Friday, where have you been all week!?! TGIF and FWF! Just a quick post this week with a card I threw together super quick yesterday when both kids were napping at once...oh wait, scratch that...when my little guy was napping and his toddler sister was having "quiet" time in her room instead of napping and doing her very best to wake him up too. No naps from a tempermental 2 1/2 year old ALL week make for one VERY long week!
To see all of the other great Unity creations on Friends with Flair this week head over to the
Unity blog!
Supplies used:
Cardstock
Authentique PP
Unity stamps: January 2012 KOM
Other: Crackle paint, glitter, pop dots, silk ribbon, button and twine.
I'm entering this card into the
Unity Monthly Challenge New Beginnings. Nothing says new beginnings to me like a butterfly starting life as a caterpillar and emerging from a cocoon a fresh and new creature!
Super card. Love the papers and the little bit of sparkle on the butterfly
ReplyDeletePoppies and butterflies..... who can ask for more! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThis is so VERY pretty!
ReplyDeleteSoooooo pretty. Love the colors and of course that beautiful butterfly.
ReplyDeleteI can empathize..although my memories of this go WAY back...but my daughter NEVER liked to nap. She was (and is) an independent one.
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree. New beginnings. (Oh, and maybe a good glass of Pinot)
Love the card.
I love the colour scheme that you used. Beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty card, Crystal!! Love the patterned papers and the sweet butterfly. Great card!!
ReplyDeletethis is a very I chating card. and so pretty
ReplyDeleteStunning! Sorry to hear about the lack of napping at your house :)
ReplyDeleteGreat color combo! The pleated ribbon and the button are a nice complement.
ReplyDeleteThis is just gorgeous! I love the touch of glitter on your beautiful butterfly and your wonderful choice of colours.
ReplyDeleteYour card is adorable. I know the feeling, I have a 2 year old who does not like to nap, or sleep at night either, and with a deplopyed husband it seems like there is no time for stamping at all.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! I never can resist butterflies:-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. Love that paper and the butterfly looks great in teal!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card! Love your pleated ribbon!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card! Those colors are amazing together! The pleat in the ribbon rocks!!!

ReplyDeleteSorry your little guy didn't nap this week--ugh! I LOVE your card. The color (and glitter on) the butterfly is beautiful, and that patterned paper is amazing.
ReplyDeleteFABulous card! I love the ribbon treatment and color combination. Absolutely lovely!
ReplyDeleteCan't go wrong with Unity and Authentique together! Adorable card and I love that sentiment, just used it last night.
ReplyDeleteOh do I remember those days! Mine was a really good napper, but there were times and it always seemed it was a week long string of not settling down and I thought I was going to pull my hair out!
ReplyDeleteLove this card and fabulous ribbon treatment!
So very pretty!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work and great sentiments
