Hello my crafty friends. Today I am happy to be a guest designer over at the Altenew blog. Make sure to visit their post HERE and leave me your comments there !

I am sharing two cards, both easy to recreate!

card 1

For my first card I used the Adore You( SBC | SSS | ALTN ) stamp set and dies. I colored everything with my ZIG  Clean Color Markers ( SBC | SSS ) to get that watercolor look.

A card with flowers is perfect for any occasion, just change the sentiment and you are good to go!

card 2

For my second card I used the pear from the Simple Fruits ( SBC | SSS | ALTN ) stamp set and dies. I inked my pears using 3 different colors of distress oxide inks. A MISTI ( SBC | SSS ) was a must for this technique, firstly to get a good impression out of a solid stamp and secondly to stamp again and again on the same spot with different inks.

  1. Beautiful cards!! I love them both. I just started following your blog and can’t wait to see more of your work.

  2. The cards you’ve made are so beautiful. I loved the Altenew patterned paper when you first showed it on your blog weeks ago. The colors are great. Sadly I just couldn’t find it in any of the german shops by now. But I still enjoy your work using it!

  3. Both cards are wonderful although I love the flowers the best! Thanks so much for sharing your lovely work!!!

  4. They’re both beautiful cards. I love the colors of the pear card, but the floral design is more practical. As you noted, just change the sentiment, and you have a card for many occasions.

  5. I saw your cards yesterday on the Altenew blog and thought there are gorgous. Now I watch also the video and learn again some things. Thank you verry much for your beautiful work and time to show it to us.

  6. Hello Vicky!
    Both cards were gorgeous! I liked the floral card just slightly more than the pears.
    Thank You so much for sharing your beautiful work!
    Blessings!

  7. Hello again Vicky. Love both cards but am always drawn to flowers much more than fruit. Love the soft, delicate colouring and your choice of background makes the card pop. Beautiful job as always. TFS.

  8. Hi Vicki
    Question: what are the names of the pinks you used in the Zig Clean Brush markers?
    I always love your videos and I really appreciate the specifics.

    Thanks
    Cecilia
