Growing in Unity Day 2

Today is Day 2 of my Growing in Unity week! I love fall and earth tones are my jam! Dreaming Daze by Angie Blom is gorgeous! I love big floral images so much! Today's card was inspired by two Unity cards on the website by Sandhya (colors) and Echo (use of Vintage Ledger). 



I stamped the floral image on Bristol smooth watercolor paper with VersaFine Claire Nocturne ink and heat set. I like to heat set this ink because it does take time to dry. I watercolored the image with Altenew watercolor brush markers. When it was dry, I stamped Vintage Ledger over the top with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. 

I die cut the white and brown panel with the Deckle and Stitches nesting die set.  I blended some Antique Linen Distress Ink around the edges of the white panel and added some black paint spatters. I attached the brown and white panels together then added the twine/bow along the side before adding to a kraft card base. I used another black sentiment strip from the freebie with purchase a while back.

Dreaming Daze

Vintage Ledger

Deckle & Stitches Nesting Die set

Sentiment Strips(freebie a while back)

Distress Ink(Vintage Photo, Antique Linen)

I hope you enjoyed today's card and thanks so much for stopping by!
