Unity Stamp Company| Graciellie Designs Blog Hop

Hi there! Thanks so much for hopping with us today! I loved this release so much I made over 12 different cards with this release. I am a bit of a floral gal, so this was right up my alley. I decided to only share 3 projects with you today. You will find a brief summary of how I made each card on the caption.

I started by stamping the sentiment centered directly on the card base. Next, I stamped the flowers in gray and colored these with alcohol markers. I finished up by adding sequins. The stamp set is Simple Wisdom- https://www.unitystampco.com/shop/simple-wisdom/

On watercolor paper, I used Archival black ink and stamped my flowers.  Then with a light blue watercolor the background. Next, the flowers and leaves were colored. The sentiment is heat embossed in white onto the black cardstock and placed on card panel with foam adhesive. Sending Kindness- https://www.unitystampco.com/shop/sending-kindness/ 

Last but not least, this gorgeous simple card is matted on black cardstock. The flowers are stamped on separate (but matching) white cardstock and cut very close to the stamped line. Adhered these to the card base. Then heat embossed in white the sentiment and placed that over the florals with foam adhesive. Finished up by adding black enamel accents.

Simon Says Stamp | STAMPtember by Pretty Pink Posh

Hi there! Welcome to my blog, I am super excited to be part of this year's Simon Says Stamp Stamptember. I design for Pretty Pink Posh and have always been a fan of all things Simon Says, so this stamp set is doubly fun to work with.

This exclusive Stamptember set is super fun as it is a bit different for Pretty Pink Posh. 

Don't you love it? Even though the possibilities are endless with this set, I made 2 cards. First up is this mint and gold beauty

I used SSS Antique Gold embossing powder, Pretty Pink Posh Everyday Greetings and lots of washi tape. Finished the card up with PPP Gold Confetti.

For a fun color alternative, I chose yellow and blue

What are your thoughts? I simply love all the possibilities of this set AND cannot wait to create many more.
