Growing in Unity Blog Hop 1/24/16

Welcome back to my blog!!  I will be showcasing some of my favorite cards that I have made with my Unity stamps.

This was one of my first cards using Tim Holtz distress inks to make a background.  Using inks and gelatos to make backgrounds is my current obsession!  This card also serves to remind me to celebrate everything, even the small things (like a sunset/sunrise).

 

This fashionista was made using gold embossing powder.  I love the simplistic and classic look of this card.  Age and glassed of wine should never be counted.  This was the perfect birthday card to send to one of my wine loving friends!


I saw the background paper at Joann Fabrics one day and it instantly reminded me of the Big Bang Theory.  I just had to buy it!  Then, once I saw these stamps, I knew that I had to combine the two!  A sweet valentine for a nerdy friend!


Thanks for hopping with me!  Don't forget to leave a comment for a chance to win!

      I meant to say: Awesome cards, I LOVE that you used fabric on the "space" card! I once made a great Christmas card with fabric and it matched the Christmas tree skirt that I had given our son!

    Great cards! I love all three of them! I have seen the background paper you used on the third card and never picked it up; I will be getting it if I see it again.
    I have not used gelatos yet but I love the background on your first card with them.
    The embossing on the second card really makes the image and sentiment stand out.

    I really like the first card. The colors are amazing! And, thanks to one of the GUI posts, I went and bought a couple of packs of gelatos even though I have no idea how to use them!
