One Little Word ~ Ali Edwards!

If you are a fan of Ali Edwards, then you know she chooses one word for the year that she focuses on. 2010 was the year of "story". 2011 will be the year of "light". Usually she shares her journey with us via her website but she is now offering a class with Big Picture Classes! I am super excited and just signed up! I will share my experience with the class on this blog. Just a few more weeks til the class starts and I'll announce my word 1-1-11.

Unity's Friends With Flair Friday!

Hello Unity Friends! My current project is the December Daily inspired by Ali Edwards, check it out here. For my December Daily Album, I am using page protectors from scrapbook.com and I have about 6 different styles of these throughout the album. I decided to use the protectors because I live in Arizona and the dust is ridiculous, no mini album stands a chance of surviving without protection. These are a few 4 x 4 embellishments I made with Unity Stamps, they will find a home on a page protector of 9 4x4 squares.

The first is an Itty Bitty, "Find the Joy" and the next is from a previous Kit of the Month. I stamped the images and had some fun coloring with markers. My favorite thing right now is this random sparkle pen which I used on both embellishments on the lettering.


Don't forget to check out all the flair at http://theunitystampco.blogspot.com/. Also, Unity has a new website that rocks and a ton of new co-brand stamps! My favorites are from I.O.D., check them out here.

Enjoy the day and remember to get crafty!

Life

Life has definitely gotten in the way of crafting these days and I've seriously been going through crafty withdraws. :) I have one more month left in this pregnancy and it has been a rough one! So many more symptoms with this one, compared to my first. The latest is a super fast heart...sometimes I feel like I'm gonna pass out! Docs are checking things out so hopefully I will know soon if this is just a pregnancy thing.

Along with health stuff, I dropped my laptop last week and was without for a while! Luckily my husband is super talented with tech stuff and fixed it. Now I can start working on pictures for my December Daily Album! I hope to post some pages this weekend. If you love Ali Edwards, check out this project on her blog at http://aliedwards.com/2010/12/december-daily-day-seven-3.html
