You are amazing

Hello,

Here is a card made using the stamp set 'Wall Paper Art' from Altenew. I love the big flowers since they are perfect for water coloring.

I stamped the flowers onto watercolor paper with Antique linen distress ink and colored the images with Zig Clean Color brush pens. I cut them with the co ordinating dies.

I took another piece of watercolor paper and created the background and splattered blue and brown colors. I adhered the die cut elements and added a few copper-colored sequins. 

 I stamped the sentiment on a dark blue piece of cardstock with versamark and embossed it with white embossing powder.

I hope you liked my card. Till next time - Happy crafting!

Special to Me

Hi!

Today I am sharing a card made using the digital stamp I won at the 'Flower Challenge'. I have used Rachel Vass 'Special to Me' stamp set for today's card.

First I arranged the digital images for a 5 x 7 box in word doc. and printed it grayscale on to watercolor card stock. I have used Arches cold-pressed 300gsm watercolor paper. I then colored the image with Zig color brush pens. I have used different colors since it is spring and nature is a riot with colors.

I colored the background also with gray color and added a splatter of black and white colors. I printed the sentiment on vellum cardstock and folded one end and stuck it on the backside. I trimmed the colored image and layered it with green card stock and then added it to my card base which is 5 x7. I added a few enamel dots to finish the card.

Hope you liked my card. 

Till next time - stay home, stay safe and craft more!

You make my heart bloom

Hi there,

Here is a simple card I made using The Ton stamps - Peony close up background stamp.

I stamped with Versamark and heat embossed using silver pearl embossing powder from Ranger. I colored using Zig Clean color brush pens.

I took a cream colored card base measuring 6" x 6". I trimmed the colored image and layered it with Olive green cardstock and adhered it to the front of the panel. I added a few clear drops.

I stamped the sentiment from Altenew Oriental Orchid stamp set with Versafine black ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. I layered the sentiment with the same green CS and adhered it to the panel.

Hope you liked my card. Linking this to the following challenge:

Card with Altenew 'Adore You' stamp.

Hi there,

After a long time I am back with coloring, which I enjoy especially with Altenew stamps. So I got my hands on the 'Adore You' stamp set recently, (better late than never 😄) and used it for my card.

I planned to use my Zig color brush pens. so I stamped the image with Archival black ink onto a Canson watercolor paper. I masked and stamped the images.

I offset the panel and layered with mauve color cardstock and mounted it on the card base. The sentiment is from Altenew Oriental Orchid stamp set. I finished off with splatter of black color and few enamel dots.

Hope you liked my card. Linking this card to Altenew August Challenge.
