Altenew Peony Scrolls watercolored using distress inks.

I had the Peony Scrolls stamp set by Altenew on hand, 
I thought of using them a bit differently this time, so I added stems to the flowers! 
And to make it look a bit festive and sparkly, I used gold heat embossing and Tim Holtz distress glitter.

I watercolored the flowers and the background using distress inks. 
Wrapped some gold thread, added a few sequins and I was done!

Runway Inspired



Altenew Peony Scrolls colored using Faber Castell pencils

Hello everyone!
I just saw an awesome inspiration prompt over at Runway Inspired Challenge and I had to make something. 



Here is what I made.


Altenew Peony Scrolls colored using Faber Castell pencils

I used Altenew's Peony Scrolls and Label love stamp sets.
Colored the flowers with Faber Castell classic pencils. The grayish blue panel was created using Black Soot and Chipped Sapphire distress inks.
Added a few paint splatters and sequins for the sparkle.
That's it from my side.
Have a great day!
