Just A Little Flair!

 
     Happy Friday, all!  Here is a quick post, to join in the Unity Friends with Flair fun.  Today's card uses the May KOM, called Totally and Utterly Amazing.  I used some rich cocoa card for my base, followed by a cute designer paper which is unknown.  I stamped my image and sentiment in Memento Inks and added some color with Copic BG10.  I decided to add some fun metal brads to finish things off.  They are from K&Co.

 
     My second card uses stamps from the April Unity KOM, and I used the camera, border, and sentiment.  My black ink is Memento, and the rest is from an old set of dauber inks from Fiber Scrap.  The designer paper is from Wild Asparagus, seafoam twine is American Craft, and the tiny stars are from a die called holiday shapes.  It is MemoryBox for SSS.  I also added some Sakura Stardust pen for a bit of sparkle. I even added little jelly bumps to the camera lenses.

      I would like to enter this over at Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog for this weeks challenge, called Take A Picture!

     Hope everyone has a fantastic Memorial weekend.  It should be a very quiet one around here, unless my sweet grandson makes an appearance!  Thanks for stopping by.

Fabulous card! Love the metal embellishments you added and the image is gorgeous. The little bit of coloring matches the DP just perfect.

Your clock theme turned out so nice. And the accents add the perfect detail, I think. :)

Two fine looking cards. Both images are really special and different. It's so nice that you have the ability to think outside the box. I assume we don't have a grandbaby yet? What is she waiting for? Enjoy the weekend and hope we have a baby by the end of it.
