Layering & Heat Embossing

Hello Friends!

Welcome back to my Studio! I’m so glad you are here!

Altenew AECP…

I’m so happy to be back again with another fabulously fun project for the Altenew’s Educator Program!

For this project I am working on layering & heat embossing.

Crown Bloom Flowers…

I decided to work with Altenew’s “Crown Bloom” Stamp & Die Bundle for this project.

This is beautiful stamp set was a joy to work with.

Color Palette…

I chose a vibrant blue color palette to make these beauties pop.

I started off by stamping the outline images with embossing ink and then covered them with Altenew’s gorgeous “Rose Gold” Embossing Powder and heat them thoroughly with my heat gun.

Layering…

Once all my stamped images were embossed, I began to stamp the detail layers of the Crown Bloom Flowers with Altenew‘s Deep Blue Seas Crisp Dye Ink

I also stamped the leaf detail layers with Altenew‘s with Nature’s Wonders Crisp Dye Ink.

Coloring…

I also stamped and heat embossed the little blooms and buds that are a part of the “Crown Bloom” Stamp Stamp Set, but I colored them with various coordinating colors of alcohol ink markers.

Putting it All Together…

Because these gorgeous flowers are fairly large, I decided to create a slimline card so I could separate them to showcase their beauty. I set them on opposite corners on white cardstock that I die cut and splattered with watercolor droplets.

I finished up my card by stamping a sentiment from Altenew‘s Whimsical Flowers & Quotes Stamp Set and mounted my panel to a piece of aqua textured cardstock using double-sided adhesive for dimension.

Embellies…

A little metallic thread and a few gold sequins and my layering and heat embossing project was finished.

Happy Crafting…
