Unity and Friends with Flair-Gratitude Trees

It's been a while since I have 
linked up anything with 
the Friday
linky. 

Did you know you could share your
Unity Stamp Co. 
creations with everyone
quick and easily
EVERY FRIDAY??

I've got two cards today 
using the same stamp set.
This one is this month's
Layers of Life set, called

I'm in love! The images
are gorgeous and 
there are so many ways to combine them.
I love how blue (navy inparticular)
is showing up in 
fall color combos this season.
I used that in both of my cards today.


I stamped the tree image off the the left
side of my cardstock , a bit. 
Adds a bit of interest and tied in to the 
strip of fuse green cardstock I added along the side.


I stamped the sentiment
onto a strip of blue striped designer paper, 
and then accented that with some Hot Fudge cs
and a few fun enamel dots. 

I used the same 
 stamp set for my 
next card and 
used this month's 
Be Inspired sketch. 
Come play along.
You can see the challenge details.

I wanted to show off the gorgeous leaves
included in this stamp set. 
I stamped them onto 
some Farmhouse Paper co. 
paper in brown and grey ink
and then cut them out. 
I sponged on some distress ink and 
ran them through my Crimper
for more texture. 

You can also see I used the large tree stamp, again. 
but I stamped it with 
a Versamark pad,
 to give a watermark feel 
to the background.
it's subtle and so sweet. 


Happy Friday!!
Be sure to stop by the Unity Blog
for the FWF 
link up.
