<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It has been a busy summer full of fun with the kids, so not much time to stamp and share anything on here, but in the past few weeks I have finally had a little time to get crafty and here are some stuff I have been working on.</span></div>
<br />
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">First a card made with the Papillon Potpourri set</span></div>

<br />
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I love how this turned out, the colors and butterflies make me think of summer days, and I LOVE summer and having the kids home every day.</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">In addition to making cards, I have been working on some Christmas gifts, here is a little cutting board I made yesterday</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This was pretty quick and I think it will make a cute gift with a bottle of wine for a friend who started her new job today.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana;"></span> </div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Verdana;">For today I made this cute baby card using the background stamp from the March 2011 KOM and the "baby" stamp from the April 2011 KOM.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I stamped the background first with brown ink, then I turned it upside down and stamped it again using pink ink on cream card stock.</span></div>

These folded trees are so cute and surprisingly easy to make too, the <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/foldedchristmastree">tutorial</a> for these on SCS is so easy to follow and it only takes a few minutes to make one of these.</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
The stamp is from a Stampin' Up set called Petite Pairs and the brown cs is also from Stampin' Up.</div>

I made this fun gift card holder, since I do need a few of these to give to some friends who has helped me out a lot this past week. Kids seemed to have endless activities and needed rides to all sorts of places, and I relied on friends to help with a lot of that since I have been a "single mom" for 2 weeks now, and it is not very practical to have to wake up the toddler to pick up his siblings late in the evening or during nap time. I cannot wait for my husband to come home in a week or so. Sometimes this army gig is a bit trying, right now I have not seen or heard from my husband for two weeks (yes I am whining), and I do miss him lots.</div>
<div align="center">
On a positive note, I did find a Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker on clearance and I cannot wait to have some friends over and try it out this weekend.</div>
<div align="center">

The second card is for the stamp a border challenge</div>

Today I managed to finish two more cards for the Unity WCMD challenge. I am hoping to get all of them done before October 20.<br />
<br />
This one is for the sketch challenge, I used stamps from the August 2012 KOM, and paper from Echo park "Apothecary Emporium". For the half circle I used some spellbinders and just cut them in half, and I embossed the orange half circle with the Swiss dot embossing folder.</div>
<div align="center">

<br />
<br />
<div align="center">
The second card is for the embossing challenge, and this one looks really pretty in person, but it was not being a good model, so the pictures do not do it justice at all. And since the challenge called for embossing I decided to both dry emboss and heat emboss on the card.</div>

<br />
<div align="center">
I embossed the white panel with a Cuttlebug embossing folder, I rolled my brayer in Versamark ink and rolled it over the snowflakes, sprinkled with sparkly embossing powder and embossed it, so these have a really pretty sparkle to them that does not turn up in the picture.</div>

I stamped the blue panel with snowflakes from the <a href="http://unitystampco.com/shop/snowflakes-fall-from-heaven/">Snowflakes fall from Heaven set</a> using Versamark and embossed them with a glittery iridescent white embossing powder (this does not show up well in the picture either). The word stamp is from a set called <a href="http://unitystampco.com/shop/christmas-eve-chowder/">Christmas Eve Chowder</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added some navy gems for some extra sparkle. </div>

Hope that everyone is having a great weekend!</div>
<div align="center">
I am finally getting around to posting my projects for the Unity WCMD challenge and here are the two first ones.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
For the first one we were supposed to make a shaped card and this was quite a challenge for me, guess that shaped cards is not my forte. I finally finished this cute pumpkin card, and I am somewhat satisfied with the result</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2EwqL2frJxZcZ55WFU2GnxRmmyVDkusn4GG8FxrT3WKjLIP84DwPuDjubXdxF8mqMUorE8JY8gtIDU1yeqFmyjJOrxpzyJvof0NJgIOewjC1JmMmecdZ7EEpbbdUC0TjF03nQ0kH6Wd2i/s1600/WCMD+Unity+challenge+001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2EwqL2frJxZcZ55WFU2GnxRmmyVDkusn4GG8FxrT3WKjLIP84DwPuDjubXdxF8mqMUorE8JY8gtIDU1yeqFmyjJOrxpzyJvof0NJgIOewjC1JmMmecdZ7EEpbbdUC0TjF03nQ0kH6Wd2i/s320/WCMD+Unity+challenge+001.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The stamp is from one of the SOTW sets and the pumpkin shape is a Spellbinders die, that I cut with the top edge right inside the cutting edge so it stayed connected at the top. The paper is from a huge pad of papers from DCWV and I have had it in my stash for ages.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHGimxMXSoM6fobWhppdHA80hs2dBTd5eK0Z7K_U5-aCWWse9K8XsP86NZspiEJmhm8G1x_l5KmASi8OCJvGYpGcPGuHKcvU8dZmulVISnKmUmsP32-XErQsvMOTa9PS3xZbo0c8Cm2el1/s1600/WCMD+Unity+challenge+003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHGimxMXSoM6fobWhppdHA80hs2dBTd5eK0Z7K_U5-aCWWse9K8XsP86NZspiEJmhm8G1x_l5KmASi8OCJvGYpGcPGuHKcvU8dZmulVISnKmUmsP32-XErQsvMOTa9PS3xZbo0c8Cm2el1/s320/WCMD+Unity+challenge+003.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The second challenge called for using at least two textures on your card. I dry embossed the background, heat embossed the image in silver and added a ribbon for at least three textures.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The stamp is from the <a href="http://unitystampco.com/shop/happy-everything/">Happy Everything kit</a> and the ribbon is from a JoAnns clearance bin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Usually I have a really hard time with pictures when the card is black or really dark, but today I was struggling to get a good picture of this all white card, they kept looking purple, finally I gave up and this is the best one I got.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And last but not least the winner of the two Itty Bitty stamps from Unity, I used random.org to find the winner and the winner is:</div>

Happy Friday!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
For FWF this week, I made a fun Halloween card, I love the googly eyed spider, and had to make several of these, because my toddler kept coming in the room and taking the eyes off the spider because according to him spiders do not have eyes.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The paper is from Echo Park Apothecary collection, and the stamp is from Unity "Too cute to Spook", I cut the spider with my much under used Cricut and a cartridge called Doodle charms.</div>

Now I will hurry up and send this to some friends in Kansas, before the little guy sees it and gets upset about yet another spider with eyes.</div>
