Altenew 3rd Anniversary Blog Hop

Hello and welcome everyone, Joni here sharing some inspiration for Altenew’s 3rd Anniversary Blog Hop!

You should have arrived from Carissa’s Blog, but if you get lost, there is a complete line up list so you can stay on track during the blog hop HERE.

For this project I used Altenew Garden Treasure stamp set and Garden Treasure die set.  I also used Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Borders 2 dies and Sparkling Clear Confetti Mix.

To begin, I first stamped the images from Garden Treasure stamp set I only used the lined images and colored them with Copic Markers. After coloring I then used the Garden Treasure die set to die-cut each images.

Next, I distressed my card base with Tim Holtz Distressed Ink pads in Evergreen Bough and Crushed Olive. Then, used one of the scallop border from Stitched Borders 2 dies. I die-cut the top and bottom of the panel.

Next, I spattered some white gold watercolor paint from Gansai Tambi Starry Colors. Then, once it dried I adhered the flowers with foam tape for dimensions.

Here’s the final look of the card.

Let’s continue celebrating with your next stop at———> Meghann’s Blog
