September Inspired

Hi, I'm back with a couple of cards I made for the Altenew September Inspiration Challenge. You may wonder why there are two cards. I usually make at least 2-3 cards at the same time. If there are any boo-boo's then I still have at least one good one to share. For the background, I inked up a new Altenew stencil with Sea Breeze and then stamped with Watercolour Frames with the same colour. I based the design on the first card on the current Fusion Card Challenge sketch. Thanks for dropping by!

August Inspired

I have a card to share using inspired by the Altenew August Inspiration challenge. I had just received happy mail from Altenew and couldn't wait to stamp up the Arabesque Medallion stamp set! I made two cards using different card stock and Altenew inks, the second one is on watercolour card. I prefer the first one as the colours are crisper. Thanks for dropping by!

A bit of Embossing

Hi there! I'm back with another card using the Hero Arts July kit. I added a bit of embossing for the A Blog Named Hero's Embossing challenge. I used Distress Oxide ink for the background and the flowers were coloured with Zig Clean Colour markers. I then over-stamped the mason jar with Versamark and heat embossed both the jar and the sentiment. A bit of Wink of Stella and sequins were added for the added sparkle.

Materials
Stamps - Hero Arts July kit
Inks - Distress Oxide (part of the kit), Zig markers
Others - Hero Arts Brass EP, Wink of Stella
