Advent Calendar Day 22 ~ Heart to Heart ~ December Challenge All About Backgrounds ~ Unity Stamp Co.

 Hello there crafty friend!

Today I'm sharing inspiration for the December challenge over in the Unity Show & Tell group. This month it's All About Backgrounds!! I'm also sharing inspiration for the 2022 Advent Calendar.

Today is Day 22 for the Advent Calendar and the stamp is a cute heart encircled by the words 'Made With Love'. I've paired up this cute stamp with the recent new release called Heart to Heart.

Not sure where to start to create a background? Grab some pattern paper! The beautiful sweater pattern paper I used is from the amazing December 2022 Whit Kit called Getting Cozy. Oh boy are the papers in the Getting Cozy {paper pack} just the coziest!! I stamped the hearts and 'xoxo' with Lumberjack Plaid, Festive Berries and Worn Lipstick Distress Inks.

Next I splattered all over the background with Liquid Pixie Dust. I then die cut the background with the largest stitched rectangle die from the Scallops & Rectangles {nesting dies}. The cute 'Made with Love' heart was stamped with Lumberjack Plaid Distress ink and then copic colored very simply with R20, R14, R27. Finally, I die cut the heart and a red mat using the two smallest circle dies from the Scallops & Circles {nesting dies}. Adhered the circles together and then I popped them up on the card.

Pull out those pretty pattern papers and play along! Mix it up and play with a fun stencil over the pattern paper! The possibilities are endless!! I can't wait to see what you create! Be sure to share your cards in the Unity Show & Tell group and also add them to the December challenge album in the group to be entered for a prize!! See you back here next Thursday for more inspiration for the All About Backgrounds challenge!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,
