Altenew Let It Shine - Paint-A-Flower: Tulips

-

 

Hello,

I created this card for Altenew's AECP Project, Let It Shine.

I used the following Altenew products to create this card:

  • Paint a Flower: Tulips Stamp Set
  • Dancing Sunflowers Stamps Set (Sentiment)
  • Purple Wine Cardstock
Other products:
  • Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb. Cardstock
  • Copic Markers & Prismacolor Pencils
  • Simon Says Stamp Ultra Fine Black Embossing Powder
  • Simon Says Stamp Vellum
  • Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle Pen
  • Trinity Stamps Soapy Bubble Confetti Mix
  • Gina K. Designs Amalgam Ink


I stamped the floral image on an A2 card base cut from the Neenah cardstock and colored it with Copic markers and Prismacolor Pencils:
  • Tulips:  RV55, RV63, RV52, RV000, YR24, Y19, shaded with PC994, PC993, PC1014, PC958, PC917
  • Daisies:  C0, C1, YR24, YR23, Y26, PC943 (flower centers)
  • Purple Flowers: BV13, BV11, BV000, PC958, White Sakura Gelly Roll Pen for the centers
  • Large Berries: R43, R35, R27, Y19
  • Small Berries: R43, R32, R12
  • Tulip Leaves and Stems:  YG67, YG17, YG03
  • Berry Leaves: YG45, YG23, YG41
  • Other Leaves: YG03, YG21, YG01
After coloring the floral image I cut the panel down to 4" x 5.25" and used the sparkle pen to paint on some shimmer over the tulips and purple flowers.

To create a shiny sentiment I cut a 1" x 7.25" strip of Vellum and heat embossed the sentiment on it.  I wrapped the vellum around the floral panel, keeping the sentiment towards the left and adhering it on the back with repositionable tape.  I added seven sequins in various sizes, with the larger sequins being tucked under the vellum strip, keeping one set in a group of three and the other in a sort of triangle.

Finally, the panel was adhered to the Purple Wine A2 cardstock base with foam tape.

Thanks for stopping by!

Memory Box Cauldron Witch

  Hello!     Today I’m sharing a fun Halloween card I created with the Cauldron Witch and Fancy Gate Globe Dies from Memory Box.   To create the gate, I sprayed some Iron Gate Distress Mica Stain on a piece of black cardstock.  After it was dry I used the Fancy Gate Globe Die from Memory Box to cut it out.  Note: I used a lightweight black cardstock for the gate.  I recommend using a heavier weight cardstock so the gate won't be flimsy.   For the wall background I cut a piece of light gray cardstock down to 4.125” x 5.375”.  I used the “Small Brick Wall” stencil from My Favorite Things and ink blended some Lost Shadow Distress Ink on the gray cardstock.   I adhered the gate to the cardstock wall, about .5” up from the bottom.  I used Eclipse Masking paper to mask off the sides and I added some Black Soot Distress Ink to give the appearance of a path leading up to the gate.  I also put the stencil down again ...
