Hello Crafty Friends and Happy Fri-YAY! Today begins a new challenge month at The Beautiful Blossoms Challenge, where the FOCUS is always Florals with an Optional Mood board for inspiration. The board this month contains rich autumnal colors:
My team project this challenge features the Beautiful Blossoms Stamp Set from Altenew, and a total coincidence to the name of our challenge.
To start, I've stamped these gorgeous florals on a panel of Kraft card and heat embossed using Fine Detail Copper embossing powder. I've done a bit of coloring with Prismacolor Pencils and diluted inks.
I was careful with the amount of water I used to dilute the inks as the card panel is not paper made for taking loads of water. I've matted and adhered to the Kraft Card base. The sentiment, which is part of the set, was stamped using a deep red ink from Catherine Pooler and the strip was popped on craft foam for dimension. Lastly, a few enamel dots were added for additional interest.
Please visit us at The Beautiful Blossoms Challenge and join in. You'll definitely want to take a look at what my teamies have created, there's loads of inspiration waiting for you.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!
Donna
