Happy FWF New Year!!!

This is post #2 for the day.
If you are looking for my
Makeup 4 the weekend
or Friday Fun Challenge post,
it is below this one.

Happy Friends with Flair everyone!!!

Today is the 1st, which not only means the start of a brand new year,
but it also means the start of a brand new kit of the month for Unity Stamp Co.
And I know that I totally don't need to say it because you all KNOW it at this point...
you are going to LOVE this kit!!!


I created this card for my dad's birthday which is next week (and I have totally ruined the surprise of it since he does read my blog....Happy Birthday a bit early, Dad!) I love that "Wishes" stamp because it works so perfectly for masculine cards.

And do you see it? It is so easy to overlook with all the gorgeous stamps in this kit, but do you see that gorgeous polkadot piece? That was created using the polkadot stamp in this kit. OMG, I think that I have a new favorite stamp. Look at how much presence that adds to this card!!
Supplies used:
*Unity Stamp Co. January kit of the month
*Cosmo Cricket papers (woodgrain and dandelions)
*MME paper (plaid)
*Martha Stewart border punch
*Making Memories copper brad
*CTMH Cocoa inkpad
*Sharpie White Poster marker
*PTI Kraft paper

Be sure to go check out what all the Friends with Flair girls have created.
You are sure to be inspired!
