Autumn Florals | Altenew Inked Flora

Hey there!

I've seen a lot of white embossed flowers all over the internet for a while and was always intrigued by it. I finally decided to try it out using my favorite stamp set by Altenew - Inked Flora. I once again used autumn colors on my card inspired by the color theme at My Favorite Things Color Challenge 150.

After heat embossing the florals in white on a piece of watercolor paper, I colored them using a bunch of products like watercolors, distress inks and detailed it with my sketch pens. For the background, I used the Antique Linen distress ink to create a light wash.

After arranging the florals, I added a sentiment from Essential Sentiments by My Favorite Things and finished off the card with a few sequins.

Fall Colors | Altenew Adore You

Hello there!

It's been a while since I have posted something. The weather in my city has been changing drastically every day. We don't really experience fall but that didn't stop me from creating a fall-themed card. 

I've always loved the idea of Fall - Warm tones, Thanksgiving, Halloween, etc. Today's card features one of my recent purchases - Altenew's Adore You stamp set.

I have been trying out various coloring techniques for the last few weeks but didn't like any of them. After a hundred tries, I really loved this one and decided to use it on my card.


I decided to include warm tones for the background. Stamped the flower multiple times onto some watercolor paper by Anupam Stores. Colored the flowers using my distress inks - festive berries, spiced marmalade, and scattered straw. Used Vintage Photo Distress Ink for the background and added some gold outliner over the top to get some shine.

After gluing down the card, I heat embossed the sentiment from the Essential Sentiments set by My Favorite Things in white. Added a piece of vellum and few sequins to finish off the card.
