Friday FWF


I love navy & yellow colors together, so I used them for my Unity Friday FWF card today. I used a Unity background stamp called "cooped up notes" and stamped one in yellow, and one in navy. The yellow panel was embossed with a Tim Holtz alterations embossing folder by Sizzix, and I went over the raised embossed lines with a navy marker. I matted with yellow and blue cardstocks, then added the satin flowers, yellow brads, and a few tiny butterflies. The sentiment is a Unity Itty Bitty.

Thanks for stopping by today, and good luck! Someone commented on my blog last week and won a grab bag of stamps from Unity, so you never know when you might be a winner for commenting too! :)

Navy and yellow are one of my very favorite color combos! LOVE this beautiful card. I thought that was a die instead of a stamp! Just gorgeous.

Mary Anne, a very nice card. I, too, love the blue and yellow. Love the offset hexagons and those tiny butterflies. Enjoy your weekend.

Carol, I said Mary Anne in my comment, DUH! Maybe I'd better slow down when I am doing things and pay more attention. LOL

Brenda said...

I love yellow and navy together too Carol. I love your stamping, I didn't see the embossed part on the yellow because I thought you stamped that whole thing. lol I had to look hard to see that you embossed it. I love that stamp and that sentiment is so nice. Your butterflies and flowers look so pretty, just a beautiful card Carol! Hugs, Brenda

It is a beautiful color combo. I love the effect you got from embossing and marker overlay. Such a beautiful card :o)

Well congrats to the winner of the Unity stamps. Don't think I have any from that mfrg. I am loving your navy & yellow scheme. The colors play off each other very stylishly, and I'm really liking the honeycomb offset with the colors in that border too. Draws the eye right in. Ditto with the script behind the top navy honeycomb panel. Great design, love those polka dot flowers & their yellow centers, with the tiny yellow butterflies. Another great card. TFS & Happy wkend.
