Hello and Welcome wonderful crafty friends!
Today I am excited and honored to be part of the celebration for Altenew's 4th Anniversary Blog hop Day 3. I've loved Altenew from the day they first released their stamps and my love is growing ever since :)
I have two cards for you today.
Card 1: I used a mix of stamps and stencil for this card. First I used the Tree Ring Stencil to create the background. I then stamped the flowers in an ombre effect using Frosted Garden stamp set. I then die-cut it using the Frosted Garden Dies. I then stamped and embossed the word Celebrate from the Super Script stamp set and die-cut it using Super Script die set.
Finally I assembled everything together. To finish, I added the enamel dot from the New Day Card Kit.
For my next card I went to traditional watercolor. I used Build a flower: Gardenia stamp set and colored using some Daniel smith and Schminke watercolors. For the sentiment, I used the Beautiful Day Stamp set.
Your next stop on the hop is the lovely Laurel Beard .
