You are Precious : Dainty Bouquet | Altenew

~ Sathya ~ Leave a comment

 Hi All,

Am here to share the card that I made especially for Altenew Current Challenge. 

This time gone for a totally CAS with no pencil coloring or Watercoloring. Altenew’s Dainty Bouquet stampset is one of my absolute favorite for its breezy, springy feel. The layering guide is so helpful to play with the Layering stamps. 

Highly inspired by Laurie’s Inspiration card and went for a subtle stamping and layered stamped look.

Over to my card,

  • Stamped Altenew Dainty Bouquet onto a white cardstock using Altenew Limestone cube ink.
  • Layered the floral parts using Altenew Coral Berry and Ruby Red cube ink.
  • Layered leafy sprig using Altenew Frayed Leaf and Forest Glades Cube Ink.
  • Sentiment is then stamped from Altenew Remember This stampset using Altenew Industrial Diamond Cube ink.
  • Foam mounted the focal panel after die cutting it with A2 stitched die.
Hope you like simple CAS look of my card.

You are Amazing | Peony Floral | Uniko

~ Sathya ~ 5 Comments

 Hi Friends,

Am here today with a floral card again. This time tried to use some muted tones and kept me away from darker tones a lot.

Am a Mixedmedia artist at heart who loves loads of textures and layering. But here I have kept a clean and simple design using a watercolored floral as a focal point. Noline coloring technique is my only way to color as stamped lines makes me blank always. 

Uniko’s Peony florals stampset is my most favorite stampset and I have played several times earlier. Check here, here, here, here.

Over to my card,

  • Stamped Uniko Peony florals onto Arches CP Watercolor paper using Antique Linen DI for Noline watercoloring.
  • Used Prima The classics watercolor pan set for this card.
  • The floral is then fussy cut and kept aside to prepare the loose watercolored bg onto Arches HP using the left over paints.
  • Diecut using MFT stitched Rec Stax die.
  • Stamped the sentiment form Uniko Just because stamp set using Mudra Mai jet black ink pad. 
  • Liberally splashed white acrylic paint splatters over the fussy cut floral and foam mounted onto the watercolored focal panel.
  • Then its foam mounted onto Cairo cream A2 sized top fold cardbase.
  • Finally few dew droplets are added for interest.
Hope you like it!
