Hello everyone!! Welcome to my blog. I'm so excited to be Growing In Unity this week. I will be sharing projects that I made with Unity Stamps, from Monday to Friday. Let's get on to the project for today.
I made a simple Christmas card using one non-holiday stamp from Unity. It makes me happy to stretch my stamps beyond their intended use. Here's my card:
As soon I as I saw this swirl stamp from Unity stamps' Growing in Unity stamp set, I thought of winter and snow!! Also, this is the time for making Christmas cards right? So I went right ahead and made this card. The colors are not the traditional Christmas colors, but I loved this combination after I made my other Christmas card which you can see here.
I sponged a piece of white cardstock with DI Tumbled glass. Then I heat embossed the swirl stamp with Zing silver embossing powder. I cut the cardstock into 2 in a diagonal way. I matted this layer with another cardstock, slightly bigger than this and embossed it's ends with the same silver embossing powder. The sentiment, from Unity Stamps' Unto us stamp set, is also embossed with the same silver powder on the brown card base. To add some dimension, I adhered the inked panels with foam tape. I punched a snowflake using the MS Sonwflake punch and embossed it with the same silver embossing powder. Finally, I added a few blue gems from my stash.
So how do you like this card? Do visit me every day this week, and leave your thoughts and comments. I will pick 2 winners at the end of this week and they will win 25 random stamps from Unity!! How awesome is that!! See you tomorrow with another new and exciting project.
This is one of the cards for Caring Hearts Card Drive.
