Growing In Unity Day Two - Risk Everything

Happy Tuesday!!!  It's my second day as one of the Growing In Unity girls this week, and I'm really excited to have a sort of mixed media piece to share with you.  I absolutely love Unity Stamps, and they compliment a mixed media look so well.  I made the background papers with Color Burst and watercolors and Distress Inks first, then chose the part I wanted to use for my image when they were dry.  I absolutely love this kit, Follow Your Dreams.  It's part of their Layers of Life subscription program, which I am seriously considering joining!



I also put a sentiment inside, which I don't often do, but the colors on the front and the size of the image didn't really leave me any space to add the sentiment there.

It reads: Sometimes life is about risking everything for a dream no one can see but you


BE SURE to comment on my blog posts every day this week!  Two lucky winners will receive 25 amazing Unity stamps!  How awesome is that?!?!  If you missed my previous posts, here's an easy link to yesterday's post!

Just a few quick challenges to enter:


Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting.  Good luck in the draw!!  Laters!!!
