PPP March Product Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello crafty friends, TGIF!!
Welcome to the second day of the Pretty Pink Posh March 2018 Product Release Blog Hop! If you arrived here from the Alix Davis’s blog you are on the right track.

To create the card, I stamped flowers & leaves (from the Cherry Blossoms stamp set) and the sentiment (from the Encouraging Greetings stamp set) on watercolour paper panel in black pigment ink. I then lightly coloured the stamped images with watercolours and a wet paint brush. I added red ink splatters.
For the sparkly rainbow, I stamped it from the Best of Luck set on white card stock using Memento Desert Sand dye ink, die cut it with the coordinating die. Once the watercoloured panel was completely dry, I mounted the panel on top-folded kraft card base using double-sided tape, adhered the stamped rainbow die cut above the sentiment, and then added Jewels on it using fine tip glue pen.
I love these new sparkly Jewels so much!!

For my second card, I created a messy watercoloured flower card with the Cherry Blossoms stamp set. I stamped flowers and leaves on watercolour panel using Antique Linen Distress ink first, and then coloured them with Worn Lipstick, Mowed Lawn, and a bit of Wild Honey Distress inks. Next, I brushed over the coloured images with clean water – Distress inks react with water!
Once the floral panel was completely dry, I mounted it on white card base using double-sided tape, and then added details of the images using 0.05mm Copid multiliner, white ink splatters.

For my last card, I am featuring the Cherry Blossoms set and the Stacked Edges 2 die. I die cut 4 diamond stripes from watercolour paper using the Stacked Edges 2 die first, and then inked stripes with Distress inks and round ink blending tool.
For a cluster of flowers, I stamped & watercoloured them, then die cut them with the Cherry Blossoms coordinating dies. I added Jewels for finishing touches.

GIVEAWAY!!
There are 4 $25 gift certificates up for grabs (two winners each day). Winners will be picked randomly along the blog hop. Comments must be left by 11:59 PM PST on 3/12/2018. Winners will be announced on the PPP blog.

Altenew: Forever and Always

Hello crafty friends, I hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Today I have three floral cards to share with you using so beautiful Altenew Forever and Always stamp set.

Doesn’t it look like a real rose? Oh, these two rose bouquets are so beautiful!

For my first card with the Forever and Always set, I created a watercolour card. I stamped the rose bouquet on a watercolour paper using VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink, watercoloured it, and then die cut it with the matching die.
I ink blended on a rectangle watercolour paper panel with Tattered Rose Distress ink, and then stamped the sentiment at the bottom of the panel in black. I die cut from the sentiment panel using the same die, then inlaid the watercoloured rose die cut. Finally, I mounted it on a top-folded kraft card base using double-sided tape.

For my second card, I used the Altenew Artist Markers for flower colouring. I stamped the roses from the Forever and Always set on kraft cardstock using Altenew Mocha dye ink, coloured them with the Artist Markers, and then die cut them with the matching dies. For the sentiment, I heat embossed it onto dark brown cardstock with white embossing powder, and then fussy cut it.

For my last card today, I used polychromos coloured pencils for flower colouring. I heat embossed the rose bouquet on kraft cardstock with white embossing powder first, coloured it with polychromos coloured pencils, and then die cut it using the matching die.
For the card base, I die cut 4 laces from kraft cardstock using the Altenew Creative Edges: Lace die, and then adhered them on the same kraft card base using fine tip glue pen. I stamped the sentiment on the bottom of the card in black and then added the rose bouquet on the centre of the card front using foam tape.

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

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

Spellbinders: Lord is My Strength

Hello crafty friends, happy Wednesday!
Today I want to share with you my colorful (and cheerful) watercolour card with some Spellbinders Joanne Fink Bible Journaling collection products.

Here is what I came up with:
I started by stamping the sentiment from the Take Delight set on the centre of the watercolour paper panel using VersaFine Smokey Grey pigment ink. I then randomly stamped flowers, butterflies, birds, treble clef around the edges of the panel using the same gray pigment ink. I stamped the sentiment & flowers on a separate watercolour paper in grey for adding dimensions to my card later.
I brushed over the stamped images with clean water first, and then coloured them with watercolours just the way I like! I also coloured another stamped flowers (from the Inspiring Others stamp set) with watercolours, and then fussy cut them out.
Once the panel was completely dry, I decorated the panel with lacy ribbon & small flowers as shown to the picture, and then mounted the panel on white card base using double-sided tape. Finally I added the sentiment panel & flowers using foam tape. :)

Thank you so much for stopping by. Happy crafting!!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

Altenew Build-A-Flower: Peony Blossom + Giveaway

Hello crafty friends!
This month’s Altenew build-a-flower set features a beautiful Peony Blossom. The Peony Blossom Build-A-Flower has a slightly different approach than our conventional Build-A-Flower sets. The stamp set has three five-petal flowers accompanied by a shading layer and a center layer. You may use these flowers as is, or layer them to create dimension. The matching dies will cut the flowers all the way to the edge without leaving a border. This will help in shaping the petals to the desired dimension when using a shaping tool (don’t have a shaping tool? You can use the domed end of a pen or pencil!). We included an additional flower die and stamen dies to help you create realistic blooms! Even though we named the set ‘Peony Blossom’ since the petals were loosely based on Peony petals, you can let your imagination run wild and create different types of flowers! We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Altenew Build-A-Flower: Peony Blossom

Here is what I came up with:

I stamped flower petals onto watercolour paper using Coral Bliss & Heart Beat dye inks, and then die cut them with the matching dies.
I then cut between stamped lines shown as the picture using scissors.
I added stamen on the centre of each flower using foam tape.
For the sentiment, I used the Adore You stamp set.

To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $30 gift certificate to six lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Scrapbook Blog for a chance to win. Three winners will be announced on the Card Blog, and other three winners will be announced on the Scrapbook Blog on 2/18/2018.

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

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!
