Marvelous Monthly Series Release
This is the Build a Garden Monthly Release from Altenew.
What a beautiful open stamp, die and stencil set, the Cheerful Coreopses. It is a large stamp set and lends itself to coloring in any medium.
Rather than only using a portion of the stamp, I opted to create an A9 card (8 1/2 x 5 1/2). I want you to see the full beauty of this wonderful stamp set.
The first order of business was to heat emboss the stamp set using the Antique Gold Pigment Ink. I used the included stencil to color these gorgeous florals with the Warm and Cozy Crisp Dye Inks set. I colored my background with Pocketful of Sunshine Crisp Dye Ink.
Cheerful Coreopses Finishing Touches
For the final touches I added some gold sequins, and thin ribbons at the bottom of the card. Lastly, I mounted my finished card onto a complimentary colored card base. This card was a joy to create.
Thanks for stopping by.

Hi Rachael. This is my first time to your blog. I make large cards and I like to see other crafters make them too. I love how this stamp fills up the whole card. The colors you chose for the Cheerful Coreopsis just make me smile. I love the ribbon and gold gems too. I can’t wait to see what you make next.
Love, love, love the florals in orange shades.
