We’re teaming up today to showcase the versatility of the innovative Stampwheel from Altenew. It is the perfect craft room companion for the everyday crafter who wants a stamping mount for a quick, clever, and efficient way to stamp. You can easily create a wreath, layer stamps, mirror stamps, use stencils, & more with minimal effort and maximum creativity! 

For my today’s card I used the Stampwheel to create a floral round pattern. I placed my card base in the middle of the tool and stamped my images from Botanical Wreath Builder Stamp Set. I placed four small stamps in desired position, flipped the clear plate eight times and my pattern was done! Really quick and easy! 

Next, I used markers from Cosmic Garden Artist Alcohol Markers Set A, Tropical Garden Artist Alcohol Markers Set E and Sunshine Valley Garden Artist Alcohol Markers Set F to colour my images in. I finished my card with sentiments created with Essential Sentiments Hot Foil Plate.

That’s it for me! Your next stop is Arjita Singh.

*The winner of the $100 gift certificate will be chosen from comments left on the Altenew blog.

For today’s blog hop I used the newly released Palette Perfection Bundle and Watercolor Paper Set (Hot-Pressed, 5" x 7" Loose Sheets, 30 sheets/set) to create two watercolour floral backgrounds. The Palette Perfection Bundle comprises 10 exquisite Artists' Watercolor Tubes, including Permanent Yellow Deep, Opera Lemon, Phthalo Green, Dark Cyan, Phthalo Blue, Prussian Blue, Quinacridone Violet, Quinacridone Magenta, Toluidine Red, and Titanium White. 

 
I started by stamping my floral images from Vase Fillers Stamp Set with a light ink (I used Limestone Crisp Dye Ink) onto the watercolour papers. Next, I used my watercolours to very loosely paint over the stamped images. 

For my second background I used only two stamps and only three watercolour tubes.

To finish both designs I added some watercolour splatters. I'm really pleased with how both backgrounds turned out, they will make a great base for my cards. 

That’s it for me, your next stop on the hop is Kelly Griglione!

For my today’s project I used the newly released Dynamic Duo: Wildflower Bouquet & Add-on Die Bundle. This bundle includes everything you need to create a cute bunch of flowers: the Dynamic Duo: Wildflower Bouquet Layering Stencil Set, stamp set for additional details and kind sentiments along with one matching add-on die set containing 4 dies.



I started by stencilling my flowers onto white cardstock using the stencil set. For the flowers I used pink inks from Spring Bouquet set, blues from Tranquility Crisp Dye Ink set and purple shades from Enchanted Garden Crisp Dye Ink set. For the leaves I used green inks from Spring Bouquet set and Evergreen Crisp Dye Ink. To finish the design I added some additional details stamped with dark purple and black ink. I die cut the bouquet and my sentiment using the coordinating dies and added to the card. As a background I used a patterned paper from Blushing Blooms 6x6 Paper Pack.
