The Flower Challenge#91 | Colour your Flower | Reminder | Altenew

Hiya Friends,

Am back here today to share a floral card for the midway point of the current challenge at The Flower Challenge . Did Noline watercoloring, which is my super favorite way of coloring next to pencil coloring.

Over to my card,

  • Stamped Rock Trumpet outline stamp set from Altenew using InkOn3 Fadeout Ink to attempt Noline watercoloring.
  • Watercolored using Artistry by Altenew’s Watercolor tubes.
  • Trimmed the card to 5.5×4.25″ and scored the card as shown.
  • Stamped the sentiment in Jet Black cube dye ink from Altenew.
  • I gave a subtle wash of colors to define the floral sprig.
  • Then splattered the white ink liberally .
  • Few green enamel dots added as accents.
  • This is mounted onto a white A2 sized top fold card base.

Hope you like this simple card.

Do hop to our Flower Challenge Blog to see the wonderful projects churned by our Awesome Team mates.

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Crafting!

These colors are inspired from current Altenew’s Challenge.

South Indians call their Mother as AMMA, and I grew up with my granny and lovingly call her MA. These words are SO much filled with emotions and must say, all my Creative Streaks are from both of them! Today’s card is dedicated to to them.

Over to my card,

My card features Pond Flowers Die Set.

Other products are:

Artists’ markers (Alcohol markers)

Poured Acrylics 6×6 paper pack

Fine Alphabets Die Set

Sentiment Strips 2 Stamp set

Framed Sentiments Die Set

Mix & Match Frames Die Set

I have die cut the pretty florals using Pond flowers Die set from coloured cardstocks and added depth and shadows using Artists’ Alcohol markers. Included white gel accents on leaves and floral die cuts for added interests. Created a shaker card using patterned paper from Poured Acrylics 6×6 pack for the Pond Die cut and added heart shaker elements with a frosty thick acrylic sheet on top to the pond die cut.

The word AMMA is also from the same patterned paper (used for the pond) using Fine Alphabet Die. All the florals and Word die cuts are assembled on top as shown here. The green focal panel is from same pp pack and its diecut using Mix & Match Frame Die set. It’s added using strong liquid adhesive. Sub sentiment is stamped on to pp and die cut using Framed Sentiments Die set and added just below the word AMMA. The focal panel is then added to the Off white card base to finish off the card.
