Playing with UNITY- FWF and Fall Challenge

Sorry for not being around so much

sweet blends. . . .

I did enjoy stopping to visit

many of you on Facebook.

It was great to hear all the

wonderful stories of

families, delicious food, and

all the reasons to Be Thankful.

I am Thankful for friends, family, our basic needs

being met, and really

thankful to have found time to play with Unity.

For a few months, I got out of the groove of

Crafting Just For Fun

and

WOW, it felt GOOD
to find the Groove again!!!

I just finished a small 4x4 card

to link up
with my wonderful friend, Diana L., of
DL Art for her Thankful Thursday Linky Party,
and

Unity Friends with Flair Friday

and

to play along in the Unity November FALL Challenge

The leaves are stamps from the Aug. 2012 KOM

and the sentiment is from the Sept. 2012 KOM.

I used Kraft for my base,

cream for my next layer,

and desert sand for the leaf and sentiment.

I fussy cut the top leaf and used 3D foam adhesive.

The leaves were inked with TH Distress Inks in Antique Linen,

Vintage Photo, Forest Moss, and Barn Door.

You still have plenty of time

to join in on

Friends with Flair before

Monday arrives.

The November FALL challenge will remain

open until 12/14/12.

Keep Crafting,

Because

♫ CRAFTING ♫

♫ ROCKS ♫

Happy 9th Birthday - Linky Party with DL.Art

If you are looking for the

My Cricut Craft Room

100 Cart Blog Hop...

Please Scroll Down!!!

Tonight I am sharing a card I made for my

sweet Step-Daughter's 9th Birthday.

I am linking this up to

DL.Art - Happy Birthday Linky Party + GIVEAWAY!
Diana is so graciously offering
one random participant
a fabulous
Pretty Pennants Cricut Cartridge

Also, be sure to stop by the wonderful
Happy Birthday Diana Blog Hop
happening this coming Monday
(link is on the right sidebar.....look for the cake with candles)

I had borrowed the Sweet Treats Cricut Cartridge

from my SFF, Heather Lynn

and asked Gabriella to pick

the images she liked the best

on the cartridge.

She chose the cake with candle, the ice cream sundae, and a 3 scoop cone!

I used the card feature for the cake on the front.

I wanted it to be a peek-a-boo card,

just for a little extra excitement.

I used several types of textured card stock

and just knew I had to use my new

Core'dinations Core Couture-Glitter.

I also used several of the stamps my children

had given me for my Birthday earlier this year.

I knew Gabriella would get a kick out of

seeing the one she bought me, so I used

that one the most!

Keep Crafting
