Growing in Unity Week!


Hi!  Welcome to my first day at the Growing in Unity Gal.  I'm excited to bring you new projects each day this week, featuring Unity Stamps.  Today, I will am featuring the Adventurous Itty Bitty stamp set.  I loved the fun balloon stamp.  I colored it with my watercolor pencils for a soft, flying through the air affect.  The cloud paper is actually a My Mind's Eye journaling card, cut down to fit a card front.  The "ad-ven-tur-ous" stamp is actually stamped in the label section of the card.  I'm sure I'm not the only one with a bunch of journaling cards sitting around collecting dust.  My new obsession in crafting is to use the cards to make quick and easy cards.  



Comment along all week for a chance to win a 25 stamp grab bag from Unity Stamps!

See you tomorrow with my next project!

Cheers!
Kristy

  25. Beautiful job on the hot air balloon. I say, if you can find some way to make your card making easier - good job! Hmm - maybe I need to look into the MME journal cards.

  28. Hi Kristy. Your card is so sweet.
    I like the way you think... I too am trying to use up something with every card I make. I don't want to become a hoarder and I DO have a LOT of paper/embellishments building up. I have been making cards for 16 yrs, so you can just imagine??? (Its a good thing I am an organizational freak, otherwise I would really be in trouble! LOL)
