Hi everyone! I hope you are having a good week! Today I am back sharing one of my favorite sets! I was so excited to color the beautiful floral images from the Wallpaper Art set by Altenew. I created a monochrome card, using shades of blue and gold. I will be sharing this as a part of The Flower Challenge – Monochrome. Be sure to check it out, they host fun monthly challenges!
For today’s card I started by choosing 2 of the floral images within the set. I stamped them using WOW Embossing ink and heat set them using Gilded Gold Embossing Powder from Brutus Monroe. The images were stamped on Bristol Smooth card stock. For my coloring today I used my Arteza brush pens. I used 4 shades of blue for my card, from lightest to darkest: A181, A117, A123, A 141. I continued to color and add colors until I felt my flowers had enough dimension. For the flower centers I used Acid Yellow and Honey. I also added colored pencils in the nooks and crannies. I then fussy cut both of my images and set them aside.
I then used the leaves from the set and chose to stamp them using a pattern that would compliment my floral images. I stamped these using WOW embossing ink and Gilded Gold Embossing powder from Brutus Monroe. To complete my background I added a metallic gold splatter. I glued my background on an A2 card base and set this aside. I then decided where I wanted to place my florals. The largest floral is glued to the card base and the smaller floral image is adhered using foam tape. I chose the hello sentiment from the set and used the same Gilded Gold Embossing powder for my sentiment. I then adhered this to my card using foam tape. I hope you enjoyed my monochrome card! It was fun to make! I also enjoyed using a stamp set I haven’t used in awhile!
