Fabulous Foliage - Brutus Monroe Inspiration Team Hop

Hello crafty friends! Thanks for stopping by. This week for the Brutus Monroe Inspiration Team blog hop, the theme is “Fabulous Foliage”. I’m on vacation for a couple weeks, spending time with family on the east coast, so I had pre-stamped this amazing succulent frame stamp, and heat embossed it with Penny EP, and I brought my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers on our trip to color with. 


I colored with a variety of greens, blues and yellows, and then filled in the background with some sandy browns. I blended a lot of the colors together with a Spectrum Noir shimmer pen, which is my favorite way to fade and blend my zigs! I wish it was easier to pick up the shimmer on camera.


Have you tried any of the new border stamps from Brutus Monroe yet? Share your projects to social media, and be sure to use the hashtags #BrutusMonroe and #CreateYourOwnEnding so we can see what you make! Now keep hopping to see the cool foliage projects from my fellow team members.

Brutus Monroe & Unity Stamps Blog Hop

Hello crafty friends! Lauren here, and I am so excited to be a part of this hop! Starting my blogging journey with a collaboration from two AMAZING companies, Brutus Monroe and Unity Stamp Co., is a dream come true. This collaboration includes four gorgeous backgrounds that you NEED in your collection! Background stamps are incredibly versatile; there are so many cool projects that you'll see as you follow this hop. Be sure to check out the Instagram hop as well, because they are doing a giveaway for a few lucky commenters! Click here for my Instagram... The card was made with the Barn Wall background stamp. I started by stamping it in Brutus Monroe's Raven ink , and then using a laser printer to photocopy the image onto the Brutus Monroe aqua pigment paper . Luckily it is lightweight enough to not jam up the laser printer! I used DecoFoil in the color "Gold" and ran the project through my laminator, leaving this lovely gold foiled background. Ne
