Welcome to my Friends with Flair Friday Unity Project

I am so glad to be back for my 2nd Friends with Flair Friday!!! I love that Unity supports their customers in this way!! I can't believe I found them just over a year ago...time flies!!!! This week I have a wedding card for my cousin getting married tomorrow (I am also making a mini album and hope to show that later). The front and inside left of this card has stamps from September's go ahead wish kit. The inside right cake and sentiment are from Unity's Hodge Podge of Happiness. Papers are all from Making Memories wedding line, bling is Kaisercraft, I also used Liquid Pearls in silver and glitter from Sparkle and Sprinkle. I use my spellbinders dies so much I almost always forget to mention them. The small card was made by my daughter to match my card and the mini album.
I found this great card template on Splitcoast Stampers at this link http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/1466125
Sorry but I don't know why I can't get my blog to post a link correctly but you could cut and past it in. The template is also at www.loristamps.com

Thanks for stopping by and have a GREAT weekend!!!

SO Thankful

Yesterday I received my Unity Sept Store Kit everything extraordinary and I had to ink it up right away. I love this thankful stamp and wanted to use it first. I recently needed A LOT of help moving and some very special people stepped up and did most of the work.... as my body/back prevent me from doing it myself. There really are no words to express how thankful I am to them, so a handmade card will have to do.
All of the stamps are from Unity as well as the ink (from their Sept scrappers kit le chic vintage). All papers are from Bo Bunny's Delilah collection. For the oval diecuts I used spellbinders dies as well as for the scalloped edge (5 1/2 " fancy scalloped border pierceabilities).
Thanks for visiting!!!

Friends with Flair Friday!!!!

Welcome to my blog and Happy Friends with Flair Friday!!! I am so happy to be back to these Fridays after a break that was WAY too long.

Today I have a card I made with my new Unity Le Chic Vintage Kit for Scrappers. As soon as I opened up my kit and saw the stamps I used today I got my idea for this card. I just love the quote with the "ruler". The patterned papers are Cosmo Cricket and also from the kit as well as the Unity ink. I used the Unity background stamp worn music, cardstock is Bazzill, brads and ribbon Close to My Heart.




THANK YOU so much for visiting today and have a great weekend!!!

Hi Everyone!!! PLEASE see what I have for sale!!!

I haven't posted any artwork lately because I've been busy trying to reorganize/organize my craft supplies. Because of my need to downsize my living situation I need to sell MANY of my craft supplies. A few years ago I was a consultant for Close To My Heart and during that time I accumulated many of their MY Acrylix stamp sets. I have not been able to work at all for a few months and would like to keep my daughter in the same school that she(we) have loved for the past 3 years. So, I would much rather part with many of my craft supplies in order to be in a stable place. If you or ANYONE you might know would like to check out the stamps I have for sale please go to

Happy HIP HOP HANGOVER FRIDAY!!!

Today I decided to try a few new things for my card. I found some canvas looking fabric and sprayed it with tattered angels glimmer mist, then stamped over that with one of my fav Unity sets Birdie Inspiration. All papers and diecut border sticker are Basic Grey Porcelain.

It has been an absolute beautiful day here so far. I was on a field trip with my daughter's 2nd grade class this morning to the UW Arboretum, that place is beautiful any day. We had a lot of fun there and the trees are amazing. I took pictures, of course, and can't wait to scrap them with some of my equally beautiful Unity trees.

Thanks so much for visiting!!! Jodi

Unity Monochromatic Challenge USGDC02

Here's my layout I did for the Unity Stamp Co. July KOTM Guest Designer Challenge. The rules were to use the April or May Kit and have your project be monochromatic. I thought it would be the perfect time to pull out this picture of my daughter and her friend that I've been wanting to scrap. I used the Unity May Kit...another sweet day for all stamps except for the parenthesis, that is from Unity's Amazing Me! set. I chose to use some of my Close To My Heart papers in Hollyhock (I used cardstock and B&T papers of the same color) and also used CTMH ink in Hollyhock. I stamped the Heidi Swapp chipboard letters with one of the decorative stamps from the May Kit also. The flowers are also from CTMH and I inked them up with some of that matching ink too. Thank you so much for visiting me!! If you just happened upon my blog you can click on the Unity blinkie to the right to find out more about their monthly kits and other incredible stamps. Also be sure to check out their blog where Angela always has some great inspiring quotes.
