I recently won a couple gift vouchers from Altenew so was able to make two orders. My first one came via USPS and took nearly a month to arrive, the second one came by DHL and was here in 3 days. My first parcel had the stamp set called "Book Club" and it's matching die and this is what I've used today to make my card.
I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto white card stock and used Altenew and Spectrum Noir markers to colour it in. I then die cut the image. I pair the stamp with a sentiment from Catherine Pooler "Lovely Flowers" set. I originally was only going to have some stripes across the middle of the card, but as I laid the die cut onto this thin black striped paper, I really like how it looked. I trimmed the striped paper and layered it onto some black card and then onto a white card base. I finished this off with some gold gems.
Come join in the fun and make a feminine card.
