Build-A-Flower: Cattleya + GIVEAWAY


Altenew Build-A-Flower: Cattleya | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

Hello!
Today Altenew released their newest Build-A-Flower: Cattleya.
How stunning is this?!

Altenew Build-A-Flower: Cattleya | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

For my card, I stamped the outline image in black, did a bit of masking and stamped the image a few more times to make a fuller border.

Next, I stamped in the layers. For the pinks I used Cherry Blossom Oval Inks and for the purples I used Shades of Purple Oval Inks.

After I was done stamping the layers, I took Ocean Waves and Sea Glass Artist Markers to colour my background. I kept the colours dark on the top right and reduced the concentration diagonally.

In the end, I added a few black paint splatters and stamped the sentiment.
I loooove this new stamp set. I have used it on another project and I will be sharing that with a video on the Altenew blog on 7th. Don't forget to check it out.

I hope you liked my card, I really do!

Erum,
I love the shades of purple on the blue background So pretty and really highlights this gorgeous flower stamp.

This is so lovely. I really thought that background was some kind of pre-printed paper or somehow separate from the flowers, because your blending was so perfect. Thanks for sharing this lovely piece with us!
