Growing in Unity November 2024 Day One

Hello lovelies! I am so excited to be Growing in Unity this week. Welcome to Day One. I am 100% a dog person, but I am loving the kitty stamps, Unity has been putting out there...especially this one from the set, a little not fine. The sentiments in this kit are equally amazing. I had to use one on this card. 





This kitty gives me all the feels. She is so sweet and stinking adorable. I had to have her. The torn paper stamp is from the kit, jot it down background. I stamped it on a piece of Gypsy Chick (Pink Paislee) pattern paper. I stamped the kitty on the back side of this paper and cut it with a brand new die I recently purchased at Joann's. It comes with 3 stamps. It is from Vicki Boutin and American Crafts. This kitty stamp is so detailed, it only needs a little bit of color when stamped on pattern paper. The sentiment was stamped on the side the kitty was stamped on. I distressed the edges with ink. The mini paper clip is Unity. I layered this piece on pattern paper with foam adhesive. Card base is made from white, heavy weight card stock.

I am not used to making clean and simple cards. It was hard for me not to add more, lol. But sometimes, less is more. In this case, less is more, I guess. I'm still not convinced, lol. I told myself to walk away, come back, and decide if it still needed something more. Clean and simple won.

Thanks for stopping by! Make sure you leave a comment each day for a chance to win some free Unity.

See ya tomorrow!
