**VIDEO + GIVEAWAY** Monochromatic Layering Images

September 19, 2016

Happy Monday! What better way to start a brand new week than celebrating a brand-new release? Altenew just released 15 dies, 12 amazing new inks, and 36 reinkers!! (can I get a woo hoo??) So, we are celebrating the release with some great project inspirations and giveaways!

altenew_september2016bloghop

I wanted to share something really simple and easy way for you to enjoy these new colors for your projects. A monochromatic look is clean and simple, yet it has some fun effects to it. So, I wanted to bring that look to the projects for today.

nyp_0489

It is a bit hard to see in this photo, but behind the vellum piece is a monochromatic background with 2 color shades: I used the Puffy Heart ink pad for the outline image and the Rose Quartz ink pad for the partial image from the Remember This Stamp Set.

Curious to see how you can create this card? Check out my brand-new video tutorial above or here.

nyp_0503

I created another card using the same technique, but with different color shades this time. I used the Volcano Lake ink pad and the Mountain Mist ink pad for this. Teal color shades bring a whole different look on these florals!

nyp_0497

You guessed it right, these are the brand-new colors from today’s release. In fact, below you can check out the whole 12 colors. Aren’t these just lovely?

    Good morning and happy Saturday lovlies!! 👋🏻👋🏻 I just realized my last post about 3-4 months ago was a glance at my studio. Lots of things happened in the past few months and Ive been just too stressed out that I lost my desire to craft. 😣Its been a rough yr for everyone and Im ready for a new start! 😍 Are you?? Im going to start working towards getting some routines where I can feel better and add creativity back to life. Why wait till Jan? We can start now 💕

I just moved and finally got around to finishing up my studio. Im such a perfectionist that it took me a while to get everything where I wanted. 😅 Im happy how it turned out and grateful that I can still have a place to work and craft. Im excited to share projects with you soon 🥰🥰🥰

    Took a couple of days off this week to recharge - mental break helps a lot! 👍🏻 While I enjoyed stay-home break, I finished swatching all of #danielsmithwatercolors - now I’ll build my own palette from these and start doing some watercolor with them. Seeing all these made me really happy 🥰🥰 Swatching watercolors are one of my fav ways to distress. What creative projects are you working on this weekend?? #watercolorswatches #watercolor #danielsmithwatercolor #danielsmithartistsmaterials #colorswatches

    I decided to do something new and challenging during this #stayathome time. Took a beginner calligraphy class by @piecescalligraphy and I cant believe how fast 90min went by!! 😍😍 I have a lot of practice to do but really enjoyed learning. These are some of the things we did. My p’s are pretty horrible 😂😂 Cant wait for the next session!

    Happy Monday everyone- 💕💕 I was itching for a change so the other day I moved things around a bit in my studio. (This happens more often than not 😂) Even just a tiny bit of change can bring a big difference and give a fresh feel to your daily norm. Controlling what we can and not losing hope 🙏🏻 I wish you a fabulous and lovely week ahead 💙

    More therapeutic watercoloring session - I find taking the time to color each image with watercolor really helps me to relax. I think it has to do with a slow moving, soft transition of the pigments and water.

This card was made using a brand new #altenewstatementflowers stamp set and #altenewspringgarden
