FWF Friday ~ Unity Stamp Company

Hey everyone! Happy Friday!! Here I have a card I made using some hand designed paper, some home made ribbon and some cardstock. Of course Unity stamps were also used (Donna Downey's - Be Still and Happy Everything. I used some Color Wash inks I have, some alcohol and triangular makeup pads to streak the paper with various colors. I used some new Dylusion inks and Tattered Angels inks and some damp Hug Snug seam binding to make the ribbon. I love how the colors turned out.




I hope to use more of my hand designed paper and ribbon in the near future to make more cards.



I will share when I have them finished. Have a great day and a great weekend. How's the weather where you are? The weather here is cold and icky...still snowing a bit and raining (normal 59 degrees - today 41). I am ready for some warm, sunny days!

Take Care!

    Oh, that is one of my very favorite techniques! I usually make a ton, when I do it, cause I just can't stop. Great card!
