Unity and Brutus Monroe Blog Hop

Good evening! This post is part of a fun hop with Unity Stamp Company to celebrate a great new collection of backgrounds as part of a collaboration with Brutus Monroe - you can find them all HERE! There are 4 $100 prize packs up for grabs on this blog hop - AND, we are also having an Instagram Hop with giveaways as well!


My cards tonight feature the Spilled Paint background - there would have been a video, but...technical difficulties, you know? :)


I used a variety of colored cardstock, and heat embossed the Spilled Paint Background in simple clear embossing for a neutral but fun background, then die cut them first with a rectangle die, then used a circle die to cut out the centers.


I then filled in the centers of them with a sentiment and adorable images from another new release, Woodland Festivities - part of the adorable new line from Lisa Glanz! I colored them all up with just a few simple neutral colors, added some glittery snow under them each, then mounted the front frames over the top with foam adhesive on soft gray cardbases. Here is a closer look at each color:









Which color is your favorite? I think I'm a bit partial to the blue, but so hard to choose!


Here is the entire blog hop line-up so you don't get lost along the way:

  15. I love these cards each one is cuter than the other. I love bright colors and the little animals are so cute inside. They are great I think if I had to pick a favorite it would be the pink with the little bunny. It just looks so cute like it is looking up and reading the verse
