Our first hop is a blog hop and it couldn’t be easier to enter. All you have to do is leave a comment on this blog post as well as those of the other amazing designers in this hop. You can see the full list, with links to each blog, below.

Winners will be announced on the Alex Syberia Designs blog on the 23rd October 2022. A full list of participating designers is located below! Let’s get started!

For my first card I am using the gorgeous new Life is Good stamp set! I love floral stamps and this set is so beautiful! It also has coordinating dies, as well as a layering stencil for your coloring! The possibilities are endless! So let’s get started!

I started by stamping the floral image onto Fabriano Hot press card stock. I prepped the paper for heat embossing and stamped the image 2 times using Versa Fine Clair ink. I then heat set the image using clear embossing powder from WOW. I wanted to watercolor these gorgeous florals using my Karin markers. I worked in layers using my markers, allowing each layer to dry in between. I continued to color the florals adding layers of color until my images were colored.

Once my coloring was complete I added a bit of shading around the images. Next I chose a sentiment from the stamp set. I stamped and heat embossed the image using white embossing powder onto black card stock. Next I die cut the sentiment using the coordinating die! I LOVE the added die cuts for sentiments too!

To complete my card I trimmed my watercolor floral panel and adhered this to an A2 card base. I then added foam tape to my sentiment and adhered this to the card panel.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I am so EXCITED for Alex and I am incredibly proud of her! Be sure to check the blog hop list below! I know you will love all the new stamps, dies, and stencils, as well as the beautiful inspiration!

For today’s project I am using the beautiful Leaf Prints stamp and coordinating die set. For the leaves I stamped the leaves using Distress Inks.  I applied the inks to the leaves in various colors and spritzed the stamp with water before stamping. I repeated the process until I had the colors I was looking for. Next I die cut them using the coordinating dies.  For the background I used the Margot Tile embossing folder! I adhered the layers together, added cheesecloth,  and cardboard behind the leaves for added texture. I completed the card with a sentiment and splatters!
