Hi crafty friends! So excited to be hopping with Altenew today for day 1 of their 10 Year Anniversary Hop & Giveaway. There’s over $3,500 total in prizes, so make sure to hop along for a chance to win!
For this card I used the stunning Craft-A-Flower: Cosmos layering die set from Altenew to create a beautiful flower with colored cardstock. I wanted a whimsical backdrop for this so I foiled one of the Nordic Vines Hot Foil Plates on the left side of my cardpanel in Aura hot foil from Spellbinders. To make this look really dreamy, I added some really intense inblending going from the bottom fading up to the top using the Cool Summer Night ink bundle. I finished off the card with some Essential Sentiments hot foiled sentiment strips and a couple of embellishments.
