I have a "few" more faves to show off!

I did a lot of some back-tracking, but I know I'm missing a ton of great art work. Not nearly enough time in the gallery, but you won't want to miss these!

WT257 - FWF - A Sweet Day with Unity

Ways to Use It: Odds Are...

Quoted from our hostess, Julie,
"Odds are you'll have fun with this challenge. And odds are you've heard of the design "rule" of odds. An odd number of anything is usually most visually pleasing in design. So....five brads would look better than six for instance. Three flowers looks better than two. There are always exceptions but today, I'm challenging you to focus on the odds and show me how you use them on a project. So that's 1,3,5,7,9,11...and so on."

3 strawberries
3 flowers
3 rhinestones
1 stamped main image (2 objects with 3 strawberries... so it counts {wink})
1 line sentiment
1 corner punch
1 edge punch
(I was going to have 3 ribbons, but I just couldn't make it work, so.... :)
1 ribbon bow
& 1 ribbon tie!

I also made this card for today's Friends with Flair on the Unity blog. {2/12/10} Hop on over!

Stamps: Berry Good Life, Spring Unity, Mix-up of Cuteness (Unity)
Paper: real red, white, SU dsp
Ink: black, real red marker (for the sentiment & the diagonal lines on the teapot, cup & saucer), Copic markers for coloring
Accessories: ribbon, mini rhinestone stickers, SU corner & edge punches (edge punch is one of the new SAB incentives)

Three Happy Hearts


Today was our first snow day this winter. I was worried we weren't going to get one... in a year that our February break was eliminated. Ouch! It has it been a strange winter... other states have been stealing our snow! LOL! Actually, they can keep it. Now that I've had my relaxing day off, it can melt and never come back (wink).

So with some of my time, I made a SCS sketch card! It was perfect for my Three Happy Hearts stamps from DRS Designs!

Stamps: Three Happy Hearts, Valentine greeting, medium Filigree Snowflake (DRS Designs)
Paper: pretty in pink, pink pirouette, white
Ink: black, basic gray, pretty in pink, regal rose marker, Copic markers (RV21 & RV13)
Accessories: paper piercer & template (SU mat stack), spiral clip, ribbons, CM heart maker, dimensionals
Technique: faux stitching
