Good morning! Excited to be joining in with the Unity Stamp Company Blog Hop this morning - I am privileged to be guest designing with them this month, which is why I'm so lucky as to join in on the hop today!
Today is a special hop with Operation Write Home, and there is a brand new special release of stamps - and of course, a sale!
I got to play with the new set a little and made three cards - here is the first one:
I got to play with the new set a little and made three cards - here is the first one:
I love this sentiment! Just makes me want to stand a little straighter, hold my head a little higher, and makes my heart swell a little...so thankful for the sacrifice and bravery of all those who give so much for our freedom. I can never be grateful enough...
Next, I paired a couple of the new images with a sentiment from the December 2014 Kit of the Month - and a little watercolor of course!
Also added a few random enamel dots - I especially love those glitter stars!
And finally, this super simple one:
This flag just needed to shine on it's own - and the watercolor just helps it pop a little more!
We have an AMAZING Unity filled prize package to giveaway.

ReplyDeleteLovely cards, Heather, but I thought glitter was not to be applied to the ORH cards. Never the less I think the stars are great!!

Hi Carmen! I know glitter is a no-no, but since these are enamel dots and enclosed, I think it is okay. I will definitely check before sending them in though! Thanks!
Deleteyour layout are neat!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards - my favorite is your first one. The simplicity of the saying with the layers of paper works so well!
ReplyDeleteOh My! Love all of these!!! Beautiful! ♥

ReplyDeleteLIke the little bit of dimension on each card. And the gold glitter enamel is a great way to get glitter on a card without putting our soldiers in danger. Well played.

ReplyDeleteWhat brand are they?
Great work!
Hi Samantha! I believe they are My Mind's Eye or Eyelet Outlet - I really should remember, but I'm not positive! I love both brands and feel like they are both very similar. Hope that helps!
DeleteThese are really neat cards.
