Membership Wednesday ~ June 2025 BOM Check it Out ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

Happy Membership Wednesday! Today I'm sharing a quick masculine card featuring an older stamp from Unity along with the awesome Check it Out background stamp from the June 2025 Background of the Month membership. 

I stamped the awesome background directly onto the front of a white A2 top fold card base with Black Amalgam ink and distressed the edges with some Vintage Photo Distress Ink. So super easy and it looks just like a chess board. 

My oldest son likes to play chess so I thought I'd make him a chess themed birthday card. I remembered the chess pieces from an old KOM and after a bit of investigating I found it. It's in the December 2018 KOM called Best Friend Till the End. I stamped them with Black Amalgam ink and colored them with just a few Copic markers - E000, E21, E33.

I die cut the chess pieces using a square die from the Scallops & Squares {nesting dies} and distressed the edges very lightly using residual ink on my brush. I then adhered it to a black mat that I die cut with the next largest die. The fun sentiment is a new fave from the Ween Party Crew stamps that I heat embossed using Ultra Fine Embossing Powder Raven embossing powder from Brutus Monroe. I trimmed up the sentiment and mat it with some leftover black card stock. Easy peasy and I sure hope he likes it.

Here's a quick look at this month's Background of the Month membership!

Well, that's it for me today! I hope you've been inspired to play with your membership stamps! Have an INKtastic day!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,

Crystal
