Full of Sunshine

It is a rainy, rainy day here at the Jersey Shore, so I thought this would be a good card to share to brighten the atmosphere! 
The sentiment is from the Phyllis Harris co-brand set, Brandy and Emma: Good Morning. I made this card a long time ago, before Unity came out with so many fun chevron backgrounds. 
So this one was made with a Hero Arts background and Faber Castell Gelatos. It was my first time using Gelatos and they are FUN FUN FUN to play with. 

Check out all of the Unity inspiration over at Friends with Flair on the Unity blog today! While you're at it, there are some AWESOME new releases on the Unity website for CHA....check em out!

Spread Your Wings and Fly

Another Friday means another Unity Friends With Flair! I had great fun making this card that I am sharing today. I started off with a square card. I covered it with glue then layered all of these random circles that I punched from Fancy Pants Summer Soul. I then die cut the square card using Lifestyle Crafts big beautiful butterfly die! It's a HUGE die, I just adore this set of nesting butterfly dies! I tied a piece of jute around the center and tied it in a knot to make the butterflies antennae. I added a beautiful sentiment from Jillibean Soup's Coconut Lime Soup.


Yesterday was Mr. Unity's birthday, and they are celebrating in true Unity style with a great SALE! For every Itty Bitty you purchase, you get one free (up to 10)! How cool is that?! Hop on over and fill your cart!

Just You & Me

I used Unity's Happy Pinwheels set on this layout along with Dear Lizzy paper by American Crafts. 
I punched out some vellum hearts, distressed them a bit then sewed them to the layout by hand, since I don't know how to use my sewing machine :(

Grammy

I made this layout of me and my Grammy from last May. She had fallen and was laid up in bed so I was staying at her house to keep an eye on her at night. Sadly, she went downhill from this point on and passed away 3 days before Christmas. She lived a good long life of 94 years and I was fortunate to have a very close relationship with her. 


This layout is special to me because it represents the love that she showered me and my son with and reminds me of all of the good times I spent with her growing up. 
The Unity sentiment fits perfectly with the way I feel about her! 

Thanks for looking!!!!

Surf's Up

Just another 8.5 x 11 layout I made during my recent Scrappin' in the Woods weekend! We stayed at a hunting lodge off the beaten path, sleeping in a bunk room with 7 sets of bunk beds. It was so laid back and lots of fun! 
This photo is one of Luke from 2 summers ago (I think)! I have to look up the date on my computer and add it to the page so I will remember in years to come. Since I can't remember already, that would be helpful down the road! 
The paper is Rusted Sun, one of last year's summer lines by Fancy Pants. *Notice my washi tape in the upper left hand side! I can't seem to make anything these days without adding at least a little touch of washi!*
Thanks for looking!

This is my first layout from the Washi Workshop. I haven't done much for the workshop yet, but I am enjoying it nonetheless. 


This is my Washi swatch that I made, also from the workshop. This is my growing collection of Washi tape :) Love!
