Growing in Unity Blog Hop

 Welcome back, stamping friends -

Today I am sharing another Unity Stamp Company project as part of a Growing in Unity blog hop.


This stamp,  called Funky Flowers, is big and bold, and fills up an entire slimline card front! I love that! I also love that you can use just portions of the stamp on other sizes, including mini slimline or A2. I'll be trying that soon!



I wanted to do something a little different than I did during my Growing in Unity week at the beginning of August. Most of those cards (all but one, actually), were colored with Copic markers. I wanted to try to watercolor these big bold flowers so I broke out my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. I still need a lot of practice coloring with the Zigs, but I had a lot of fun trying! 
I added some touches of Glaze Gel pens but it's difficult to see in the photos.



When I was finished coloring the image I die cut the panel with a slimline framelit and mounted it on a black mat. I cut the word Beautiful from the Say It Big die set three times out of black cardstock and layered them together with liquid glue. I cut the shadow die out of vellum so the word would stand out, but the shadow wouldn't completely cover the flowers. 
I also added a white embossed on black sentiment strip, popped up with foam tape.
