Hello!
Altenew has released another round of wonderful stamps, dies and stencils! Be sure to check out the Altenew Blog today for all the details and to start the blog hop if you did not start there. You can see the entire collection HERE! I’m creating a card today using the new Poppy Garden stamps. It’s a beautiful stamp set!
Believe it or not, I only used two colors on this card. I watercolored with Daniel Smith Watercolors in Rose Madder Permanent and Sap Green. Well…I did use a tad of black and orange paint for the centers of the flowers (Neutral Tint and New Gamboge).
Before painting, I stamped and embossed my images with gold embossing powder over Arches Cold Pressed Watercolor Paper. After heat-setting, I started with the Rose Madder Permanent paint. With wet paint on my brush, I started in the corners of each petal and applied it directly to the paper. Then with a clean, damp brush, I dragged the color out towards the outer edges and continued to add color where I wanted it darker. I continued this until I was done painting and then did the same with the leaves and floral centers.
When I was done painting, I die-cut my images and arranged them over my “greige” cardstock and splattered it with white and black inks. I stamped my sentiment in the upper right hand corner and then embellished my card with some clear confetti.
I hope you liked this card! Be sure to hop along for your chance to win a prize!
