Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Lotus Outline Stamp Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($200 in Total Prizes)

 


Hello and welcome to the Paint-A-Flower: Lotus blog hop.

You must be here from Sandhya's blog.


I wanted to give the underwater plants a glow-in-the-dark kind of a look. And I think I did achieve it somewhat. The colouring may look a little messy but it looks great in person. And you know me, I disapprove of my work right away if I think its not worth it. But this one looks really cool in person. 


As you can see, I tried to create a halo effect for the elements that are under the water but I coloured everything that's above the water normally.
This took me a while to do but it looks so cool with so many colours in the form of splatters. If you look at the base carefully, you will be able to see blue, brown, rust, and shades of green.
I hid my fish though LOL You can still spot them :)

Altenew 8”x11” Majestic Bouquet Stamp Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($200 in Total Prizes)

 


Hello and welcome to the Majestic Bouquet Blog Hop!

You must be here from the talented LauraJane's blog.


I have one card to share with you.



I stamped you guys! No colouring! Only stamping. Took me ages! LOL
I was regretting it! It would have been so much faster if I had just watercolor the image. 



Still, I added those hand-drawn lines I usually add behind my floral arrangements. 

This Majestic Bouquet is a HUGE stamp! HUGE! And oh-so-gorgeous!

Altenew Exotic Garden Stamps/Dies/Stencils/Embossing Folders Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

 


Hello and welcome to the Altenew Exotic Garden Stamps/Dies/Stencils/Embossing
Folders Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

You must be here from Svitlana Shayevich's blog.

I have a few projects to share with you so I will keep this short and just link the products.

I actually got confused between two releases and I thought I was creating cards for two separate releases where in fact I was only creating for one!


The project features the Tropical Jungle Stamp Set and the Coordinating Die Set.


The background for this card turned out so cool. I shared it on my Instagram for Kathy Raccoosin's colouring challenge.



I used Watercolor Brush Markers to colour the background and the images.





The card features the Simply Spring Stamp Set.


I used Woodless Watercolor Pencils to color the image.



The card features the Simply Spring Stamp Set. And just look how different it looks here!


Kept it super simple and it looks gorgeous!


I was having fun creating boutique cards! So here is another one, featuring the Enchanting Beauty Stamp Set.


I did add a few gold splatters to this one!




My watercolour card features the Enchanting Beauty Stamp Set.


This looks mesmerizing in person! The texture, sparkle, and the gradation of colour is all so gorgeous!!


Now onto the embossing folders.


I have swiped the Altenew gold ink pad over it.



I adorned it with gems. It kinda looked very traditional so I popped the Eid Mubarak sentiment on it!



The card features Monstera Leaves 3D Embossing Folder. I used gold foil over it.


The card looks so classy and chic in person!


Lastly, again, I used the Monstera Leaves 3D Embossing Folder.


This time I used markers to colour over the panel.
