d white fabric additional stenciling of circles and partial circles offers visual continuity adding stitched circles to the piece continued the theme these circles were made with an embroidery sewing module using a wide range of thread colors i got a little carried away with adding circles and the finished quilt was too busy for my liking it measures about 16 x 17 inches the picture above shows it on my design wall close up the busy little quilt needed to be mounted onto a solid background to give it some space after auditioning a number of options i decided to use a previously painted wood panel measuring 24 square the sides are now painted black i layered a piece of batting and black fabric together and quilted it enough to hold it together the edges were turned prior to quilting then i attached the small art quilt to it and glued the entire thing onto the wooden frame the finished piece on a blue wall in my kitchen next month s prompt is sunshine i am excited to try something with

completed has to do with the elements of design the class is taught by jaycee gaspar he is an altenew design team member as well as an altenew educator jaycee makes beautiful cards using watercolor with stamped floral images his work is gorgeous i took this class because i admire his work and wanted to know more about his process these two clean and simple cards reflect some of what i learned in this class the first card showcases the use of line as a design element line the heavier weight of a brush marker line as a frame around the circle gives additional emphasis to what is included in the flat frame even though nothing on the card front is popped off the surface the thicker line also helps to make the circle seem three dimensional the only dimension on the card front is the use of sequins and pearls once the card front was complete it was popped off the 4 25 x 5 5 base with a black die cut frame underneath the front and frame were cut with gina k designs master layouts 1 set the petals of the flower almost cradle the sentiment perceived lines in linear composition help with the placement of elements such as sentiments on a card all images are stamped from the build a flower laelia set first the card panel was ink blended with pool ink using a circle mask this created a focal point for the black outline stamp to rest one of the layering stamps was used to add a little bit of color also using pool ink there are additional layering stamps in the set however i like the graphic look of limiting how much color is on this card the next card uses the same inks masks and stamp set but in a different way shape both cards use the circle as a design element but in a reverse way there is no actual dimension on this card the leaves are contained within the circle the images are stamped on the a2 card base after ink blending the center section of the masked card perceived depth and dimension are achieved by the use of the dark center color this is especially useful in creating flat cards for mailing additional interest is added with ink splatters of the pool ink mixed with a bit of water this post may contain affiliate links by clicking on them and

altenew altenew academy clean and simple die cuts gina k designs hero arts ink mailable cards masking technique multi layer stamping stamping thursday july 27 2023 watercolor takes practice recently i completed two altenew academy classes on watercolor for card makers after viewing the two different instructors creations the main takeaway is that watercolor takes practice in my case a lot of practice the workshops are titled botanical illustration inspired watercolor taught by jaycee gaspar and artists watercolor 101 for paper crafters with emily midgett each instructor has their own style but both agreed that swatching your paints beforehand is a good idea it is time consuming to swatch things but the effort is worth it the picture above shows the altenew essentials pan set along with the painted piece of watercolor paper with each of the colors painted on it there are swatches of each color mixed with the other colors as well i swatch all of my paints inks markers embossing powders and punches it helps to have all of these things as a reference some of them i refer to more than others but all of them provide me with an opportunity to see how the product works with the papers i use the card featured today shows the large rose and some of the foliage from the tranquility rose stamp set stamped and masked onto watercolor paper with a light gray color the use of the silver lake ink creates a no line coloring image this means that when the rose is painted the lines fade into the image and are not very noticeable for a true no line watercolor it is best to use the same color ink when stamping as will be used in painting i didn t decide to go with yellow until after stamping so the stamped ink is faintly visible after the watercolor dried the panel was cut with a ginak designs frame and mounted onto a gray card front measuring 4 25 x 5 5 the sentiments come from the same tranquility rose stamp set these are stamped with obsidian pigment ink the butterflies are stamped with the same ink and heat embossed with clear powder after coloring the images with copic markers they are popped up with foam a few sequins complete the front panel this post may contain

the floral stamp from the sweet as honey hero arts set measures about 6 5 from the base of the stem to the top leaf stamping the image and heat embossing it on different types of paper allowed for exploring three different ways to use it on hand created cards the first image on the left uses white embossing powder over white pigment ink on 100 lb cardstock after the paper cooled i ink blended the embossed image with catherine pooler inks in cool colors wipe off the ink from the white embossed areas to make the colors shine the middle image is stamped with versamark without wiping off the leftover white ink and embossed with clear powder onto a heavy green cardstock the pink image is also heat embossed with white ink and white powder this time it is on watercolor paper it is easy to watercolor with embossed images because the embossing helps hold the watercolor inside the design sometimes i audition stamped images onto backgrounds before deciding how to use them the picture above shows one of the images cut into two pieces and placed on an ink blended background and the picture below shows the intact image placed on a stenciled ink blended background this was too busy for my liking ultimately i layered the image on a small solid panel placed over a heat embossed background which has another piece of dark cardstock placed underneath and to one side of the front panel the same dark green cardstock was used for the sentiment the butterflies sentiment and background all use gold heat embossing powder this is a 6 inch square card the 4 25 x 5 5 card pictured below also uses a gold embossed butterfly and sentiment the sentiment is stamped onto the ink blended panel this is the same panel that was auditioned and rejected above the panel adheres to a top folding card base and the corners are rounded with a punch rounded corners soften the card this design element is particularly welcome on a sympathy card the last card is also a 6 inch square card and is layered very similarly to the other square card the butterflies are from the new days butterflies stamp set and colored with copic markers they add a bit of beauty to all of the cards thank you for visiting

sunday july 23 2023 stacked stencils for clean and simple cards have you layered stand alone stencils to achieve a new look that is what today s post is about i used two stencils to create a different effect on three clean and simple cards the idea is from nicole watt in her altenew academy class titled advanced stencil techniques her class is filled with a lot of fun techniques this one particularly appeals to me because it looks great and is very fun to do also i love that there is a bit of a surprise element to what you create that is shown upon the reveal on the first two cards i used the grid stencil after using an open stencil or mask for the first layer the card pictured above is the maze stencil with silver sage ink blended onto a 4 25 x 5 5 piece of cardstock leaving the stencil in place the grid stencil is aligned on top and pool and navy inks are blended over the original design the photo above shows the ink blending after that step with the grid stencil removed clean and simple card with stacked stenciling these next two cards use a reverse mask from the wonderland set the one above shows it with the grid stencil and the one below is with a discontinued geometric stencil also the one below uses navy ink after the geometric design was complete each of the cards has a stamped sentiment from the wonderland stamp set all three cards are layered onto standard 4 25 x 5 5 card bases after die cutting the stencil background and a frame using gina k s master cuts set 1 dies a little bling was added to all of the cards using pinkfresh studio metallic pearls or essential jewels the large die cut sentiment is popped up with foam tape it covers some of the card but not enough to be distracting from the cool looking background i hope you give this
