Growing In Unity GIU Girl, Again! Woot!



Good Morning, Everyone! I'm thrilled to say that I'm lucky enough to have another opportunity to be a Growing in Unity GIU girl, for the week, for  Unity Stamp Company!  I'm sure you're familiar with their stamps, but, if you aren't, you really must check them out!  They're a small, family owned company and every order is cooked to order, just for you.  The quality of their stamps, and their customer service is amazing! Not to mention the fabulous selection of stamps, sentiments and inspiration. If you've never heard of Unity Stamp Company, please check them out! You'll be glad you did!

For My first project for this week, I was feeling a little fruity, so I've used one of thier smaller, sets, which they lovingly call "Itty Bitties."  (Gotta admit, I LOVE the name of this line)  This image and sentiment is from the set, Melon One, from Unity Stamp Company The image and stamp were stamped with  black Amalgam ink, by Gina K.  (Love this ink - Works great with any medium!) The images were colored with markers and fussy cut, by hand. All papers were from my stash, the banners were hand cut from scraps. I used black pearls in the center of the card, as well as in the upper right and lower left corners of the card. I also used tiny black pearls on the eyes of each watermelon slice.

I hope you enjoy the card today. Please, leave me some love in the comments. It's always great to hear from those who stop by and visit. And, you may even win some goodies for commenting! As a Growing In Unity GIU girl, I'm lucky enough to be able to give away a grab bag from Unity Stamp Company. to one lucky commenter, this week. How's that for awesome?! Want a chance to win? Stop by every day this week and leave a comment on my project.  At the end of the week, I'll draw one of you lucky ducks to win a grab bag of stamps from Unity Stamp Company, just for leaving me some love!

Stop by, tomorrow, to see what I have up my sleeve, for Day 2!
