I watched Craft Roulette Episode #326 tonight, featuring host Mary Gunn and guest, Jay Thomas (@craftbyjay) making his 3rd appearance. Jay is live on YouTube on Sunday nights and he loves cats!!
Here's my card (sorry Jay, no cat):
Supplies: Paper - Neenah Classic Crest Solar White;
Recollections A2 card & black cardstock; dotted by unk
Stamps - Unity Still Kickin'
Dies - AJVD Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set
Other - printed sentiment strip (brand unk);
Copic Markers; TH Black Soot Distress Ink;
Black and white gel pens
As usual, the roulette wheel was spun four times for the necessary parameters. Mary and Jay created their cards on camera - so fun to listen to their banter while I was crafting along. Like last week, I was able to complete & upload my card before they finished.
- Project - A Dude's Card: - I made a card for a man, a former coworker.
- Colors - Sleigh Ride: I used red/black/grey.
- Element - Farm Critter(s): I used a donkey image.
- Random - Pen: I used both black and white gel pens.
You may remember I ordered a bunch of Unity stamps recently. The donkey image was another fun find - I thought it would make a great birthday card for a man friend with whom I worked in two different offices over the years. Isn't Party Donkey just the cutest?!
I stamped the image, colored with Copics and cut the panel with a stitched rectangle. Inked around the edges with Black Soot DI. Matted the panel in black and added to a dotted paper & a red A2 card. Added details with a white and a black gel pen - done!
I will add my card to Seize the Birthday #329 using the Anything Goes option. I will also share at Darnell's July NBUS Challenge #88 since my donkey stamp got first play today. Oh and btw - Darnell has some sponsors this month and Unity is one of them!!
That's it for today. Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a crafty day!

You had me at donkey, Linda! He is hysterical and we need fun cards more than ever! I love the design with your coloring and the pop of red from the party hat. Plus, I love how you framed it! Your former work friend will get a huge kick out of this. (You see what I did there?!) Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
