Dahlia Time

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog. I’m back after a short break for Spring Break. I have floral card today, using colors from the current Altenew Inspiration challenge. 

I recently got some new goodies from Altenew. Among those were the Timeless Sands and Darling Dahlia. I die cut the dahlias in pink and adding some inking on the center. For the background, I chose Deck Planks 3D embossing folder. I arranged the sand timer and the flowers and leaves on it and adhered them down. The colors are from the current Altenew Inspiration Challenge. 

What do you think? Please do let me know. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day.

Magenta Asters

Bird on the Window

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog. Today I have a window shaker card.

 

I used the HoneyBee Stamps - Lovely Layers - Seasonal Frame for this card. I die cut the window, the vine, the bird and the flowers and layered them. I embossed the background with Altenew - Brick Wall 3D embossing folder. For the shaker, I used sequins from my stash.

Asters

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog. Today I have a different fold card, more like 3 dimensional. 

This card is inspired by Liz Ortiz’s card on the Altenew Fan Group on Facebook. I made it to fit A2 card. It folds flat, but becomes hexagonal shaped. I used the Altenew - Deck Planks 3D Embossing Folder for the background. I die cut the Altenew - Bright Blooms die set in light cardstock and added some shading with copics. The leaves are from Altenew - Sulfur Cosmos die set. I decided to add a shaker element to the card as well. 

Hope you can see the dimension in this picture. Since there’s no ‘inside’ to write messages, I prettied the back and added the diamonds from the Altenew - Fine Frames die set for a space to write message. 

I used the colors from Altenew inspiration challenge. 

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!

Comfy Chair

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog. Today I have a very new-to-me type of card. 

I used the Altenew - Tufted Chair stamp and colored it with copics and fussy cut it. I also stamped, colored and fuzzy cut the Altenew - Monstera in a Vase stamp. For the background, I embossed a white cardstock piece with Crisscross Blooms and a grey cardstock with Deck Planks, all from Altenew. I arranged them to look like a room and adhered them. I used the colors from the current Altenew Inspiration Challenge.

Flower and Lantern

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog. Today I have another floral card with a shaker lantern. 

I die cut the Altenew - Floral Acanthus die and embossed the pieces with the Floral Acanthus Embossing Folder. It doesn’t fit exactly, but after embossing, I used a scissors to trim off the excess from the die cuts and I colored them with copics. I die cut the piece from Altenew - Decorative Enamel die with rose gold cardstock. I die cut a few more from white cardstock and cut out all the pieces from the center to get just the frame for shaker. I used some tiny die cuts from the same rose gold cardstock for the shaker bits. I embossed the grey background with Altenew - Crisscross Blooms embossing folder - it has become a favorite of mine this week. I used the colors from the current Altenew Inspiration Challenge.

Floral Ring Shaker

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog. Today I have a floral card with a circle shaker. 

I die cut the Altenew - Floral Acanthus die and embossed the pieces with the Floral Acanthus Embossing Folder. It doesn’t fit exactly, but after embossing, I used a scissors to trim off the excess from the die cuts and I colored them with copics. I used the Altenew - Fine Frames Circle die set to die cut the rings with rose gold cardstock and created a shaker with the rings and vellum and some tiny die cuts as the shaker bits. I embossed the black background with Altenew - Crisscross Blooms 3D embossing folder and arranged and adhered all the elements on it. I love the look of coral on the black background. I used the colors from the current Altenew Inspiration Challenge.
