Layering with Strength
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!
Today I’m doing some intricate layering with the beautiful “Strength Blooms” Bundle to create a simple but stunning card.
Intricate Layering…
So, the intricacy of layering with this beautiful stamp set is there are several layers that are included with the “Strength Blooms” Bundle. Each layer, from the base layer to the detail layer defines these lovely flowers and makes them come to life.
Color Palette…
I chose shades of blue from Altenew‘s “Deep Blue Seas” Ink Set for my card today! I love blue and seeing blue flowers always seem to get my attention. As you can see, these blues are stunning so I couldn’t resist making them the focal point of my project,
I started off by stamping the solid base layers and then built up my flowers layer by layer with Deep Blue Seas Crisp Dye Ink. Altenew includes a valuable layering guide with their stamp sets to make stamping the flower layers easier to line up. So don’t be afraid to try!
Blessed…
“Blessed to Have You in my Life” was stamped directly on the open space of my stamped Flower Panel with hybrid ink.
Putting it all Together…
I folded a piece of navy-blue cardstock for my card base and embossed a gorgeous floral on white cardstock. I attached it slightly off center on my card base and then attached my stamped flowers over the two layers with double-sided adhesive to give it some dimension and placed off center to the right to reveal the embossed cardstock.
Leaf by Leaf…
I created a few more leaves by distress ink blending and spattering a piece of white cardstock and then die cut it a few times, using Altenew Leaf Canopy Die. I attached in the leaves on three corners of my card and trimmed them to fit nicely along the edges.
Sparkle & Shine…
Once my card was put together, I added a few sequins, little ink splatter, and my “Layering with Strength” card was finished.
Happy Crafting…
