Happy Holidays | Altenew

~ Sathya ~ Leave a comment

Hi Friends,

Am here today to share a floral card made with new supplies in my stash. The cute rose stamp set – Shrub rose is the newest addition and it clubbed with the Watercolor Hot pressed paper from Artistry by Altenew. Made this card using the colors from April inspiration challenge 2023 of Altenew for their Year in Review Challenge 2023. I have chosen Joy Dsouza’s color palette and did noline watercoloring using Artistry by Altenew’s Watercolor tubes.

Over to my card,

  • Stamped Altenew’s Shrub rose stamp on to Artistry by Altenew’s Hot pressed Watercolor paper using Ink on 3 Noline coloring ink.
  • Colored using Artistry by Altenew’s Watercolor tubes – Toluidine Red and greens from my stash.
  • The diecut panel is from Mix and Match frames from Altenew onto which the berry branches is stamped.
  • The fussy cut floral images are liberally splashed with Artistry by Altenew’s Titanium White Gouache.
  • Sentiments are stamped from same stamp set using Versafine Onyx ink.
  • The panel is added to the A2 sized top fold Olive green card base using foam adhesives.
  • Then onto which the fussy cut images are added as shown.
  • Few red enamel dots are added for interest to finish off the card.

I appreciate you stopping by.

The Flower Challenge #87 |Use Gold | Reminder | Stampendous

~ Sathya ~ 2 Comments

It’s time for the reminder card at The Flower Challenge blog with the theme ‘Use Gold’. Made a card with floral noline copic coloring with few diecuts to jazz up the card. And for the gold part, I had used gold mirror cardstock and you can use gold embossing powder, gold glitter pen, gold stickles or anything that fancies you with florals as main focus.

Over to my card,

  • For today’s card, I had taken Stampendous Cling Christmas roses stamp set.
  • Did No line coloring using Copic ciao alcohol markers.
  • Fussy cut the image and liberally splashed it with white gouache for the wintery floral look.
  • Die cut Spellbinders Petite twisted oval from a patterned paper and onto it mounted an ornate diecut of Spellbinders using Gold mirror cardstock + White cardstock.
  • The focal panel and the florals are arranged as shown in pic over the Olive green A2 sized top fold cardbase which was notched at top corners.
  • SSS Holiday words on line – Joyful wishes Die (twice cut from white cardstock) is added on top of flowers for sentiment.
  • No embellishments added so as to keep the focus on the florals.

Hope you like it!

The Flower Challenge#87 |Spellbinders | Use Gold

~ Sathya ~ 4 Comments

Hi Crafty peeps,

Am sharing today the card made for the current challenge at The Flower Challenge. This time theme is ‘Use Gold’ and as always florals are to be in focus. You can use Gold heat embossing, Gold diecuts, Gold glitter cardstocks, Gold glitter washitapes or even Gold mirror cardstock just like me for diecuts.

Over to my card,

  • This time thought to play with just diecuts. Actually a recreation of my earlier card with a bit of new additions. December is such a merry season and I would love to play with my christmas stamps, dies, white sparkly embossing powders only during that time of the year.
  • Made this lovely holiday card using dies from Spellbinders-Amazing paper grace Petite Lacy dies and Twisted Oval Elegant dies.
  • Florals aren’t colored this time rather added Fussy cut white florals from Embellishment sheets. This season called for some white florals.
  • Sentiment is added to the inner oval diecut.
  • Few pearls, enamel dots are added as accents.

Hope you like it!
