Altenew Watercolor Brush Markers Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hi!

You must be here from the absolutely fantastic TaeEun Yoo's blog!

Welcome to Altenew's Watercolour Brush Marker release.

Altenew has just released the Tropical Fiesta Watercolour Brush Markers and just like the last two times, they are AMAZING!

I usually create artsy cards during the watercolour brush marker releases but I had zero mojo when I was making my card, so I kept it simple, with not much watercolouring involved except for a flower and leaves. 

I stamped the flower from the Wallpaper Art Stamp Set in Versafine Onyx Black and heat embossed it with Crystal Clear Embossing Powder.

I used just the Desert Night Watercolour brush marker on my flower and Lava Rock Watercolour Brush Marker for the leaves.

I also used the Essential Black and White Paper pack, along with the gorgeous Silver Glitter Tape.

Isnt this stamp set gorgeous?! I did a stamp focus post for the Wallpaper Art Stamp Set in case you are interested. I also share a video that includes the cardmaking process for all the three cards I made.
You can check it out HERE.

Below is the colour swatch. Look at those gorgeous shades!

Altenew is giving away a $40 gift certificate to six lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Scrapbook Blog by Thursday, March 28th for a chance to win.

Studio Katia New Release Blog Hop + GIVEAWAY

Hi there everyone!

You must be here from the awesome Liliya Rytsar's blog.

Welcome to Studio Katia's New Release Blog Hop.

This release includes 7 new clear stamp sets, 6 sets of coordinating dies, 5 new stand-alone Creative Dies, 6 new Stencils and a new embellishment!

I will be sharing two cards with you today. First up is the gorgeous Aloha Stamp Set.

I started by adding a light colour wash to my background using two shades of green. Once that was dry, I added splatters of the same green shades and also that of black watercolour.

Next, I heat embossed the image in Ranger Princess Gold Embossing Powder and coloured it with Ecoline Watercolours.

Once the watercolour was dry, I used the coordinating dies to die cut the image and stacked it once for sturdiness. 

I heat embossed the sentiment on black cardstock with the same embossing powder and arranged both the elements in a way that they fit snuggly.

To finish, I adhered some gorgeous gold confetti.

Next up is the Star Date Stamp Set and the Large Polka Creative Stencil.

I stamped the star and it's eyes three times, separately. I then coloured these in yellow and kept them aside.

For my background panel, I first inked the panel lightly in an aqua shade and then through the Large Polka Stencil, I applied the same ink with a heavier hand to get darker polka dots.

I love how this came out! Looks like a pattern paper.

To finish, I adhered the stars on a piece of string and then to the card front with foam tape. I also applied glossy accents over the stars.

Spellbinders: Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month (March)

Hi, friends!

I am here with a gorgeous project that I love!

I hope that you will as well.

So my project today is a photo album which is 8x10 inches. I made this as a gift for someone's adorable granddaughter. 

The cover features the Amazing Paper Grace's Die of the Month for Spellbinders.

I have made handmade flowers and leaves and combined them with some store-bought mulberry flowers. The lacy die gives such a pretty touch to the cover so I chose to go with pastel shades and light colour wash background.

I even made a box for this, again decorating the lid with more gorgeous Spellbinders dies.

I hope you liked my project featuring the beautiful die by Becca Feeken! I absolutely adore her dies and they always make my projects look regal, pretty and feminine!

Thank you for stopping by!
