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.
