Good Morning Crafty Friends!
Today I am sharing my first post as a participant in the Altenew Education Certification Program, All About Layering 3 Course. This course teaches you the easy steps of matching your images for quick and easy layered stamping. It also shares tips and card inspiration at the end of each course. I was so inspired by what I had learned throughout the tutorials that I jumped right in and started creating.
My first card applies to what I have learned in All About Layering 3 Course. I wanted to use a set that I could apply some of the techniques and tips so I decided to apply them to Altenew Beautiful Day set. This set includes a 4-step peony flower and a few leaf images and two sentiments and the coordinating dies.
I started by stamping the peony and leaf images and followed the steps for easy layered coloring. Next, I cut my images using my Scan N Cut machine, but this set also includes the coordinating dies which I recently purchased but haven't received yet. I stamped a panel of Neenah Solar White #110 with a few of the other multi-floral images in a light gray ink to give my card some detail and interest.
From there, I stamped my sentiment in Versamark Ink on Black cardstock and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I then cut out my sentiment using a sentiment strips die. I began to place my floral images on my panel with foam strips, and I placed the leaves directly to the panel with adhesive tape and added some foam dots to my sentiment. To finish off my card, I added some dark gray splatter and added a few black gems. I really love how this card turned out.
Thank you for visiting and sharing in my Altenew education journey. Please kindly leave a comment and follow me for more tips and inspiration.
