Altenew Build-A-Flower: Peony Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

October 1, 2020

Hey everyone.   Today is the Altenew Build-A-Flower Peony release blog hop.  I’m so excited to be sharing this amazing stamp set with you today. You should of arrived here from Natalie’s blog.

Build-A-Flower Peony

For my first card today I used Pale Mauve, Amethyst and Grape Agate, Frayed Leaf and Forest Glades inks from Altenew. After I stamped the image I filled in the white background with my BV29 Copic marker. I love the striking dark contrast between the flowers and the background.

Stamping a simple thanks a bunch sentiment and adding a few gold gems on, this card was complete. I think this card is probably my favorite that I have made with this stamp set.

My second card I keep the card light and bright. The peony was stamped in Butternut, Yellow Ochre and Sicilian Amber, Frayed Leaf and Forest Glade inks.

Pulling out my Copic makers again, I colored the bottom half of the car with my BG32 marker. Once I had complete coverage, I stamped a sentiment in Sicilian Amber ink. To keep the color combo going, I used that same maker and YR24 to make little small dots along the top portion of the card.

    Love this set. I like the change up in media, stamping to copic, and the effect used was nice. Gives the Peony center stage. Both cards very nice.

Afternoon friends. I'm back with a card layering u Afternoon friends. I'm back with a card layering up my @heroarts bold prints. I love the look for texture on cards and by using two great bold prints, I created this beauty. A good tip to layering your bold prints, keep it simple! If your bold prints are too busy, layering them will be difficult. 

For my card I used the Hero Arts Ginkgo Leaves and Positive Script bold prints. The script bold print is small enough that it doesn't overpower the leaves. And you don't have to be perfect with the script either as you are just giving the look for words not something that needs to be readable. Perfect match in cardmaking heaven.

You can find all the products I used on the blog today including this beautiful sentiment you see on my card. (it's one that speaks to my heart). Link is in the bio. Have a wonderful day everyone.
