Floral Cluster & Background Stamping | Card

Hello everyone,
I have a new card to share after a long time. I made this card using a couple of stamp sets from Altenew. I have also done pencil colouring on the florals. Here's a look at what I have made:

I started by stamping some solid floral images from the Golden Garden set by Altenew on Neenah Solar White 110lbs cardstock. I just picked up few random images and stamped them using Sea Glass ink.

Next, I started working on the main focal of my card. I stamped the flowers from the Wild Hibiscus set on white cardstock using Versafine Onyx Black ink, coloured them using Prismacolor pencils, and then fussy cut them out.

The foliage is from the Golden Garden set by Altenew. I stamped the leaves and fillers on white cardstock, lightly coloured them, and then fussy cut them out and arranged it on my card panel.

The sentiment has been heat embossed in white on black cardstock, and is from the Amazing You set. I love the sentiment and think it is very encouraging.

The little rose on the bottom is from the Amazing You set again. I have tried to do some shading on it, though I definitely need to get better at colouring! I also added some black enamel dots to complete my card design.

I popped the flowers and some of the foliage on foam dots for dimension. Here's a closer shot:

I matted the card panel onto some pink cardstock, and then finally adhered it on an A2 white card base. Here's my finished card!

I created this card to play along with this month's Altenew Inspiration Challenge. The colours for this month's challenge are very soft and pretty, and I wanted to create something using them.

I hope you liked today's card. Let me know what you think of it! Thank you so much for stopping by :)

Leading Lady | Post Four

Hello everyone,
Today is my final post as a Leading Lady this month on the Winnie and Walter blog. I am really honoured to have been given this opportunity and I had so much fun working with their old and new releases to create cards and other projects. Today, I have two cards to share and I've gone floral all the way :D

For my first card, I have used the flower from the In Bloom : Elsa's Flora set. I lightly coloured it using Peacock Feathers Distress ink and did my shading using Prismacolor pencils.

The leaves, berries and the entire foliage is also from the In Bloom: Elsa's Flora stamp set. I wanted to go with a monochromatic look by highlighting only the colour of the flowers against the grey background so I coloured my leaves and other foliage in grey. 

I also added a pop of colour here and there by adding the stamped and fussy-cut berries. If you see closely, I have also done some light yellow stenciling using the Do You See What I See Creative Screening.  The sentiment banner is from the The Big, the Bold and the Extras stamp and die set. I finished off the card by adding few black paint splatters and silver sequins. 


Moving on to my second and last project.

This card has a riot of things going on. Haha :) It's a rather full design and I tried to do something different. I love the way the colours pop against the black background!
I have used the flowers and leaves from the In Bloom: Anna's Flora and In Bloom: Renee's Leaves. I stamped the images on watercolour cardstock using Versafine Onyx Black ink and did loose watercolouring using various shades of Distress inks. I fussy-cut the images and have popped some using foam-dots while others are stuck directly on the card  panel.

For the sentiment, I have heat embossed the word 'thankful' from the Happiest of Holidays stamp set and the 'for your friendship'  is also from the same set. The butterflies have been die-cut using the Audrey's Cutaways die set and watercoloured. The sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh.

I added some white paint splatters to make the look more bold and dramatic :)

So with that, we come to an end to this post. I had a wonderful time sharing my projects and hope you liked them too. I would love to hear what you think of today's cards :)

Thank you so much for dropping by! I have a $30 gift card to give away to the w and w store.

Have a nice day everyone!
