I am happy knowing my son, the nurse, is out there helping people. He works in the Covid unit.
Gorgeous coloring on these remarkable Unity images!!

The coloring is exceptional. Beautiful cards with beautiful sentiment.

Very special cards of caring! Beautiful, thank you for sharing!
Making and writing cards and getting lots of exercise brightens my days in these tough times!
Great color and anyone would love to receive these
Love your coloring.
Realistic cards, to the point sentiments.
Two lovely cards. Your coloring is amazing!
Such nice cards! Love those images, too. One thing that makes me smile during this lockdown is my cat and his antics. He's just a crazy guy, and his brother is more of the same. lol
Absolutely amazing coloring! The nurses are just incredible!
Great cards 😊
Great cards! Love the brick wall behind the nurses!

Gorgeous cards! perfect for this hop! Thank you to all who have come together!
Your cards are amazing. Love your coloring and the healthcare workers image is wonderful for these times. TFS
What brightens my day is knowing that despite these trying times, Mother Nature is still doing what she does, and changing the seasons! Your cards are perfect for the times! :)
Wow! Your coloring is so inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Great cards, especially for these times. I'm really enjoying all the "lives" that crafters are doing and am sometimes able to craft along with them. It's really a great way to escape and distract me from worrying. Thanks so much for your inspiration.
Thank you for joining in on the blog hop, and for sharing the joy with all of us!
Great cards. Thanks for sharing.
So wonderful to see you blogging again Kary - I have missed it. Loving how you have coloured these amazing images! You have really made a superb job of both cards.
What brings me joy in this time of lock down - having my daughter in law ride or walk past my place, and being able to see two of my grandies, albeit at the required 2 metres distance!
Stay safe
Blessings

