Unity stamps and a CAS challenge

Hey, hey stampers! Hope your doing well.  

I had an awesome start to my Sunday.  Ever have one of those classes that kick your booty, but makes  you feel so accomplished after?  Well, that was my day.  I started with an intense Warrior Sculpt class.  If your not familiar it a high intensity work out combining weights and yoga moves.  You are moving the entire class with weights in your hands.  Even with tiny weights it's a workout! Then I did surrender yoga, this is the AHHHHHHH! type class.  It's a more mat based yoga class where you get into a pose and hold it a while.  It's just a great stretch to follow the intense class.  ThenI finished with a meditation class.  Which, I honestly don't remember because I'm pretty sure I slept through it.  lol. It as awesome and I felt so good after.  Then a nice new hair trim to finish the afternoon.  Now I'm just relaxing in my stamp room.  And get to talk to all my stamping friends :) 

On to the Splitcoast Stamper Challenge.  This week Lisa challenges us to use gold on our projects.  

I started my card by stamping the Unity KOTM image from Sweetness, Miracles and Kisses  in gold delicata ink, then heat embossing with gold glitter embossing powder!  

I love the gold sparkle, you should see it in real life.  It's SOOOOO pretty! 

I started coloring the image, trying to channel my inner gold goddess to come out but I went a bit to orange in my color selection.  But I loved it so I kept going! 

Then I used a die from The Greetery to die cut the panel.  

I really didn't think the card needed much else so I added just a touch of washiest tape.  

See all the gorgeous sparkle!  

Ok, I just couldn't decide what images to use, so you are getting them all.
