It's Friends With Flair Friday and Day 4 of Growing In Unity! YAY!!!

Yup! Another Day of Growing In Unity and today is Friends with Flair, too! Fun stuff, folks, FUN STUFF!

Congratulations


Short and sweet today!

I created my card with the Bella Blvd. Sunny Happy Skies Set and some great papers and stickers from My Little Shoebox.

Congratulations (detail)


The images are stamped and then parts are watercolored with the same ink pad used to stamp the image. That's a favorite technique of mine, because I love the promise of truly matching colors! Then I added a bit of glitter to the flags to give it some sparkle and shine! *LOVE THAT!*

Here is the stamp set I used to created my card:


And...I will have even more to share with you over the weekend, so watch for some fun stuff!

***Don't forget to comment on EACH of my Growing in Unity posts for a chance to win some great stamps from Unity! I will have ONE MORE GIU post tomorrow, so come back for the last one!***

Happy Friday, folks!
