Eny/AECP/Polychromatic/Altenew

Hello everyone,

Eny here, with another fun card share, for the Altenew Academy Educators Program. For this project, I dove in to the Polychromatic class, specifically the Monochromatic lesson. I love being challenged to use just one main color or element in my designs, and this portion of the class truly inspired me. Not only with the design process, but also to get out of my comfort zone a bit. 

For today’s card, I used the Altenew Bold Blossom stamp set. This set has a buildable set of images, but also a full silhouette of the rose. I used the latter, and stamped the images several times over red cardstock, with Altenew Crisp Dye Ink Ruby Red. I added shading and depth to each rose, by using alcohol markers in the same color family. I have the past year, come to love ArtnFly Sketch Markers. Absolutely affordable, and the best part , is that they are refillable.


I began coloring from darkest to lightest, making sure I was blending each color along the way.  The color is rich, and vibrant, and worked well with the ink and cardstock color. I wanted my main panel to be smaller than my base, so I trimmed the panel down to 3x5.50. Before adhering, I created a colored strip, using my alcohol markers. I used a lei eve of scrap white cardstock, and did various long , vertical lines in two shades of red. I adhered that piece on the left side on my base, and with foam tape, I adhered the main panel. 

Finished my card with a sentiment from the Inked Flora stamp set, and splattered some Perfect Pearls Red, to give a little extra detail.

I hope you enjoyed this quick walk through and showcase of my latest project, and that it inspired you to create something today.

Happy Crafting,
Eny Dunn

    Thats so rad. I am so scared of red splatters! They always end up looking like blood LOL but yours look very nice!
    Thank you for submitting your work to the AECP assignment gallery.

  Hello everyone! I'm back, with my final project for the Altenew Academy Level 2 classes! Todays project features techniques learned during the Masking Unleashed class. I created a fun and vibrant, yet simple card, that i hope inspires you to try out some of these techniques yourself. For this card I will be using the Altenew Wild Hibiscus stamp set, as my main images. I begin by trimming a sheet of heavy weight white cardstock, down to 4.5x5.50 inches. I stamp my first flowers close to the center of the panel. I will stamp this same image, over Avery Removable Label sticker, and cut a long the silhouette to create my "mask". I remove the backing from the label, and then adhere on top of the stamped image on my panel. This allows for foreground and background details on my panel. I repeated the mask process for each flower image (or whatever image being used), so I can fully cover the images on my panel, before continuing my card. Before removing the masks, I will add co

  Hello everyone! I'm back with another Altenew Educator Program class project, and this one is by far one of my favorite classes. Not only is Therese Calvird an absolute gem of an instructor, but she made it fun and interesting with new (and some well known) techniques. I begin by trimming a heavy weight sheet of white cardstock down to 6x6 and lay the Altenew Woven Stencil right on top, and secure it with some washi tape. I will be using Distress Oxide Inks Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick and Seedless Preserves to transfer the stencil image on to my paper. I will go from lighest to darkest colors, making sure to blend each color as I go.  Once all the color is applied, I remove my stencil, and then trim the cardstock down to a standard A2 American size card (4.25x5.50) . Using a circle die, I will cut a portion of the left side of my panel, and I will be left with an opening or window.  Using the Altenew Crisp Dye Inks Soft Lilac, Lavender Fields, Deep Iris and Midnight Violet ; I begi
