Hello all! Welcome to Day 1 of my Growing in Unity week. I am thrilled to be able to showcase
Unity Stamp Co. products every day this week. Make sure you follow along and comment on my blog each day for a chance to win $20 Unity gift certificates sponsored by Unity Stamp Co!
On to my first project...a set of TWELVE masculine birthday cards.
These were created using
Jess Crafts' 12x12 Paper Busting Template #21 sketch. I simply adjusted the orientation of the card for the two types of cards. This first one uses patterned paper from DCWV's Guy stack and
Unity Say It Big dies and
stamp set. The stamp was inked with Scrapbook.com
Cinnamon ink. The die cut panel was popped up with
foam tape. Other adhesives used include
Bearly Art precision glue and
ATG. GMD Peacock clear enamel dots were the perfect embellishment.
The second set of cards used the same patterned paper, but a different stamp set. This time I used Unity's
I Consider You Special stamp set with Scrapbook.com
Cinnamon ink and die cut around it with a
GMD slash stitched rounded square die. I added two leaf die cuts from the
Sizzix Wild Blooms #2 set. The green leaf was inked with SB.com
Olive ink and popped up with
foam tape. Other adhesives used include
Bearly Art precision glue and
ATG. GMD Rainbow foil enamel dots were the perfect finishing touch.
Make sure you leave a comment here before you go and come back tomorrow for another project!
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
What a great start to your GIU week! I love both sets of cards and like how you can make them either masculine or feminine by simply switching up the papers.
