Choose Your Attitude

Hey everyone! After 'talking' to you last night, I decided to make a quick little card. I really love this sentiment from the latest Kit of the Month by Unity {Wherever You Go}. It's all about choosing your attitude in any situation -- and I thought it was pertinent for me today. :)

Also - Unity is having a Garage Sale today! You can read all about it on the Unity Blog! Fun stuff! :)

I love how the cloud image is separate from the sentiment... which made it really easy to stamp. I added a little shimmer to the sunshine with my Copic glitter pen... and bits of 'diamond' sparkle with rhinestones by Zva. The paper is by Chatterbox (Fabulous Glitter Gingham) and it's really fabulous in my book! I love the color and the shimmery finish on it.

Thanks so much for all of your e-mails and messages! You guys are so encouraging & you lifted my spirit this morning! Have a fantastic day!!! :)

Love Makes it Home

Happy Friday!!! I've got another fun card for you today (or at least I think so). ;) I love this Hambly paper & thought it would be fun to pair it with one of my Melissa Frances rub-ons.

If you look closely, you'll see the definition of love stamped lightly on the bottom of my card. I love Unity's "Giving it all Meaning" background stamp because it's full of dictionary definitions that you'll want to reach for over & over again.



And... since it's Friday, make sure you check out the Unity Blog for 50+ inspiring ideas with our Friends With Flair! There are always prizes to be had... so you don't want to miss it! :)
