Hello Crafty friends! I wanted to stop in to share a beautiful background stamp from Unity Stamp Company – Butterfly Breeze Meadow! This is a previous background of the month stamp and it is truly a dream to color! So let’s get started!
I started with a piece of Hammermill cardstock. I inked blended around the edges of the panel using Distress Oxides in: Antique Linen, Pumice Stone, Wild Honey, and Vintage Photo. I allowed the panel to completely dry, I then prepped the panel with my embossing buddy and stamped the beautiful background Butterfly Breeze Meadow in Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink. I then heat embossed the background using clear embossing powder. Next I colored the background using my Tombow markers. I work in layers coloring 1 layer at a time, allowing the color to dry, then add another layer of color. I follow these steps until all of the florals are colored.
Next I trimmed the panel using my Deckle Edge trimmer, I then distressed the edges with my distress tool and darkened the edges with Distress Ink in Ground Espresso. I then added splatters using a combination of metallic watercolors and allowed the panel to dry completely. I then chose a sentiment from Happy Birthday Gnome and stamped the sentiment using Pitch Black Ink. I trimmed the sentiment using my scissors. I completed the card by distressing the edges with embossing glaze in Salvage Patina. I then adhered the sentiments, as well as a few sequins to complete my card!
