Hello and welcome!
I'm here today with a card I made after watching Erum Tasneen's video on the Altenew August Card Challenge blog. I am such a fan of her creations and love to watch her videos and learn from such a master! I pretty much followed along the video and came up with this creation. The main difference is hers of course is PERFECT in every way, and I added a thicker black sentiment panel and matted the watercolor splattered background with a black edge and an additional striped edge.
I am terrible with splatters, especially black ones, so I did use watercolor and brushes to put the color splatters on, but most of the black ones were made with by using partial stamping of the Altenew stamp called "Snowing".
Here's a closer view of my card:
Supplies used were:
Arches Cold Pressed watercolor paper
Kuretake watercolors, waterbrush
Zig Clean Color markers, waterbrush
Black and white card stock from Gina K Designs
Striped paper from Papertrey Ink
Altenew "Birthday Greetings" sentiment with white embossing powder
Altenew "Snowing" stamp
Altenew Persian Motifs stamp set
Versafine Ink
Wow Gold embossing powder
Studio Katie water droplets
Foam tape and liquid adhesives
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Oh my goodness, this is so, so pretty. That gold is perfect and so is your water coloring. Great design too, I'm pinning!!!
ReplyDeleteAngie this is so beautiful and elegant. Your water coloring is amazing and the gold embossing really sets it off.
ReplyDeleteStunning card. Love the splattered background and watercolored flowers. Clear gems for the dew drops was a clever idea. Thanks for joining the Sisterhood's "Bloomin' Flowers" challenge.
