I'm {inspired} by Unity

I love Unity stamps and I'm sure you do, too if you are visiting me for Friends with Flair!!!! I also love the challenge they have each month. As I mentioned last Friday, I spent a weekend with some scrappin' buddies recently and got 20 pages done. Some of these were 1 page layouts and others were 2 page layouts. One of the pages in this 2 page layout is based off of Unity's layout sketch this month and the color palette. I don't often play the layout sketch challenge, so I am glad I got the chance! I used one of Joslyn Nielson's wit & wisdom stamps on my tag. I think I might own all of the wit & wisdom stamps....they are so cool!!! This one is called Santas, stockings, candy canes, etc. It fit perfectly with my Brunch With Santa title. My daughter was only 1 1/2 here and she was not keen on sitting on Santa's lap. She seems interested this year, though, as she has mentioned it several times. We will see.......

Here is the page I made for the challenge.

The page that goes with it

to make this layout.

Here is a closeup of the tag.

Have a great weekend and check out more great Unity projects here.

It's Unity Friday

Hi everyone! Last weekend I was able to spend some time with my scrappin' buddies and got 20 pages done! I think that is more than I have done in the past 3 years since my little girl was born. I'll have to share some of the pages later. With some of the extra scraps of paper, I made a few cards to share with you tonight/this weekend. They are both sympathy cards and use the same Unity sentiment. "Thinking of you....In your time of need."





Have a great weekend!!!

Friends with Flair is Toadilly Cool

Here is a quick card that I made my son's friend. It was a "Mom....I need a birthday card." ten minutes before we had to go situation. Luckily all of my craft supplies were close by. I had my son choose a stamp and tell me a color (orange). With that I got to work and quickly whipped this up. Not my favorite card, but it was ok, and not my favorite photo....usua;;y I take much clearer ones. Sorry!

Have a great weekend! Go to the Unity blog to check out fabulous projects and the sales.

Back again with Unity FWF

Hi everyone! Hope you are doing well! I have a couple of cards to share with you tonight. The first one was made for Unity's sketch challenge, but I guess I missed the linky date. OOPS! I thought there was another week. :) I used One of a Kind Winter. Love this cute lil snowman! I really do not wish for snow, yet.....but the sentiment goes well with him :)

The second one I made with last week's SOTW.

Have a great weekend!!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #216 and FWF

Hello there! Hope you had a great weekend last weekend! We had beautiful weather and spent some time outside at a high school football game, touring the Mississippi River Museum, and picking grapes for wine. It is going to get cold soon so we need to take advantage of these great Wisconsin Fall days. This week has been super crazy as it is HOMECOMING week and I work in a high school. Just got done with the parade :)
This week, I made a card for a friend at work who is celebrating her birthday. Her favorite color is yellow, so I used that to help choose my papers. I used the sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches.

This is the first time I have participated there and I really like the sketch this week! I can't wait to see the next one. Thanks for checking out my card. I hope you have a great weekend! Looks like it is going to be another super one here. Check out other lovelies at the Unity Blog.

A little washi, a little FWF, and a little challenge

Hi all! A quick post from me tonight. I was inspired by a card made for one of Unity's Thursday blog hops recently. I love washi and have so much of it now. I used it on both of my cards and need to keep it up. Such pretty card can be made fairly simply. Place some pretty washi and stamp a sentiment or vice versa.

My second card is also being entered for Unity's color challenge. Won't you play along?

Have a great weekend!

Map It with Catered Crop Unity Style

Good Saturday to all! I have a project that I want to share with the Catered Crop Recipe Swap. I found some new challenges in the past couple of weeks that I wasnt to try and this is one of them. Tonight's card is for their Map It challenge.

I used Unity's Here for You and Wheely Fun itty bitties. I also used some Nikki Silvis and Cosmo Cricket papers that I have had in my stash for awhile. I thought the little cars driving aroung the U.S.A and the little vehicles driving across the paper were so cute! I hope you like them, too!
