Unity Stamp Company
There is a new feature to the Weekly Inkling over at Splitcoaststampers. It is the “Product Review” and I have been asked to be a part of the review team! The first review came out today and features the Unity Stamp Company. You can read the Product Review here.
Here are a couple of cards I made using two different sets from the Unity Stamp Company.
The first card is from a gorgeous set called Gratitude=Joy. On the main image I colored the bamboo with Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa and Creamy Caramel markers directly on the rubber. The leaves were colored with Certainly Celery, Old Olive and Always Artichoke.
This second card uses a set called Smiling Paisleys.

Cool cards, Susan!! I read your review in the Inkling! I’ve been a little curious about the Unity blocks. It’s really good to get honest opinions from people you trust! I’m looking forward to more of your reviews!! Thanks for keeping us informed!!!
Chris took one look at your card and said “JEEPERS! WOW, That’s pretty! Very Clean & Refreshing” I think I should leave all the blog comments up to him - he definately knows when he sees something beautiful! Go figure a big fire fighter knows his stamps! I have to say I agree…These are stunning! Thank you so much for a beautiful job!
Susan, I have never used these stamps, but your cards are the bomb…especially the first one.

Oh wow Susan, Congrats! I love the cards you created. The clean look of the first one with the Asian feel is wonderful!! Your second card is fabulous too. I love how you cut the words! I’m off to check out their stuff! Thanks for the inspiration!
These are both fabulous!!!! I really, really love the top card!
Both cards are fab but I really I *love* the bamboo card!!!
Susan, I love the first card. I’m going to have to check out those stamps. The bamboo is perfect!
Both cards are beautiful and I was unaware of the Unity stamps until I read the reviews. Sounds like they may be around for a while. Love the colors you chose and the stamps are quite unique! TFS
Gorgeous cards! The first one almost looks like the bamboo is cut out — your shading is so wonderful!
Your cards are beautiful, and the stamps look fantastic! How fun that you were part of the review team!
Susan, your samples are gorgeous…and your review is fabulous!! You rock, girl!!
OOOH these are BOTH awesome cards!! LOVE the stamps, colors, LOVE what you’ve done!!
I’ve got a touch of the depression this morning - so I had to come and see what you’ve been up - your cards always make me smile - there is just no end to your creativity….the mister and I are going “shopping” today - which means whereever we go I’ll have 5 minutes to make a decision and get out the door - not something I’m capable of doing but I’m always up for a challenge. Did you make it to the open house? Did you eat a cupcake? Did you love it? Loved the Christmas cards - especially since it still feels like WINTER here! Nan
Susan that is such a beautiful card - the images are lovely and you have such a nice design for this to really keep the focus on the stamps. TFS!
wonderful cards love them all
Nicely done cards — love them both — but the top is my FAV — love the overall feel of it!!! TFS!!! How fun to be doing reviews!!!
