Unity Friends with Flair Friday

Please scroll down to see this weeks Get Sketchy Challenge! Although we are sponsered by Jazzy Stamps - I did sneak a Unity stamp in there too!

This is my post for the Unity Friends with Flair Friday. These are always so much fun and give me a great excuse (as if I need one!) to play with my Unity stamps. To see all the participants start at Angela's blog and then hop away!

The sketch this week from Inspirational Card Sketches:

For my card, I flipped the sketch and I used a few (5 to be exact!) Unity Stamps. I love the music background stamp and the little owl! I incorporated the Embellish Magazine color challenge as well. Not a challenge for me at all - gray and pink - easy peesy! I used some Hero Arts rhinestones on the owls tummy who by the way is mounted on a foam square.


Pattern Paper: October Afternoon
Cardstock & Ink: CTMH
Stamps: Unity
Ribbon: PTI

I did another card for the Unity Friends with Flair Friday.

The sketch this week from Card Positioning Systems:

This is my card for the Friends with Flair Friday from Unity. I have so much fun using my Unity stamps! To see what everyone has created this week, start here at Angela's blog, then keep hopping. You may win some great goodies!

For my card I incorporated the Practical Scrappers challenge to use office supplies. I dug out my neglected tag die from Sizzix and stamped it with 2 background Unity stamps. This is also for the Caardvarks challenge - a tall card.
Pattern Paper: Pink Paislee, Papertrey Ink
Stamps: Unity (4 of them!) and Pink Paislee (butterfly)
Charm, Ink and fiber: CTMH
ribbon: stash
punch (postage): fiskars
Sizzix
mini paper clip: Tim Holtz
