Hello crafty friends, happy Monday!
I’m up on the Altenew blog today with my watercoloured cards using the newly released Layered Letters AFG Stamp Set.
For today’s stamp focus projects, I made the same layout but different background & colored cards!

“Amazing” card: 1) Stamped the letter “A” from the Layered Letters AFG set on white card stock with Jet Black & Ruby Red dye inks, then die cut it with the matching die. 2) Stamped the sentiment on watercolor panel in Jet Black dye ink. 3) Stamped and watercolored flowers and leaves from the Golden Garden set. Allow to dry completely. 4) Mounted the watercolored panel on Apple Red card base using glue tape first, and then added “A” alpha die cut using foam tape.
“Faithful” card: 1) Stamped the letter “F” from the Layered Letters AFG set on white card stock with Jet Black & Ocean Waves dye inks, then die cut it with the matching die. 2) Stamped the sentiment on watercolor panel in Jet Black dye ink. 3) Stamped and watercolored feathers & others from the Happy Dreams set. Allow to dry completely. 4) Mounted the watercolored panel on Aqua blue card base using glue tape first, and then added “F” alpha die cut using foam tape.
“Generous” card: 1) Stamped the letter “G” from the Layered Letters AFG set on white card stock with Jet Black & Forest Glades dye inks, then die cut it with the matching die. 2) Stamped the sentiment on watercolor panel in Jet Black dye ink. 3) Stamped and watercolored peonies from the Adore You set.

Altenew May 2017 Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello crafty friends!
Welcome to the Altenew May 2017 Release Blog Hop!! If you arrived here from Nicole Picadura’s blog you are on the right track!
We are releasing 16 stamp sets, 12 coordinating die sets, 3 stand alone dies, and 6 embossing powders.For my first card, I used the Strawberry mini stamp set along with the Handmade Tags stamp set. I randomly stamped those yummy cakes and cookies on watercolour paper using brown pigment ink, watercoloured them with Distress markers. I stamped and watercoloured strawberry cake on a separate watercolour paper, die cut it with the matching die.
Once the watercoloured panel was dry, I mounted it on top-folded pink card base using glue tape, and then added strawberry cake die cut & sentiment banner on it using foam tape.

Here is another watercolour card I made using brand new Ice Cream mini stamp set and the Way Too Sweet stamp set.

They look so fresh and delicious, aren’t they? :)

Altenew Build-A-Flower: Magnolia Release + Giveaway

Hello crafty friends, happy Monday! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!!
Its already day 15 of another great month, and that means it’s time for another beautiful all-new Build-A-Flower set! M is for May and Magnolia!! Come enjoy our beautiful Build-A-Flower Magnolia set – It’s only available as a set, not individual product.

For my first card, I made a watercolour magnolia. I 1) Cut the Layered Floral Cover Die A from the Spicy Yogurt card stock, and then adhered it on the same Spicy Yogurt card base using Glue Tape. 2) Heat embossed the outlined magnolia image from the Build-A-Flower Magnolia set on watercolour paper in white, coloured it with Distress inks & markers, and then die cut it with the matching die in the set. 3) Heat embossed the sentiment on black card stock in white, trimmed it down. 4) Mounted all elements as shown to the floral base using foam tape.

For my second card, I stamped the layered magnolia with some dye inks: (Petals) Frosty Pink, Coral Berry, Ruby Red / (Leaves) Forest Glades, Evergreen / (Branch) Dark Chocolate. Once the ink was completely dry, I heat embossed the outlined magnolia image on the layered stamped image in gold.

Altenew – Hugs

Hello again! (This is my second post of the day, for the MFT WSC 330, click HERE.)
I’m up on the Altenew blog today with my faux watercoloured hugs card using the Garden Treasure stamp set and the Inline Alpha die set.

To create the card, I 1) Die cut a piece of watercolour paper using A2 sized rectangle panel die. 2) Stamped leaf from the Garden Treasure set randomly onto the panel with some green colored Altenew dye inks: Evergreen, Forest Glades, Frayed Leaf, Bamboo, Parrot, Olive, and Moss. 3) Ink blended the edges of the stamped panel with Mowed Lawn Distress ink and mini ink blending tool. 4) Brushed all over the panel using a wet paint brush – Altenew dye ink is lightly mixed with water before the ink was dry. 5) Die cut the word “hugs” from white card stock using the Inline Alpha die set five times each alphabet, and then glued each alphabet thicker using fine tip glue pen. 6) Mounted the panel on white card base using glue tape, then added the sentiment die cuts on the bottom part of the card front using fine-tip glue pen. 7) Embellished with a few clear droplets.
