Day 3 - Growing In Unity - Scrapper Myra

It's already the middle of the week. We are almost there. 

This is my third post as a Growing In Unity gal.  Remember to follow all my five posts this week and leave comments in all for a chance to win stamps from Unity Stamp Co. 

The post today will feature two cards. 
The first one is a CAS style. Clean And Simple means the project is very easy to replicate and it usually also has one dimension. I used the same Stamp (image of bottles) and repeated it in a pattern alternating different ink colors. 



Below that pattern I sprayed some color and when dried I stamped the sentiment right on the cardstock. 


I added some sequins and the card was done. 

I started this second card with cardstock base to which I glued some patterned paper divided in two pieces and purposefully misplaced them so they are not aligned. Why?  Because I wanted it to be imperfect as the sentiment reads.  


Separately I stamped the image and colored with watercolor pencils.  I made a border frame with patterned paper and applied glossy accents and glitter.   I adhered the image to burlap and then placed the frame border with dimensional adhesives to make it pop. 


The sentiment was stamped in the upper left corner and added mini sequins for a final touch. 


Hope you liked these cards  and that you can get some inspiration for your own projects.  Again... Don't forget to comment below and in my Facebook page.  You'll find me as Scrapper Myra. 

Thanks!!!

A review of the GIU process and a surprise bonus:

Posts will be originated in my blog and you can visit everyday to read the post and comment.  You will want to comment  on all five posts because at the end of the week I will choose two random winners to receive 25 stamps from Unity.  

But there's more...  I will share the link in my Facebook page too.  If you like my page, and also follow the Facebook posts interacting with likes, comments and shares,  you will participate in another draw to win a kit from Unity (this one"s on me!).

Thank you again for your participation and support. 

Sneak Peek for tomorrow:
Hint:  boxed

I am also sharing this creation and all this week with my friends at Craft Stamper magazine. There's an Anything Goes Challenge going on and am trying to participate as much as possible to collaborate with it.

Both well done cards! I especially liked the "imperfect" one. The burlap gives the impression of a woven grass mat under the image.

Suzanne said...

Love these! The "imperfect" one is just stunningly beautiful.

Becca Yahrling said...

These are my favorite so far! I love the designs of both
and the touches of sparkle added to each one. Love the
colors and the coloring. The sentiments are both awesome
in their own way.

Adorable cards! I love the wine bottles in multi colors. My step-mom loves her evening glass of wine. I may need to get this stamp!

La de los vinos me encanta! Los colores, el stamp y el pensamiento están espectaculares!

Now I need the morals stamp.... My wish list should just be the Unity catalog. As for your other card. I'm stealing the way you used those rhinestones! Another great project!

The glitter looks great on the frame. I like the image of the woman, and the sentiment, too. We all need to be reminded...
