Unity Friends with Flair (11.05.2012)

Happy it's Friday!!  Are you excited with all the NEW Unity stamps?  I guess you know my favourite - definitely some Phyllis Harris stamps... I can't wait to get my hands on these....!!


All of them are awesome but this one is just darling... I want to HUG the little girl!!

On to my FWF card for today - I tried something different and used the Unity NSD sketch for inspiration.  I don't scrapbook but I love the sketch and decided perhaps I could use it for a card.

Here's the sketch:

I love the 3 blocks on the sketch and all I could think of was glass panels... LOL!  Guess there wasn't room in the card for full sized glass door panels but maybe windows?  Here's my take on the sketch...

Of all the Brandy & Emma stamps, this is my favourite.  The bond between a girl and her dog is just precious.  I used lots of Copic Markers to colour the image - Brandy (E21, E30, E31, E33, E35, R20), Emma (R20, R22, R24, R27 R30, E50, E13, E15, E18, W3, W7, B91, B93, B95, B97, B99) & Outline (B0000).

I measured 3 equal sized panels and cut the panels using a 3/4" square punch and adhered it on top of the stamped image with foam adhesive for some dimension.  The patterned papers are from Webster's Pages and the paper flowers from Prima.

Hope you like the card.  Please be sure to check out the rest of the FWF participants on the Unity blog and hop along with us.

Thank you for visiting me.  Have a fabulous day!
Kary
