Welcome
It’s time for our new challenge at Watercooler Wednesday. This week Charlotte is hosting the “All About Occasions” Challenge.
When I saw the Winnie & Walter Challenge for World Card Making Day, WCMD 2018 | Coordinating Die Coloring Challenge with Kelly I decided to give it a go. It required a stamp with a matching die, to create a mask for ink blending.
As I only have a couple of these sets, my choice of Altnew’s Build-A-Flower: Anemone Coronaria stamp set was an easy decision. I stamped the flower and blended it using Memento Angel Pink Ink. I restamped the images once they had been inked, so they stood out a little more. Some random inked dots from W&W – Ring the Celebration stamp set finished the panel.
Once this was finished, I cut the panel with MFT Die-namics Pierced Rectangle Frame. I then layered up the frame with fun foam before attaching all the pieces to the card front.
The focal flowers was also stamped and watercoloured with Angel Pink ink before being fussy cut and layered up on the corner of the frame.
The Sentiment from Winnie & Walter The Big, the Bold and Friends Cutaways was cut from white card then white heat embossed to add some shine. This was added to a strip of vellum and then the card front. Last were a few bling features.
It is so soft and delicate IRL and I think it shows off these pretty flowers perfectly.
Please pop over to our blog and check out the great ideas from our Design Team. I hope you will join in our challenge this week.
Have a great week
Helen

This is so beautiful!! Absolutely love how you used the flower for the background and its soft colouring. And your colouring of the main flower is spectacular. The dimension of the frame adds so much interest and love all the glossy sparkle on the die-cut ‘you’. So very glad you shared this with us at The Flower Challenge!!
