Unity's Friends with Flair 4.18.14

 I needed a couple of anniversary cards this month and I have wanted to try the box cards from Lori Whitlock (where I also linked up!).  I cut these from a Silhouette file and added more flowers from the Sizzix Stamp & Die-cut "Garden Flowers" set.

The really surprising thing about these cards is they fold flat and fit into an A2 envelope!!!!

I wrote my greeting on a flap that will be showing when you take it out of the envelope.

I used a stamp from Unity's "You Did It" itty bitty.

It rained 1 inch today (at least it wasn't snowing!)! 

Spring is fickle!

Unity's Friends With Flair 4.11.14

This is a "Thank You" card with a little spring/Easter theme. I wanted to try my new Garden Bench die from Elizabeth Crafts and Karen Burniston. So much fun!

The Unity Stamp is a Phyllis Harris image from the "Forever Friends" set.

I hope you like this card. Have a Happy Easter!

Unity Friends with Flair 3.21.14

This is a birthday card for my sister.  The sentiment if from the Balloons to You Itty Bitty. The paper is Maggie Holmes for Crate Paper.

Have a great weekend! I hope you have Spring time weather!!!

Unity's FWF 3.7.14

A little birthday card or two! The stamps are from the May 2010 KOM ( a little happy) and the April 2013 ( celebrate the good times).  Love the cut out for the butterfly that I cased this idea from Audrey Pettit for Sizzix Inspiration. This is an easy card!

Unity's FWF 2.21.14

This is a flip card (the die is designed by Stephanie Barnard for Sizziz) for my husband's (the golfer) birthday. I used the "Fore" stamp set (thanks Angie Blom) and the "Damn... your're old" set designed by Joslyn Nielsen.

Thanks for looking!

Unity's FWF 1.24.14

Here is a card for a male friend who is recuperating from surgery. Inside I wrote "It is time to feel better!"  Then I worried that the clocks could be misconstrued as "time is running out" or something equally as terrible!!! UGH! Stamp is Day & Night Itty Bitty.

Core'dinations Card Sketch 1.20.14 attempt 2!

Here is my second attempt at the Core'dinations Card Sketch!

I used Core Impressions Ornate Collection for Basic Grey. The stickers behind the labels (Sizzix) are from the Maggie Holmes Collection for Crate Paper. The rhinestones are from Queen & Co. The banner is from the Tim Holtz Alterations line for Sizzix and the ink is Memento.

Thanks for looking!!!!

Unity Stamp Company's FWF - 6.28.13

This is a "Flip-It" card for a friend's retirement. The Sizzix dies are by Stephanie Barnard. The patterned paper is Maggie Holmes by Crate Paper. The stamp is from Unity's "Everything Wonderful" set. 

Pop N Cuts - Anniversary

This is a fun card for my daughter and son-on-law's anniversary. The pp is Maggie Holmes for Crate Paper. I love this new line and want to use it for everything yet hoard it at the same time. Am I alone in this paper craze? All of the ephemera is from this collection.  The die is Karen Burniston's by Sizzix. "Happy Anniversary" is from K&Company's Smash collection, the twine is from my stash!

Unity's Friends with Flair

This week's entry for FWF is a Sizzix (by Karen Burniston) Pop N Cuts die card. I love an interactive card and these are so fun to embellish. I used "Emma's Shoppe" patterned paper by Crate Paper, Memento ink, Copics, Imaginisce flags, dies from Sizzix (Love Set) and QuicKutz (Nesting Label), and, of course, Unity's stamps from "Moments to Remember"!

The rest of the Valentines for 2012

I love this Crate Paper line! I was inspired!

Crate Color Challenge!

I love this Valentine's Crate paper line.  I made all my Valentine's with it!

The challenge was to use gray, coral and a peach pink! This line fits the challenge.

Thanks Crate Paper!

Goodbye Rachel :-(

A friend of my daughter's is going to Africa for a year! Her parents gave her a going away barbeque and requested that we bring letters for Rachel to open when she gets homesick. So here are the cards that I made for my daughter to write notes.
