AECP - All About Layering 2

 Hello,

Welcome back! Today I used Beloved Daisy stamp set in my second assignment. The focus of this assignment is to create a card using the layering stamps and coordinating dies (if any).




I stamped all my images on white card stock and layered them in shades of pink and purple. I stamped the stems and leaves as well. Then, I fussy cut the images out and set them aside. 

I embossed a card stock slightly smaller than the card front using Tim Holtz’s intertwine embossing folder to create a background. I also die cut a black frame using Altenew’s Nesting Frames Die set.





To put my card together, I foam mounted the black frame on the embossed panel. The daisies are arranged into a bouquet and foam tapes are added behind to give them some dimension.  I tied a little bow using twine on the stems and glued the leaves and added a small sentiment from Sentiment Strips 2. Finally, I added a few gem stones for some interest.

That completes my assignment for All About Layering 2. I hope you like it.

 

Have a wonderful week,

Juliet

AECP: Level 2 Final Challenge

Image
 Hello, Today is the day for me to post my projects for my Level 2 AECP final challenge! I am required to select any 3 components from the classes in Level 1 or 2 and come up with 4 masculine cards with the following themes; birthday, Love/thinking of you, anniversary and encouragement. I also need to complete an upcycled or recycled project. The components I chose are; “Clean and simple boutique cards”, “easy die cutting techniques” and “with a twist”.  “Clean and Simple boutique cards” are created with a minimal look that creates the “wow” factor for the card recipients. I like it that my cards use minimal supplies to bring out the maximum satisfaction for the recipients. I also like to leave “white spaces” on my cards for the “clean look”. “Easy die cutting techniques” help put my dies to good use. I like that the die cuts can be used to create the main highlights of my cards and also create the composition that I like.  “With a twist” allows me to use my current crafting supplies t

AECP: Creative Watercolor Media

Image
 Hello, Welcome back! I learnt how to use different watercolor media to color my images on my cards. There are many watercolor media out there. Today, I’ll be using Altenew’s watercolor brush markers, Dr. Ph. Martin’s India ink and Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors. I used watercolor paper for all my cards. Together with Altenew’s famous floral images, I had a blast coloring them. My first card uses Altenew’s Flower Garden.  I stamped and embossed the floral images with clear embossing powder. Then, I spritzed the whole watercolor paper with clear water. I used Dr. Ph Martin’s India ink to color my images. While the images were wet, I added my colors on the flower petals and watched the colors disperse with the water. This wet on wet coloring technique is really quite magical as the colors work their way with the water. I added some darker colors for some contrast.  India ink is permanent once dried. Once the whole panel is dry, I spritzed the whole paper with clear water again. I adde

AECP: Level 1 Final Challenge Masculine cards set

Image
 Hello, Welcome back! I am thrilled to showcase my Masculine cards set for Level 1 Final Challenge AECP. In my previous blog posts, I mentioned that I have been challenged to complete 2 sets of cards - feminine and masculine cards, and to choose 3 classes in level 1 to incorporate the elements learnt in my cards. For my masculine cards set, I chose “Let it Shine”, “Irresistible Inking Techniques” and “Clean and Simple Boutique Cards”. Just like my feminine cards, I made a total of 6 cards. I also recycled a plastic package from a previous purchase and used it to package my cards.  The masculine card designs were based on the  Leaf Clusters  stamp set. Similar to the feminine cards layout, I was able to create 6 different designs and layout using the leaves stamp. All the sentiments used in the cards are from  Floral Shadow  stamp set. Each card differs in sentiments but they all have a similar and cohesive theme as a set. All my cards use the leaves stamp as the main focus.  All sentim
