Unity Friends with Flair (02.12.2011)


Hello Weekend!  It's Saturday morning where I am, and I'm glad for the weekend.  Nothing planned, just hope to have a good rest.  I made this card late last night - for some reason, I wanted to use the flower block image from KOM Sep 2011 with a stamp-a-ma-jig ;-)

Here's a close up pic:

I used Stickles on the dots of the image blocks and coloured the sentiment with colourpencils and went over it with a clear glitter pen.  I added a strip of tape just above and below the twine, and poured some fine glitter on the top strip and chunky Champagne glitter on the bottom strip.  The patterned paper was cut with a Wonky Scallop border and pleated.

Hope you'll remember to swing by the Unity Blog to see all the Amazing ideas the participants will be sharing today, and you might win some Unity goodies.

Thanks for visiting me today.  Don't forget to check out my final Giveaway post - for a chance to win the Spellbinders Wonky Rectangles!!

Have a wonderful weekend!!
