It's Thursday, and that means the girls from Unity have some eye candy in store for you today! Speaking of candy, I pulled this adorable 'penny candy' stamp out of my stack of 'desperately needing attention' stamps. I've always loved this image, but had yet to ink it up! The sentiment is from another older KOM set... & they seem to make a perfect pair! I love how the kits all work so well with each other!
Here's a close up of my candy jars in all their shiny glory. (They were coated in a layer of Glossy Accents)
I've been recovering from the flu & I meant to post these earlier this week... but here are a couple of cards I made using this month's kit, called Fly Free:
