Membership Monday ~ July 2021 BOM Art Deco ~ Unity Stamp Co.

 Hello there crafty friends!

It's time for another Membership Monday and today I'm sharing the lovely new Background of the Month from Unity Stamp Co. called Art Deco!! Such a stunning background stamp!

I thought I would keep it simple and let the background design be the star of the card! So I used the awesome new happy birthday dies from the Chic Script Salutations {die set}!

I did a little ink smooshing with Crackling Campfire, Spiced Marmalade, and Mustard Seed Distress Oxide inks. I trimmed the background and die cut the shadow happy birthday dies from the background. I cut a piece of Dandelion Delight card stock from Stampin' Up for the shadow and then also cut a card front measuring 4-1/4 x 5-1/2" from Marigold Morning card stock, also from Stampin' Up. I adhered all my layers and then adhered them to a white A2 top fold card base. 

I die cut the happy birthday three times from True Black card stock from Papertrey Ink and adhered them all together... I love the dimension it gives the sentiment!

To finish off this pretty card, I added a few Nuvo Black Board Vintage drops. A pretty quick and easy birthday card for my stash! The most time consuming part was die cutting and adhering the happy birthday, so really not bad at all!

I hope you've been inspired to ink up your Background of the Month stamp! I'll see you next Monday with a CAS card using the beautiful July 2021 Uniquely Unity membership stamp!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,

Crystal

Membership Monday ~ June 2021 BOM Tropical Palm ~ Unity Stamp Co.

 Hello there crafty friend!

For this week's Membership Monday I'm featuring the fabulous new June 2021 Background of the Month from Unity Stamp Co. called Tropical Palm!! This background makes me want to go on vacation and have a yummy mojito... so of course, I used the Hello Mojito stamp set for my card!!

Isn't it a beautiful background and I love it paired up with the pretty mojito stamp! I blended Twisted Citron, Squeezed Lemonade and Kitsch Flamingo on a 4-1/4 x 5-1/2" piece of white card stock and then I stamped the Tropical Palm background stamp with Ranger Archival Jet Black ink. I did a little water splatter but it doesn't really show up in the photos. I trimmed the background to 3-7/8 x 5-1/8" and mat it with a 4-1/4 x 5-1/2" piece of Hibiscus Burst card stock from Papertrey Ink. I then mat the card front on a white A2 top fold card base and set it aside.

I stamped the mojito glass with Gina K. Design Amalgam Black ink and heat set it with my Mini Wagner Heat Tool. I colored it up with the following Copic markers:

Mint Leaves ~ YG11, G07, G14

Limes ~ YG11, G14, G21

Ice Cubes / Glass ~ C00, C2, YG0000, YG01, Colorless Blender

Straw / Hearts ~ RV04, RV52

If you've been inspired to get it inky with this fun new Background of the Month stamp, I hope you share it in the Unity {Show & Tell} Facebook group... I'd love to see what you create! I'll see you next Monday with another card using the fabulous June 2021 Kit of the Month stamps!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,

Crystal
