Growing In Unity


GIU Day #5: Thanks for visiting my blog all week! I love all the comments and it's great to get so many visitors to my site! I even have a few new followers which is SO great! So thank you, so very much, for stopping by! For the last day as a Growing In Unity girl, I thought I would make two cards to show off some really cute Unity Stamps.


I don't really pull this first set out a lot, but since I wanted to make a 'teacher-type' card, I thought what a good stamp to use as it looks like someone practicing writing the word "cute"!
 
Sentiment stamp: Unity Stamp Co. ('Garden Variety' set)
Stamp: Unity Stamp Co. ('Hodge Podge of Happiness')
Twine: The Twinery (Maraschino)
Patterned paper: My Mind's Eye 
Markers: Copic



Again, a HUGE thank you to everyone that visited and left comments. Please stop by Saturday to see if your name has been chosen to win 2 Itty Bittys. I had a great week and I hope you enjoyed my cards. Please visit again very soon!

    Both of your cards are wonderful, Jessica, but I really like the 2nd one. The embossing, the pearls, and the sentiment work together so well.

    Great cards, love how you used the embossing folder with just a sentiment stamp. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Great cards! Never thought to use the 'cute' from the Cosmo Cricket set for a teacher's card - great idea! and love the second card - especially the touch of pearls.

    Jessica your cards are fabulous. The sentiment you have used on your second card is one of my favorite Unity Stamps and I love the CAS design using it.

    I love your cards! They really made me think about going back to Hodge Podge of Happiness, one of the first sets I bought. Great apple!
