Altenew March 2022 Inspiration Challenge


Before I sign off for the weekend, I had a bit of simple water-coloring this afternoon
on an embossed image from Altenew - Therese gave me lots of beautiful inspiration for the March 2022 Inspiration Challenge... be sure to click on that link to see her gorgeous card! 


This Spoon Daisy embossing folder really does all the work... I got all the play using a barely damp brush and Altenew inks.

  9. Wow, what a stunning Spoon Daisy, Michele! The dimension of the embossed flower is so great that I can't believe you used a regular 3D embossing folder. The black fine spatters are wonderful finishing touches.
