April 2019 Altenew Inspiration Challenge



Today, my inbox contained the perfect reminder to use a long-time favorite Altenew set [btw it's on sale today!]... their Lotus Stamp & Die bundle  helped me to create a magical little water feature of the colors from Laurie's April challenge!

For Altenew's Inspiration Challenge:


Here is a little close-up - you'll see one mirror image of that gorgeous water lily's leave - so easy to do!


Hope they like it!
=]  Michele

E.T.A the very best news!!  Thank you, Altenew!!!
 
 

Supplies:
Altenew - Lotus Blossom bundle; Gradient Stripes Cover die; Cherished Memories for sentiment; Altenew 36 pan set of water colors - specifically the Cotton Candy pink, Citrus Burst yellow, and Ocean Waves blue!

So loving all the wonderful details on your card, Michele. I can never get that mirror image technique to work. Maybe my ink pad isn't inky enough?

Patti said...

Wow!! this is jaw dropping beautiful!

Absolutely stunning. The colors look like they're ready to pour out from those blossom heads. This kind of card is the kind I hate to make but you've taken the bull by the horns and made a soothing, heart-felt and beautiful card to provide comfort and solace.
