Growing in Unity {Day 5} + Friends With Flair

Since this is the last day of my Growing in Unity week, I'd like to share one of the four Unity cards I had published in Card Creations: Volume 10. I combined three stamps from three different sets to make this card. I chose the colours as I normally do, by moving my ink pads around and seeing which ones look good together. I started by stamping the alphabet border, from What I Know, from the bottom up and made sure that I didn't stamp them in the same area each time. That way you see different alphabets on each strip and it creates movement. Afterwards, I randomly tore a piece of scrap paper to use as a mask for the Stars of Worn background. I masked the top of the card and stamped the stars on top of the alphabet border. To finish, I stamped the sentiment from Favorite Sentiments and adhered the mat to the card base.

You have until 2:00 a.m. EST Saturday morning to comment on all five of my Growing in Unity posts this week. Sometime tomorrow, I will announce the winner via Random.org and that lucky lady will win two itty bitty stamps of her choice from Unity Stamp Company. Thank you, Unity, for having me as the Growing in Unity Gal this week! And thank you to everyone who came by to see what I made. It's always a pleasure having you here. :)
