Growing in Unity Day 4



Happy Thursday, everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful day. Today's cards are a necessity that I should make and have more of on hand. Unfortunately, we all need sympathy cards from time to time. I am a high school teacher and one of our senior students passed away in a car accident early yesterday morning. I have made some cards with toner fronts (I know, I know....I love them.) and various foil colors. I used the stamp set: ...abundant blessings (Unity sentiment kit September 2017) for the With Sympathy sentiment and the set:  ...basically said (Unity sentiment kit June 2014) for the Thinking of You sentiment. I know several people in this student's family, so will be sending these cards out this week.








I learned some new toner/foil techniques today after watching Gaylynn's video and reading her post on the Unity Blog. Don't throw away the foil after you use them on the toner front, you can use them again on black toner paper to get a negative and then foil again on the black areas left on the negative. There are so many possiblities and I am having a lot of fun experimenting. I will share the creations tomorrow. Comment below for a chance to win a Unity gift certificate. Have a great day, everyone, and give your loved ones an extra hug.
