Friends with Flair Friday and it's been a busy week! My son just had his braces put on, so I'm having to make "soft" foods for dinner, since his teeth are sore. Good thing Thanksgiving is coming...lots of mashed potatoes for him!
I hope you enjoy all of the yummy Unity goodness as you browse through all the customer blogs...so much to see!
Today, I am sharing my entry for the
final Unity Bachelor Bro Challenge. There were seven of us participants, and we were to send in an altered gift to our "boyfriend Bro"! Even though I did not win, it was so fun, and I was honored to be able to join these talented gals in this last challenge! Take a look at their fantastic creations
here!
I sent Ryan a magnetic calendar, created from a picture frame. All of the days on the calendar, and the sentiments to be placed under the "today" sign, are all exchangeable (magnets). I painted the overall frame, distressed it a little and then modge podged it. Then I put all the embellishments along the outside of the frame.
Here's a full view:
The top half view:
The bottom half view (oh btw...the round circles are magnets too, and you can just put them over the appropriate month and day):
Now, if you want to check the details out closer...here are some detailed views of the outside frame.
Around parts of the frame I stamped in Versamark and heat embossed with SU Classy Copper Embossing Powder:
This sentiment is tied with twine to the ribbon, and popped up on the frame:
I stamped Ryan's name and popped up the letters:
Rock-On cut out and more heat embossing:
I paper pieced the guitar, popped it up, and used twine for the guitar strings:
Popped up the heart and placed an arrow behind it:
This is the small 3x3 card to Ryan:
This pouch has various embellished sentiments that I made to exchange daily (or whenever) to be placed under the 'TODAY' word on the top half of the calendar:
One last photo of everything:
Sorry for such a long post, but I wanted to get these pic's in. Make sure to explore
Unity's sales items too! Thanks for coming by and have a fabulous weekend!
