So, my last day already, time flies when you have fun!!

For my last day I am using the Say it big sentiment sets!!


 The Say it big Holday set  paired with Sweadda Weadda.
I stamped the sentiment with versamrk and silver embossingpower and masked it.
Then stamped swaedda Weadda background with white embossing powder.
I colord the trees with green Copic markers.


 For this one I used the normal Say it Big set, as background Botanical background, stamped on glossy paper which I colored in 2 tones distress ink.
Stamped it with Versamark and black embossingpowder.
The sentiment is stamped with white embossing ink,and I used the cutfile with stamping, so easy!!


 This background is Obsessed with Floral, so pretty!!
I colored it with Copic markers.
The sentiment is stamped with Distress Oxides also with the cutfile.




And my very last one, that is not a Say it big sentiment.
But as it says Celebrate Big, I thought it would be fun to add it also.
I used Charm as background, in white embossingpowder, stamped on a green card.
Colored it with polychromo pencils.
The background of the sentiment is made with alcohol ink.


Sooo, that was my last day of growing in Unity.
I hope you all enjoyed looking at my cards, andmaybe I gave you some inspiration.
Thank you all for joining me, and thanks to Unity for this opportunity!!

Flowers, I think my favorite stamps to color!!


 You are forever beautiful is one of my favorite flower stamps.
Here I stamped it with Stazon on a cork coaster.
I colored it with acrylic paints and finished it of with a layer of glitter ModPodge.


 Here I colored it with Copic markers and metallic paint.
I also added a layer of glitter ModPodge over the flowers.


And these are colored with aquarel paints.
Added a bit of Nuvo gold Shimmer spray.
The background paper is actually a piece of leftover wall paper!!



 My other favorite flower stamp is Array of fall!
It is so beautiful and very easy to color, all the shades are already drawn!
This one I colored qith aquarel paint.
Added a bit of Distress oxides on the sides of the cardstock.
The sentiment is from a grabbag.


 And this one was even more easy to make!
I just stamped the image with Versamark and black embossingpowder.
Then covered the whole card with 3 colors of Distress Oxides.
And then added a bit  more color to the flowers with a yellow pencil.

Today is a day for butterflies and foiling!!



Allow Yourself is  gorgeous stamp for all  occasions!!
I foiled on black cardstock and used a sentiment from the kit Free your dreams.





Another one, foiled with greenish foil this time.
The sentiment is from a grabbag from Unity.
The grabbagsare awesome, if you get the chance to buy one, do it!!
They don't offer it often, so if I get the chance.....



This card is made with the leftover foil from the previous card, Idon't like to waste that pretty foil!!
I did not have the toner sheets yet, so I sprayed a piece of cardstock with gluespray, put the foil on it and run through my laminator!
Somehow the foil crackled a bit, but I love the look of it!!


That was it for today, come an join me tomorrow for day 3!!
