Unity Friends with Flair Friday


TGIF! Welcome to Friday and another Unity Friends with Flair!! So this week on SCS they featured the direct to paper technique. If you are new to stamping check out this simple tutorial HERE. It's a totally rockin and easy way to get some fun color on your card.

So I decided to make a simple direct to paper card using my {ippity}. Let me say first off I didn't intentionally use the same colors as Lydia from the tutorial. I saw that this was the tutorial this week and just thought Oh yeah love that! I guess the colors she used got stuck in my sub conscience because I pulled them out not remembering that was the case. Anyhow here is what I came up with:


I used the new {ippity} kit called The Best! Have you seen the new release yet? I have most listed in my Etsy shop along with others. If I don't have what you are looking for let me know and I will get it asap for you! Check out this post which shows all the sets that were released.

Thanks for stopping by!
