Growing In Unity

Day 3 - August 22, 2018

Hello All!. I can't believe that half of my week as a 

Growing In Unity Girl is over all ready. 

I hope that you have been enjoying what I have made using 

Unity Stamp Company stamps, and that maybe I

have inspired your creativity.

I was inspired to start a "Quotes Journal" recently.

I LOVE quotes and sayings, and after hearing about doing one 

I thought it would be perfect for me.

I love doing cards, etc using stamps because it allows me 

to show my own unique perspective. 

We could have the same stamp set,

and create all totally different things.

I absolutely LOVE Sunflowers.

 I loved them before I went to South Dakota back in 2015 

but after I went there I found a place in my heart 

that makes me smile seeing them. 

For my first two pages in my Quotes Journal I chose to

use Sunflowers from Unity.

Here is my two pages:

I really enjoyed doing these two pages.

For the background I decided to use my 

Tim Holtz Distress Crayons.

I was trying to make a sorta of plaid pattern using them.

I know its not perfect, but it is "colorful" - smiling.

For this page of my journal I used several Unity Stamp Kits.

I LOVE Angie Girls, and of course Rebecca Girl 

just had to be used. I stamped her with Sunflower in Staz On ink 

and colored her with my Distress Crayons and a few

Zig Colored Markers.

I decided to use the "Vintage Ledger" stamp and

distress the edges using "Vintage Photo".

I found a saying on the internet so I wrote it on the ledger.

Remember: Don't be afraid to use your own handwriting

for journaling. It makes it more personal that way.

For the caption on the top of the page I used 

one of Unity's MANY Itty Bitty stamps.

PLEASE don't let the Itty Bitty name fool you!.

You can do so much with these stamps.

I used the sentiment from "Struggle & Strength", as 

I believe this is a true statement indeed.

--------------------------------

I also used a second Sunflower Itty Bitty stamp

from Unity called "Turn Toward the Light".

Sunflowers indeed turn toward the light...

I smile whenever I see that saying.

The Sunflower image I took from a Sunflower that was

in the July 2017 - Kit Of The Month I saw that I loved. 

We all need to "Believe". Believe things will get better,

Believe that we deserve to be happy...

Believe we have worth and deserve to be loved.

I used the Vintage Postcard stamp for this page of my 

Quotes Journal. I used Distress Ink on the edges and a little

on the top of the Post card to make it look worn.

I found a Helen Keller quote I loved so it's now a "keeper".

I had so much fun starting this Quotes Journal

and look forward to adding more.

If you have a favorite quote for inspiration maybe you

can share it with me. 

I deal with anxiety attacks, and love Sunflowers,  &Tulips.

Maybe your favorite quote will end up in my journal - smiling.

Have a great day and Happy Stamping!!.

Come back tomorrow and leave a comment,

or if you missed a previous day its not to late to go and comment.

Remember I will be picking two people who comment

to win a Unity Stamp Company Grab Bag of 25 stamps!!.

After all....who can NEVER have ENOUGH Unity (smiling).
