Today is Friends with Flair Friday and this week I made 2 cards. I love to see what everyone does with their Unity stamps. They are fantastic stamps I love them! To start at the beginning of the list of participants go to Angela's blog, you will love what you see!
This is the bonus sketch from 2 Sketches 4 You this week.
I flipped the sketch and love how this card turned out. I always have trouble using Cosmo Cricket papers (as much as I love what everyone else creates with them) but I do like this one. The stamp is from the Unity Store kit that can be purchased at Paper Maniac. I just got it yesterday so it felt good to ink it up so soon!
Pattern Paper: Cosmo Cricket, Jillibean SoupCardstock, Ink and fiber: CTMH
ribbon and vellum: stash
buttons: PTI
snowflake punch: Marvy
The Card Positioning Systems sketch for this week:
I was determined to use as many Unity stamps as I could as I really need to justify the purchases! LOL! I like how so many of these fit together with the same theme. I used the music background, distressed dots, the sentiment and bird stamp all from Unity. The bird is mounted with foam squares.
Cardstock: Close to My Heart (Bubblegum, Sweet Leaf, Breeze and White Daisy)Stamps: Unity and PTI (background text)
Ink: Breeze, Black and Bubblegum (CTMH)
