Happy Tuesday, all! I hope all of you are staying safe and healthy. With everything uncertain, it is easy to feel anxious and concerned. One of the great methods of finding some inner peace is to bury yourself in a creative environment and get crafty! I hope today’s project and tutorial will give you some inspiration.
Altenew released brand new stamps, dies, papers, 6 mini cubes, and mask stencils today. I chose one of my favorite stamps from today’s collection to create a card that features a watercolored look with just simple stamping!
I have all the steps you need to know to create this card in the video tutorial below. So I will be brief on the blog post and share closed up photos. Enjoy the video tutorial!
Below are some project photos to get you close to the finished card:
