Hi, Friends.............
I was having major problems with my internet tonight so I had to post unretouched photos for my Friday Unity- Friends with Flair project. I finally was able to edit my shots, so now I am redoing this post. :)
The lovely Unity grab bag sentiment says: Life fails to be perfect, but never fails to be beautiful. It is stamped in Versafine Ink in Vintage Sepia.
I used a number of my DCWV scraps for this. I find that layering uses lots of them!! Hooray!! :)
You will be seeing a lot of cards on my blog over the next weeks (months?) that use circles. I am in the middle of a quest to use a bunch of my scraps and a couple things I have in abundance are 3-1/2" and 1" wide strips, cut from 12"x12" paper to make A2 notecard sets. I have a circle punch that is nearly 3" wide, so I have made a bunch of circles from my strips. I am determined to use them!!!! Happily, the circles fit perfectly on my doilies. :)
I tinted a couple of Prima flowers with Distress Inks and added a pretty Zva swirl corner piece.

ReplyDeleteHow lovely! A very pretty card and a great use of those circles. Love the cat meme too - except no cat will admit to a problem!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, love the added pearls!
ReplyDeleteHi Janis! I haven't heard from you in some time, I hope all is well!! Your card is fabulous of course!! When are they not? I love that honeycomb background too! Good for you, using your scraps. I have a HUGE basket of them and they will be my next junk journal! How interesting that will be, with all the mismatched patterns, LOL! I hope to hear from you soon! Keep being awesome!

This is absolutely beautiful! LOVE the gorgeous layers--and all those pearls! Thank you for joining us at Inspired By Stamping! HUGS! :) Mynn xx
ReplyDeleteWow Janis!!! What a masterpiece of texture and design!! Love all the different patterns and layers....and those PEARLS!!! Whew, I know that I would have used on a few and hoarded the rest but then it wouldn't have been as impressive as this one. You were so right about those punched circles fitting perfectly into the doily and the way you cropped the patterned paper really shows off the design. So tell me though, did you add flowers to your punched circle, or is that printed on the DCWV paper? Either way this is gorgeous and you would never know you were sweltering as you created...!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous paper and card. Love all the frilly bits. Thank you so much for participating this week at the Mod Squad Challenge
ReplyDeleteWith flair is RIGHT, Janis! It's a beautiful card. hugs, de
