Hello! Today I have another card share for my Altenew Educators Certification Program. This time, I was inspired by Jennifer Rzasa in the Clean & Simple Boutique Cards class.

Clean & Simple definitely does not come easy for me, but Jennifer suggested adding a little something extra like foil or embossing powder. This gives the card a bit more flair and still remains clean & simple.

Here’s my take, (it is difficult to capture the shine of the gold in photos, so please keep scrolling for more pictures):

I just love the look of this stamp set (Build-A-Flower: Anemone)! I used a variety of purple inks to get this look. Since I don’t have my Altenew inks yet, I combined both Distress Ink and Distress Oxides to get this look.

The idea was to add a gold embossed stem to the Anemone, but this stamp set doesn’t have any stems, so I drew one on using a Versamarker!

I have a video below to show you the process, or watch on YouTube:

Just imagine all the different color combinations you can try on this flower. I love the big change in colors I got here, but for a more subtle effect you could simply use one or two colors and double, even triple stamp in that color.

I hope you enjoyed this project today. I often get asked what products I’ve used, so I have a list below. I use affiliate links, when available, at no extra cost to you.

Love this Anemone set! Thanks so much for stopping by.
