We are celebrating this month's Paint-A-Flower Clematis Josephine with a blog hop!
If you arrive from the blog of Sandhya Iyer, you are in the right place.
If not, come and join the fun hop for ideas and inspiration. You can find all information of this hop over Altenw Card Blog.
It is obviously that Paint- a-Flower is designed for painting and coloring. However, this time, I decided to create without any coloring and paint. As you can see, it can be done! This card has a few elements (highlighted bold and underlined) that you may not have seen it before. I hope you like it!
I incorporated a few strips of color paper from Gradient Card Stock. while lining up the color paper, I purposely left a tiny gap in between for extra oomph. I stamped twice with each image (one on white card stock and the other with the color paper on white card stock)
The stamping can be done easily thanks to the stamp-positioner like MISTI. Once I was happy with the stamped images, I secured the strips with adhesive tape.
I then trimmed it to side and then ran it through the die cut machine with Simple Frame 3D Embossing Folder. The subtle dry-embossed border highlights the overall image without overwhelm it.
I then embossed, die cut and popped up the sentiment. I can't help adding more sequins and metallic thread. Finally, this card is complete!
I think this card is much like, you CAN have your cake and eat it, too.
When referring to this card, it means... you don't have to color to get depth, textures and dimensions.
Hope you enjoy this interpretation.

Love how the embossing takes this card next level. So pretty with the color accents.
Like "mel h" I'm crazy about how you framed the focal point with that embossing folder. I looks amazing with those gradient stripes running across it.
Really dynamic use of color here-very BOLD!
Love all the details of this card that make it a stand-out, Virginia!!
Wow!!! Fabulous card!!!
Such a bold card & I love the frame. Great inspiration.
I'm wowed with your beautiful out of the box creativity. The frame is so subtle but elegant and the ribbons truly work. Color me impressed!

Beautiful card with lots of interest, dimension and style!
The details and creativity in texture are stunning!
What a great design! I'm afraid of too much white space but this card is so lovely. Thanks for your detailed descriptions!
Delightful Virginia. The use of the block colours gives a lot of depth.
Yes!! Proof you don’t have to paint a “PAINT a flower” all the products are so versatile 🥰
Such a creative way to use this stamp set. Very pretty!
I love how you did this with the stripes of red! Great idea! :)
Super card! Love how you put it together!
Such a great design!!
I would like to try this technique. Thank you for sharing!
I think this design is very elegant... love the stripes of color and it really makes this flower pop. Great idea and TFS this beauty!
Stunning as always, Virginia. THanks for the inspiration.
Love your creativity!!
Awesome effect on your card! I love this pretty floral design!
Great share. I like the frame and find it so neat that both pages were able to make it through the folder. I thought it was washi tape instead of cardstock.
Wow! What an eye-catching card Virginia with your stunning design!! :)
Another beautiful set! You did a wonderful job using the Clematis Josephine, love the different details in your card Virginia. Thanks for the inspiration!
Gorgeous as always Virginia! ❤️ Love the washi embossed only with the folder
Virginia - this card is gorgeous!
I love the stripes and the textured background!
Gosh, this is gorgeous. I didn't know Altenew has gradient cardstock packs!
Gorgeous card, and so simple. This technique is a must try.
I absolutely love your card! I would have never thought to use such a bold color in a background like that, but it looks super. Thanks for sharing your talent!
Pretty card with the embossing and stripes.
What a great idea, especially when you need a card in a hurry. Really pretty!
Yes, quick! I wonder if you could do this Christmas style with poinsettias?
