I made it! I've posted for a whole five days straight. Welcome to my last day of challenge cards.
Today's challenge is a Unity three-fer! It's Friends with Flair Friday (if you head over there, you can find out what the special is today). Also, the monthly Unity challenge is to use falling leaves, while the Unity Kit of the Month sketch challenge looks like this:
I combined them and tweaked the sketch a little to come up with this:
All three stamps here come from different Kits of the Month: The leaves from September, the apples from July 2010, and the chair from March. I'm not sure that chair would fit in as well if the color scheme weren't so fall-ish, but I decided to just go forth and stamp with confidence...and I think I like it! This card is for my (other) aunt, who sent me a birthday gift card to one of my favorite (non-stamping) stores -- Trader Joe's! I mean, where else can I get wine, chocolate, cheese, AND friendly, Hawaiian-shirt-clad employees? Yum.
Well, thanks for stopping by -- and thanks to my "regulars" for putting up with me for a full five days. Who knows? You may be rewarded sometime soon...but that's for another day. ;)
I'll have a batch of layouts for you next, so hang onto your hats, and have a lovely day (and weekend)!

I am loving the color combination you used, Angela. The chair (and the color) is my favorite part--I'm glad you stamped with confidence. :) Oooo...Trader Joe's....lucky duck.

I like how you used the same color of ink on all the apples. Simple and nice.
