Altenew: Floral Thank You Card

Hello crafty friends, I hope you had a wonderful weekend!
I’m just popping in to share with you today my floral “Thank You” card using the Adore You stamp set and the Creative Edges: Lace die – These two are my favourites!!

I started by stamping flowers and leaves from the Adore You set randomly onto watercolour paper panel using VersaFine Vintage Sepia pigment ink, and then sentiments under the stamped images using VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink.
I brushed over the stamped images with clean water first, and then coloured them with watercolours.
I roughly watercoloured all the stamped images. This is a very exciting way to paint outlined flowers!

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

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

Altenew: Valentine’s Day Card

Hello crafty friends, happy weekend!
I’m just popping in to share with you my pink Valentine’s Day card using the newly released Altenew die sets – Spring Shower Cover die, Caps Bold Alphabet die set, and Create-A-Wreath die set.
To create the card, I die cut the Spring Shower Cover from watercolour paper, and then lightly brushed on the floral panel with Tattered Rose Distress ink. I die cut the word “XO” from a separate watercolour paper using the Caps Bold Alphabet die set, then watercoloured the letters with Festive Berries & Picked Raspberry Distress inks and a wet paint brush. I die cut leaves from glitter gold card stock using the Create-A-Wreath die set. Before mounting the floral panel & all other elements, I ink blended on a white card base with shades of pink – it’s the perfect shade to wear for Valentine’s Day, right?! :D

Altenew January 2018 Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello crafty friends! Welcome to the Altenew January 2018 Release Blog Hop! Here are the new and (of course) fabulous products we have in January!! If you arrived here from Erum Tasneem’s blog you are on the right track!

For my first two cards, I used the Creative Edges: Lace die and the Rose Flurries 3D die set. As soon as I saw the Rose Flurries 3D, I completely fell in love with it! I’m sure you’ll like it, too.
I die cut A2 sized rectangle panel from white card stock, then die cut from the right side of the panel using brand new Creative Edges: Lace die. For the flowers, I die cut them from coloured card stocks using the Rose Flurries 3D die set, then made a bunch of flowers.
For my second card, I used glitter gold flowers on navy card base!! It’s simply beautiful and elegant!

The new sentiment “Thinking of You” die is so gorgeous!! First, I made a floral background using the Flower Arrangement stamp set. Next I die cut the “Thinking of You” from the centre of the stamped panel. I stacked 4 other die cuts under the stamped sentiment cut using fine tip glue pen. After mounting, I lightly coloured the sentiment with Tattered Rose Distress ink and water brush.

Flora & Fauna: Sending good vibes

Hello crafty friends, happy Monday!
I want to share with you my fun watercolour card today with some Flora & Fauna stamp sets: Love Bug, Winter Aviary, You Me and Tea sets.

I started by stamping “driving friends” from brand new Love Bug set on watercolour paper, watercoloured it with Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel, and then fussy cut it out. For making floral background, I stamped cute flowers & leaves from two Winter Aviary & You Me and Tea sets on the top & bottom of watercolour paper panel using VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink, loosely watercoloured them with Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel as well. I added more watercolours using Festive Berries Distress ink.
Once the floral panel was completely dry, I mounted it on top-folded white card base using double-sided tape, and then added the “driving friends” cut on the centre of the card front using foam tape. I added the sentiment banner as if the personalised number plate. :D
Sending you good vibes!
