Festive Friends with Flair!

It was an afternoon of Christmas cardmaking here at my house -- and I made sure to ink up some Unity stamps so I could link up with this week's Friends with Flair



Last time I used this Samantha Walker tree, it was all blue, but today it's sparkly green! I didn't want too much other *stuff* on my card to compete with the bold image, so a buttery yellow cardbase, a little patterned paper, and a sparkly sentiment was all I added. I'm also going to enter this in CAS-ual Fridays latest challenge (CFC#122), Out on a Limb.
Now, if I can just ignore this week's Unity sale... 
Enjoy your weekend! 

Supplies: white, American Crafts butter & Stampin' Up glorious green cardstock, Echo Park Christmas This & That patterned paper, Unity/Samantha Walker Greetings of Christmas stamps, Versamark ink, Ranger green embossing tinsel, pop-dot tape

Pin It Now!

What a wonderful layout. I love seeing your ideas for combining patterns and textures. They remind me to pull out my patterned paper.
