GIU Day 2

Hello.  Welcome.  I am so happy to be Growing In Unity this week.  I am sharing a project every day showcasing Unity Stamps.  If you leave a comment you have a chance to win a Unity grab bag of 25 stamps.  Today I have made a card using the Joseph's Coat Technique.  



I started with a piece of red card.  I stamped the hexagons from Bee Happy Hexagons and the cycle from Love Life with Versamark ink and clear embossed.  Then I covered it all with black ink.  I wiped the embossed areas with a tissue but then decided to iron off the embossing to make the details really sharp and the colours brighter.  



I stamped And Then There Was a Boy and the dog from The Boo Crew and fussy cut them.  I attached the panel to a red base card, added the boy and his dog and added the sentiment 'thinking of you'.



Thanks for dropping by.  Don't forget to leave a comment for a chance to win a Unity grab bag.  I'll be back tomorrow with another project.  Hugz
