Altenew June 2022 Today Is the Day Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)!

Do you like floral cards? Today I couldn’t resist adding ‘apricot’ to my flowers!

But first, this post is part of a Hop celebrating a new release from Altenew and you should have arrived here from VIRGINIA’s wonderful Blog.

Can a colour be ‘overdone’ because no matter how much I try I just can’t resist adding the colour ‘apricot’ to everything lol. For my first card I stamped this simple bouquet from the Floral Henna Stamp Set. And I used my Artist Markers to colour the images, you can find a full list of the colours below.

And the Climbing Leaves background has been ‘double die cut’ to create a focal point for the flowers.

My second bouquet of ‘apricot’ flowers was created by layering inks together to create these beautiful Ethereal Roses.

I kept this card very clean and simple and added a stamped black Bold Sentiment.

  1. I’ll take your ‘apricots’ all day, Therese! Two gorgeous cards using that color! LOve the way you’ve ‘parted the leaves’ to spotlight your blooms, and this CAS number will always get a thumbs up from me!
    =]

  2. Beautiful cards. I love the way the first one looks almost tropical and the elegant simplicity of the second card. Thanks for the inspiration!

  3. Probably because I have roses sitting on a shelf right now, I’m in love with the CAS rose card, but both cards are gorgeous (as usual).

  4. The floral Henna card is my favorite. I like the dimension of the card, the cut out circle, and the lovely flowers you made. Perfect card!

  5. fabulous cards Therese. Love the circle opening in the leafy background. And Apricot is a delightful colour!

  6. I love your clean and simple style and those Ethereal Roses are PERFECT!

  7. The CAS roses are perfection. I love how you did the layers and dimension but kept it simple.

  8. Seeing your first card, it has such a tropical vibe that I imaged that you could make those hibiscus by just adding stamen.

  9. Your cards are just gorgeous, Theresa, but I have to say that I just love, love, love your first card with the Floral Henna stamp. So nicely done. Thank you for sharing. Lori P xx

  10. I love that apricot color too! I especially love the coloring of your flowers on the first card. Thanks for sharing!
