Altenew June 2018 Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello crafty friends!
Welcome to the Altenew June 2018 Stamp/Die Release Blog Hop! If you arrived here from Raquel Bowman’s blog you are on the right track!

Today I am featuring the new Sweetest Peas Stamp Set – it’s so unique and whimsical design, a perfect set for watercolouring!
I stamped floral images from the Sweetest Peas set onto watercolour paper panel using VersaFine Smokey Gray pigment ink – I used the MISTI tool for stamping. I then watercoloured all stamped images with some blue & green coloured Distress inks and Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel. I added dark blue ink splatters all over the panel.
Once the panel was dry, I mounted the panel on Cornflower Blue card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the sentiment banner using foam tape.

Flora & Fauna: Strawberry Fields

Hello crafty friends!
Today I have a colourful (and cheerful) card to share with you using so adorable Flora & Fauna Strawberry Fields stamp set.

Here is what I came up with:
I started by stamping adorable images from the Strawberry Fields set onto watercolour paper panel using VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink. I then watercoloured them. Once the panel was completely dry, I trimmed the panel down using scallop stitches die.
I heat embossed the sentiment on black card stock with white embossing powder, trimmed it down. I mounted the main panel on kraft card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the sentiment banner using foam tape.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!

For the sentiment, I used the Aviary stamp set.
I distressed two edges of the main panel, decorated it with natural twine.

Here is another watercoloured flower card. I stamped the image from the Springfield set onto watercolour panel in pigment black ink, simply watercoloured it. :D

SSS Floral Thanks

Hello crafty friends!
Today I’m popping in to share with you my floral thanks card using several SSS flower stamp sets.

I started by die cutting the Wonky Rectangle panel from watercolour paper. I then randomly stamped flowers (from the Mom Flowers set) with VersaFine Onyx Black, leaves (from the Bold Flowers set) with Willow & Scuba hybrid inks. I coloured the stamped flowers with Candied Apple Distress ink, background with Pumice Stone Distress ink. I stamped tiny dots & flowers (from the Handwritten Floral Greetings set) around the flowers in black. Once the floral panel was completely dry, I mounted it on white top-folded card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the “Thanks” sentiment die cut on the card front using foam tape. I embellished with a few PPP clear jewels for finishing touches.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

SSS Welcome Baby

Hello crafty friends, TGIF!
Today I’m popping in to share with you my two baby themed cards using the Hello There Stamp Set along with other SSS products. I love using adorable critter images when I create the baby cards. :D

For my first card, I stamped the cute critters from the Hello There set on white card stock using Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink, coloured them with Faber-Castell polychromos colored pencils, then fussy cut them out. I die cut three stitched circle windows from an A2 white paper panel using the Stitched Circles dies, adhered critter images & soft coloured card stocks behind the circle window panel using foam tape. For the sentiment, I used the Handlettered Greetings die & the Oh Baby stamp set. I decorated the bottom of the card front with the Altenew Dotted washi tape, then added some sequins.

Here is another baby card with the Hello There stamp set! I stamped & watercoloured the flowers, I used Post-It Notes for masking, and then fussy cut it out. I adhered the koala behind the watercoloured flowers, then mounted it on white card base using foam tape.
Oh, I love this peeking koala so much!!

Please don’t forget this awesome crafty sale this weekend! The code is RANGER25.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!
