Hi friends! Lisa here, and I’m so excited to share one of my cards featured in this month’s Unity membership insert.
I had so much fun creating this relaxing, masculine design using May’s Background of the Month and Kit of the Month. Each month, Unity members receive a gorgeous full-color insert with two card ideas… including this one! It’s such a joy to see those ideas come to life with the fantastic stamps and paper we get in our kits.
This card is all about slowing down and taking it easy. I paired the earthy cracked texture of Walk This Way with the hammock image from the Slow Down & Savor Kit of the Month. It’s such a calm, cozy vibe, so perfect for Father’s Day or any chill celebration. I layered torn patterned papers from the Hey. There. pack and used the Deckle & Stitches Nesting Dies to add even more texture. The sentiment strips give it that playful, “do nothing” energy I love.
Assembly Instructions
- Create an A2 (4.25″ x 5.5″) card base with white cardstock.
- Stamp the BOM on a piece of pattern paper and trim to 4.25″ x 5.5″. Adhere to the card base.
- Cut 2 more 4.25″ & 5.5″ pieces of pattern paper and tear diagonally.
- Adhere to the card front so they layer.
- Stamp the KOM image onto pattern paper. Die cut with a deckle edge die and mat with black cardstock also die cut with a deckle edge die. Adhere to the card front with foam tape.
- Stamp the KOM sentiment on pattern paper and trim into blocks. Mat with black cardstock and adhere to the card with foam tape.
- Use the leftovers with another KOM sentiment to decorate the inside of the card.
If you’re not already part of Unity’s monthly memberships, I can’t recommend them enough.
