The Flower Challenge#93 | Birthday Card | Altenew | Pencil colouring

Hi Crafty Peeps,

Am here again to share a floral card for this month’s challenge at Flower Challenge blog. This month we would like you to make a birthday card and as always Florals are to be at focus. Made use of my beloved Prisma pencils for colouring, been missing for many months now and at last put to use.

Let’s dive into my make,

  • Did simple noline pencil colouring on Altenew Belladonna lily, which was stamped using Fade out noline colouring ink.
  • Then die cut the coloured image using co-ordinating die set.
  • Then took a A2 sized top fold Off white card base.
  • Matted it with 4″‘X5.25″ pp from Altenew Poured Acrylic 6×6 paper pack.
  • Then Altenew Linear crossroad die set is used to cut a die from white cardstock and added to the focal panel.
  • Onto it added the coloured diecut image using foam adhesives.
  • Altenew Mini Cupcake Delight Stamp and Die set used to make the ‘Happy’ die cut and ‘birthday’ sub sentiment is stamped using Altenew jet black crisp dye ink..
  • Few clear dew drops are added for accents.

Hope you like this simple card.

Noline Watercoloring | Forever in Love | Altenew

Hiya Friends!!

Happy Valentine’s Day to all my viewers and visitors here.

Whipped a quick card using my favorite Noline watercoloring. I love this stamp set called Forever in Love from Altenew for the beautiful roses and the wonderful sentiments.

Over to my card,

  • Did Noline watercoloring on the stamp – Forever in Love from Altenew.
  • Used Karin markers for coloring. These are highly vibrant juicy markers and so little colors goes a long way. I did a wet on wet coloring mostly for the larger petals and dry on wet for smaller petals.
  • Altenew’s Hot pressed Watercolor paper is the one used here and by far my favorite of all hot pressed watercolor papers I have used.
  • The focal panel is cut from Altenew’s Mix & Match Frames Die set.
  • The panel then matted over A2 sized top fold Olive green card base using foam adhesives.
  • Few heart embellishments were added as accents.

Hope you like it!
