More Gray cards

Hello, friends:)


I just wanted to upload some of my gray cards....before the deadline!! These cards were made for the Gray is the New Black Challenge in the Moxie Fab World. I love love love love all these frames on this card. This is a very simple card--but packed with DETAIL! Love it:} I used my Unity Happy Everything set for that beautiful glittered butterfly. 

I also want to enter this fun card--it was created for the Play Date Cafe challenge. LOVE these colors together. I also love love love those flocked birds! You can read more about it HERE.

That's it for me today--short and sweet. I do have TONS more to share...so I am hoping to get more time today to write up some posts and create some more! Thanks so much for stopping by! LOVE sharing with you! LOVE playing along with challenges! Be blessed!

I love how this card turned out! I used the Limelight sketch and chipboard challenge, Off The Wall Craftiness colors, and the challenge for ATU#23! LOVE it!

EIC #123 {Nanny's Room}

Hello, friends:}

First--HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Kevin!! Hope you have a fun filled day with LOTS of celebrating YOU!!!

Second--today is another fun day over at EtsyInspired. LOVE LOVE LOVE this challenge! We are headed over to Nanny's Room for inspiration this week! I was inspired by oh so many pieces--but this card set made me stop and create. I used my Unity Dec. 2010 KOTM set for that beautiful flower image. I also used my Sparkling H2Os for the coloring--along with glitter and Liquid Pearls. LOVE how simple this is--and still so beautiful! LOVE it! 

This next card was inspired by this beautiful hummingbird necklace. I had a hummingbird {Unity April 2010 KOTM} stamped...but it took away from the modern simplicity of this card. So then I turned my inspiration to what the hummingbird would be hovering by--a flower! I love this CAS card--I used Unity's April 2010 KOTM flower stamp with Unity's Encompassed Grace sentiment. LOVE it! I am also entering this into the Gray is the New Black Challenge in the Moxie Fab World. 

That's it for me today, but be sure to stop by all the EIC DT members' blogs to see their fabulous creations!! What a great team with lots of talent!!

FWF Jan. 21--lots of challenges!!

Hello, friends:}


First of all--happy happy FRIDAY! It's FWF over on the Unity blog! Be sure to stop there for a complete list of participants! And check out this flyer from Unity! Oh how I wish wish wish I was rich--I would order each of the new sets! 


Second--WOW! I cannot remember a week that I was able to craft like I did this week! I was sewing and gluing and just LOVIN' it!! Here is what I created! 

 

This first card was created for the CARDS {butterflies}, Wee Memories {ribbon}, CR84FN {color story}, FWF60 {inspiration card by Cathy} challenges, as well as the Paper Crafts Jan. challenge {v-day}. That's a lot of challenges! I never thought this one little card would fit--but it does!! LOOOOOOOOVE that ribbon [available at Limelight]. LOVE those ruffles. I used my Unity butterfly [Remember Happiness] and sentiment [When I'm With You] stamps. I also used my Ippity music [Music of my Heart] for the corner circle. LOVE how this turned out! 

This next card was also created for the  Wee Memories challenge. I also am entering it for the Cupcake Inspirations challenge {photo}. I have to admit--I had this card designed and made last week....but I didn't like the paper I used...then I saw Emily {Unity GDT} and her pair of shoes [photo to the right]...ACK! Great minds think alike! However, I only had one and no gem in the center of the glitter...so I am CASING that idea! LOVE how her shoes look! These high heels are from Unity's To The Moon and Back set. LOVE it! And you might remember...that zebra print is actually tissue paper:} LOVE IT! 

Sentiment::: High heels were invented by a woman who had been kissed on the forehead. Christopher Morley

This card is so cute! LOVE all the layers--I try to be more detailed...and sometimes it works! This card is being entered into the CardPatterns 98 challenge. I love this paper [available at Paper Maniac]! I wanted a masculine card--that could be birthday, love, have a great day...for almost any occasion. LOVE how this turned out! I used the Unity 6 pack essentials for the owl along with Unity's What A Hoot! set for the sentiment. 

**NOTE:: I wanted to be a bit different--and I used staples instead of gems for the top corner. I really like how it turned out! REALLY! 

 My last card was created for iheartart's {sketch} and All Things Unity {mini card} challenges. I love this paper! And this stamp set [Unity Heart Times]. LOVE IT! simple!  This mini is only 3 x 3 inches! Don't forget to play along with us--click HERE to link up!

**NOTE:: Again, I tried to be different. The three gems turned into three words. LOVE it:}

That's it for me! Be sure to stop by the Unity blog for more players in FWF! LOVE LOVE LOVE looking and hopping on these blogs! So much eye candy:} And be sure to leave some love--you could win FREE Unity! 


Thanks so much for stopping by! LOVE visiting with you! Be blessed:}

Welcome back to another fabbbby color challenge over at The Play Date Cafe! Last week was AWESOME--so many gorgeous creations! I loved seeing all these projects--and our new team is so talented and supportive! LOVE LOVE LOVE the PDCC:}

This week's color story has been picked by Sarah. OH--just love this inspirational photo! I was immediately drawn to those birds. Aren't they so cute!? I created a very simple card for this color story. I used a gray background with paper pieced trees {Unity Primitive Wildness}. Then I flocked the birds! OH MY--so cute! LOVE how this turned out!

That's it for me today--but be sure to stop by this super talented PDCC DT group!
