Altenew May 2017 Release Blog Hop & Giveaway!!!

Hello Everyone, welcome to Altenew May 2017 Release Blog Hop! If you are hopping along you should have arrived from Raquel Bowman's Blog.

To begin, I first distressed my card base with Distress ink in Peacock Feather and Twisted Citron. Then splattered some water and diluted Peacock Feather. Then stamped it with the flowers from Under the Cherry Blossom Tree stamp set.

Next, I die-cut (x4) the Cherry Blossom branch, made a square wreath, and colored them with copic. For my sentiment I used the Hello Sunshine stamp set and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. Then adhered the sentiment with foam tape for dimension.

Next, I distressed only the bottom of the card panel with Lawn Fawn dye ink in Doe. I also spattered the background, then colored the cake images from Cake Love stamp set. After coloring I also used the coordinating Cake Love die set.

The sentiment was also from the same stamp set. For added touch I added some Diamond Stickles on the images and Sparkling Clear confetti mix from Pretty Pink Posh to finish off this card.

For my last and final card, for this card I started by distressing my cardstock panel with Distress ink Twisted Citron. Next, I splattered water on the panel and gold watercolor paint. Then stamped the sentiment (Crafty friends are the best) from Crafty Friend stamp set. Next, I added some flowers from Beautiful Day stamp set as well.

I also die-cut a Pretty Pink Posh Scallop Hexagon dies and that finishes the card.

Thank you so much for stopping by.
