Growing in Unity 2023, Day 4

to be remembered on one's birthday

is a thrill — to know others are saying

with cakes, cards, and good wishes

thanks for being born into our lives!

~Terri Guillemets, "Keepsake," 2013

Growing in Unity 2023, Day 3

The Daisy is a Weed of little Worth—

Save that it makes a Dearer Place of Earth.

~Arthur Guiterman, "Of Flowers and Bees," A Poet's Proverbs, 1924

Good morning!

This is my day 3 as a Unity Gal sharing another card I made using a Unity Stamp set.

I do hope you enjoy my projects! Also, please make sure you comment on the post each day as at the end of the week I get to pick two people who will receive a $20 credit to the store!

Today’s card uses a stamp & stencil set from Unity Stamps called de Fleur daisy.

Daisies are another one of my three favorite flowers so I was really intrigued when this set came out. This was my first time using and I really enjoyed the process. The layering stencils are great to work with as they are sturdy and nicely numbered so you know which one to use in order.

 
Supplies, card size: 5 x 7

• Unity Stamp set de Fleur Daisy & Stencil
• Unity Stamp Polka Dance Background
• Unity stamp set Hugs, Kisses & birthday wishes (Sentiment)
• Cardstock from The Paper Studio (Base) & Hammermill color copy
• Glitter glue from Studio G

Growing in Unity 2023, Day 2

Dandelions:

...the yellow blossoms, starry dandelions fair...

...golden wands, yellow treasures rare...

...in fair or stormy weather, dandelions still bloom on...

...no gold of earth discloses half the joy childhood knows...

...starry blossoms bloom below you and shine at your feet...

~Ouina (Cora L. V. Scott Richmond), given through her Medium "Water Lily," Ouina's Canoe, 1882 [poem-pluckt phrases, a little altered —tg

Good morning!
This is my day 2 as a Unity Gal sharing another card I made using a Unity Stamp set.

I do hope you enjoy my projects! Also, please make sure you comment on the post each day as at the end of the week I get to pick two people who will receive a $20 credit to the store!

Today’s card features dandelions
I love dandelions!
I’m that person that sees wishes on the wind when I pick one up and blow on it.

This card also features a stamping off or double stamp technique where you ink the stamp. This is where you ink your stamp and stamp several times without re-inking. This results in the same color tone but lighter. It’s a great technique for adding some depth to your card.

Supplies, card size: 5 x 7

• Unity Stamps, Wish with your heart & Worn music background
• Cardstock from Stampin Up! & Hammermill color copy
• Ink from Stampin Up!
• Sequins from Unity Stamps

May ev'ry birthday sweetly bring,

A thousand proofs of love;

Of bliss from Heav'n above!
