Growing in Unity -- Day 1

Hello everyone!  I am so excited to be a Growing In Unity Gal again this week. I will be posting on my blog a new card every day this week.  I will be picking two people from all the comments this week to win 25 random stamps from Unity.  

For my first day today, I used the June 2016 Sentiment Kit -- Succulent Salutations. I'm pretty sure I bought this when it came out and this is the first time I am using it ;)


This set has 14 sentiments and 4 images. I really feel that the sentiment kits are a great purchase! I colored the image with my Zig Clean Color Markers. I used the markers as is and also as a watercolor. 


I thought I could use this as a birthday card. It seems I always need those, but don't always make them. This year I hope to do better.

Be sure to leave a comment today and every day this week for your chance to win! 

Have a great day!
Helen
