Sharing love Universally
I am so gracious to have a family like Unity! I love all they have to offer but even more so, the opportunity to get to know so many wonderful woman and men. I love that we get to share who we are as individuals with one another and also with those who don't know us.This was a card created for a child that Angela had heard of and we all just jumped in to send her love. That is what Unity is all about. Coming together as a whole and sharing nothing but love.
I Just want to take a moment to tell all of you, friends near and far...
Happy Valentines Day! I really hope, no matter where you are in life, you feel love. I have to say when I think of Valentines day I think of the recent paper I wrote for Church and our community about love letters to Jesus. He is Love and shows us love daily. When you aren't feeling so loved or even feeling down, look to God and know He Is your father and He loves you far beyond any kind of chocolates, cards or Flowers.
Also know that we are a community too and love to share prayers, thoughts, crafts and Coffee! So don't be afraid to Join in at Unity show and Tell and make new friends!
I started this card by using yellow card stock from papertrey and a piece of black too. I cut it into a 4x4 size. Then I used Ken Oliver's colorburst and watercolor paper to create this vibrant background.
I heat set it and stamped it with this beautiful Angie girl from UNITY
Then I took a heart stencil and outlined her with yellow hearts. I created the yellow paste with golden heavy paste and yellow mist from Tattered Angels line!
Thank you for stopping by my day Two of Growing in Unity
Leave a comment everyday and I will be drawing two names for a 25 stamp grab bag! Compliments of Unity!
Carly, this is beautiful! One of my favorite Unity girl stamps. I love the bright colors! Hugs - Sharon

ReplyDeleteGolden is the brand name of heavy paste. It is a molding paste but is substantially heavy compared to the usual paste. it takes longer to dry.
DeleteSo beautifully done Carly!
