Flower in Space

Hi there! I know, that title sounds strange, but today as a part of the Altenew 3D Floral Focus class we were challenged to make a floral card using patterned paper and washi tape.

Wouldn’t you know it, the only Altenew patterned paper I own is the Celestial 6×6 paper pack. (Edited to add….since then I have ordered more and visited Scrapbook.com for the third time this week. Lol.)

Anyway, a space flower is kinda cool, right?

I used the celestial paper pack for the largest portion of the flower (the blues and purples) and some Gold Lined Washi tape for other portions of the flower. Those striped leaves are from the same paper pack. I kinda like striped leaves. 😉

To mimic those stripes, I used gold slim washi on the bottom of the panel to create 2 stripes. Then I added a little Chipped Sapphire ink blending to the top of the panel to balance that out. The struggle is real sometimes, Lol!

I saw Therese use gold foil paper on one of her die cut flowers and it was all over after that. I HAD to use gold foil paper for a layer. I used it on the smaller flower as the top layer; and also in the middle of the large flower. Love.

That sentiment is glorious and it’s from the Altenew Versatile Vases set. I heat embossed that on the Celestial paper and popped it up with foam tape.

In the process of making this card, I ended up with extra flowers and leaves. So I thought…why not put together another card?

Here’s my BONUS card:

I have to say, I’m really enjoying this class and creating some cards that have stretched my imagination.

There’s only one day left! Now excuse me while I pick up more supplies from Scrapbook.com. 🙂

Here’s my supply list! I use affiliate links where possible to help pay for blog costs and allow me to continue to bring you fun projects like these. Thanks for your support!
