AECP Level 2 - In the Mood for Color

It's time to share another card I made for certification class.  This lesson, in the In the Mood for Color class, focused on the color green.  She showed stamping on watercolor paper and simply using your brush and water to spread the color.  I love the look you get.  While she used distress inks, I used some of my Altenew inks.  I think the next one I do, I'll use some oxide inks to see what happens.


Stamp(s):  Leafy Canopy, Build-A-Flower: Rose (Altenew)
Ink(s):  Frayed Leaf, Sweet Leaf, Firefly, Jet Black (Altenew)
Cardstock:  Whisper White (Stampin' Up!); Watercolor Paper (Master's Touch)
Other:  Sequins (Taylored Expressions); Foam Tape; Shimmery Crystal Effects (Stampin' Up!)


Thanks for stopping by,

AECP - The Color Red

Over the next few days, I'm going to be sharing with you all the cards I've made for my Altenew Educator Certification Program Level 2 classes.  I've had a fun week learning more about color and different ways to use it.

Today's color was red so I combined Candied Apple Distress Oxide ink with Fired Brick Distress Oxide ink.  I used the Leaf Canopy stamp set from Altenew and this is the end result.

I stamped the solid leaf image onto Mixed Media Paper using Candied Apple distress oxide ink and spritzed it with water.  Then, once dry, I stamped the outline leaf image on the solid image using Fired Brick distress oxide ink.


Stamp(s):  Leaf Canopy (Altenew)
Distress Oxide Ink(s):  Candied Apple, Fired Brick
Cardstock:  Whisper White, Basic Black (Stampin' Up!); Mixed Media Paper (Strathmore)
Other:  Arctic White Ultra-Fine Embossing Powder; Clear Raindrops (Studio Katia)

For the sentiment, I white embossed it on black and added it to the center between the leaf branches.  For the finishing touch, I added some clear raindrops.
