FWF-what's this you ask?

Let me tell you....so Friday's used to be hip hop hangover day for the Unity peeps. Now that Hip Hop is no more (can't wait to see what Angela and the Unity gang have instore for us on Sept. 17), we needed another name. Angela still wanted Friday's to be all about her loyal customers, friends, and followers so that brings us to FWF-Friends With Flair! Isn't it a fabulous title? The first 50 to sign up each week on the Wednesday thread on SCS are included in the little blog hop. If you happened here just because, that's great, but don't miss out on all the other Unity goodness being posted today. Stop back at Angela's blog to see the rest of the FWF blogs. I almost didn't get this done. This week has been a whirl wind of emotions and honestly my mojo has been MIA. I guess I did find a little bit of it for a few DT projects I need to finish up plus this card for the Unity KOTM Challenge. Jennifer Buck gave us a doozey of a color combo to work with-green, purple, orange and black along with Unity stamps from the July or August KOTM. Perfect Halloween colors but I decided to make it even harder on myself and forego that theme. I actually really adore my card, it's cute right? Images are from the July KOTM-Pocket Full Of... I used a white thicker U to finish off the sentiment. Here's a close up of the details. I think pears are hot right now, I seem to be seeing them everywhere as of late. I don't like the taste of pears, but I love 'em here on my card. Oh, and just another tip on my giant scallops. I've been in love with the Fiskar's punch that is out there (Heather P. and Dawn McVey use it all the time) but I haven't had the extra cash to go buy it. I dont' think I need it now because I am liking the faux look I can create with my 1 3/4 circle punch. Love circles! Hugs, Lisa

CAS and Stitching!!!

Keeping this short and sweet, I've got lots of catching up to do since I was away AND my sister and nieces are arriving here tomorrow. Busy, busy, I tell ya! Be sure to check out the CAS challenge thread this week, we are stitching (faux or real). Here's my card.

Stamps are Unity, everything else is Stampin' Up! See you tomorrow! I'm hoping to stamp a little today! Hugs, Lisa

Hip Hop Hangover

I just can't get enough of this pocket. I keep thinking of things to put in it! Here I used these candles and made a fun birthday card. I think this will go to my sis. I'm sure I have a Unity stamps somewhere that says wishes, but I love that I could quickly stamp out the word with the super cool new alpha, Frame This Alpha. Have you seen it? If not, check it out! It's on sale through the weekend along with everything else- 30% OFF!!!! Discount Code: ENJOY How cool is that?!!! Be sure to check Angela's blog or the SCS thread to follow the rest of the HHH posts!!! Lots of creativity with these stamps! Have a great Friday, everyone! Hugs, Lisa
