Hello everyone. Happy 4th of July. Today I'm so excited for our Friends Of Unity Blog Hop and the Cue this month is a Color Challenge for July. I love these colors and I really tried to use stamps I normally wouldn't use in this color combo and I had so much fun. There are 4 prizes up for grabs all you need to do is use the color challenge inspiration photo and upload to the Unity Album Show and Tell FB group. It's not 4th of July themed but if that is what inspires you then go ahead!
Let's Get Started:
Since there is Christmas in July, I chose to do a Holiday card. I used a retired stamp set called Believe in the Magic and stamped my image with Memento Tuxedo ink on a white panel 4 x 5 1/4. I then colored with my Copic Markers. B16, B06, R27, R35. I also stamped a sentiment from the same stamp set.
Next, I layered my panel onto a red cardstock 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 panel. I added some white snowflake embellishments from a Unity Stamp Co. Advent Calendar and added red cranberry stickles to my ornament toppers. I then glued everything to a white top folding card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.
Well, I was so excited to make this card. I used KOM May 2026 for the Still Kickin' stamp set. I stamped him on Neenah Desert Storm cardstock 85 pounds with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored in with my colored Prismacolor Pencils. I think he's celebrating America's 250th Birthday. I think this stamp is adorable. I fussy cut him and put him aside.
Next, I stamped the Polka Dance Background stamp on white cardstock with Hero Hues inks in Deep Ocean and Cherry. I stamped a sentiment from the same set with black ink onto my background and cut my background to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 and glued to a A2 top folding card base.
And here is card 3. I used A Light To Weather by June 2026 Background of the month stamp. I stamped this light house on a white A2 cardstock panel with Memento Nautical Blue ink. I also stamped the birds too with the same ink. I stamped the sentiment with Hero Arts Cherry ink. I love this stamp I knew it would be perfect for this Cue. I ink blended some red ink using Memento Ladybug ink and also ink blended Nautical blue ink using small blending brushes.
I loved creating all my cards for this month's cue. I hope you like them!
I can't wait to see what my friends came up with. Visit my friends for more inspiration !!!
