Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Altenew Build A Flower

Hi Everybody,

Adding flowers of any description to a card is always a pleasure for me.

I just love the look of them in clusters or singly. This one is no exception and it is the Chrysanthemum from Altenew

I used Altenew mini inks to stamp it out as I layered up the design and then the matching die to cut it out.

And there you have a beautiful flower to add to your cards and so easy to accomplish.

I inked and embossed the background with the flourish folder from Card Making Magic to show case the bloom and then dotted it with sequins for a sparkly effect.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  4. Hello Christina,
    The layered Altenew stamps give a great effect and your card is lovely with your embossing folder used in the background and tinted to emphasise the flower.

  12. Love Chrysanths, any colour! Love it in yellow as you have done it. I think there is a significance in China about a yellow chrysanthemum?
