It is Friends with Flair {FWF} Friday at UNITY… a day full of inspiration from Unity Stampers. The list of participating Friends with Flair hoppers can be found at Angela’s Unity Blog. Just a hint… someone has a secret blinkie that could win you some awesome Unity rubber!!!!
The stamps are from the Unity June 2009 KOM. I love, love, love this tree. When I first saw it, I immediately thought about a Christmas card. Then I proceeded to forget about it for a while. Silly me. When I was flipping through my stamps this week I found it again and clapped my hands (ok, maybe a little squeal slipped out too). I stamped it on kraft cardstock and then embossed it in white. I love how it is featured on top of the swiss dotted circle card base. I think the splash of aqua ribbon just makes it look crisp and wintery.
I can finally play along with Caardvarks again!!! I had to take a bit of an absence since times have been busy. I love this challenge for a circle card. Circle cards have been difficult task for me in the past, but I LOVE how this one turned out.
I also took inspiration from the Flourishes My Favorite Things (yip, the song from the Sound of Music) song challenge. We are to take a line from the song as inspiration and I choose brown paper packages tied up with strings.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.
