Day 1 with Growing In Unity - Bookmark

This is my second post for today....Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog was posted before this post.

Hello Unity followers!!  I'm the Growing In Unity Guest Designer for the week and I'm very excited about this!!!!  I love Unity Stamps!  I will be posting a new project everyday this week using Unity.  At the end of the week, I will get to choose one person who has left comments as the winner of two Itty Bitty stamps. So let the fun begin!

To start off the week, I decided to make a bookmark for my 8 year old son.  He loves to read and somehow manages to have more than one book at a time.  I wanted it to have bold colors, because he is ALL boy.  He also has a monster themed room, so a monster bookmark was in order.  


Such a cute little guy.  I used Unity Cuter Than Most stamp set.  The sentiment also from the stamp set.  I colored this cute little guy with color pencils and fussy cut him out.  Knowing how rough boys are with their stuff, I cut out the die-cuts twice and glued the two backs together.  Extra sturdy, we hope.


Here's the back.  Of course I will have to put some mushy lovin comment on the back before I give it to him.


Here's the stamp set I used for the project.

Don't forget to leave a comment for a chance to win 2 Itty Bitty stamps from Unity!!!
