Limelight Pairs! and Bling!

I don't know why, but I've been in a very patriotic mood lately. Maybe it has to do with the upcoming celebration (just a few weeks!), or the crappy things the government is doing, but hey - go with the feeling, right?

I made two cards for the Limelight Challenge (LLPC023). Yes, 2 cards at the same time! Very rare for me I know. I loved these DPs from Scenic Route, and I just received my Unity in America set by the very talented Tanis! This is a special offer that you can't get through the Unity website. You must get it through Memory Making Crafts and they have it on sale.

The LL 23 challenge required use of a sketch and bling. I'm still getting used to bling, but now I notice that I can spot a card in need! My bling includes metal stars from Colorbok, rhinestones from Michael's, iridescent ice embossing powder (with Versamark ink) from SU!, and Smooch! Love this stuff!

Besides the Unity stamp, I used a star from Gina K for the iridescent ice. The white stitched ribbon is from Gina K (Stamp TV kit), and the other is some miscellaneous ribbon I received in a swap. Finally, I used Gina K's red, white and blue brads.

I hope you've enjoyed these, and they help you reach that patriotic feeling!

Ta for now, ~ky
