It's Friday!
Time for Friends with Flair, and time to strut some Unity creations! Check out the blog, leave some love for the people who have linked up, and you may be the winner of some yummy Unity stamps. Of course, if you have a Unity creation to add, link it up!
Today, I created a card that uses the August KOM 2012. I was inspired by the sweet little row of apples and the open font. I used a red card base and then tried making a paper quilted background from 1/2" strips. That was really fun, and I love the rich colors I was able to put together. Coloring was done with Copics, and sponging is done with Distress Ink. My embellishments are stitched red ribbon, and colored mini brads. I added a little shine to the apples with some Glossy Accents.
My second card is using the new KOM of October, called Labeled {From Ours To Yours}. Again, I used scraps, from my stash. I stamped my deer and sentiment in Midnight Muse ink, cut it out with a deckle rectangle die, and added scattered hearts from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps heart die. I liked the non-traditional colors.

I always love coming by your blog because you are always quick to create with the newest KOTM and always have such lovely cards and inspiration! I especially love that reindeer card! It usually takes me much longer to get my KOTM's inky. :)

Stay safe in the storm - I guess I can take the forecast seriously now :)
