CIC360--Altenew

 Welcome to this week's Cupcake Inspirations Challenge. We have some gorgeous colors this week. We have a wonderful sponsor, Altenew, who is generously giving one lucky (randomly chosen) participant their Too Sweet stamp set!  Happy stamping!  Debbie




Established in April 2014, Altenew strives to bring elegant, natural and versatile designs in paper crafting products. Altenew firmly believes in sharing happiness and comfort with our loved ones through creative expression of crafting. We know that personal, delicate touches of a hand-made card or scrapbook page can bring joy to people that are important in our lives and we are proud to create products that help inspire alluring projects/creations.




For my card, I used Altenew's Bejeweled stamp set.  I embossed the butterfly in gold on vellum. I fussy cut it out. I watercolored on watercoloring paper. (Unfortunately, my colors did not turn out as I had wanted. I think I will be in the market for some better (and richer colored) water colors.  Let me know if you have any suggestions!)  I then embossed in gold the sentiment again from the Bejewled set. I adhered the butterfly then the gold stars. (I just loved the gold stars on the inspiration cupcakes.) I cut some strips of gold foiled card stock (DCWV) and adhered. I really liked how this one turned out. I really hope you will have time to join us this week. Debbie

  2. Oh my, I wish my embossing turned out as well as this and on vellum too. I love that vibrant splash of colour which contrasts with the delicate nature of the butterfly.
    So glad you dropped it onto the front at 613 Avenue Create this week.
