Howdy!! It has been a while. Welcome to a new chapter.
I am excited to be accepted into Altenew’s AECP. I will be making cards and posting them for different levels of the certification. So let’s get started.
I am making a card today for my first course – All About Layering 3. I decided that my first project would center around my mom. She was my inspiration as a child and my cheerleader throughout my life. Yellow roses were her favorite, and being a Texan, it just seemed appropriate.
The class explains how to use and line up layering stamp sets. These layering sets can be a little tough to use at times but this class gives you great instruction on how to use them very easily. I started with gray ink for my outline later to keep the lines of the flower soft. Then using three different shades of yellow Altenew Ink (Lemonade Stand, Honey Drizzle & Maple Yellow) and two of green (Oak Moss & Matcha Tea) for each additional layer. I used the die set to cut out the roses and leaves. I stamped some of the other flowers from the set, also with gray ink, and cut them out using the die set as well. I used dimensional tape to bring the layers off of the card base. I stamped the sentiment with Altenew’s Permanent Black Pigment Ink.
I wanted to keep this card simple to show off the two beautiful yellow roses.
