 Today, I'm sharing a card I made after taking the Irresistible Inking Techniques class as part of the Altenew Educator Certification Program. 

I watercoloured this Billowing Peonies outline stamp with dye inks and a water brush. I used a combination of inks from Hero Arts and Concord & 9th. I  finished off the card with a strip of rose gold glitter paper and some glittery embellishments.

You're my cup of tea for Altenew AECP - Seasonal Scene Building

Compensated affiliate links may be used - these are at no extra cost to you. I appreciate your support! 

Today, I'm sharing a masked card I made following the Seasonal Scene Building Class as part of the Altenew AECP.
The class, taught by Nichol Spohr, included cards using masking to create scenes. I used eight stamps to create this little teacup with a bunch of flowers. I stamped the rose first, then stamped it onto masking paper so I could mask off the image before continuing. Next came the smaller flowers, then the leaves, then the teacup, the handle and the saucer. Removing the masks is so satisfying! 

I coloured the image with copic markers, and added some grey shadow around the image, and underneath so that the cup looks like it is sitting on a surface rather than floating in space! I finished with a stamped sentiment.
