Hello Friends…

I’m back again sharing a project for Unity Stamp Company. Today’s card is based on the Assemble This! Sketch No. 5. Where we have a spray of images going from the top left and down to the bottom right. It can be anything you’d like it to be, but I decided to go with a floral design.

The Details
These flowers are classic… timeless… necessary! So absolutely stunning and beautiful. I could use them over and over again. Um, maybe I do. Haha. I really love how pretty they are and you can adjust the colors to any project.
Today, I’m using that amazing barn wall background stamp for a shabby chic look. Think Shiplap ah la Joanna Graines and then popping up some gorgeous yellow flowers. I’m a watercoloring fool with a bit of string and a popped up
The Steps
Here are the steps to recreate this card:
- Start with a standard size A2 card (4.25″ x 5.5″) card.
- Stamp barn wall background using a dark brown ink onto kraft cardstock. Blend on some Distress ink to give it a variation of color like wood. Adhere to card front.
- Tie s
tring around card front. - Stamp flowers onto Canson XL watercolor paper with dark brown ink and heat emboss with clear embossing powder. Watercolor with Distress Inks and let dry completely.
- Fussy cut flowers out and pop up on card front the foam adhesive.
- Stamp sentiment on
strip of kraft paper and pop oncard front. - Add Morning Dew Nuvo Drops to
card .

This is all kinds of gorgeous! I love that shabby background (that sounds so wrong, but I know you know what I mean 😉 ) with the beautiful spray of flowers.
