Growing in Unity Day # 3

Welcome to day 3 of my Growing in Unity, it's my second time doing it and it is a complete blast.  I am a huge fan of Unity Stamps, and while I used to prefer clear stamps I have now become a red rubber fan.  I love the quality of the stamps and while some companies make great quality clear some do not and I find I don't have to worry about the image quality when am using them.  Please leave a comment on each day of my blog and I will draw two winners to receive 25 random Unity Stamps.

With the Christmas season coming up I need to get some teacher and daycare gifts done.  I used the Angie Girl Jen (teacher), and colored the image and then fussy cut it out.  I then stamped the blackboard on black cardstock and heat embossed the white ink with embossing powder to get a more vibrant image.   I will be giving the teachers a set of thank you cards as a gift so be sure to check out tomorrows post to see one of the sets.



Supplies used: Unity Stamps, Craft Smith Mint Pink Paper, Shinhan Markers, Memento Ink, Ranger Embossing Powder, CTMH Ink

  7. This is perfect for a teacher! I love the blackboard! The white embossing really ads to the card. I'm frustrated with the clear stamps too. I have to use a file on them just so the ink will stick. Add costly as they are I shouldn't have to do that. I buy almost all my stamps from Unity Stamp Company now.
