Sending Blessings - Growing In Unity Day 5

Happy Friday!!  I can't believe how fast this week has gone.  It's my last day of hosting the Growing In Unity week.  Today, I am delighted to share another set from my favourite Unity line - i.e. stamps by Phyllis Harris!  I absolutely LOVE all of Phyllis' stamps!!  I wish I can draw like her :-)

Picture of Every Breath

The set I used is called Every Breath and I can't find the right words to describe what I love about her.  Perhaps the card speaks it better than I can. 

I made this card for my friend's daughter who needs a birthday card for her friend.  Her friend's favourite colour is purple, and so I gave this girl a purple dress.  She was coloured with Copic Markers (Dress - V12, V15, V17, Colourless blender; Hair - Y38, YR24, Y21; Skin - E50, E01, E13, R20; Ground - E41, E43).  The edges were sponged with Memento Summer Sky. 

The card is cut with Spellbinders Romantic Rectangles and the patterned paper is from American Crafts, Amy Tangerine line.

What a week it's been sharing my Unity creations with you.  I've had a blast!  Be sure to leave your comment for a chance to win two Itty Bittys of your choice.  I'll announce the winner on Sunday evening.

Thank you for visiting and for your kind words.  I am so blessed!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs
Kary

This card is unbelievable!! It's SO beautiful and I love the image. Your coloring technique is just amazing and one of these days I'll have to get some Copics and try them out. I know I'll never get the effect that you do though.
