Altenew Beautiful Day, and Best Mom were just a few of the excellent gifts I received. My cards today are made from these two sets and I couldn't be happier with the way they came out.
I will be entering both cards in the Altenew Inspiration Challenge
My first card was made from the Best Mom set.
It is a simple card but I love it.
I stamped in Archival black, on Bristol paper then used my new Zig Clean Color Pens to color. BoBunny's Hello (#10105761), a few sequins and some splashes. A little strip of pink card stock
along one edge and I trimmed 1/2" off the other, then popped it up with fun foam.
My second card was made using the Beautiful Day set.
I just love this stamp set. I did a splotched background of Distress ink (Squeezed Lemonade and Antique Linen) then I stamped in Archival Black. Using my Distress inks, (Barn Door, Fired Brick and Aged Mahogany) I then stamped each stage. I was using Canson Watercolor paper, which has some texture so on the first full background stamp, after stamping, I used my water brush to fill in and make the background color smooth. Then I continued with the rest of the stages. I masked the flower when it was done and stamped the leaves.(Shabby Shutters and Peeled Paint) I stamped the Hello with the Just Rite set (CL-02138) and Archival ink. Some splashes in and a few sequins, some
Sunflower yellow pearls from Queen & Comp., a matt of Colormates (Deep Berry Red) card stock
on an off white card.
Thanks for stopping by.
Have a Beautiful Day!!!
