Hello, everybody! Today is my fifth and final day as a "Growing in Unity Girl!" What a fun week I've had! Each day, I have been sharing a card made with my Unity Stamp Co. stamps. If you missed any, they are here: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, and Day 4. Now I present today's card:
I've had this adorable Unity Stamp - Warm Winter Comforts set for several years and it's a favourite! I've made cards with this stamp in the past (see here and here), but it's been a while, so I couldn't end my week without pulling out this little cutie! Plus, now I have another winter holiday card made ahead of time!
I coloured the image with markers and die-cut with a pierced square. I cut the same size square in a coordinating colour for layering and embossed it with a snowflake pattern. My background was made a while ago but I'm guessing I used Distress Inks, perhaps Abandoned Coral, Tumbled Glass, and Shaded Lilac and the ink-smooshing technique. I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set and embossed the inky panel with a snowflake pattern. Lastly, I adhered three red snowflake sequins.
Would you like to win a $20 gift credit to Unity Stamp Co.? Make sure you've commented on all five of my Growing in Unity posts this week to be included in the giveaway! Deadline for comments is 5PM EDT, Sunday, March 20. There will be two lucky winners!
I would also like to join the following 5 challenges:

I love the colors on this one! Very non-traditional but super fun! Sorry I haven't been around lately. Tom's Dad had medical problems at the beginning of the year and we've been running back and forth to Cincinnati helping with him. We can't leave him alone and only 3 of Tom's 6 siblings are helping. So it's been a lot of travel time and about 10 days at a time spent with him. Then we are building a new house too. We are about to sign the contract and get it underway. So when we are home we've been busy cleaning up the site and getting ready for working on that. So not much crating being done around here. Congrats on being a Unity girl. I'll go back and see all your other great cards!
