Growing in Unity Day 2: Happiness


Welcome to day two of my Growing in Unity week at Unity Stamp Company!
Come by every day this week and leave me a comment and guess what?!?!?!

At the end of the week I will randomly pick a winner and Unity will give you your choice of 

I know I have a hard time working with muted color palettes so this card was a bit of a challenge for me but I pushed on and am pleasantly surprised by it.
I used the Unity
Direction of Happy stamp set for the sentiment on this card. 


I added some lace and some Studio Calico Shine to give this card a little more oomph.
The paper is Basic Grey.

Hope you're day is filled with happiness.
