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...
