Turns out that this is my 700th Blog post!
The girls from July and August 2018 Growing in Unity are delighted to be hop, hop, hopping today!
If you are following the hop you should have arrived from Helen Smit's blog.
Here's the full hop in case you get lost along the way!

For my hop creations I decided to use the gorgeous kit I picked as my GIU prize: Stories to Tell (smak 8/18).
I've not had time to play with this set, so picked out the stunning smaller sunflower image to be the focal point of my card and tag. I think it was this image that originally drew me to the set.
Just look at all the different images in this kit - what a beaut! You can see why I bagged this one as my prize.
I hope you've enjoyed your visit here today. Don't forget to leave a comment as there are two lovely Unity prize packs up for grabs along the route of the hop.
Thanks for hopping with the GUI gals today. Your next stop is the blog of the lovely Teresa Godines. Have fun, and thanks for visiting!

Hi Jo. Gorgeous kit and stunning card and tag. It looks so striking in black and white. Hugz
These are so beautiful. I almost chose that same SMAK as my prize too. I ended up with another SMAK, but still love this one and your creations show me why I still want it.
Awesome tag and card! The black flowers look stunning on the kraft tag.
A very beautiful stamp set!
I love this card. I have never had a smak kit, I can not afford to belong to kits but I always wondered what you would do with things like this. The card is simply stunning all by itself thank you for sharing
