FWF-Unity Hydrangeas

Hello! Happy Friday! I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend with my guys.  No big plans, so who knows what we will end up doing!
My card today features some oldie but goodie Unity favorites.  The ledger background and hydrangea flowers are from one of my favorite sets, Moments In Bloom.  The sentiment is from the July2010 KOTM. I inked up my hydrangeas with some SU markers along with the leaves.  I stamped them on top of the ledger, which was stamped in bordering blue.  I used distress inks on all of my paper edges and distressed the edges with a pair of scissors.  The border punch used is MS, and the baker's twine is from The Twinery.

On a side note...thank you so much to all of my stamping friends who have supported me over the course of the past 24 hours.  Sometimes it is a risk to stand up for what you believe in.  It is hard to put on your brave girl boots, not knowing how others may or may not react.  In my heart, I know I did the right thing. I just wanted to let you guy knows how much I appreciate your emails, phone calls and love and support.  This stamping community of ours is THE BEST!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Emily