Great cards with meaningful sentiments. You did a treat job. Thank you for sharing.
wowza beautiful coloring of the clothing!
Wow love your copic coloring.. This is fantastic and so so beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Such great cards. What brightens my day is blog hops and card making!
These are awesome!
Wow your comic coloring is out of this world. I truly love your cards and they are so fabulous in the message they will send. Great work. Thanks for helping to spread the joy.
Love the sentiment "faith over fear"! Your cards are beautiful! Great job on the coloring as well.
Great cards, beautifully coloured.. .....Thanks for sharing x
You really made the most of these digi stamps, bringng the images to life. I never have luck coloring digital stamps, probably because my inkjet ink isn't permanent enough, but they do have a lot of designs available.
Wow! Those images are just perfect for all the caregivers!! And you do a beautiful job coloring them! Actually the one thing that brightens my day during this period is the sunshine lol!! It's been kind of cold and rainy and dreary here in Kentucky recently. It always lifts me up to see the sunshine even when it's cold. That and knowing all of my family are safe from this virus so far!
Love your beautiful cards. They are perfect.
your cards are amazing - love these images
My day is always brightened when I walk into my craft room:)
Beautiful cards, your coloring is awesome. My dog brightens my day by being silly chasing his tail in a circle or stealing clothes out of a laundry basket. He makes it hard to be serious for long.
THANK YOU for the faith over fear. The hysteria of others is driving me nuts.
Both cards are lovely, but I especially like the second one - great design!
I'm crazy in love with Unity Stamp Co. Stamps...!
What brightens my day is to know that God will always be with us.
Your cards are beautiful and so appropriate. The subtle colouring is lovely and the first card with the girl and the sentiment is sublime. xx
Gorgeous cards! Your coloring is so pretty. They're so dramatic and soft at the same time.
Gorgeous coloring and beautiful cards!!
Love the hop.
Love your cards!! Love the stamps!! Great designs!!
Wonderful cards. Perfect for first responders!
Love your cards!!! Especially the healthcare workers one<3<3<3 Stay healthy! Stay safe! Keep crafting!
Beautifully done!
Beautiful cards. I Love how you have the images colored. Thanks for sharing joy with your project for the Spread Joy Not Germs Bloghop. Blessings.
What brightens my day is when I get to talk to my loved ones near and far and know they are all healthy for one more day!
Your cards are very nice. I've never tried a digi stamp, but I think I will!
Beautiful cards. I love the colors you used. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe.
music, I have a friend that gives a morning concert, mostly piano, sometimes guitar or kazoo. every morning, so music brings me joy. Crafting, including craft alongs over the internet with my grand daughter.
Your colouring is stunning! I continue to make cards everyday as it lets me escape into my own little world. Creating makes me happy as there is always joy in seeing your finished projects and knowing that you are making something to eventually give to someone to make them happy too! Thanks for spreading some joy today and being part of this amazing hop!
Hi Kary, your cards are stunning and soulful! Your incredible coloring brings out so much personality to the images! Your second card really speaks to me as I am a nurse and this card is super thoughtful! Thanks for the inspiration!
Great cards. Thank you for the inspiration :D
Huge hugs
Amy xx
Great cards that are perfect for spreading joy!
Your coloring is absolutely exquisite! Love these images too.
excellent coloring - powerful digi images
What gorgeous coloring. Sure to bring JOY to the recipient. My brightest part of my day is face timing with my grands....they make me smile no matter what mood I was in.
Fantastic cards Kary! I love those images... especially the nurses/doctors... so perfect and precious! Great coloring! Thanks for the inspiration. God bless!
Love Unity Stamp Co!
Both cards are perfect! Thank you for sharing! Things that bring me joy right now are sunshine and walks with my family!
Glad there are sentiment stamps out there for thanking medical workers. God bless them.
Such beautiful coloring thanks for sharing
Very pretty
Beautiful cards! When I’m not working, I like to create and send cards to help brighten someone’s day.
I love those digi stamps - your cards are fantastic!
Love the faith over fear sentiment. The sounds of the birds chirping, green grass brings, and vegetable seedlings growing bring me joy
Really pretty cards!!! Thank you for sharing. Seeing things that are being done for others has really been uplifting.
Thanks for the amazing inspiration! These cards are really beautiful!
Oh, wow!!! That first card is GORGEOUS!!! The image is really beautiful, but your fabulous coloring make it come alive!! And the second card is really fabulous as well. We have a 10 month old kitten and he is soooo crazy, and adorable!! His antics always bring a smile to our faces. Also, my husband was laid off, which could seem like a bad thing. BUT, he used to have to drive two hours, each way, to work, so we (my kids and I) didn't see a lot of him. But now we get to see him all the time!
Love the cards you've created but the coloring on the first one is amazing! Since I tend toward solid stamps, this is amazing to me -- wouldn't even attempt it!
The one thing that brings me happiness and joy during this pandemic pandemonium is waking up each morning and counting my blessings. I have time each day to stamp and create, so I can send folded hugs to the important people in my life. My hubs and I are retired, so it isn't much of a change to us, but I know that everyone in my family is safe, healthy, and has enough money to ride this through while they work at home. I am truly blessed!
Your coloring just makes the cards extremely beautiful! Great job & thanks for sharing your cards with us.
What brightens my day during this period of lockdown is to just give someone a phone call to just say hello.
What wonderful and fitting cards...love the images on both.
You truly made some beautiful cards using Unity Stamp Company digi's.
I love the digi A Work of Heart. Such a great image with all is going on and throughout the year. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. Stay safe.
Having my own craft space to go to after working brightens my day. The shading and coloring you have in your cards is awesome.
Beautiful coloring on these pretty images!
Sitting here with my kitty on my lap brightens my day. This is our routine every evening, and she lets me know when she's ready to settle in with me!
Your coloring is absolutely gorgeous. Great cards! My favorite Wow embossing powder is Fairy Tale.
Gorgeous creations! So perfect for our current days. Love your Unity creations. Hugs, Wends xoxo
Such lovely cards!Love the coloring on both of them xx
Art is definitely brightening my days lately; thank you for sharing yours! ✨
Awesome creations! Awesome event to spread Joy during these uncertain times! Thanks for the chance to win!
These are wonderful.
Right now I'm enjoying the extra time I get to spend with my family. That's precious to me. xx
These cards are awesome! I love your coloring! <3
Amazing cards!! One thing that brightens my day is the sun. For the first part of our lockdown we have dealt with major snow storms. Causing power outages and it to be so cold. So seeing the sun, the warmer weather and seeing the flowers in bloom have brightened my days up.
Faith without fear is a great way to think everyday. Your healthcare workers on your second card are really cute with their little masks. I am blessed and look forward to video chatting with my family any time I can. Especially my son serving overseas. Thank you for sharing your talent and beautiful cards.
Gorgeous cards. Thanks for sharing
Beautiful cards
Great cards! Love these images!
Fun cards! Love your coloring. Thanks for sharing. XO :)
The Unity Digi Stamps are very nice, but your coloring is exceptional!! I am definitely going to check
Out the Digi Stamps that Unity has. TFS

