Altenew Modern & Edgy Stamps/Dies/Stencils/Embossing Folders Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

 

Hello and welcome to the Altenew August Release.

You must be here from the amazing Jenny's blog.

I have quite a few cards to share with you and if I hadn't fallen sick, I would have made more. I was truly inspired!

My first card features the Inky Lily Stamp Set.

I used this stamp a little differently to show you the versatility of this set.

For my second card, I used the Spoon Daisy 3D Embossing Folder. 

To highlight the embossed design, I used the new Mixed Media inks, the Summer Afternoon Pigment Ink Bundle. I also used the new Fancy Hugs Die.

My next card also features the Fancy Hugs Die and the Glacier Caves Pigment Ink Bundle.

The 3D Embossing Folder featured on my blue card is called Rosy 3D Embossing Folder.

My next card features the Linear Life: Daydreams Stamp Set which I paired with the Woven Stripes Stamp Set and the new Essential Black & White Enamel Dots.

I had fun creating this and esp coloring the image. I also love the grungy look I was able to achieve with the Permanent Black Ink for the Woven Stripes Stamp.

I kept the next card simple. this one features the Fresh Bloom Stamp Set.

I used color pencils to color the image and also Essential Black & White Enamel Dots.

Love how this one turned out!

The cards feature the  Linear Life: Daydreams Stamp Set.

I used colour pencils to colour the image and then some rainbow watercolor for the background. If you noticed, I also added polka dots to her top.

Spellbinders Clear Stamp of the Month - November

 

Hello there everyone!! 

The lovely people at Spellbinders sent me their first Clear Stamp of the Month to play with. 

On Pale Grey Cardstock, I stamped the image directly in black ink. I stamped the Poinsettias and smaller flowers separately and colored them in alcohol markers. Then I fussy cut them and set them aside.

I coloured the leaves and berries on the card front in white using a Polychromos pencil. Then I added a lot of fine splatters onto the panel. Next, I adhered the fussy cut florals with foam tape.

To finish, I added some pearls, shadows, and gel pen details.

The two of the cards that I am sharing now are my failed attempts.

But I wanted to share them anyway.

So I coloured the gem in "Crystal-like" colours so to speak. But I think I should have gone with black or maybe silver outline stamping instead of heat embossing the image in gold. It just doesn't look right!

I used a mix of Polychromos and Prismacolors to colour the image.

Add a ton of metallic splatters for my magical background.

I tried to tone it down and move it to white cardstock.

Didn't make much difference :/

Well, at least one looks nice enough! :)

Thank you for stopping by!

Hi there everyone!

Welcome to Altenew Stand-alone Dies Release!

You must be here from Kelly Griglione's blog.

I have one project to share with you featuring the Burlap Texture Die.

I stamped the base layer of Fabulous Florets in Fresh Lemon Dye Ink then went with the Pinkalicious Dye Ink for the second layer. Next, I used a red and a pink Prismacolor pencil to add details for the petals. For the flower centers, I used Artist Markers in browns and a black pen.

For the leaves, I used Milk Chocolate and Almond Butter Dye Inks. I also added pencil details to the leaves using various shades of brown.

Before adhering the Burlap Texture die-cut in kraft, I added a light colour wash of Espresso Watercolor from the 36 Pan Set. 

I adhered all images on foam tape. The sentiment is from Sentiment Strips 2 Stamp Set.

Pinkfresh Studio October Release Blog Hop

Hello everyone!

Welcome to Pinkfresh Studio's October release.

The card that I am sharing today features the Fancy Blooms Stamp Set and Do All Things With Love Die.

I stamped the flowers in a way to create a border. I coloured the image and the background with Prismacolor pencils. I tried to keep the background darker where the floral border is which goes lighter as we move up toward the sentiment.

When I was done colouring, I added a few black splatters and then popped up the die cut as my sentiment. This, I covered with glossy accents.
