Altenew 8th Anniversary Blog Hop Day 3 + Giveaway (over $2,000 in Total Prizes)

 Hey Crafty Friends

Congratulations to the team at Altenew on their 8th Anniversary, we are excited to be asked to be part of their celebration on Day 3 of the Blog Hop - https://wp.me/p6Dps1-fJZ.

In our Blog Hop post, we would like to feature the new Endless Florescence stamp & die set and have made 2 cards using it.

In both cards, I stamped the image on Canson Watercolour 300gsm card and coloured them with Altenew's Watercolour 36 Pan set using the colours - Coral Berry, Grapevine, Warn Sunshine Sunkissed, Autumn Blaze, Forest Glades and Espresso.  I then die cut the images using the matching die set.

The first card is a slimline card with a base of Bazzill Bahama, followed by Lily White.  On some white card, I blended Altenew's Forest Glades over it.  I then stamped the words from Endless Florescence over it using Altenew's Marshland Ink Pad.  In the top left corner, I stamped Happy Birthday from the Painted Greetings stamp set.

Lastly, I adhered the image to the card using mounting tape.

For the second card, I started with a base of Bazzill Pearl, Guacamole, Piglet and then on white card blended Coral Berry over it.  I made sure the Coral Berry is darker at the bottom and moved to be lighter at the top.

I then die cut the Dotted Tile Debossing Cover die through it for extra effect.

I added the words from 'Across the Pond' to the top centre of the card.

For the image, as this is a standard card size, I knew I would need to trim off some of the image which seemed like a waste, but I was able to tuck it behind one of the yellow flowers, in front of the Tulip stem, so it looks like it was always there.  I adhered the image to the front of the card using mounting tape.
