For this card I used Unity's Gratitude=Joy set, along with a SU sentiment and paper.
So, if you would like to win this set all you have to do is leave me a comment here on this post by 3:45 pm PST...that gives everyone a good half hour to get a comment in and I will randomly draw a winner from all of the comments on this post and announce it in the EtsyInspired PCP Group forum at 3:50pm PST today. Good luck ladies!
For this card I used buttons as my circle embellishments and some fabulous Unity stamps!
For this sweet, pink card Ashley used rhinestones as her circle only embellishment.
Shannon used circle punches to embellish her card.
This is Lindsay's card using buttons...I love her circle paper and paper piercing too.
First, I stamped my Unity Distressed Dots background stamp in white. Then I used some more traditional scrapbooking stamps from the Amazing Me set to create the flower (the stem is actually part of a journal box stamp and the polka dot leaves are a parenthesis stamp). To finish off the circle madness going on in this card I added a few brads. I also created this card for Lindsay's cardstock only challenge.
In order to be eligible to win this prize you need to:
Don't you just love this pretty pink Love Notes paper by MM?! I used one of my newest Unity sets, Something Within, for this card. Just a quick post for now...my challenge post at 3pm is quite long so I will make up for this short post then. :)
HERE is the adorable little dress that I was inspired by. When I first got my Basic Grey Offbeat paper pad I wasn't sure I would ever use this bright yellow paper but once I saw that cute little girl dress I knew I had found the perfect inspiration!
It's a little hard to tell in the picture but the baby circle is popped up on a dimensional and is on top of an acetate scalloped circle that I punched out. I have been playing around with acetate a little this week and I like what it adds to a card but it doesn't show up very well in pictures. I posted my other Unity challenge card yesterday if you want to check it out in the post below this. Also, make sure to stop by Angela's blog to see the Unity specials and a list of all the other great ladies showcasing Unity on their blogs today.
Well, that is it for me today...I have some boys that need my attention now but I will be back tomorrow with another card. And don't forget to stop by Saturday for the EtsyInspired Blog Hop!
You can click on the card if you want to see a larger image and get a closer look at the details.
Thanks for stopping by! I am going to go play some more with my new paper and my new Unity stamps that arrived this afternoon! Hopefully I will have another card to share tomorrow! :)
My card was inspired by these adorable flower cookies. I just love the pretty spring colors and the little white detailing. So, I grabbed my Paper Salon oh sew fun flower stamps and pastel colors and came up with this card...
For more inspiration make sure to visit the rest of the EtsyInspired Design Team (links to their blogs are in my right sidebar). Then go check out Angel Food's Etsy shop to find your own inspiration! And for those of you who may be new to the EtsyInspired Challenges, here are a few extra details you need to know...

I used the branches from one of Unity's Giggle Grove trees and a sentiment from the Simply Said set. I don't have much to say today...guess I am keeping it pretty simple with my post too. :) But make sure to check out Angela's blog for the list of all the other fabulous ladies posting Unity on their blogs today and stop by the Unity forum...I am sure you will find some of us chatting the day away! :)
I thought this would be a nice card to give to a girlfriend in celebration of some special occasion like an engagement, pregnancy, new job, etc. The sentiment is from Verve's Starlight Starbright set.
I had to use up more of my Basic Grey Bittersweet papers...love them! I lightly sponged some pretty in pink ink over my embossed panel and there is very fine glitter covering the love die cut. I found this pretty sheer and scalloped ribbon at Michaels (Offray brand).
She has lots of wonderful handmade jewelry. My card was inspired by these pretty earrings from her sold section. She actually titled them Sweet Pea and when I first saw them my mind was already screaming 'Baby Card.'
I thought this pocket card would be great for tucking a little gift card into...new parents can always use a gift card to Target or Babies R Us, right?! For the pocket I just took a 4x11 piece of cardstock, scored it, folded it in half, covered it with pp and then used eyelets on the edges to keep it closed.
The tag is from K&Company's Baby Boy Tag Pad and the sentiment is actually from a pack of Baby Vellum phrases that I got at Joann's. I just trimmed it to fit right into the journal lines on the tag. For the tag sentiment and the sweet pea circle (since it is also vellum) I used Glue Dots Vellum adhesive. This stuff is fabulous for vellum...does not show through at all! To finish it all off I used a piece of twill (that I recycled from a Pottery Barn kids package) and tied it through the tag into a big bow.
I just love Stampin' Up's Naturals Ivory cardstock...such a great neutral and thicker than their white cs. For this card I paired it with SU's sage shadow (I absolutely love this color!) and a few of Taylor's Tiny Twinkles. Super simple!
I'm not sure if Unity still carries this stamp. I received it for free in my last order and I really like it...I think it makes a great border! As many of you know, Angela is always so generous in her hip hop specials and I believe they are good through today so go check out her blog for the details! I ordered 3 new sets and I am going to get a few random stamps thrown in for free too!
I just love SU's wild wasabi, especially paired with a dark brown. This card came together very quickly...I just stamped the dream tree image and sentiment in dark brown, tied the ribbon around the bottom of the card, and added some green rhinestones to the tree. I also used decorative scissors to create the scalloped edge at the bottom of the card.
I am keeping these pages fairly simple since I am putting them in a photo album which does not allow for a lot of embellishments. Also, I figure that what is most important is what I am gaining from this process, studying God's word, and having an album that I can look at regularly and share with my children for years to come.
The sketch called for 3 little embellishments in the bottom right hand corner...mine are a little hard to see in the picture but there are 3 tiny pink rhinestones.
CONGRATULATIONS to the 3 other new DT members: Shannon, Jackie, and Heather! I am looking forward to getting to know everyone (many of the current DT are continuing on too, Yeah!) and Ashley has some fun things up her sleeve so make sure to pop in every Saturday to see what is happening! :)
