Here we are on Day 3 of my Growing in Unity week. When I think of Unity images, one of the first things I think of are trees and natural images. Unity has GREAT trees & one of my favorite things to do with them is to paper piece with subtle pattern papers as I've done on my first project for today. I took several coordinating papers from the
My Minds Eye Freebird Collection & stamped the tree images from the
Tiny Trinity set . Then I cut them out and attached them to the tree that I had stamped on the base. It's an easy, but sometimes time consuming task depending on the piece you are cutting. I love how this first card turned out!
My next project also uses the
Tiny Trinity set along with a sentiment from the
Hodge Podge of Happiness kit. I also used some gorgeous
Moss Green Corduroy Ribbon for some great texture.
My last card is actually a layout I've done before, but I like it & wanted to put a little bit different spin on it. I used the
Gratitude = Joy set & then added a bit of texture with a
Quickuts Diamond embossing plate.
I hope you're enjoying my projects this week! Make sure you stop back tomorrow for some fun little flutterbys ~
Wow! That's some crazy cutting but I LOVE the result. These are all just fabulous.
