christmas cards this year.  It was so quick and easy, I may make a stash of them.

Giveaway on Dear Lizzy blog...

Elizabeth Kartchner is doing a giveaway on her blog... a December Daily Studio Calico & Ali Edwards kit.  I tried to do the December Daily last year, took all my pictures, pre-cut all my pages and still have yet to assemble... maybe I can get it done before December.  And if I win the giveaway, this kit would make it so much easier to do.  Crossing my fingers :)  Go check it out here.
