Sending Love & Hugs | Altenew Adore You

Hey there!

For a very long time, I have been meaning to try coloring images by ink blending using distress inks. I finally got my hands on the distress ink sponges and decided to make this card.

I blended out the picked raspberry, salty ocean, and mowed lawn distress inks onto some scrap white paper. Next, I heat embossed a bunch of flowers and leaves from the Altenew Adore You stamp set over the blended backgrounds.

I sprayed some water to get a nice effect and fussy cut all the elements. I had this lovely die-cut that I got from ShylaShree through a giveaway and put that in the center of my card.

It took me some time to arrange the flowers to get the final look and once I was pleased with it, I stuck it to the card base using some foam tape. Added the sentiment from the Essential Sentiments stamp set by My Favorite Things and finished off the card once again with a few sequins.

I'm entering this card for the following challenges:
