After an extremely busy and wonderful summer with family and all the grandchildren (& shock horror- internet problems which are now sorted!! Haha). Back to some card crafting, not that I haven't been busy on that scene too having made a start on my Christmas cards! Rekindled my crocheting (is that a word?) and Crocheted a beautiful little amigurumi penguin at a knit and natter group etc etc...
Anyway here's my card for this weeks challenges - Altenew image stamped on watercolour card, heat embossed with platinum powder, watercoloured with zig clean colour watercolour pens which I found to be so easy I have ordered a few more as I really love them...not so easy to see is that the card is layered with deep blue card and grey onto a blue card base....to enhance the colours and because water colour card/paper is usually creamier than plain white card and usually needs something more than a plain white card background. Enjoy

This is one of my favorite floral stamps at the moment (actually I also used it for this challenge in my DT card!) and you've used it beautifully. The heat embossing looks so shiny and pretty and your shading looks beautiful too, I love the two-tone look in the flowers! Thanks for joining us at Less Is More!
ReplyDeleteI agree Nonni, this stamp is an all time favourite of mine too. So versatile.
