My card features a floral set from Altenew called Paint-A-Flower: Spider Mums.  The floral image is huge and the detail is fabulous.  The image was stamped onto water color paper then colored with Altenew's  Watercolor Essential 12 Pan set.

House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge #357 Anything Goes or Fruit

 


Hello!  I hope everyone had a great weekend and got a few minutes to get crafty.  

I couldn't resist joining the current challenge at House Mouse & Friends.  Their current challenge theme option is Fruit.  I love this older wood mount House-Mouse Designs stamp called Sleeping with Strawberries (1999 Stampa Rosa, Inc).

I have been practicing with my water coloring skills this week!  So, the image was stamped onto water color paper then water colored with the Altenew Watercolor Essential 12 Pan set.  The image was die cut then layered onto retired designer papers from Stampin' Up!  

My layout inspiration was provided by a Mojo Monday sketch.  I really do miss Julee's sketchy inspiration.  If you are interested you can check out her library of sketches HERE.

I would like to share my card with the following:

Altenew Inspiration Challenge - June

 


I loved the color combo for the June Inspiration challenge at Altenew.  I've used an image from their Color It Up! Free Coloring Page.

The digital page was printed onto X-Press It card stock and colored with alcohol markers.  I kept the design very simple with a black and white border and green twine.  Easy Peasy!

After applying a light splatter of green watercolor the panel was layered onto a black and white striped designer paper.  A gingham bow from Gina K Designs and gems complete the card.

Feels Like Home Anniversary

 

I needed an Anniversary card for my cousin and his wife.  I pulled out this Stampin' Up! set called Feels Like Home from their 2021 Sale-A-bration.  

The image was stamped with my Misti then loosely water colored with Altenew pan watercolors.  I finished by splattering green distress ink.  A few sequins and sentiment from Stampin' Up! Express Yourself hostess set finish the card.

Altenew April 2023 Inspiration Challenge

 


I very recently discovered Altenew and enjoy their lovely floral images.  They generously offer a couple of free coloring pages that can be found HERE.  My project features the free carnation color page.

The Altenew April Inspiration colors worked perfectly with the carnations.  I began by coloring with a Crimson Red Prismacolor pencil and high lighted with Raspberry.  Three different green alcohol ink markers were used for the stems/leaves.  I kept the card CAS and finished with a few enamel dots and a red panel to provide a pop of color.

Altenew Inspiration Challenge - February Color Inspiration

 


I recently came across the Altenew Inspiration Challenges.  The color inspiration this month immediately called to me!  My project features Altenew Paint A Flower:  Spider Mums.  

The image was stamped onto water color paper then water colored with Altenew Water color Essential 12 Pan set.  The image panel was layered onto SU Basic Black and Pink Passion  card stock.  I kept the image focal with a few rhinestones and a simple sentiment.

Word Art Wednesday Weeks #549 - #550

 

Welcome!  The new Word Art Wednesday challenge starts today, and our sponsor is Altenew, who are giving a generous gift of a $15 voucher to their store.

My card features a floral set from Altenew called Paint-A-Flower: Spider Mums.  The floral image is huge and the detail is fabulous.  I began stamping the image onto watercolor paper with versamark then heat embossing in white.  I then used the ink smooshing technique followed by watercolor of the flowers.

I finished the card simply with a black mat, sentiment and a few Stampin' Up! rhinestones.  This is not my typical style, but I will definitely try this again.

This week's free Word Art Scripture is available for your use.  The challenge is always anything goes with a family friendly theme.  You can enter up to 5 times each week.  We are always excited to see your creations!
