Hi there Crafty Friends! I hope you're all enjoying the Easter break. I've been at our Beach House for the last few days and have felt more inspired, so I've made a few cards.
My first card is for the Altenew Inspiration Challenge. This month's challenge is hosted by Joy D'Souza and she used a beautiful picture she took of a rose to inspire us...
I used lots of Altenew products to create this card. I stamped the leaves from Altenew Botanical Illustrations and gold embossed on vellum and fussy cut. The flowers from the same set were stamped with Altenew Ink and coloured with Altenew Artist Watercolor Paints. The white card was embossed with Altenew Gem Pattern 3D Embossing Folder. The sentiment is from Altenew One-Go Birthday Greetings.
My next card was inspired by the prompt at The Flower Challenge, which is to make Background Stamping and Flowers the focus. I created a Garden Scene with Penny Black Cling Stamps.
I used Karin Markers direct to the starts and spritzed liberally before stamping.
Stamp sets: Penny Black Trailing, Penny Black Farm Fresh, PB Sprinkles and Smiles
I also used som tiny Stampin up flower stamps and a butterfly stamp from Darkroom Door
I'm also sharing this card at the following challenges:-

This card is for Less is More Challenge ...
I used a gorgeous artsy stamp from AALL Create and Zig Markers for this card. Hopefully there's enough white space!

One more card to share and it is for The Global Design project where we get to 'CASE' (CASE = Copy And Selectively Edit) a beautiful card from Anne Alexander...
I made a watercolour background with Nuvo Shimmer Powders, similar to Anne's colours and die-cut the panel. Then I used die-cut flowers instead of stamping and added a stamped sentiment.
The flower dies and sentiment stamp are from Stampin Up.
I hope you like my take on Anne's card
