Welcome to Hip-Hop Thursday!
Today is the first official hip-hop day for Unity Stamp Co...what does that mean? Lots of fun, inspiration, prizes, and some bargains thrown into the mix too!
The "hop" part starts over on the Unity blog {everyone should be all linked up by 10:00 am CST} so if you haven't done so, start there (I don't want you to miss anything!) and then follow the links for lots of fun and inspiration!!
And now for my bit of inspiration. DH got home from Iraq the day after our 16th anniversary, but even though he spent most of that week at various bases trying to get home, he STILL managed to get a card to me by our anniversary. Not only was that part awesome, but the card is an incredible inspiration piece and that is what I have created from for my project today. First here is the card that he sent...
And here is what I have created based upon this fun tri-fold design using the Unity stamp kit, Tiny Trinity.
And this is what it looks like when it is all opened up...
Isn't that fun? I colored the trees using colored pencils and just various shading based upon the colors in that K&Company paper.
The finished card measures about 4x8 and I just played with the curves and angles on this until I liked the look. I will definitely be using this basic design again as I think that it is so much fun!
Now "hop" on over to Jennifer's blog and see what she and all the other talented gals from Unity have been creating. Have fun and be inspired! It's going to be such a fun day!!!
