It’s time for another post on the Unity Blog and today I am sharing a pair of autumnal artist trading cards. The Love Never Leaves stamp set came out of retirement last week and has been living on my desk ever since. Be sure to check it out along with the awesome new releases that dropped last week at Unity Stamp Company.
Standard ATCs are 2.5″ X 3.5″ in size. So I started with two pieces of Kraft cardstock cut to size. Next, I took a couple of old book pages and ripped them to size using a ruler as a guide. I actually found a book page that had the word autumn on it! How fun!
I adhered the book pages to the ATC bases and used Distress Inks (Fossilized Amber, Forest Moss, Villanous Potion) to stamp the leaves. I went around the ATC edges with distress inks to increase the grunge factor.
I stamped sentiments from Count Your Blessings {kom 8/20} and Embrace the Change on scrap pieces of paper, grunged them up, and added them to the ATCs. Finally, I added splatters using metallic watercolors. Oh, and I did add other little bits like the mini brads and leftover inky gauze on my desk for added texture.
Thank You
