Hi everyone! I finally got to sit down and stamp!! Woohoo! We were on vacation last week (had my Verve posts scheduled) in GORGEOUS Lake Tahoe and since we got back I have had a serious problem getting my own time to create! It's always crazy in the summer with my girls home. The computer is on my desk in my craft area so if one of them is on, I can't stamp....which seems to be all the time lately! Anywho...we had a great vacation with beautiful weather and some great family time but it is always good to be home!
About a week before I left for vacation I received the Unity Stamps June Kit of the Month. I had been eyeing the Kit of the Month club for awhile and finally took the plunge and signed up. If you haven't ever tried Unity's stamps, YOU MUST! The are deeply etched red rubber that stamp BEAUTIFULLY! Anywho...I will get off my enabling pedestal and get on to the real reason you are here....
I decided to enter the Unity Guest Designer Challenge going on right now in the Unity Forum. Both of my cards use the sketch designed for the challenge.
I love the cherry stamp from this kit and the sentiment is perfect! The cherries are stamped on PTI White, cut out and popped up on dimensionals.
I took a little more liberty with the sketch on this card. The ice cream cone in this kit is awesome and isn't the sentiment so cute?
Well, thanks for stopping by! I hope you have a GREAT day!

What sweet cards! That ice cream cone is just awesome, I love it!! I just happened across your blog today and we live near Lake Tahoe! Isn't is beautiful, and the water is always a bit chilly from the depth and snow melt, wonderful on a hot, hot, Northern Nevada day!!
