{Growing in Unity} Girl ~ Day 3

Wow. My week is already half over. I'm so honored to be the {Growing in Unity} Girl for the Unity Stamp Company, this week. It's time for card number 3. Here's my card.




I used Unity Stamp's Focus on the Things stamp set for this card. I stamped the main image using Versafine Onyx Black ink. I was selective as to where I added color - the flowers and greenery using Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. My goal was to "focus" on the contrast between the black and white and the bright colors. The sentiment is from the same stamp set. I added a strip of black striped paper on the left to further emphasize the black/white to anchor the main panel. 


Unity Stamps will be giving out grabs bags of 25 stamps to two random people who comment on my {Growing in Unity} posts, this week. I'll announce the winners next week.

Thanks for stopping by

  7. I love how you made the florals the focal point. I have this stamp but I haven't used it yet. I may need to try your technique. 😊
