Friday with Unity

Wow how the weeks just fly by!

Another Friday is already here!

And I am running short on time since I have so many house chores to do before taking Hunter to school, so I will make this QUICK!

I made this card for my BFF. Her birthday is tomorrow. We have been friends since FOREVER and EVER. Her favorite color is pink, with green coming in second, so I thought I would make her a very special card:

The Flower is on a barrette so she can take it off the card and wear or give to someone else... I just love that sentiment. The background is Declare Freedom and the sentiment is from the October 2010 KOM. My sewing machine and I had a very hard time with each other the day I made this card. The back of the card is a HUGE mess, but at least you can't tell on the front right!?


I made this card with IPPITY. I wasn't thinking that the new Ippity Chick challenge blog had a sketch too... I was thinking it was just use ONLY Ippity stamps... SO it doesn't qualify, but is still cute. I used it to say thanks to a lady who purchased some of my neglected stamps (LINK IN RIGHT SIDEBAR).

And that is it from me today...

TIME for you to go check out all the other fabulous ladies participating this week with the Unity Fan Hop on the Unity Blog.

The flower/barrette is GORGEOUS! Love the pink and green. I know what you mean about the ugly side of stitching--ha ha (it's a good thing it doesn't show, though, right!). The Ippity card is so pretty and elegant!
