Day Two of Growing in Unity

Hello Again!

Today is my Growing in Unity Day 2 and  I have a fairly simply mixed media card to share with you using one of my favorite masculine Unity Stamp Co. stamps, Slowly Turning Classic by Tierra Jackson.  Don't forget to comment for your chance to win!


The image was stamped on patterned paper and colored with Copics.  I framed it with a Polaroid die cut and distressed the die cut a bit to make it look aged.  I could not settle on a backdrop for the image, so I got out my Gel Press and acrylic paints to make some masculine backgrounds.
I really love how the backgrounds turned out and this one, with the bit of blue peeking through, seemed perfect for my focal image.
Don't forget to comment for your chance to win 25 stamps from Unity Stamp Co.!  Comment all 5 days for 5 chances to win!  If you missed yesterday's post, go HERE

  25. This is one of my many favorite stamps I love how it looks, wonder if I could stamp and color with watercolor pencils as that is all I use. I will have to try it as it will only be one picture that might not work.
