You're a Blessing | Altenew Inked Flora

September 20, 2020 Sidelle Menon 23 Comments

Hey There!

Today's card features once again my favorite - Altenew's Inked Flora set. I wanted to work with a different color palette and decided to make it colorful.


I stamped the flowers onto some watercolor paper by Anupam with VersaMark ink and coated it with silver embossing powder. First, I added a light wash of each color to a section of the flower. Once dried, I added a second slightly darker wash and I thought that It would suit it.
However, I wasn't happy with the result so I left it aside for a while and stamped two different sentiments - a blessing from the same set and you're by My Favorite Things onto black cardstock.
After some time, I decided to add some shading to the flowers using watercolor pencils and then a darker shade of the same color using the Itsy Bitsy Watercolor range. Finished off the card with a strip of silver glitter cardstock and a few sequins.
