Today at the Altenew Blog I have a focus post featuring the new Extra Special stamp set. That means three different cards using this set as well as a video which you can find linked below.
For my first card I created a stamped background with the main flower image from the Extra Special stamp set and then for the sentiment I couldn’t help myself but I just had to get out the Bold Alphabet dies (sorry Wida) and I used one of the new cardstocks, this one is the Deep Iris and isn’t it pretty!
and did you see that I had the Ink Sprays out again….. I used Soft Lilac, Lavender Fields and Frayed Leaf to create my background.
For my second card I also used the Halftone Stencil and the Artist Markers to create a more classic ‘Mother’s Day’ design.
My final card (and video) was probably the easiest and funnest, I created a subtle background for the Thank You die which I made all shimmery…. but you can watch the whole process on video if you scroll just a little further on.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.
You can find all the products I used linked below or you can head to Altenew and find them there. I hope you enjoyed the focus on this gorgeous Extra Special stamp set, I think it’s so very pretty. Have a great day!
