Holiday Cards, Unity style

Welcome to Friday Friends with Flair. I have two things to show you today, but first, make sure you check out Unity's blog to get the list of participants this week. And find the flair for a chance to win a grab bag of stamps.

Card #1 is a Thanksgiving card that uses the elegant stamp from the Aug09 KOTM: Following My Heart kit to make a background pattern with Vivid Olive ink. The quote is from Something Within. I colored the pearls with Copic R89 to match the papers and doodled the dots on the scalloped border using a white gel pen.

Other supplies used: GinaK Fresh Asparagus, Cranberry Tart and Soft Sand cardstocks, pearls, ribbon from the Holiday Assortment and button from the Autumn Assortment.

Card #2 is a simple Christmas card that can be easily mass produced. I stamped various images from the Stylin' Stars kit and the sentiment from Feel the Joy. I then used my Sakura glitter pen to draw the strings and ribbons. The sparkly elements are hard to photograph, but they are so pretty and so simple to do, too. A button with silver cording on the side finished the project. The card base is Soft Sand.
