Reverse Confetti {Whale Done}

So excited to have this little ditty added to my stash. I used more of my new goodies from {iheartpapers}. The Happy Harbor set is sold out over there, but here is the link to the Reverse Confetti store.
I am a sucker for a good punny sentiment. I am thinking of giving this to my son after his basketball camp ends this week. It was a 4 day camp from 9-4.....that's a long day and A LOT of basketball. He had a blast with his buddies, though. 


The card came together quickly thanks to this week's Mojo Monday sketch 299. It was round or square week and I just realized I did neither. haha! I followed the sketch, but made it into an A2 card. 
Papers are by Fancy Pants. The paper pack is called, Down by the Shore.  I also used the Catch a wave Die-namics and hit the edges with some Stickles. 


I tied on some red bakers twine and tucked in a Sea Charms anchor to my Kraft button. Little embellies like that just MAKE a card, dontcha think?

oops, forgot to add the ink into my shopping list below. I stamped the sentiment in Electric Red and the whale in Steel Blue, both by MFT.

Unity- {meet Charlotte}

Hello, my Unity Friends!
It's another fun hop
with the 
Unity DT. 

It's Fashionista week!
Here are all the girls. 
There are 4 more joining the crew, today.

You're gonna loooooove 
these hot mamas!
They are a little bit 
edgy, and soooo beautiful!

This one is Charlotte.

I paired her up with the new sentiment set
you can also purchase today. 


This sentiment is perfect for someone 
that needs to 
MOVE ON. 
I've got a dear friend doing that right now.
Times are sad, her situation is sad, 
but it's the right choice for her. 

I hope this card puts a smile on her face.
i made it extra pretty
with the soft, gentle colors and seam binding ribbon.


I also made a quick card with one of the FREE with Purchase stamps.
How cute is this whale???

My FIL had surgery last week, 
he's still in a sling and has a long road of rehab
I thought this would be a nice pick-me-up for him. 

I used this week's Deconstructing sketch 106.


Be sure to check out the Unity Stamp Co. store to 
see all the new goodies 
AND
ORDER THEM!!!

Robyn is up next in our hop.


If you get lost along the way.....hop on over 
to the Unity Blog. 


Here are the SALE banners!

WSC128-Hello Special Girl

Well. I have been on track for three years with the MFT Wednesday Sketches. Two weeks off the team and BAM! I'm already behind. haha! That's alright. I am still shooting for being part of the Club 52. Did you know there was a fun, chit chat thread on SCS started by some MFT friends. 
I created this sweet card using WSC128. I finished it last week, but I'm just now getting to post it. I feel a trend coming on.  I used the gorgeous, just released, You're So Special to Me stamp set. 


 This line of stamps just makes my heart happy. They are so fun to color up.



 Of course I stamped her onto x-press it blending cs and then used my Copics to make her come to life. 


In place of that tab element from the sketch. I used a "hello" from Happy Hellos Die-namics. One of my ALL TIME FAVE dies. 

I also used the rounded background mat from Blueprints4 Die-namics. The paper is from the Studio Calico Sundrifter pack.
