Altenew 7th Anniversary Blog Hop Day 3 + Giveaway

Hello there, I am delighted to be joining Altenew today to celebrate their 7th Anniversary. There is a fun 4 day blog hop going on, filled with inspiration and prizes and today is day 3. Please see below for more information on the hop and giveaway. 

For my card today, I wanted to create a Mother's Day for my mum. I had been wanting to use the Spring Roses Die Set for some time and I thought this was the perfect opportunity! I started off by adding Altenew Double Sided Adhesive Sheet on to the back of sheets of white cardstock. I then ran them through my die cutting machine, die cutting two of the Altenew Spring Roses Die Set Dies. I die cut each flower three times so that I could layer them up. 

On one set, I added ink blending using Altenew Small Ink Blending Tools. I used inks from the Altenew Sugarplums, Tranquility, Shades of Purple and Green Meadows Crisp Dye Ink Cube Sets. I then spritzed them using Altenew Iridescent Shimmer Ink Spray. The white cardstock layers were adhered to a panel of white cardstock and then the inked one added on top. I also inlaid the flower pieces but left the leaves with the outlines only. This panel was then adhered to an A2 white card base with foam tape. 

I took the Altenew Fine Alphabet Dies and die cut them twice from black cardstock and once from black glitter cardstock. They were layered up one on top of another using liquid glue and added to the card with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment from the Altenew Sentiment Strips 2 Stamp Set on to black cardstock with Versamark Ink. I applied Altenew Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder, heat set and cut it in to a strip. This was also added to the card with foam tape. To finish off, I added a few Lucy's Bubbles.
