Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Poppy Release Blog Hop + Giveaway



Hello everyone!
Welcome to Paint-A-Flower: Poppy release!

You must be here from the Altenew Card Blog.




  Here is a look at what I created.

Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Poppy Stamp Set + Artist Markers | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

I stamped the flower with Permanent Black Ink and coloured it with Artist Markers from Set A.

Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Poppy Stamp Set + Artist Markers | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

I stamped the image directly on Crest Solar White Cardstock and for faux dimension added shading with a graphite pencil. I cut the panel out in a way that the flower overhung a bit over the glitter layer.
That glitter layer, by the way, is the gorgeous Silver Glitter Tape from the Altenew Store.

The polka dot paper is from Essential Rock Collection (6x6).
To finish, I added some dots with a black pen and on the flower center, I added some detailing with a white gel pen.
