Hi. The card today is totally inspired by the May 2019 Inspiration Challenge by Altenew.
I love the green, pink and grey combo. Here is my card.
I started with the banner in the background. The technique was inspired by a watercolor card by Kristina Werner. You can find the original post and video here. I just adapted it for the Altenew Artist Markers and used light shades of grey and green. Once the coloring was done, I cut it with the Fishtail Banners die by Itsy Bitsy. I also cut a larger mat out of grey card stock. Here is a look at the banner.
I inked the card base with Hickory Smoke distress ink and added some grey and black splatters. I adhered the mat to the card base and added the background popped up on foam tape.
The flowers and leaves were stamped and die cut using the Japanese Mums Build-a-flower set by Altenew. I used a mix of Altenew, Memento and Mai inks. I arranged them over the banner and then adhered them using glue and foam tape. Here is a closer look at the arrangement.
The sentiment is from the Sweetest Peas stamp set by Altenew. I just love the fonts used in this set. I heat embossed it on a strip of black paper with Vanilla White embossing powder by Wow!. Here is a closer look.
Here is another look at the completed card.
I just love this card! The Japanese Mums set is one of my favorite BAF sets and I had fun trying different color combinations. I have a bunch of flowers ready to go and I am looking forward to converting them into cards.
