Hello, Lisa Arana here…
I’m so excited about today’s cards featuring Unity Stamp Company sentiment kits. It is a twist on an old technique that anyone can do but has such a lovely effect. We are keeping things easy with simple stamping, simple blending, and simple monochromatic colors. It is the perfect formula for easy, beautiful cards. I have two different versions to share with you today depending on what inspires you.Featured Stamp Set

I’ve created a quick video tutorial on how this card was made. You can watch it below or on YouTube.

The Steps
Here are the steps to recreate this card:- Start with a standard size A2 card (4.25″ x 5.5″) card.
- Stamp the flower from There is No Reason using Gina K ink onto the card base. Stamp the same flower on masking paper and trim out close to the lines. Layer mask over flower on the card base.
- Using the same color of ink and blending brush, blend ink around the masked area. Use a light swirling motion and build up ink color until you reach the desired vibrancy. Remove mask.
- Stamp sentiment in the same color of ink onto a strip of white cardstock and punch a hole in the top.
- Die cut a strip of patterned paper with a scalloped edge. Wrap twine around the strip and thread through the sentiment tag hole. Tie with a bow.
- Pop up the entire panel at the top of the card with foam adhesive.
- Finish the card by gluing some sequins onto the card front with a strong adhesive (ie. Glossy Accents).
