Splitcoast and Alpha challenge

I have missed out on so much of this round of the Alpha challenge- but dove in today and made a card for the prompt Yo-Yo.

I used the color Yo-Yo Yellow- a retired SU color, plus dimensional flowers that could be the front and back of a Yo-Yo.



 I used a stamp set Altenew just sent out to customers, and encouraged us to create with using the hashtag #Altenewlove. 
 The image was stamped 4 times, then 4 more times.  The last 4 images were fussy cut out.  Coloring was done using Copic markers. The fussy cut flowers were popped up on dimensionals, then a dab of Wink of Stella to the centers was added. 
 I had the Altenew Piped Waffle die, a new addition to my stash,  sitting on my desk, so cut it out and used it as a stencil to add dimension to the backing of the card. 
 The backing cardstock is SU retired Yo-Yo yellow and Orchid. 

Thanks to Altenew- so pretty- and much appreciated!
