I've made a second card for this month's Inspiration Challenge by Altenew. This card uses the Apothecary Garden stamp set for the vase, Sketched Florals stamp set for the flowers, and Butterfly Garden stamp set for the sentiment, all from Altenew. I used Red Cosmos, Summer Afternoon, Glacier Caves, and Frosted Foliage Fresh Dye Inks from Altenew. The glitter that may or may not show up (better in the close up) is a clear Stardust Gelly Roll pen. Sentiment is embossed with Brutus Monroe Fairy Dust embossing powder over Altenew Eucalyptus and Tsukineko Versamark inks. Splatters and top border are watercolor. Bottom section is stenciled with Chunky Chevron from The Crafters Workshop.

March 2026 Altenew Inspiration Challenge Entry
Here is my first card for this month's Inspiration Challenge from Altenew. I used their Floral Radiance stencils for the flowers and leaves, Iridescent Crystal Gem Sparkles for the flower centers, Birthday Builder Stamp Set for the sentiment, and several of their inks. I also used the Chunky Chevron stencil from The Crafter's Workshop for the background and Brutus Monroe Fairy Dust Embossing Powder on the sentiment. I was primarily inspired by the colors and the geometric pattern of the tiles on the table in the inspiration photo. I don't have any vase stamps (yet).

Altenew January 2026 Inspriation Challenge
I am entering the January 2026 @altenewllc Inspiration Challenge for the first time this month. The flowers and leaves are from their Translucent Foliage Outline Stamp Set, which includes coloring stencils and cutting dies. The words are from their Birthday Builder stamp set, and the sequins are their Satin Gold (flower centers) and Clear Iridescent (card corners). I used their Dotty Circles 3D embossing folder for the dark red background. I colored everything with @ranger_ink Distress Inks.
