Altenew Storybook Fantasy Stamps/Dies/Stencils/Embossing Folders Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

 

Hello and welcome to the Altenew March Stamps/Dies/Stencils/Embossing Folders Release!

You must be here from the blog of Nichol Spohr.

My first project features the Hill Blossoms Layering Stencil Set (2 in 1) and Tall Tale Bookmark Die Set.

I don't remember exactly what inks I used, sorry about that. But I used a mix of ink families for the orange. 

And for the green, I tried to apply ink in a way that it appears shaded. 

For my background, I used the 36 pan Watercolor Set to create a textured watercolor look.

I used the Modern Swans Stamp Set on my card and paired it with the Create-a-Wreath Die Set.

After stamping, I used color pencils to add details to the swan and the lake. Additionally, I drew clouds and created a scene.

As my card front was quite plain, I added scored lines on the front for a textured look.

I stamped the image from the Fairy Tale Florals Stamp Set onto Crest Solar White Cardstock and then heat embossed it in Crystal Clear Embossing Powder. Then I used the Fairy Tale Florals Simple Coloring Stencil Set (2 in 1) and a couple of blue inks to color my images.

Next, I used the coordinating dies to die-cut the image and set it aside. 

For the background, I used Jet Black Watercolor Brush Marker to color.

I will probably share a video tutorial soon. This was a super easy card to create, especially as I didn't spend a lot of time and effort in coloring. The coloring stencils do make the work easier for you!
