Altenew February 2023 Boho Chic Stamp, Die, Stencil & More Release Blog Hop #1 + Giveaway ($300 in Total Prizes!)
Hello there, and welcome to my blog! I am super thrilled to join Altenew for the February 2023 Boho Chic Stamp, Die, Stencil & More Release Blog Hop #1 + Giveaway. You should be arriving here from the talented Dana’s blog, but if not, you can go back to the start, at the Altenew Card Blog and go from there.
Project 1
I started by embossing the image and sentiment from the Boho Decor Stamp Set on kraft cardstock using pure white crisp embossing powder. Then I used my white, grey and black woodless colouring pencils to colour the image and add shadow behind the sentiment.
Supplies:
Project 2
First, I inked the image using the Swamp Buttercup Stencil on white cardstock with the below crisp dye inks:
Flowers – Citrus Burst, Warm Sunshine, Caramel Toffee, Paper Bag, Espresso, Just Green, Hunter Green, Evergreen
Leaves and stems – Just Green, Hunter Green, Evergreen
Next, I die cut the image using the Swamp Buttercup Die set. Then I inked the Masonry Wall Embossing Folder using white pigment ink, placed an A2 Jet Black cardstock in it and ran it through the die cutting machine.
After that, I embossed the sentiment from the Boho Decor Stamp Set using pure white crisp embossing powder. Next, I splattered white gouache on the embossed panel. Lastly, I assembled the card and stuck this panel on an A2 card base.
Supplies:
Project 3
I stamped the image from Boho Decor Stamp Set and the sentiment from the Wings of Hope Stamp Set on Jet Black cardstock using embossing ink. Next, I sprinkled antique gold crisp embossing powder on it and heat set it. As the last step, I stuck this panel on an A2 card base.
Supplies:
Project 4
First, I die cut the vases and leaves from white cardstock using the Boho Vases Die. Next, I coloured them using the below Artist Markers:
Vase 1 – Iceberg Eastern Sky, Ultramarine, Azurite
Leaves 1 – Bamboo, Parrot, Olive, Moss
Vase 2 – Wisteria, Hydrangea, Ultraviolet, Andromeda
Leaves 2 – Minty Mint, Sweet Leaf, Just Green, Hunter Green
Vase 3 – Sea Glass, Ocean Waves, Dusk, Desert Night
Leaves 3 – Firefly, Grass Field, Shadow Creek, Mountain Pine
After that, I die cut the sentiment from Jet Black cardstock using the Simple Greetings Die. For the shadow layer, I stuck the double-sided tape to the front of the cardstock, placed the shadow die on it and die cut it. Then I removed the backer of the tape, and stuck gold foil on it.
For the background, I die cut a piece of Jet Black cardstock using the Garden Trellis Cover Die. Next, I poured some precision glue on my work surface, used a sponge dauber and dabbed the glue randomly on the die cut panel. Then, I placed the gold foil on it and used my fingers to gently burnish the foil.
I then assembled the card and stuck it on an A2 card base.
