VIDEO: How I Created Two Cards Out of One! | Creative Coloring with Erum

by Erum Tasneem

Well hello there, everyone! Erum here with two cards to share. I actually planned to make only one but as you know by now, I don't plan my cards and often mess up. Sometimes, the mistakes are fixable. This time, well… watch the video to find out!

Card making tutorial using Altenew Nature Blossoms Stamp Set | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0Today, I am using some newly released Altenew products, namely Nature Blossoms, Checkerboard, and Mega Label Love Stamp Sets. I will pair these with the Terrific Tags Die Set.

Altenew Nature Blossoms Stamp Set | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0To begin, I inked the Checkerboard Stamp Set partially with Obsidian Pigment Ink and stamped my panel. Next, I die cut one of the tags and colored it in blue and green using the Artists' Watercolors.

Then, I stamped the Nature Blossoms images onto plain cardstock in Obsidian Pigment Ink and adhered them with foam tape. The sentiment is from the Mega Label Love Stamp Set.

The images on the next card were originally intended for the card above, but they didn't look good. Hence, I used plain stamped ones on the previous one instead.

To color the images, I used a black Prismacolor pencil and a blending stump.

Here is a look at both the cards together. You can say one looks a bit feminine and the other would work for the men in our lives, right?

Erum, do you think we are heading to a mixed media, grunge/collage style?

Great cards. I think the one with the tag would make an excellent masculine card. Love the grays you got by using the blending stump with the black pencil. Elegant card!
