Be the Change


I LOVE this quote from Ghandi that says "Be the change you wish to see in the world." All too often, we complain about what is wrong or philosophize about how people should act, but we don't take the action ourselves. This stamp is a single unmounted stamp from Unity Stamp Company, and I LOVE IT! It is big enough for a focal image, and it retails for ONLY $4! You really can't beat that. We carry this Be the Change stamp as well as lots of other unmounted stamps from Unity at Limelight Papercrafts! Click here to see the Unity Stamps!

I made this card using Waste Not Paper Chocolate recycled card stock. This is such a rich color, and it makes a great card base! I have two patterned papers from the Basic Grey Sultry collection behind the main image. There are Soft Pink Kaisercraft Rhinestones in the divide between the two papers.

Hope you enjoy this card! I was really happy with the way it turned out!

Stamps: Be the Change (Unity). Paper: WNP Chocolate, BG Sultry, Very Vanilla. Ink: Chocolate Chip. Accessories: Kaisercraft Soft Pink Rhinestones, Prima Flower.

Very pretty - at first I thought the black was a frame - what a great project that would be! Great card!
