Welcome to the Altenew Paint-A-Flower: White Swan Echinacea Outline Stamp Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway. You should have arrived here from Natalie’s blog. This blog hop is hosted by Altenew. I hope you are inspired by the hop to create a beautiful masterpiece using this new stamp. Let’s get into my card for today.
This beautiful stamp making a striking centerpiece on your cards. The designers and guest designers will show you just how much fun it is to create with this stamp. Starting off my card, I stamped the image in black ink onto watercolor paper. Using the Altenew Spring Watercolor Brush Markers I colored in this beautiful image. These markers are awesome for simple watercoloring.
I watercolored the flowers first and fuzzy cut them out. Now it was time to set these aside and work on my background. To create the background I started off with a piece of green cardstock. Next I pulled out my Leaf Bed stencil and Altenew Moss ink to stencil on the leaves background. I love this stencil so much for creating simple backgrounds for cards.
I used more Moss ink towards the bottom of the panel and kept the top a little lighter. Next I used the Moss ink to saturate a piece of green cardstock to create a panel for my sentiment. I stamped the sentiment in Versamark and heat set it with Altenew White Embossing Powder.
To finish off the card, I trimmed down my panel smaller to fit onto an A2 card panel. Using foam tape I popped up the flowers and placed them on the card. I also used foam tape to pop up the sentiment as well. I really love who this card turned out. Next on the hop is Jaycee. I’ve also included the entire hop list in case you get lost along the way.

The green background is beautiful, but I wish it weren’t a get well card. Maybe I’m not speaking for anyone else but if I were sick I’d rather see any other color than vibrant green. “Hello”, “Happy Birthday” friendship or whatever., and you’ve got a super card!

Roxanne Tellini says
I am hesitant to send flower cards to men. It is kinda silly but I do. This card is pretty but it does not feel overly feminine to me. That is a tough line to walk. Great work.
