Hello – (Altnew – Pair-A-Flower Watercolor Challenge 2022)

Hello and welcome

I’m here with an entry into Altnew’s Pair-a-Flower watercolor challenge for 2022.

I had lots of fun playing with Altnew’s Build-A-Poppy stamp set.

I was inspired by some beautiful poppies I fell in love with.

After stamping the flowers were watercoloured using Altnew Brush Markers and then fussy cut.

The background it Altnew- Enchanting Vines 3D Embossing Folder. After the blackcardstock was embossed I rubbed Brilliance – Lightning Black ink pad across to give a subtle hint of gold with a little sparkle.

A strip of vellum was added along the side before the flowers were arranged across the front and added with raised tape.

The sentitment is a gold Altnew’s ‘Hello’ die raised up with 3 layers of die cuts.

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit.  I love to read your comments and will be sure to check out your blog.

I hope all is going well for you all! Stay safe!

Cheers

Helen

I live in sunny Queensland, Australia with my husband and daughter. Since I was a child, I have always loved to create and have enjoyed all kinds of crafts, sewing and painting. China painting helped develop my understanding of colour and design. Over the last few years card making has taken up a major part of my crafting time as I love to play with new techniques and mediums. Since beginning my blog, entering various challenges has encouraged me to grow my skills and creativity.
