First Unity November SMAK Card

When I saw the background twig stamp in Unity’s Peace in Your Soul November 2020 Kit, I saw snow-kissed ground, with wisps of branches peeking out, looking down from above. I decided it might look great with a sentiment from the same kit and the deer from the Be Very Merry, September 2019 SMAK Kit.

I started this card by first sprinkling Stargazer Primary Elements Pigment on a card and spritzing with water. Once dried I stamped the twig stamp in gray archival ink all over. I then sprayed Iced Spruce and Speckled Egg oxide sprays onto a mat and dipped a bit of bubble wrap in the wrap in the mix and made small splotches of the mixture all over. I then stamped the deer in dark brown ink and used a white pen to whiten the areas of the image.

I next turned to silver, teal and white embossing powders to add a bunch of snowflakes from the kit. I used Prismacolor pencils to add the impression of a shadow. I embossed the sentiment with silver embossing powder on a piece of patterned paper and used another patterned piece from the same collection as a foundation layer on a dark brown card base. I backed each layer with dark brown paper and added another patterned paper inside the card. To complete the card, I added a sheer snowflake ribbon and brown crystals.

Can’t wait to try out other stamps from the kit! Till next time, happy crafting!
