[10.18.2013] friends with flair
Happy day my Friends with Flair Unity peeps. It has been a long time since I have linked up on a Friday. I miss it. So I’m beyond excited to share two cards with you all today.
Did you see these?
Three fabulous new Phyllis Harris stamp sets and I couldn’t wait to play with two of them for today.
And for a Moment speaks to my heart. I rode horses when I was younger. For years and there are times I miss it greatly. Especially when I see an image like this, it tugs at my heartstrings.
I always want to watercolor PH images. So I pulled out my watercolor pencils and got to work. I used my Cameo to cut out the background scalloped circle and then added a little burlap string to finish it off.
In order to keep the string from sliding off the circle, I added a little notch to each side to keep the string in place.
Awwww, this girl and her braid from Reach for the Stars. hee hee. You might have thought I would say cat, but really, I love her braid the most. I think I lived half my childhood with my hair in a braid. Even my dad knew how to braid my hair at night so it wouldn’t get all tangled up.
She is water colored as well on a tag cut from my Cameo. The rhinestone stars add a nice bit of sparkle.
Thanks for stopping by and remember to head back to the Unity blog to visit the rest of the Friends with Flair.
