UNITY'S FWF HOP and a few CARDS!

Hello Everyone!

Hope you had a great week and ready to start your weekend off with some amaZING inspiration from all the Unity Lover's! You know the drill....you have to start at Unity's Blog to see the list of all the creative stampers!

The new Unity's Challenge is Falling Leaves. How fun is that? You have a chance to Unity some fun Unity stamps. I'm crossing my fingers! I just love love love Unity and of course all the Peeps too!

My first card is for a close family friend and their son Micah is turning 2! I just love making kids cards. They are so fun.


For this card I used Frame this Alpha, May '11', & Aug '11' KOTM, Ippity A Bit of Burlap, It's Your Day, Circle Frenzy, Ok this cute little turtle isn't Unity! WHAT? I know I know...but it was to cute not to use it on this card. Please don't HATE ME!

For this card I made for the Ippity 1-2-3 Challenge, but I was a week late, so I thought I would share it today.

I used Ippity Just wanted to Say. Ippity's Fall Challenge is the current one!

Over at My Unity Place there is a sketch challenge that I had to do! Love the sketch!


I used Unity June '11' KOTM, & It's Your Day.

Don't forget that right here at All Things Unity we are having a 3 WAY challenge too. You have until Saturday to enter and have a chance at some sweet Unity stamps. Come back Sunday for the fun NEW challenge.

That's It for me! Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a fabulous weekend.

UNITY FWF & MOVIE NIGHT INVITE

Hello Lovely Unity and Ippity Peeps!

Saturday is the 10th Anniversary of 9/11. I just wanted to send my thoughts and prayers to all the families.

Can you believe that it's Friday already? Time is going by so fast, but at least today we get to see all the Unity and Ippity Lovers take on all the fun stamps! I just love seeing all the different ideas using all the fun stamps.

You know the drill my now, but if you are new you will want to start over at Unity's Blog for list of all the peeps sharing today.
While your there click on the challenge tabs to play along.
Don't forget that My Unity Place is having some challenges too. Oh and we can't forget the Ippity challenge too. Unity fun is EVERYWHERE! Oh no...that's not all...Right here at All Things Unity we have a 3 Way Challenge! Now this is a way to get those Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Holiday cards started early! :)

Ok! Now is a few projects I did this week, but the pics aren't the greatest. My camera is sick and I only had my youngest DD's camera.

The first project is for the Unity's SEPT11KOMSC. I thought this would be fun to give to the family with free tickets for a drink and popcorn. I used the Feb '11', & Aug '11' KOTM.

I had so much fun making this and love this sketch...thanks Jimmi!

My second project is a 12x12 card for my Aunt that is turning 80. They are doing a scrapbook. I know this sounds weird, but when she had her first granddaughter she brought a 8x10 or 12x12 to show us. Then she pulls out all the little wallet sizes. She is just to funny.
I used Aug '11', Mar '11', Jan '11', Oct '10' KOTM. I KNOW...I KNOW!!! You might see some SU stamps on this project. See Unity goes with anything. I just love love love Unity and all the PEEPS!

The card I already made and was suppose to send it last October, but I think it worked out really well putting it on the 12x12 card.

WOW! This was a long post for me.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you can play along with some of the challenges. There are some good prizes, but you have to play to have a chance.
Have a creative and wonderful weekend.
