It is Friends with Flair Friday at Unity Stamp Co! See the Unity blog for a complete list of today's Friends with Flair.
For my Unity FWF project I altered some playing cards into ornaments after I saw an article in Somerset's Holidays & Celebrations issue, by Candyce Martens. I changed it up a bit, by adding mulberry paper, distress paint and glimmer mist. I then stamped over them with Versafine Onyx ink and Unity stamps! For the large butterfly, I embossed with gold EP.
