Unity Blog Hop 10.08.15!!

HAPPY Thursday Hop lovelies!

Today I’m sharing a tag I put together using a couple of Unity’s Kits of the Month.

my darling

The focal image of the couple is from the January 2015 Kit of the Month, Magic of Beginnings.

JANUARY-2015-MAGIC-OF-BEGINNINGS

Both of the sentiments are from this month’s NEW Kit of the Month,
Beauty Comes from Being Yourself.

OCTOBER-2015-BEAUTY-COMES-FROM-BEING-YOURSELF

I love to mix images from different kits of the month. For me, I never know when or how inspiration is going to hit, so having these kits on hand and being able to mix them gives me great pleasure and makes it easy to put a project together when inspiration hits.

The inspiration for this tag came in part from seeing the sentiments from the NEW kit of the month. I couldn’t wait to use them. The weather, (or lack thereof), was the other part of the inspiration. I live in California and as everyone knows, we’ve been living in a drought forever. I’m a rain LOVER. Rain makes me feel good, comfortable, and well, romantic. Romantic is definitely a feeling I get when I see the couple’s image from the January Kit of the Month. I LOVE THIS IMAGE!! In a quest for rain sprinkled with romance, the tag was put together pretty quickly, especially with the newsprint-looking background and the vibrant paper piecing I added to the couple. When I look at it, the tag reminds me of a romance novel. Great. Now I NEED chocolate . . . and rain.

NOW . . . on to the good stuff!!
