It was time to try the last class homework for Level 1. I watched the videos again to review what the task was. I also looked at the postings on the homework gallery. That helped, too. I selected the large stamp from the Sketchy Floral Altenew set. I stamped the image in black ink on mixed media paper. I used several different shades of Altenew pink ink cubes for painting. I went for a loose painted flower. When dry a bit, I added a second color for shading. I used a green Zig marker for the branches/twigs. When dry, I die cut the piece using the rounded corner die from My Favorite Things. I added a stenciled inked background using a light blue distress ink. I assembled the card that included a oval die cut stamped hello with a gold thread bundle behind the oval. I then added yellow and pink Nuvo drop accents. When planning for this assignment, I had to reflect on what technique worked best for me and the resources that I had. I was pleased with the painted card.

So pretty!
Thanks so much!
