Altenew Floral Shadow in Faux Watercolor – by Heidi Blankenship

Published by at 8 00 am under Altenew,General Purpose Cards

Sending you a SMILE!

Yes, you will surely SMILE when you see Heidi’s card for today.  And I can only imagine how fun this would have been to make. Heidi created a gorgeous background sheet using Altenew inks on watercolor paper, adding in a bit of Delicata Gold, rockin-n-rollin’ (remember that technique), finishing off with some clear embossing, some water spritzes and some ink splatters. Now doesn’t that all sound like a fun inky time! Take a look:

Vibrant and fun!  The bit of black makes it all POP!!!

Just gorgeous!!!

Here’s a bit closer look so you can see the Delicata gold ink (rocked-n-rolled) onto some flower edges, the clear embossing, the watercolor effect caused when the paper was spritzed with water and the ink splatters.

Heidi will explain it in a bit more detail on her post.
