Unity Wednesday Challenge on Tuesday! (NIGHT)

I ran into a few setbacks today, but managed to get this card done and photographed in time for the challenge. Since it's Thanksgiving on Thursday, we're having Hip Hop on Wednesday, which is the reason my Wednesday challenge card is on Tuesday. Phew! Got that? We were challenged to make a card using Unity stamps and the colors red and white, oh! and make it a thank you card. I was thinking I was hating my card, but actually liked how it turned out.


Stamps: Unity; Beautiful Life, Daisy Days, and Simply Said

DON'T FORGET THAT HIP HOP IS ON WEDNESDAY THIS WEEK!!!!!!!!! So I hope to see you at Hip Hop tomorrow!! Bring a friend or two. You always have a big chance at winning some of the best stamps ever!!!!! Start out on the Unity Blog, and make your way to the Unity forum on SCS.

A card and a few tags

OUT FOR PUBLICATION
I've been tagged 3 times. I guess I should catch them up. But first, here's a card I made tonight using this fun hunting set from Unity Stamp Co. called Road Trip. We have a lot of pictures of the boys and their dad hunting, so this will be a super fun set.

Okay, now for the tags. A while ago I was tagged by Cathy (MamaSheg),


then a couple days ago I was tagged by Heidi(Van Laar Designs) with the same kind of tag.



Then, I was tagged by Ashley(HeartHugsDesigns) with a different one. It's to post the 4th picture in your 4th folder in your picture file.
So I'll just do it all at once.

7 Random Facts about me:

1*I am a lover of all animals. I love ALMOST all of them. I HATE spiders, which aren't really animals, but have legs and are sometimes furry! EEK! But I would have 10 cats and 10 dogs and 10 birds and 10........ if my hubby didn't keep me in line. Sadly I only have 2 parakeets right now. But the minute I move into my house, watch out!

2*My favorite dessert is Chocolate Molten Cake ( I hear Kazan makes a good one!) *hint, hint* ;0

3*Some people might say I have adult ADD. I call it craft ADD(someone else said this, can't remember who) I can't have just one project going at once, and the ones that don't HAVE to be finished, usually don't get done.

4*In the past, I haven't been organized, AT ALL! I say in the past because I'm working on it, and staying POSITIVE!! I don't know if it's a right left brain thing or what, but I'M WORKING ON IT!!

5*I love change. I change my furniture around at least once every 2 months. I change my hair at least once a month, and I rarely change my underwear! LOL HAHAHA Just kidding!!!! Just checking to see who is really reading this. I change them DAILY!!

6*I haven't read the Twilight series and don't plan on it any time soon. *GASP* yes, some of you are SO shocked. ( My Unity friends to be exact)

7* I ramble. I talk. I gab. I blah blah blah. I go a bit overboard. To sum it up, I can't shutup sometimes(Tanis, no laughing!!). This has been a problem for me. I really like friends and people and conversation so I talk, and talk, and talk(or type). I then leave fealing like I blew it! I just made everyone so annoyed with me and should have quit talking, I should just keep it simple(like right now). But I do it again the next time. I guess that's just who I am. I just can't quit.

Okay, so now I tag 7 more people and they can share 7 random facts about themselves. I think everyone in this blogger universe has been tagged, but I'll give it a go anyway.

Tanis- you've
been tagged, but never do it. So now you HAVE to.

Sarah
Lisa

you're not busy running a business or anything)

Okay, now for the 4th picture in my 4th folder in my picture file:

Unity Wednesday Challenge

I LOVE UNITY!
I just thought I should mention that in case you didn't already know.
So today's Unity addicts Wed. challenge is to use this picture for inspiration.

I was going to make a card, but lately I just feel like making anything BUT a card. So I made this magnet board.

It's a flashing shingle for a roof. It was only like 69 cents at home depot. You can get them in the roofing section. You can get all sorts of sizes. I didn't have any designer paper that I loved for this project, so I thought it was a great opportunity to show how easy it is to use Unity stamps to make your own paper. I've been embossing EVERYTHING this week. I'm having a lot of fun experimenting with the resist stamping and different things.

And what a perfect time to use my FAVORITE stamp set, Daisy Days. I'm addicted to this set. The magnets are just a stamped image that I cut out with a circle punch, and glued a round magnet to the back. You can get the magnets anywhere. I get mine at Walmart. And the cute kids? Well, you'll have to try to make your own, those are mine. But good luck making them look as cute!!! HAHAHA.


Don't forget that tomorrow is HIP HOP with Unity. Start on the Unity Blog, make your way through the amazing Design Team's blogs, and hang out with us all day on the Unity forum on SCS.

2 Sketcches 4 You

Finally! I got to play along with the sketch on 2 Sketches 4 You this week. I also used the inspiration challenge on SCS for this card.



Here's the picture I used for inspiration.
