Beautiful Day!

Hi Friends,

Made a floral card using Altenew's Beautiful day stamp set. This is one of my favorite floral stampset from this brand.

Recently bought Alcohol markers and so my experiments are into it with my ever favorite floral stamps.

Altenew Beautiful day stampset/ Mudra deco foil stencil/Wendy Vecchi Embossing paste/Broken china Distress oxide

• Stamped the floral spray by masking it with Mudra masking sheet.
• Stamped it using Alcohol friendly black ink - Memento tuxedo black onto Neenah crest white.
• Colored using Alcohol markers.
• Highlighted at few places with white gel pens for interest.
• Fussy cut the florals.
• Made a custom texture paste with Embossing paste +Broken china Distress oxide
• Used Decostencil and partially stenciled an area in the white cs.
• After letting it to air dry, splashed some black splatters.
• Added the fussy cut floral spray using foam adhesive over textured base.
• Took sentiment from same stampset and white heat embossed on black cs.
• Added that sentiment banner to the focal panel glue runner.
• Then the focal panel over the A2 sized white card base.

Made this for Altenew's March challenge:

• Few yellow enamel dots as accents.

Authentic Self: Graciellie Designs

Hey Hi Crafty peeps,

Back again here with a floral card. This time, colored a digital image from Graciellie designs : Authentic. Absolutely love the florals, leaves and the sentiments in this stamp. Each sentiment style refers different mood.

It's my first time, using alcohol markers other than Chameleon pens.

• Printed digital stamps in the Neenah solar crest white cs.
• Colored using my new Alcohol markers. Yay! that's my recent gift of 80 markers. 
• Using three color combos of light, medium, dark, colored the florals and leaves.
• Added few white gel pen dots to the leaves and floral stamens.
• Yet to learn loads as this is entirely different from pencil coloring and watercoloring which am used to!
• Colored using cool grey on the outline of the floral spray.
• Then fussy cut the florals and foam mounted onto a geometric patterned sheet (actually its a packaging sheet of a recent purchase)
• Foam mounted the sentiment banner onto the florals.
• Added this panel to the white top fold A2 sized cardstock. 
• Few purple sequins are added as accents.

Hope you like this card.

Be sure to check Graciellie shop to grab your favorites.

Floral card!

Hi Friends!

 "Flowers feed the soul" How True!!

Today's post is also a floral card...Oh yeah ..Smitten with Floral stamps these days..Enjoyed watercoloring and recently started with Alcohol markers: Chameleon markers. There is lot to learn and to improve and i absolutely love my experiments with it...

These peonies stamps are new in my stash, from Stampendous - Bouquet for you. Stamped onto drawing sheet using Momento black ink and colored using Chameleon marker: Crimson red. Highlights done by Fabercastell polychromes. Then its fussy cut and mounted onto a ivory A2 sized card base which is stenciled on bg with hickory smoke distress ink diagonally.

Sentiment is from IBS- Tulip Bouquet set.

Hope you like my amateur attempt at alcohol marker coloring.

Just for you!

Hi Craftypals,

How you have been...Climate is pretty good here now at UAE...

Today is my first attempt at using Alcohol markers specifically Chameleon markers, which i received as Gift form my family for my Birthday in last October.

And also wanna use this mum's stamp from Stampendous Bouquet for you, which my crafter friend, Kanan Pandya sent all the way from USA as gift. Thank you SO much, KP...i absolutely loved the stampset and all the Gorgeous gifts you sent my way :)

Must say, am used to only watercolor markers till now and this alcohol markers are entirely different in all aspects. I love this experiment part of my trial today...and am pretty much happy about the result.

Stamped it on a drawing sheet of 280gsm with momento black ink and colored using Chameleon markers. Sentiment too from same set Bouquet for you, from Stampendous. Its then mounted onto green base cardstock. Few green enamel dots to finish off the card.

Hope you like this simple floral card.
