Growing in Unity Day 2 and Shaping Up! Winner

Hi! I'm back for Day 2 of my Growing in Unity week.

Before I get to my card, I need to announce the winner of my Shaping Up Blog Hop prize. Using Random.org, the winner is: Barb:


this is the perfect fun shaped card! love it!!! thank you for the chance to win...you are so generous! July 23, 2012 6:47 PM


Barb, please see the contact me at the top of the page and send me an e-mail with your address. Thanks!

Now for the GIU card. I mixed two sets together to get a more funky card:



For the card, I used Melody Ross's A Girl and Her Adventures and the sentiment is from the November 2010 KOTM. Here's a close-up of the cute camera stamp:



I struggled so much with photographing this card...for some reason the camera didn't like it (although it's probably the end-user-- ha ha).

As part of GIU, Unity sponsors a giveaway. One lucky person will win two Itty Bittys of his/her choice! To enter to win, leave a comment on this post. Each day, you can leave another comment on my GIU posts for additional chances to win. All comments must be received by 9:00 AM CST on Saturday, and I'll be randomly drawing a name on Saturday.

Thanks for looking! I'll be back again tomorrow for my feature day.

    I love all the layering & texture with the different patterns & colours!
    And, my sister introduced me to PEBCAC - problem exists between chair & computer. I suppose it could be adapted to camera? lol. I tease only because I love (and because every time something doesn't work for me, my hubby shouts 'user error'!)
