Unity Friends with Flair

 
Hello Friends!

I hope you have all had a wonderful week :) Here is my Friends with Flair entry for this week. I used a white, gray and turquoise colour scheme, it was based on the tag I made a few months ago you can see it HERE.  I wanted to make a card version this time and add some more detail to it.  I used feel the joy stamp for the flowers, the sentiment is from the  Every Breath stamp  set and the butterfly is from A Friend Loveth stamp set.  I embossed some of the flowers with white embossing powder and left some with just a water mark using VersaMark ink. I really like the effect it creates.  I hope you enjoy my card :)

Are you all ready for Christmas??  I wish I could say I am but I am not.  I was meant to fly to Scotland last weekend but got sick with a horrible virus. So we  had to cancel our flights and rebook we now leave this Sunday yay :)  I need to run out tomorrow and get some last minute presents and re pack everything.  Have a good Christmas when it comes around :) Thanks for visiting :)

Unity & Misti Blog Hop

Hello My lovelies :) Welcome to the Unity and Misti blog hop! I  hope you are enjoying seeing all of the projects so far. I just had my first wee play with the Misti tool the other day. It is a very new to me tool and wow do I LOVE it!! It is awesome! Just for the simplest of things like positioning a stamp.  One time is all you need with the Misti!! I am not one of those crafters that gets my stamped images crisp first time. I usually have wasted a card or two before I end up with a perfect image. This tool totally eliminates all of that.  Here is my very first card that I made with the Misti tool and Unity stamps.  I used a stamp called  Scattered Pieces . I LOVE this stamp and the sentiments that come with it.  I positioned the feather and the sentiment at the same time on the Misti.  I totally love that you can do that too!  It lets you stamp several at once instead of just eye b...

Happy Valentine's Day - Craft Stamper Inspiration

Hello my friends happy Valentine's Day!  I made this stamped jar for my inspiration project for the  Craft Stamper Challenge today.  This is my husband's old coffee jar that was heading to the recycling bin. I always like to save them and make something with them.  I gave it a couple of coats of white chalk paint and let it air dry. Next I stamped it with memento ink.  The stamp I used is from Unity called  Smooches and Stuff  by Phyllis Harris.  I just love all of her art work. I let that completely dry then used my alcohol markers to colour it.  While I was at the craft store I found this nice heart kraft ribbon in the Valentine section.  I tied it around the top to finish.  I love the way it turned out. I hope you have some time to come and join in this month's challenge with us.  As always we have wonderful prizes up for grabs.  All of the details ca...
