Friends with Flair.

Good Morning..


Today I am sharing a layout I did awhile ago of My sweet Guy.



Using Unity's Giving all Meaning background stamp!!


I started off with a purple cardstock.. a colour I hardly use.. and glued on some odd chipboard letters, numbers and shapes.. I them used gesso paint and covered the background 3 times.. and the last coat was a cream colour acrylic paint.. I then let it dry and took my background stamp and with the distress old paper ink by tim holtz and stamped on top of the chipboard pieces.. I love love how this technique looks on a layout.

My Guy
Love this guy of mine.. he is my best friend, my biggest supporter and the love of my life.
He is my Prince!!


And my GUY bought me these this morning.. He suggested we go to Marshall's grand opening and look around. They had some nice stuff.. and he bought me these cute leather slip-ons..


love the square toes for my little duck feet.. and they have a heel.. I will be a little taller this summer. hehe



Oh and I just love this sweater.. 85% cotton will look amazing with capris and my linen pants.




I am also excited and a little nervous.. This coming Monday I will be doing my first video for Unity TV.. ahhhh!!! I can't wait to share it with you all. I am excited about this adventure in Unity TV land. Here is a Sneak at my Project.

Recipe for Hummus.

Hummus.. this is like having peanut butter in my family. It is a staple in our house!!

My love for Hummus started as a teen, I worked at a Mall and the Deli place sold the best hummus ever.. I would always buy it in the grocery store but it never quite compaired to the homemade Hummus Sammy use to make.


Well the last time we bought hummus it was $4.00 for a small container and we ended up spending $12.00 for some that would only last us a week and a bit.. so we went and searched You Tube for a recipe.. and came to this funny video.. I just had to share.. the Hummus song.. FUNNY






So here is my recipe for Hummus.

1 can of chick peas
2 cloves of crushed garlic
the juice of 2 lemons
1/4 cup of olive oil
1/8 cup of water
dash of ground roasted cumin
salt to taste
put it all in a blender and blend until smooth.. that is it.. so easy and delicious!!
Now it only costs us less than $4.00 for a huge amount.. and the family is eating it up like crazy!! yummy and good.

Hope you give it a try.
enjoy
Angie
