Altenew Wildflower Paper Crafting Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

 


Hello and welcome to the Wildflower Scrapbook Release.



You must be here from Raquel Bowman's blog.

I had so much fun creating cards for this hop but when don't I have fun with Altenew releases?!




I doodled outlines onto the ephemera that came with the scrapbook collection.
Then I arranged it and kept it aside. Next, I dew horizontal lines onto my card base and then adhered the ephemera onto the card front and stamped the sentiment.


My second card is a mixed media card where I used Grid Stencil and applied embossing paste. After drying the panel, I added a bit of watercolour and then add Golden Peach Embossing Powder.


It looks so gorgeous in person with all the texture and shimmer.


My last card is also a bit of on the grungy side. 


On this one too, I poured over some Golden Peach Embossing Powder selectively in some places to add some shimmer.

Hello!

You must be here from the most amazing Amanda Baldwin's blog. She has the biggest heart! If you don't follow her on Instagram, I urge you to do! She will leave you the loveliest comments!


It's such a joy working for a company you absolutely adore! And I truly love working for Altenew.

I started as a card design team member in 2017 and now I am part of the video team plus also play a huge role as a coordinator for the Altenew Educators Certification Program (AECP) since December 2018.



My card was inspired by the packaging of one of the items that Altenew will be launching soon. It would have been here but due to the production delay, we will introduce it next month. 

I stamped the flowers and leaves using the layering stamps. SHOCKER! But hey?! I did watercolor the background!

Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Cistus Layering Die Set & Gradient Cardstock Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

 

Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Cistus Layering Die Set | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

Hello and welcome to Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Cistus and Gradient Cardstock Release.

You must be here from Nichol Spohr's blog.


My card is quite "clean and simple" considering my style :)

Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Cistus Layering Die Set | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

I die-cut my flowers out of Crest Solar White Cardstock for a change.
But I did die-cut my leaves out of  the 9x12 watercolor cardstock and used the Watercolor Brush Markers to color them.

For the flowers, I used Vanilla Cream Dye Ink and the Detailed Blending Brushes to add a bit of inking.
And for my background, I used a couple of colours from the Watercolor Brush Markers.

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


You must be here from the talented Amanda Baldwin's blog. I am a big fan of hers!


You will see my card and think that I must have spent quite a bit of time colouring these flowers. But in reality, it was the die-cutting that took more time than the colouring!

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

I used the Altenew Woodless Watercolor Pencils to color these pretties including the background.

Here is a closeup to show you that I messed up die-cutting on one of the flowers but you really can't tell!
