To make my card I started by blending some Lavender Fields ink on to the bottom of a pre folded card base. I used a large Altenew blending brush to apply the ink, fading out towards the top right side of the card. Once the ink was dry I adhered two different Altenew washi tapes to the left hand side.
I stamped the layered images from the Sweet Rose Bouquet stamp set using purple and green Altenew inks. For the final detail layer I heat embossed in gold.
I played around with the arrangement of the flowers leaving a space for the sentiments then adhered the images. I used scissors to cut any overhanging pieces. I then stamped my sentiments in Obsidian black ink. These are from the paint-A-Flower Coral Sunset and Paint-A-Flower Anemone stamp sets.
Thanks for hopping along. I am the last stop in the hop. You should have now gone full circle. If you have arrived here from elsewhere Head to the Altenew Blog to start hopping along.
Thanks for dropping by.
