Hi, friends! I’m sharing my entry for the Altenew June 2025 Inspiration Challange (click to go to Altenew blog post.) This month’s challenge is hosted by Samantha Pfrimmer and the goal was to create a card inspired by this photo:
My mind automatically turned to a lily when I saw the colors. Luckily for me, I have the Altenew Craft a Flower: Lilly Layering Die Set. I bought this die set on sale a while back and had never used it. Now was the time! I blended some Snapdragon ink onto one area of white cardstock and some Grass Field on another and die cut the pieces for two lilies. I then broke out my Altenew Artist Markers and started adding shading to all of the pieces. I set the pieces aside to dry.
I used the Trellis Stencil and Delectable Delights inks to create the background panel. I used the Almond Butter ink on the outside of the stencil and Hazelnut on the inside. It was adhered to an A2 kraft card base with double sided tape.
The sentiment came from the Scripted Sentiments Die Set. I cut the shadow from kraft cardstock and colored it with an Evergreen marker. I cut the sentiment from white cardstock and colored it with the Matcha marker. I then glazed over each with Icy Lemonade, glued them together, and adhered it to the card base.
I glued the flowers and leaves together and then used orange acrylic markers to add some details to the flowers. I glazed the leaves and stems with the Icy Lemonade marker and adhered all pieces down to the card. The final step was to add some shimmer with a Nuvo Shimmer Pen and add some Green Meadow Enamel Dots.
I'm truly happy with how this card turned out! The lilies are so pretty and look great set against the neutral trellis. I hope that you enjoy it, too!
Thanks for spending some time here on the blog with me today. Until next time . . . be well!
