Growing In Unity, Day One



ME!!  :)

I am so excited to be the Growing in Unity gal this week!  I feel relatively new to the stamping world (within the last year or so), so this is kind of a big deal for me.  Every day this week I will be showing off a project I completed using Unity Stamps.  Make sure to leave me a comment because you will be entered to win your choice of 2 Itty Bitty stamp sets at the end of the week!  Sweet!

I'm not going to beg for followers.  But if you want to follow me, click over there --->  Just sayin'.  :)   

Here is the card I created for my first post:


Anyone who has been following me for a while knows that I am an aqua hoarder.  Can't. Get. ENOUGH of it.  Something I enjoy even more?  Doilies.  And burlap string.  Not necessarily in that order.  :)  I stamped the sentiment on vellum.  This card was getting a little too fancy for my taste, so I had to throw in some burlap twine to ground it a bit.  I think it turned out beautifully.  

For this card I used the stamp set Blossom Stackers. 


That's all for now!  Make sure you check back every day this week and comment for your chance to win!  Until next time...

    Congrats on your GIU week Cristine! Looking forward to checking in each day to see your creations! Love today's card! The doily is so delicate and pretty, and I am an aqua lover too! The sentiment on the vellum is a great idea, and the twine.... great card!

    Oh how I love this look. I have tried to figure out what to do with these sorts of stamps--I like how you stuck to one color. Nice.
