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!

The #Altenewlove stamp looks beautiful with your Copic coloring, and that little dab of Wink of Stella in the centers always adds that perfect bit of magic. I'm sure it feels great to finally get that new die and stamp set onto a card!

I just shared a new post you are invited to read.
