Today I'm sharing a brightly colored floral card I recently made using Unity Stamps, Inked Florals - Background. A friend of ours was in rehab following a stroke and I wanted to send her something to cheer her up and bring a smile to her day!
I started by stamping the image with Versa Clair Black then heat embossing with clear. I used my Copic markers for the coloring and then trimmed to fit the front of an A2 card base.
Once secured on the base, I added the hello sentiment in the center and finished the design with a piece of ribbon trim that was used as a package bow on a gift I received. Do you ever recycle things onto your cards?
I love the bright colors with the coordinating pink card base and hope that it helped her feel better when she received it.

Lovely color combo with the Unity floral stamp, Pam! I'm sure this will cheer your friend. I love it when I can "upcycle" items with my card making as well!
