Nicole Picadura had ten detailed videos on stamp layering techniques.  I did not own most of the stamp sets used in these tutorials, so I did my best to find Altenew alternative that had similar configurations either same number of layers, similar configurations or just the basic design of the project.

 

August 2022 Inspiration Challenge

Birthday Card Inspiration Challenge

Below is the card I am submitting for the August 2022 Inspirations Challenge.

I enjoy making cards with pieces I have around and using colors that remind me of our garden; before the current draught.  

Recently I made the background with the Altenew Halftone Stencil and various Altenew inks to achieve a rainbow effect.  The leaves were created a while ago with the Leaf Mix Die Set by Altenew and put on black leaves.  "birthday wishes" is from Birthday Greeting Stamp Set, stamped in black on white card stock; that was fussy cut and lifted up with Instant Dimension Foam Tape.  These were put on a piece of black card stock and is now ready for my friends birthday.

Altenew acceptance

 

My name is Sharlene (she/her) and I have been creating cards since the early 2000's when I started going to Stampin' Up parties.  After several years my demonstrator moved abroad so I had to find my own resources and products on the internet.  Over a year ago I found Altenew and fell in love with their products and educational opportunities. 

I have just been accepted into Altenew's ACEP Program.  I am very excited to improve my techniques and learn ways to create more exciting projects.  This is my journey to become qualified to teach others how to create cards using Altenew products and teachings.