Besides being with my hubby, being able to craft during this time brings me joy.
Both are gorgeous, but that first one is especially stunning! Love it!
I love your skin tones!
Awesome cards. Since I am still working, I still get contact with the outside world, but driving into work is wonderful. Traffic is nothing and my 45-50 minute commute is down to 25 min. And the weather has been super nice.
Absolutely wonderful cards and beautifully colored :) Hugs...Janie
Nice shares. Good coloring.
The first lady looks so serene and
her coloring is great. The
second card is for some very
important people. thanks for
sharing. txmlhl(at)yahoo(dot)com
DELIGHTFUL cards!
LOVE your images and colouring, such pretty designs too!
Thank You for sharing and INSPIRING!
Your coloring is gorgeous!! Both cards are lovely. Something that brightens my day is baking. It reminds me of my grandma and the smells from her kitchen.
Wonderful cards, beautifully colored. Playing in my craft space brings me joy, and this blog hop is supplying lots of inspiration! Thanks for sharing.
Your cards are incredible in the content, the layout, the colouring & the messages on them. Love them both!
I've never used digi stamps before, but I'm going to have to investigate them & see if my ink jet printer will do them justice. I'd always thought one needed a laser printer. If not, so much the better. What brings me joy is hanging my laundry on the outside line & listening to the bird calls & giving thanks to God for where I live & what the day is going to bring.
Great coloring.
Your choice of images, especially the “ Faith, not fear” one were so apropos to all that this blog is about. You did a spectacular coloring them, as well!
Wonderful cards! I love the new Unity digital stamps and love how you colored and created with them. Thank you for sharing.
Your images and sentiments are stunning!! Love both!! #spreadjoynotgerms
Such wonderful images on your beautiful cards, Kary! Gorgeous colouring!!! Thanks so much for sharing! Say safe!~ :)
Beautiful coloring job. My son is an essential worker. His return home after work from the outside (LOL) brightens my day. Thank you for sharing. Please stay safe.
Great cards. Sending and receiving happy mail brings me joy.
Fabulous cards with such beautiful coloring - awesome!
Wow these are stunning, on point and top of the line. I love these cards.
Your cards are stunning. Love the images and your colouring.
Valerija xx
Love your cards and Unity! Your coloring is amazing I struggle with shading!! One thing that brightens my day is my dogs and cats!!
I like both cards, The colouring of the first one is really so beautiful! Fabulous colours!
I like to walk in my small garden every day and take a few photos to keep a visual journal, That really brightens my day.
Thanks for a lovely hop.
Beautiful coloring. It's nice that some company are making images available that fix what we are going thru right now.
Thank you for participating in this excellent way to encourage stay-at-home! One thing that brightens my lockdown days is my cat Tyson. He's an indoor-only cat, so the stay-at-home order is no big deal for him. 😉 He greets me with love and joy no matter what's going on.
Hi Kary :) Unity has some terrific stamps and your coloring is impeccable!!! Great cards! Thanks for inspiring me :)
The first card is gorgeous! I love the design of the second one. Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow doesn’t even seem like a bitch g enough word, so to the first I’ll say Amen. To the 2nd, thank you, my daughter is an RN so it’s nice to see the medical staff represented like you’ve done. Just gorgeous!!!
Absolutely stunning! The colours and colouring are amazing. Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing!
Oh and something that brightens my day in lockdown is the time I get to spend with my kids. We are getting to do more together, baking, crafting, cleaning and exercising. Precious times!
Your coloring is stunning!
Fantastic coloring, love these!
Wonderful coloring and I like the sentiments.
Beautiful, inspiring cards! Both are wonderful. The first reminds me to have faith and pray! So comforting!
What brightens my day is walking and dancing an hour each in a local school parking lot by myself under the canopy where the bus is used to pick up the kids so it’s nice and cool then I come home and read your blog and get inspired to get my cards done
I am a nurse. Thanks for those great cards!!
Beautiful cards! One thing that brightens my day about "lock down" is family dinners together. And still connecting to friends/family on the internet, seeing so much inspiration and more time to craft. So, I guess more than one thing! Thank Unity for Sponsoring a wonderful hop and thank you for the inspiration!
