Growing In Unity - Day One

Hello everyone,

Welcome to my little corner of the cyber world. I am very excited to be the GIU Gal this week and can't wait to share my projects with you. I have loved Unity Stamps for a long time and have quite the collection. I sold a lot of my craft supplies earlier this year, however, I would not part with any of my Unity Stamps! I am starting off my week quick and easy with my little hello card!


I have used an Itty Bitty stamp for this card, it's IB-939 hello Daisy. I love the simplicity of the stamp and I stamped it two times for effect. I coloured it in with colouring pencils and then applied a layer of white colouring pencil to blend it all together. I created the background by covering the card with strips of washi tape.

Well that's it for my first card. Please leave a comment below to go in the running for a prize. at the end of the week I will randomly choose two people from the comments left to win a prize pack from the very generous Unity Stamps.

Thanks for visiting. Take care and happy crafting,
Helen xx

    This is so pretty with all the happy coors you used.
    Using washi as the BG is a fun and easy (if you get
    them straight! lol) technique I like to use.

    Love the card and what a way to use washi tape. I have never put any on a card yet, somehow I do not like it with ripped edges, just me I see beautiful cards but love how you used it for your background for pretty flowers

    What a sweet card! I really like how the flowers match the washi tape background so nicely! And I also love the tiny little hearts that you have on each flower just so precious!!

    Sweet card - who wouldn't love to open an envelope and find that? Love your colour choices and the way you've blended them on the flower.
