Butterfly Breeze Meadow | Unity Stamp Company

February 8, 2024

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!

Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I wanted to share a fun and relaxing way to create a 1 layer mixed media card today!  Be sure to check out all the AMAZING monthly memberships Unity Stamp Company has to offer, there is truly something for everyone!
