Growing in Unity Tuesday: Photo Frame

Happy Tuesday, and welcome to my second day of Growing in Unity. in contrast to yesterday's busy card, today I have a super-simple one:



While it's certainly not showing off any mad stamping skilz, it highlights how perfect this image is for framing a photo, particularly anything beach-related. And FYI, it's so not me in that picture! While the book may be accurate, it's really just a random Bahamian beach shot. Later I can slip the photo out of the right side (which I left open) and put a more personal one in. 
Leaving a comment on this or any post this week gives you a chance to win two itty bitty stamps from Unity. I'm back tomorrow with not just one, but three cards to show you! 



Supplies: Stampin' Up naturals white cardstock, Unity/Iron Orchid Designs Beach Cottage Collection stamp, Stampin' Up crumb cake craft ink, clear embossing powder

Pin It Now!
