Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Magnolia Rustica Outline Stamp Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($200 in Total Prizes)

Hi there!

Welcome to ALTENEW PAINT-A-FLOWER: MAGNOLIA RUSTICA OUTLINE STAMP RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY. You are arriving from Ann Taylor's blog. A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience.

Today's new ALTENEW PAINT-A-FLOWER: MAGNOLIA RUSTICA Outline Stamp set is beautiful. The design of the flowers is perfect for all types of coloring mediums and all sorts of paper crafting projects. Here is what I have created for today's hop:

I heat embossed - Antique Gold powder- the image of the new PAF: MAGNOLIA RUSTICA onto heavy cardstock. First, I used a metallic green marker to color in the leaves of the flowers.

Using the Mini Ink Blending Tools, I colored each of the petals with ink. Once I had colored the entire image, I used a microfiber cloth to buff the embossed image, then fussy cut the image.

I created my card panel from white and gold cardstock. I placed the fussy cut image on the seam of the two cardstock, and added a sentiment, and a few pearls. Just love how this card with the new PAINT-A- FLOWER: MAGNOLIA RUSTICA turned out!

Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Fashion Monger Dahlia Outline Stamp Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello there!

Welcomet to ALTENEW PAINT-A-FLOWER: FASHION MONGER DAHLIA OUTLINE STAMP SET RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY. You are arriving from Sandhya Yyer's blog. A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience.

Today, we are celebrating the release of the new PAINT-A-FLOWER: FASHION MONGER DAHLIA Outline Stamp Set. This new stamp set is amazing. The flower design is perfect for all types of coloring mediums and paper crafting projects. Here is what I created with the stamp:

Of course my first thought is how can the stamp be incorporated into memory keeping, and this time it was all about fussy cutting it!

I stamped the outlines on heavy white cardstock with Obsidian ink, then used the Artist Quality Watercolor palette set to detail two of the bloom clusters.

I fussy cut the clusters off the cardstock, and placed them on its side on the top and bottom corner of the spread. This creates a nice diagonal design. Then it was all about adding my photo and journaling. I used the sentiments in the stamp set to create the title and add a few more details around the photo.

I love how this turned out, the design in the new PAF: FASHION MONGER DAHLIA was just perfect for this memory. Remember you can always receive the stamp set at your doorstep as part of the subscription program, just click here:

Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Lotus Outline Stamp Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($200 in Total Prizes)

Hi there!
Welcome to ALTENEW PAINT-A-FLOWER: LOTUS OUTLINE STAMP SET RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY. You are arriving from Erum's blog ( her work is always amazing!). A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience.

Today, Altenew is releasing this month's new PAINT-A-FLOWER: LOTUS, and I love this new stamp set. The amazing detail in the design ( there is an underwater view of the flower!!!) is just perfect for your choice of coloring method. Let me show you what I created... and I made a card!

I stamped the image on two white heavy cardstock panels with Obsidian ink. I trimmed both panels to about 5x7", and chose to glue one to a blue-gray pre made card base.

The other PAF LOTUS stamped panel, I colored using Altenew Artists Watercolor pan set, and the round Watercolor Brush set. I just took my time relaxing and coloring away. While color dried, I used the stamp set to create my sentiment, and trimmed it to a small strip.

I used a stitched rectangle die to cut the colored panel, and attached it with Altenew's Instant Dimensional. I made sure that the images matched so you can see the dimension and change in coloration. Then added the small sentiment strip atop the colored image.

I added small clear drops at the bottom of the colored card as a finishing touch. Just love how this turned out, and how relaxing it was to color the new Paint-A-Flower: LOTUS.
