OK.. did you miss Me.. hehehe I am back with my second post for the day.. I have had this card on my computer for the last few days, but did not get a chance to post it until today!!!. I am soo "Excited about this post because it is my very first card that I made using images from "Unity Stamp Co.".. yeahhhhh . I know every one has seen all the wonderful images that they have to offer, and I have been a follower of theirs for sometime too.. But not until I liked on FB and start following that, more and more of their lovelyness was being seen by me every day.. Not to mention that I got in on some Amazing Sales on lots of their stamps and kits.
So Here is my "First Card" that I am showing, using one of the most "Beautiful set of Butterflies".
Bevy of Butterflies
I made this "Desk Top" Calendar/card for one of the Resident at my Job.. She lost her "cat" the other day and as you can imagine is very "heart" broken over it.. So I wanted to give her something more that just a "Sympathy card". I wanted to give her a little token to brighten up her spirit and something that she could look at over and over again.. ( And She really LOVED IT TOO.. :0).. She told me that It meant more to her at this time than "I" could imagine"... and that really made my heart Happy"
I have to say that I got this idea and several others like it, from a great Tutorial on YouTube..Here is the link if you would like to see it for your self. I started with my PTI Card stock and Two Butterflies from the set. I Stamped the images first on my card stock and then "Paper Pieced" them again on some DP from Basic Gray- "Hopscotch" I used my Nestibalities to cut out the base for my calendar, added a little scrap of DP and added "Scor Tape" to attached it and pop dot to attached it to the card. ( I may have gone a little over board with my "white gel pen". Sentiment and Swirl is also from the Stamp Set. and added Glitter. The Pearls are some Gorgeous "flat back pearls" that I got from "Pazzazz Aplenty" if you have not visited then you really should too.
and I thought it would be Gorgeous to Stamp the Envelope too..So I did with my Memento Lady Bug Ink and added more glitter.
This one has NO stamped images, But waned to show another great Idea for your little Calendar.. and Yes I got this from the Same Channel on YouTube.. and Guess what ( you get to download the Calendar for "Free"
