A Pocket Full of....

Hip Hop! Are you ready to see Unity's NEWEST Kit of the Month?!? July's kit is called "A Pocket Full of"... and it's packed FULL of THE cutest images! As always, today's blog hop starts with the Unity Blog. Make sure to check in there to see all of today's specials and goodies! And... since it's a new month, we have new friends with us! Please welcome July's Guest Designers -- Lisa & Shemaine! :)

I love how versatile this kit is! Once again, I used Claudine Hellmuth's Sticky Back Canvas for my main image. I think it gives the 'denim' pocket an authentic texture. The denim tag at the top is the real deal (part of my son's worn out jeans). The paper is by October Afternoon & the felt heart is by Chatterbox.

And... since the 4th of July is right around the corner, I wanted to share a few patriotic cards that I made using Unity's "Unity in America" set. (This set can only be purchased right now through Memory Making Crafts.) I really love the Americana images in the set!

I paired one of the sentiments from the set with some gorgeous Webster's Pages paper below.

And... here is another one using the same paper line. I wanted to make the pitcher look like yellow ware & added a crackle finish. (You can always see a close-up by clicking on the picture.)

And... here is another one of the images paired with some Jillibean Soup paper & Sassafras chipboard.


Your next stop on the blog hop is our fearless leader....
