Peony Hugs – Unity Stamp Company

April 5, 2020

Happy Sunday crafty friends! I hope you are having a good weekend! I have been able to start working in my garden which is one of my other loves! It feels so good! I am actually headed back outside shortly! Today I am sharing another card design using the Peony Hugs – Unity Stamp Company. I LOVE this set! The gorgeous full blooms are amazing and is designed by artist Graciellie Designs! This gorgeous set is still on SALE today – you can find it here, as well as here is a link to the amazing flash sale from this weekend! I am truly grateful if you use my affiliate link! Thank you!

I started by stamping my image on kraft card stock. I love kraft paper and the rustic vibe it has! If you saw my home, you would know I love the country/rustic vibe! I wanted to use colored pencils for my coloring today. I used a variety of shades of yellow, deep orange, and a deep brown on the flowers, along with white. I always start from the lightest shade and work my way to the darkest. For my leaves I used a light green, dark green, a teal, as well as a little yellow in some areas. I really let my pencils do most of the work as far as the shading, in a couple sports I may have pushed to hard.

I then used my brother scan and cut to cut my peony image. I set this aside. I then chose the same kraft for a card panel. I used a combination of white, gold, and black splatters. I then used a hero arts rectangle die to cut the outer edge of the kraft and a Gina Marie designs die to add the dot details to the inner portion of the card panel. I adhered the panel to a brown card base (Recollections 120 lb paper). I used foam adhesive to adhere my floral image and I used all 3 sentiments from this beautiful set. I adhered them in various spots on my card panel. I then added 3 Nuvo drops in black.

I hope you enjoy this card! If you love this gorgeous set I encurage you to add it to your cart today! Have a wonderful weekend! I truly appreciate your time and your encouragement!

Supplies Used:

  • Stamp – Peony Hugs – Unity Stamp Company
  • Paper: Kraft card stock (Stampin Up), Recollections brown 120 lb
  • Coloring Medium: Arteza 120 colored pencils
  • Other – Gina Marie Designs Die, Hero Arts, Nuvo Drops

Enjoy your afternoon! Crafty Hugs,

Natasha

    Gorgeous card Natasha and great colouring. I love the kraft cardstock.
    Which S & C do you have? It cuts great, I hardly see any cardstock outside the lines or did you cut is later also?
    Thank you so much for sharing, stay safe and have a great week.

      Hi sweet friend! Hope your day is good! I have the scan and cut dx125. I love it! For this one I did a direct cut on the line. So once it was done, I didn’t have to do anything else. Sometimes Ileave a border too, but it depends on what I am making. I got a good deal on it at holiday time.
