Hello Everyone

Today I am sharing a card which was truly an inspiration from a beautiful lady Natasha Davies . I am so inspired by her work that I tried to create and use one of her techniques in my card.

For my card I have used wow embossing powder to create my background and one of Altenew stamps called Botanical You.

Matrials:

-Botanical You stamps

-Botanical You dies

-Pick me up embossing powder and Embossing Ink

-Neenah Solar white

-Altenew Greenfields Ink pads

-Altenew Sea Shore Ink pads

-Altenew Black Permanent ink pads

Steps:

-For My background I have created a small video which you can watch and follow.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_n2qHL40Nug&t=13s

I took a piece of 4 1/4' x 5 1/2' Cardstock and put painters tapes on the gaps. Then I applied embossing inks on those middle parts.

Once happy I heat embossed using the wow embossing powder Punch.

• After that I went ahead and used the ALtenew botanical you stamp set using my green Ink fields ink pads and Sea shore Ink pads . I stamped the word you on another sheet of neenah solar white and die cut the word to stick using foam tape.
• I stamped the sentiment with the black permanent ink to finish my card

Hope you all like it. If you have any questions feel free to message me.

Your Next hop is Colleen

Hello Card makers and Bloggers
Its been a long time since I wrote my last blog. Was so busy after my Altenew Educator Program which I cleared in July. Yes you heard me right !! Finally I am a FIRST Australian Certified educator for Altenew . Yahoo!! I am very excited.
Now coming back to the topic. This time my blog is not about Altenew creation. Or you can say I have used some of the products from Altenew like their inks and sentiments to make few of my cards, but I had few Crafters Companions embossing Folders sitting with me so I though lets get some inspirations and spread some inspiration.
I have also followed Jennifer Mcguire for inspirations.
So here are few of the things I made:

I will try and Explain what I did with each of them one by one.
The one I took the Crafters Compaion Indian Summer 3D Embossing Folder and Altenew inks.

The Next one is the Crafts Companion Floral Fusion Along with Finnabair Metalic wax and Altenew Ink.

This one is just on white with Flourishing Frames

Trust me this was white paper and I have used crafters Companion Zen Garden , Redesign Wax along with picket fence blending brush

The Next one is my favorite and this Embossing folder is In the Garden

Spreading some love with Love Blossom

Now coming onto come cards which I have created

You can see the cards which I have made are with some of the folders which I have shown above. The Sentiments used on the cards are from Altenew.
Hope you all like it.
Thanks

Wow ! finally onto my last card for my level 2 Altenew Educator Program.
Today I am sharing the card which I created after learning from the Guru's of Altenew Jennifer Rzasa, Debby Hughes, and Laura Bassen. Wow their online class Creative water color media is just amazing.
So many different ways you can color your images by just using Altenew's ink pads or re-inkers .. yes I am right just re-inkers.
At the end of this blog post I have also attached a small experiment I did with my re-inkers. O what a fun!
So here I am with my Card where I have used Canson watercolor Paper , Peach perfect re-inker for my background and flowers from Altenew Disty Print Stamp. Images are colored using ink pads and water brush pen.

For my Background ,I took a piece of canson cardstock. Then I took out few drops of re-inker on my Glass media mat and sprayed water over re-inker drops . With the help of a water brush pen I tried to lift and dabbed the ink on my paper gently everywhere (I had sparyed lots of water on my mat over the reinker drops) as I wanted a very light colour for my background.
Ones the background is dry I used a gold embossing powder to heat emboss my Ditsy print stamped images.

For colouring my leaves and flowers I firstly dabbed a colour on the mat and then picked them up with my water brush pen to paint my flowers.
Now my sentiments are from halftone everything stamp and dies where I used a royal blue cardstock along with white to cut them out and used foam tape to adhere them . From the same coordinating stamp set , I have also stamped "Thanks for" with Persian blue ink pad .
Last part of the card was a bit of enhancing my flower center which I did with some diamonds lying in my stash.

Hope you all liked it .
Oh! before I forget , here is my experimented work or you can say a background I created with the re-inker on a glossy card stock.

Hope you all like it.
Please don't forget to leave me a comment as its boosts my morale to create more for sure.

Regards

Neha.

Coming back to home, after having a nice break is certainly is relaxing !
2019 has arrived and first month is already gone. Time is running so fast isn't it?
Now coming back to my Altenew's world of Creation. This card is about a twist techniques which I have learned from the beautiful instructor Therese Calvird .
I have created a Birthday card using Altenew Dearest Friend Stamp and Dies by trying to do a unusual cut on my card.

In this, my base card is using Neenah Solar white cardstock along with Vellum (on which you can see the sentiment) and Blue colour cardstock.
I first stamped my flower image seperatly on the canson watercolor cardstock and then die cut it along with the few seperate leaves which were provided in the set. For coloring I have used my Zig Clean real brush markers.
Now coming on to the background. I simply took the leaf stamp from the set and randomly stamped them on neenah solar white with my versamark ink pad and then used white embossing powder to heat set. Once its cooled down I took my picket fence Life changing Blending brush along with Tim Holtz Salty ocean Distress ink for my background blending on top of the embossed leafs.
Once the background is done I simply cut it in two parts and matt it with blue cardstock as well as sticking both pieces on vellum as a base.

I took my stamped flower image and stuck it on the side of the card in between both the pieces with the double sided foam dots and stuck all my extra leaves underneath giving it more greenery.
Then I added the sentiment from the Stamp set called Birthday Builder stamp set with my Staz on Ink.

For the middle of the flower which I was bit hesitant in coloring so I used Nuvo Glitter drop white to finish my card.
Hope you all like what I created.
Look forward to see your beautiful Comments.

Good Morning Everyone,
Today I am sharing a card which I made for my Altenew Educator Cetification Program which relates to use of single colour or rainbow colours in your project.
So here I am with my card where I have used the dies called Layered cityscape cover Die B from Altenew for my buildings. To colour them I have used my Zig Markers in Violet, red , blue , green and Yellow.

I do cut out two pcs of Canson watercolour paper for my Buildings and then used my Magic mat ( Glass media mat ) for playing around with my markers.
For my sentiments I have used Dearest Friend stamp set and embossed them with white embossing powder on a black cardstock.

Hope you all like it.

Regards

Hello Everyone,
Its me , Yes I am back again with my Altenew Journey . A bit of gap and busy with my craft show here in Brisbane kept me away from creating. Now here I am with my another card.

In this card I have used the Altenew Starry flower along with its matching dies. Word Thank you is also used from one of the Altenew Thank you dies. The starry flower was also embossed with the white Embossing powered and flower centers are done with nuvo drops.
The Inks which I have used are the new release from the Altenew called the Enchanted Garden Mini Cube Set. I have also scored on my background cardstock to enhance it.
Hope you all like it.regardsNeha
