Hey everyone. I was asked by a follower if I could make a tutorial featuring the Altenew Beauty Within Simple Coloring Stencil I used last week on a card here on my blog. So here is the tutorial.
I hope I’ve made it easy for you to understand how to use this beauty stencil. All products used are link below for your shopping convenience.
Thanks for stopping by. See you back here soon.
Hey everyone. I’m sharing a quick card today using the Beauty Within Coloring Stencil 3-1. This is such a beautiful stencil and so easy to use. Pulling just a few colors of inks together and you have a beautiful card.
The colors for my card today are from Altenew. They are Rose Quartz, Puffy Hearts, Razzleberry and Honey Drizzle. For the sentiment I used Altenew Moon Rock instead of my typical black ink. I kept my card simple and used just a few yellow sequins on the card panel.
The Beauty Within Coloring Stencil 3-1 really does make some beautiful cards. Again super easy to use and think of the beautiful color combinations you could use. Check out my prior post using the Beauty Within stamp set from yesterday.
To keep the soft feel of my card I grounded my panel on Fog cardstock. The soft gray really keeps the card colorful in a neutral way. Thanks for stopping by today everyone. I’ll see you back here soon.
Hey everyone. Altenew – August 2020 Summer Nights Release is here. I’m happy to be hopping as a guest designer today. All products are live and ready for your carts.
My card today is featuring the new Beauty Within from the August 2020 Summer Nights release. This stamp set is absolutely gorgeous! I paired it with the newly released With Deepest Sympathy stamp set. For my medium I choose to watercolor the image with Altenew inks and my Karin brush markers.
The background for the card was created using the Doodled Dots Cover plate. I kept my palette all white which allowed the florals to be the main focus. Here are some close up shots of the card. For some added depth, I sponged on some buttercup ink onto the background to add a highlight behind the flowers.

Hey everyone. Today I’m sharing a card for the Altenew June 2020 Inspiration Challenge. Jaycee is picked a striking yet calm color palette. I wanted to try out florals using brown inks and this was the perfect opportunity to do so.
The Altenew Flowering Cistus was perfect for Altenew June 2020 inspiration challenge as it only has a few layers for each flower. For my color choice I used Lawn Fawn inks in Pizza Crust, Doe and Walnut. These nice shades of browns really played well together.
I really love how this card came out and it was super easy to make. That lovely background paper is from the Recollections Foil 6×6 paper pad. I ran the paper through my Next Level Woven embossing folder. Since I did not achieve an accurate stamp position in the center of the flower, I decided to cover up my error with white blizzard Nuvo Crystal Drops, plus it added a touch of sparkle.
Hey peeps. I’m back today sharing a Brea Reese trio striped alcohol ink background card. Totally in love with these inks. If you missed the first card I made using these inks you can check them out here. These inks work beautifully on yupo, legend papers and Brea Reese waterproof paper. Let me show you the card I have for you today.
To create this card I used a three colors from Brea Reese. I used orange, turquoise and medium magenta. I applied some inks on a mini blending tool in a stripe pattern. Next I dragged the tool across the Brea Reese waterproof paper to create my stripes. Look how vibrant the colors appear on this paper. It’s stunning.
I paired this gorgeous ink background with a sparkly sentiment. I pulled out my Altenew Bold Alphabet dies and glitter paper from DCWV. For added dimension I die cut the sentiment several times and glued them all together. This makes for a thicker embellishment. I layered the alcohol ink background onto bright orange card stock and then onto a white card base. For some added sparkle I used a few of my Lucy’s Card iridescent jewels. I absolutely LOVE how this card turned out.
Let me know if you would like to see more alcohol ink techniques using Brea Reese alcohol inks. These inks are a MUST have for any alcohol ink junkie! LOL Have a great day everyone. See you back here soon.
