Growing in Unity Day Five: The Favorite

Welcome back for my last day as a GIU Gal for Unity Stamps.  This week has really flown by and I've enjoyed reading all your comments.  As promised, today's card was made using my favorite Unity stamp set "Grey Skies Happy".  I don't suppose it will surprise anyone that it is a Phyllis Harris set - I LOVE all her sets!  I think there are several reasons that this is my favorite set.  The rainy weather theme is perfect for Washington state.  The set reminds me a little bit of one of my favorite childhood books Ramona the Pest, which is probably why I always end up coloring the rain boots red.  I also tend to color the image kind of the way little girls around 3 or 4 like to get dressed - they put on their prettiest items or the ones they like best with no regard to whether they go together or not.

I hope you can read the sentiment.  Photographing that part of the card was tricky.  In case you can't read it - it says "You make me happy when skies are grey".

Growing in Unity Day 3: The Unity Stamps that started it all

Thanks for joining me for Day 3 of my GIU week. Today, I'm using the Unity Stamps that were my introduction to the company. I stumbled onto Unity during a blog hop, I'm not even sure it was a Unity blog hop, but somehow by exploring the different blogs I saw a card made using both of these Itty Bitty sets and immediately fell in love and placed my first Unity order.  The names of these sets are: Perfect Day Hummingbird and Too Much, Too Often Daisies 

Don't forget to leave a comment so you can be entered to win some Unity stamps for yourself!  There will be two winners. Today's question: What is your favorite animal to stamp and use in your cards?  And yes, cartoonish animals count, too.  Thanks for stopping by!  See you tomorrow! - DeAnn

Growing In Unity Day Two: Reminds me of Kansas

Welcome back to Day Two of my Growing In Unity Week.  I loved reading your comments and finding out how long you have been a fan of Unity Stamps.  I found Unity Stamps (or maybe they found me) about 3 or 4 years ago during a blog hop.  I saw the most adorable card and just had to have the stamps!
Today's card is also featuring a Phyllis Harris stamp set, this one is called Face the Sunshine.  I love the sunflowers and the girl's hair blowing in the wind, both of which remind of Kansas.  I grew up in Eastern Kansas about an hour away from the capital, Topeka and even though there are a lot more trees in Eastern Kansas than the open plains of Western Kansas, it's still crazy windy most of the time! When I was going to college, I lived closer to the Kansas/Oklahoma border and there were a few fields that were completely filled with sunflowers!  I loved to drive by those fields and see the sunflowers move their faces to follow the sun!

If you love Phyllis Harris stamps, be sure to check out the sale Unity Stamps is having right now.  They have the Phyllis Harris stamps (and others, too) 50% off!  I don't know when the sale ends, so don't wait too long to check it out!
