Unity Thursday!

Morning! Today is ALL about Unity! Be sure to check out the Unity blog for ALL the details.

Here is a little mini I put together with this month's Scrapbooking/Collage kit- Capture Life. I paired it with some yummy NUTMEG from Cosmo Cricket. :)

Hope you have a WONDERFUL Thursday! :)

Monday, Monday.....

Don't they seem to go too fast? Never enough time to get what needs to be done on a Monday. :)

***so it is officially official*** you can check it out HERE.

I almost forgot to share some photos from the Seattle CKC. :) I had a blast hanging with some super talented peeps! :)

Here is Kim Kesti doing a FABULOUS job teaching the Paper Crafts classes! :)

WOW! How did I get so lucky to be surrounded by such talent? (Megan, Kim, me & Lisa)

Lisa is strong & crafty! :) Love her!

Some of the BEST volunteers around! :)

Lisa helped get the card swap ready.

Jordan's 1st grade teacher turned up in a Paper Crafts class!! So great to see a familiar smile!

Lots of group shots with sweet Teri, Teri's mom, Kim & Lisa! :)

I can't wait for the 2010 CKC season to start!! :)

Hope you had an adventurous and productive Monday!

Friends With Flair- Clean & Simple Paper Piecing

It is FRIDAY! YEAH!! Time to show some flair. :) I decided to play around with CHA Winter kits. I know some of you pre-ordered them a couple weeks ago......but the rest will have to wait awhile. :) My focus for these cards was on paper piecing. I love this technique. :)


Grow Yourself Extraordinary pieced with Nutmeg.


Girl of the Moment pieced with some more YUMMY Nutmeg from Cosmo Cricket.


Margarita Moments pieced with some Sassafras Lass Amplify.

Berry Good Life pieced with Nook and Pantry by Basic Grey. :)

Kitchen Logic pieced with some Sassafras Lass Sweet Marmalade.

Be sure to check out the Unity blog for a whole list of BLOG BEAUTY! :)

Clean & Simple...The Artist In You....

Today, Unity is releasing the Donna Downey kit....the Artist in You! This kit is amazing & artistic!
I stamped the gorgeous tree out 2x for this one and cut out the green one and layered it on top. I like the dimension this added to the tree.
Here is a super clean & simple card. Just a little white gel pen for detail and a few cut out hearts from some Bo Bunny paper. This card was inspired by some Jillibean Soup paper, that small strip across the center.
What an amazing sentiment! I went a bit crazy with my Stampin Up markers! :)
I had a hard time capturing a photo of this one. This card also used Bitty Backgrounds. The sentiment was stamped on the base and then again on a piece of acetate that was adhered to the card. I added some brown crackle paint along the edge.

Be sure to check the Unity Stamp Company blog for more links to inspiration! :)

Have a wonderful Thursday!! :)

Christmas Prep...

....is still in full motion here. :)

A little Christmas Wishes & Bo Bunny patterned paper on this one!

Check out these funky trees! Love them. They are from Christmas Wishes too! :)

Hope you had a great Tuesday!! :)
