Altenew March 2018 Release Blog Hop + Giveaway



Hello!
You must be here from my crazy talented friend Nina-Marie's blog.
Today Altenew is releasing 8 stencils, 5 wide washi tapes and 5 Metallic Ink Sprays!

I have three projects to share today. I will start with the Leaf Burst Stencil.

Altenew Leaf Burst Stencil - inked with Altenew Crisp Inks | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

I used Altenew Crisp Inks for inking and then with a help of black pen I outlined the design very roughly.

I added some dots here and there to add more hand drawn elements and give it a look of a stamp.

I used Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder for my sentiment. The sentiment is from Crafty Friends Stamp Set.

Second card uses the Watercolour Bouquet Stencil.

I did a bit of masking to extend my floral design. Again, I used Altenew inks for inking.

I added some doodling here as well by adding double, irregular outlines to my design.

The large hello sentiment is from Blooming Bouquet Stamp Set.

In the end I added black and blue paint splatter to look like its a real watercolour piece.

My last card features the Poppy Bloom Stencil.

I inked this using Cotton Candy and Parrot Crisp Inks.

I love that sketchy outline look. What a great way to get a whole new set of uses out of these stencils! I'm kind of terrible at the sketchy look because I want to get every little nook and cranny, but your cards have such great movement, so I think I need to loosen up a little. And your colored pencil shading on the other stencil is just gorgeous. Thanks so much for sharing!
