***I have TWO POSTS today, and I would SO appreciate if you scroll down to see my GREETING FARM post and also some pics of my adorable sister :) Thank you so much!***
Definitely a day to cherish family here on the ol' blog, although EVERY day should be good for that! So you all might remember the other day I posted the BEAUTIFUL PICTURE that my 9 year old DD drew me. You can see that picture HERE.
I was so touched by her beautiful sentiment and the AMAZING soul that she has at only 9 years old that I wanted to make her a card to tell her how much she means to me! I have to say though I'm setting quite the precedent here-my kids are all getting to the point that if I go too long w/out sticking a card in their lunchbox they think something is up, LOL! But a beautiful drawing that i will hang onto FOREVER definitely deserves a little recognition, don't you think?
I was SO BUMMED when I went to grab my "Sunshine and Lollipops" 6x6 pad from Sassafrass Lass and to my dismay, the paper w/ the rainbows on it were ALL used up! BUT ALAS! There was the COVER of the paper pad!!! Yep, I went there! I tore that cover RIGHT OFF and even cut out the words "Sunshine" and "Lollipop" to make her a card that totally fit her BEAUTIFUL drawing! YAY!
So here's what I came up with, using this beautiful sentiment from the UNITY FEBRUARY Kit of the Month:
I LOVE that saying! That is what I want for all of my kids, and you guys all know that's why I adore Angela the artists at Unity-the stamps are whimsical, and the sentiments are SO poignant to me and I love being able to express myself through their stamps. LOVE ME SOME UNITY!
I also used the new "Stitched Greetings" set available at UNITY RETAILERS! You can click on the home page for a list of stores that carry Unity!
Are you guys signed up yet for the Kit of the Month Club? You can find all the info about that HERE. And stay tuned...I have another Unity-related announcement coming next week that I can't WAIT to share with you! For now, be sure to check out the UNITY BLOG-it's had a makeover and it's FABULOUS, I must say! Check out what Ang has going on for you today and be sure to visit my beautiful teamies, too:
