[1.30.2014] unity thursday hopping fun
Happy Friday EVE… the Unity Design team is celebrating (like we do every week) with a fun
hop. If you have been hopping you should be arriving from Joslyn’s blog, if not, all the action starts on the Unity blog.
I don’t think I’ve shown anything from this month’s Kit of the Month yet! Eeek. That is just plain awful. We are going to solve that today!
I seriously LOVE this kit. It is full of stunning stamps. I admit it, I grabbed my favorites first. Here is a look at the kit again, just because it is so beautiful.
I stamped the circle woodgrain on the card base three times in random directions. I wanted to put my butterfly at the center where they overlap. So I stamped three butterflies in different colors, trimmed them out and then stapled them together. They look so pretty fanned out. I popped it up on the card with foam adhesive. Next, I stamped my sentiment and glued it to the front. Last came the pretty sequins. They just seemed necessary. My color palette for this card came from the current {be inspired} challenge. Have you played along yet? You should, the prize is amazing.
