Unity Friends with Flair - You never leave me hanging!


Good morning to another Friday - and another Unity Friends with Flair!!! 
I was so excited when my new KOTM showed up in the mail this week - so I had to ink it up as quickly as possible! I also used my new Theresa Collins 6x6 paper pad. 
Isn't that the cutest image and sentiment? I did a bunch of machine stitching on this as well. 
The buttons and the twine they are tied with is from Paper Trey Ink - and wanna know a secret? They were an afterthought...cause I got inky fingers and left a smudge there - so I had to cover it up! 
The tension on my sewing machine was a little messed up, and I had a different color thread in the bobbin, but I am actually quite pleased with the effect - however unintentional it was! I also sewed on some pom pom trim from my stash. 
Finished off by inked the edges of the papers with Tim Holtz distress ink in Antique Linen, and Walnut Stain. 
Thanks for stopping by - make sure and head over to the Unity Blog for all the details on Friends with Flair and join the fun!
