Altenew | July 2022 Summer Sunshine Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello there, today sees the release of the new Summer Sunshine Collection from Altenew. I really love the new Captivating Blooms set which is part of the release. You can use it in lots of different ways, in fact, I have another card over on the Altenew blog using the set too, which you can see HERE. For today's card, I paired it with the stencil for some easy and quick colouring. 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.

I started off by stamping the large image from Altenew Captivating Blooms Stamp Set on to white cardstock with Altenew Obsidian Pigment Ink. I then placed the Altenew Captivating Blooms Simple Coloring Stencils (4 in 1) over the top. Using Altenew Mini Ink Blending Brushes, I added ink blending to colour the flowers. 

I used Altenew Cherry Blossom Crisp Dye Inks for the flowers and Green Valley Crisp Dye Inks for the stems. For the centres of the flowers, I used Butternut and Pumpkin Pie from the Altenew Space Garden Artist Alcohol Markers Set I. 

The flowers were then fussy cut out with scissors and adhered to an A2 white card base (with some scoring lines on) using Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape. I stamped the sentiment from the Altenew Bold Sentiments Stamp Set using Obsidian Pigment Ink and then cut in to a strip. It was added to the card with more foam tape. To finish off, I added a few Iridescent Jewels.
