The Flower Challenge#79 | Focus on Background Stamping | Reminder | Altenew

~ Sathya ~ 4 Comments

Hi Friends,

It’s time for the reminder post for the ongoing challenge at The Flower Challenge blog. The focus is on background stamping. So what are you waiting for? Take out all those teeny tiny small stamps and make a patterned paper look on the background of your card. Yeah that’s what exactly I did today.

Over to my card,

  • Took a sheet from White Neenah solar crest cardstock.
  • Stamped small floral bunches from Altenew Beautiful Day stamp set in an aesthetic way all over the sheet.
  • Colored these tiny stamps using Copic Ciao markers.
  • Matted over a lavender slimline card base using liquid adhesive .
  • Stamped sentiment from Altenew Sentiment stamp 2 using Altenew cube ink.
  • Die cut using Featured sentiments Die set and mounted as shown using foam squares.
  • Added few yellow enamel dots as accents.

Hope you like it!
