Growing in Unity Day 2

Hi Everyone and Welcome back!

It is Day 2 of my Growing in Unity week. Remember, a comment on this post is a chance at winning 25 stamps from Unity Stamps!  Comment on each of my Growing in Unity posts this week and that is 5 chances to win!
Today I have a super CAS card for you, yet still elegant, I think.


I started with the flower stamp from the Always Been You KOTM and my MISTI.  I stamped the image in the bottom left hand corner, then in the upper right hand corner.  I masked the upper flower and then stamped the second flower in the upper right corner.  Using the flower mask, I sponged some Distress ink on the background.  I added depth to the flowers with gray Copics.
I wanted the flowers to be the main event, so heat embossed the sentiment, which is from Love is a Magical Thing sentiment kit on vellum.  My favorite sequins finish it off (you will be seeing these sequins often, lol).
Let me know what you think!

I am linking up to The Flower Challenge- 'Case a Designer'.  I have cased TaeEun's stunning card.  

Thanks for stopping by!

Lee Ann :)
