Growing in Unity Day 5

For my last post during my Growing in Unity week, I've got some fun stuff!  I love Unity Stamps - they are AWESOME, and I've loved creating my projects this week!  Be sure to leave a comment for a chance to win two Itty-Bitty stamps!!  First, the card, in celebration of Angela's Birthday SALE!


I got this Birthday Wishes stamp as part of my stamp-of-the-week club a while back, but I didn't put it where it was supposed to go, so this was my first opportunity to use it.  I love how it turned out.  I used sparkly pens on the stars (hard to see in the picture...)  I am submitting it to Friday Friends with Flair at Unity....  I'm also submitting it to Reasonable Ribbon who asked us to use our new toys.  (I used a new chomper corner rounder I got at Christmas...)  Finally, the Paper Girls Challenge said to use ledger paper.  I never use that side of double-sided paper, but I love how it looks on this card - great challenge!

As if all that wasn't fun enough, today is the Crop Chocolate Design Team blog-hop.  Wanna see some very crafty ladies and have a chance for some great blog candies?  Start at Amber's post here....and enjoy the ride.

Hope y'all are having a FABULOUS Friday!

Craftily yours,

Karen (karey2005)

    Woohoo for you! What a fantastic week you've had. I love this card! How did you get the shape behind the candles? Looks like a Spellbinders die, then cut straight on one side? Maybe? You rocked you GIU week, girlfriend!

    Karen, this is so cute! I love the different color layers that you used...makes each one pop! Hey, I just found that you were GIU, so don't put me in your drawing. Off to see your other creations... =)
