Welcome to Unity's
Friends With Flair Hop!
And Merry Christmas to you all,
may the love of God be very
real to you this season of
celebrating the birth of Jesus!

Correction! 
 The first canvas I saw was found
on Word Art Wednesday and is
seen on Tracey's blog HERE.
I was so inspired by a post
I saw on Studio JRU's In The Studio 
earlier this year (can't find it back :( )
that I just had to make
some 11 x 14 canvases of my own
 to give to dd1 & ddil!
Check out the tutorial for how
to make your own HERE.
(This link is where the person who posted on
Word Art Wednesday got her inspiration.)
She provides a free template
for the girl.

Here is my first try and
is for dd1

Lots of Unity: Dream Big & Key to My Heart Itty Bittys,
Dots for sure from Ippity,
the stamps around the edges are all Unity except the Xs.
Paper is October Afternoon's Farmhouse collection.

The second canvas is for ddil:

Stamps include Chicken Wire, flowers from Angie Girl,
the Dream Big butterflies (LOVE these!!), and the
Itty Bitty Life Documented banner.
The papers are Glitz French Kiss and The Paper Studio.
There is also tissue paper and burlap on this one.

Next week I'll share dd2's 12 x 12
that is almost finished....hey,
I have a couple days yet!

Have a wonderful, blessed
weekend and Christmas!

of Unity stamps. The words on the front 
are printed onto tissue paper &
applied with ModPodge.


ColorWash, paint, chalk ink, Copics, DIs,
rub ons, gesso & dyed molding paste.
