GIU day 4

You're back.  Wow. I didn't think many of you would stick around after that entire Mulberry incident. You must be super dedicated to win some deeply etched red rubber stamps!  I'm impressed.

All I can say is my Wednesday did what Wednesday's do. It came and went. Oh, and for the record, I'm not a fan of the term "Hump Day" either.  I raised boys.. my mind goes elsewhere when I hear that phrase. I mean, Wednesdays do have a way of "humping" you, but not in a pleasant way or in a manner that makes you excited for the weekend. It's just a day that reminds me of all those un-ticked to do items I still need to get done, before the real work of Saturday and Sunday begins. I try my best to leave at least Saturday available for some well deserved ME time.  But, it always ends up as WE time and this is why Karma and me have a gentlemen's understanding on my behavior. I never seem to carve out enough play time for myself. Hence the foul language and hoping people step on Legos on their urgent run to the bathroom, when they annoy me.

I'm rambling.. I'm sorry.

What does this have to do with anything card related? Nothing... just ramblings of a crazy lady here.  Wait.. wait.  Yes. I do have a point to make. You know Saturday is coming  & if you are like me, you don't have a ton of time to make a birthday card for your best friends' mother's sister's niece. Well, here's a simple card to make using your stash of horded CHIPBOARD alphabets and clear acetate embellishments.  The Unity collaboration with Brutus Monroe and his epic background stamps makes creating a card simple and fast! Don't have his background stamps, how about using some of that new patterned paper from Unity they just released?  Add some chipboard letters for dimension and a clean and simple card has been created.

Supplies:

• Unity- Floral Tapestry
• Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink
• Teal Glittered chipboard alphabet by American Crafts
• Acetate Heart by Heidi swap  (recycle plastic packaging by cutting out images with die cut)
• Dymo label maker
• Black & White baker's twine

If this posts hasn't made you run you off, then stay tuned for tomorrow and my last crafty adventure in digging waste deep in the stuff I had to have back in 2009!

p.s.  Have you entered to win some Unity stamps?
