I can't believe the week is already over! I've had *so* much fun sharing my {love} of Unity with you all, and you'll all made my week with the sweet comments that you've left. Thank {{YOU}} so much!I will be back tomorrow with a post in the Unity World Record Blog Hop (see the blinkie to the right)...have you signed up yet? There's still time! *wink*
Today's card is actually one I made quickly yesterday morning for one of the Hip Hop Thursday challenges...'No Sour Grapes at Unity!'. The challenge was to make a card using black, white, and purple, and this is what I came up with:
I have to say, I *really* like how it turned out! *grins*I pulled out my new 'Feel the Joy' image, the sentiment from the March KOTM, some scraps of Pale Plum, Perfect Plum, Basic Black, and Whisper White, and my new PaperTrey Palette inks, and got to work. I stamped the image three times using Lavender Moon ink, then twice more using Plum Pudding ink onto the Whisper White scrap. I trimmed it down, and then trimmed the Perfect Plum scrap and the Basic Black scraps to mat it, tearing the bottom edge of the black scrap. I tied a piece of Plum Pudding satin ribbon around the card (cutting a slit in the folded edge, since I didn't really plan this card!), and then mounted the matted image on top with foam mounting tape. I stamped the sentiment at the bottom, and accented the card with some Heidi Swapp Bling. Yet another card that took less than 10 minutes! Love that!
And now, the winner of a single of their choice from Unity:
True Random Number Generator 72

Thank you so much!!
It's been a fun week for me too! Feel the love. :-)
Michelle you were great this week!! Gorgeous card!!
Wow -you do beautiful work! I have always thought stamping would be fun - just never got into it.
Your blog is such a great one - full of ideas.
I would love to offer you a free blog design if you would ever want one. It's not that you NEED it - yours looks very nice but if you even want it personalized - I'd love to do that for you - I see you do giveaways/freebies on your blog and I'd love to give one to you!
Great week Michelle! This one did come out great!! Nice job.
I've really enjoyed your week! I love the beautiful cards you've made.
Just gorgeous! Check you out with the purple....again!
what a great week I missed! Just looked this morning at all your lovely creations for the week and they are all just so cool. I missed stamping the last few weeks, but with my new studio, I can jump right in. arriving home tomorrow...
Who knew purple and black could go so well together -- great job!
