Growing In Unity Day 1: Happiness Has No Limit

Good Morning my crafty friends!  I am delighted to be posting this week some great cards I have made using Unity Stamp Company stamps as I am this weeks Growing in Unity Gal!  
I have some fun cards to share.  I do apologize as my craft room is currently in a haphazard state some of my lighting is a bit dark!  Sorry friends!  But I am delighted to share this set of cards with you today.  I am always on the look out for note cards to send to say Hi or Thanks or just because so decided on a universal sentiment and no sentiment at all!  Please feel free to leave me some bloggy love as at the end of my Growing in Unity Week I will be drawing names for 2 winners to be selected for some awesome Unity Stamp goodies!!!  So please feel free to leave a comment!  I am definitely curious... do you prefer to have sentiments on your cards or do you leave them blank?  Let me know!

I love your pretty card. I often leave sentiments off cards with the intention of adding one depending on the occasion. I also love a card with just an image too. I can't wait to see your cards this week!

Kathy H said...

I mostly put a sentiment on all my cards, but I make them as needed. Congrats on you Unity GIU week!

Great start! I "finish" my cards so when I need one, I know exactly which card to send. But it is also a good excuse to make another one!!

Chix said...

Beautiful cards I like sentiments on the outside and leaving the inside blank for personal messages. I’m looking forward to a week of inspiration with you. Great start to the week 💜

Jean said...

So pretty! I usually put the sentiment outside.

Jacque Bauer said...

A beautiful, clean and simple card. I love it. Sentiments on probably 99% of my cards. I’m looking forward to your cards this week. Thank you for sharing your talents with us.

Very pretty card. I love it. I saw this stamp before and didnt like it. After seeing your card, now I do!!! You brought a new life to it!

Hcope said...

Thanks for sharing. As far as the the sentiment for me it depends on the card. I tent to put my sentiments on the outside and leave the inside blank for a special note.

Wilma DeG said...

Your cards are lovely. I do both... most of the time I put a sentiment on the outside, but not always. I add a sentiment inside about half the time.

Denise S. said...

Beautiful cards. It depends on my mood. I put sentiments on a lot of them, but also leave a fair number blank so that I can add a sentiment for last minute cards. That way I can add a sentiment that fits what I want to send out without have to make a whole card if I am crunched for time.

Stephanie said...

Very pretty cards.... I do both, sentiments on and off.

Suz said...

Pretty cards. If I’m making a card for a specific person I usually put sentiment on outside and inside. IF I am making them ahead sometimes I put sentiments in both places but typically it’s just a generic “thinking of you” or similar and blank on the inside so I can use card for lots of needs

Denise Bryant said...

Beautiful cards! I love the flower and the background designs!
I usually add a sentiment to my cards.

Jayne R said...

Beautiful cards! Sentiment use varies with me - sometimes front and sometimes inside or both.

Vicki Pearson said...

So pretty, have to get my stamp out like that and ink her up! Hello to a fellow Minnesotan!

Jan said...

Pretty card! I like generic sentiments on the outside and blank on the inside with a stamped image to match the front. I’ll add my sentiment to the inside as needed or write a little note.

{S} said...

Lovely color variations! 90% of the time I use a sentiment on the front of a card.

Linda said...

Love the soft colors on your cards. I usually do a sentiment on the inside, but if making a bunch of cards, will leave it until I know who it is for and then do the sentiment to fit the person.

Jen R. said...

Often, I leave the front blank except for sympathy cards.

karen adams said...

Depends on the card! Yours is beautiful!

Holley (Tondre) Barnhart said...

Gorgeous. I like your card layout with and without the sentiment but personally I usually do out some simple saying on my cards. Can't wait to see more of your creations

Linda said...

Your cards are very pretty. Yes to sentiment but it can go on the inside if it distracts from the outside. What stamps did you use?

Scrapper69 said...

Wow Sarah!!! Your cards are beautiful! I love the floral design and colors! I tend to put sentiments on my cards. I guess I feel my card is not complete without it. I like that you don't have a sentiment on the one card, I can see how it could be used for any occasion. I should challenge myself to try it! Have a great day!

Glennis F said...

Love your design. I mostly put sentiments on if I know who the card is going to

Kathy Maguire said...

I love your beautiful cards, Sarah! This is one of my favorite stamps. I love the colors you chose. I especially love the bow on the top one. Great idea! Thanks for sharing!

Crystal O. Minkler said...

Beautiful card!! I love the soft colors you chose! I tend to put sentiments on the front of my card and I like to stamp them inside the card, as well. Sometimes, though, a card just doesn’t need it, but it’s not often that it happens. Great start to your week!!

Lovely card. for me it depends if I have a card I need to send out whether I put a saying on it or not.

Love your cards! I almost always add sentiments to my cards. I usually make several of the same design and a lot of them can be for any occasion so, I will make some as birthday, thinking of you, get well, etc. I'm looking forward to the rest of your GIU week!

Kim Klinkovsky.My Kraft Kloset said...

Very pretty. Would love to know more about your techniques and how you designed the background. Love those stamps and overall design. Just lovely cards. Thanks for the inspiration!

Shelly Schmidt said...

So pretty! I love both of your cards. I am not one to use cards from the stash too often...my kids and hubby do, but I make them as needed, so usually do add a sentiment! Congrats on your GIU week! I look forward to seeing your cards!

Vannessa Osbourn said...

Lovely card, I do both sometimes put a sentiment on when I know who and what the occasion I'm making it for is but often leave them blank if I'm just making stash cards. Looking forward to your creations this week!

Dorothy Green said...

I love the pretty soft water colors on your sweet card!!

Unknown said...

Really sweet!

I do like to put sentiments on the front of my cards, and in the inside. :)

Gina Gibson said...

A very pretty card. Elegant in it's simplicity. Thank you for sharing it.
❤ ... As for your sentiment question, it depends on my card's layout. Sometimes I omit it all together on the card front.
