Friday Fun

Yay! It's FRIDAY and it's a 3-day weekend for me!  Whoop, whoop!

I did a couple cards for today's post.  I'll get back to using some of my stamps that I haven't shown a lot of inky love, but this week, I just HAD to ink up my new Unity "You....crack me up" set.


O.M.GEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I love these chickies!  So fun with bright spring colors.  The paper is from the Echo Park Everyday Eclectic paper collection (background) and the green was in my stash pile.  The twine is Lemonade Yellow from Timeless Twine, and the doily is from Bella Creationz.  The butterflies are confetti chip from UmWow Studio covered in liquid pearls.  The little chicky is colored with Copic markers.

AND I got a new Karen Burniston die.  I plan to do some minis with this die, but I needed to play with it a little, so I used Unity "Everything Happens to be Wonderful" and "Real Shared Happiness" to create this fun card.  Many of my old Crop Chocolate buds will recognize the ribbon.  Yes, I still have a LOT of celery ribbon around.  haha


I'm going to get the frame for it because I'm not sure I like the "back" showing on the right side.  Sure was fun to play with, and I can imagine all sorts of fun possibilities with pop-out minis!

Enjoy a super happy weekend and super lovey-dovey Valentine's Day, my friends.

Craftily yours,

Karen

  10. Gorgeous cards! Love how the UWS chipboard turned out with the liquid pearls, I need to try that! Hey, there's nothing wrong with celery ribbon - and it goes with so many different colors! I still have a huge amount of CC stuff t use... :) But it all comes with good memories, doesn't it?
