Welcome to my stop on the Altenew, New Day Card Kit, Blog Hop!
I'm excited to share three cards I created using this gorgeous kit! Make sure you read about the giveaways and a fun promotion at the bottom of the post!
If you're following along the hop, you should've come from Joni Andaya's blog. Isn't she fabulous?!! If you'd like to start at the beginning of the hop, head over to the Altenew blog here.
All the products I used are listed at the bottom of the post, in the affiliate links.
There is a gorgeous paper pad included in the kit that I just HAD TO USE on my first two cards!
The blue/green background on my card below is designer paper. So pretty! I just stamped and white embossed some floral images from the stamp set that is included in the kit, added the sentiment and some enamel dots and it was done. Very easy and quick!
Yes, that gorgeous watercolor flower in the background of my next card is also designer paper! Isn't it beautiful?! I took the little butterfly and a sentiment, both from the same stamp set used above and stamped them in black ink. Then I just added a strip of black cardstock along the edge and I was finished. Another pretty card, which only took about 5 minutes to create!
For my last card, I wanted to play more with the flowers in the stamp set and try a technique I haven't used in ages!
I carefully added Candied Apple and Peeled Paint Distress Inks to the flower and stem areas of the stamp and spritzed it with water before stamping. After all the stamping was done, I spritzed the whole panel again with a bit more water and just let it flow. I love this artsy, watercolor look! And you know I love to color but with solid floral stamps, you don't have that option. So this is a fun technique to try with all those solid image stamps you have!

Your cards are beautiful Barb, I love the last one with the red flowers so pretty.
I am stunned at how you were able to make your cards so quickly. I swear that I am the slowest stamper in the world! On your last card, did you stamp on watercolor paper or regular paper?
Gorgeous cards, love the water colored flowers!

For me, your card designs are very inspiring as I don't color much at all.

They have lovely patterned papers but your spritz watercolor was fabulous!
I'm also in love with the printed papers of this kit. But I love what you did on the third card and can't wait to try it. I love hops. The giveaways are great, but the best is finding so many new talented people along the way. TFS😊
I am always amazed at the creativity that is displayed. That first card I was sure you inked the background. Lovely papers in this kit. That watercolor rose is stunning. The red flowers are my fave. I love the look. (Mine never ever turn out...)

Just love your cards, fun and unique.

Your cards are all beautiful. It's hard to believe how easy the first 2 were - with such lovely results. And I especially love the artsy results you achieved with your last card. The red remained vibrant but is so cool. Thanks!
All 3 are gorgeous!!
Honestly Barb, you're so good with those Zig Clean Color Brushes I thought you had created the rose yourself - yes, that's how talented I think you are. All three cards are terrific. We all lead busy lives so being able to have these beautiful background paper is real value added.
