Hey Crafty People

Today I’m taking part in an Altenew blog hop to celebrate Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Gerbera Revolution Release.
If you aren’t familiar with the Paint-A-Flower, it is a monthly, floral outline stamp set series, and it is available as a subscription service.
I love that these are smaller sets, so they have a really good value and they are so wonderfully versatile!
Patterned Paper
I stamped the image onto a beautiful piece of patterned paper using Obsidian for a crisp, black outline. Then l fussy cut the image close to the outline. I did contemplate paper piecing by stamping the image repeatedly on different pieces of paper and fussy cut each separate element to put back together on my project but when I saw the image on this sheet l absolutely loved it as it was.
For my background, I cut an a2 panel of another floral paper and then a slightly smaller panel which I distressed by scraping the blade of my scissors against the edges. I added a strip of baby pink diagonally which could sit directly behind my florals.
Adding Instant Dimension foam tape between each layer adds some nice dimension. A stamped sentiment and some Satin white sequins finish the design nicely.

Rainbow Stripes
After stamping the image with Obsidian onto the corner of an a2 panel of Neenah 80Ib, I used some Satin masking tape to mask off a strip at a time to ink blend a rainbow.
- Crimson (Red Sunset)
- Autumn Blaze (Warm & Cozy)
- Maple Yellow (Sunshine In Your Pocket)
- Just Green (Meadow Green)
- Persian Blue (Glacier Caves)
- Plum (Sugarplums)
Once my rainbow was complete I added a stamped sentiment to the lower left hand side to balance out the design.
