Hello everyone! Today I’m very excited to be joining Altenew's A Year in Review Blog Hop. Altenew such a great company with amazing talented designers. And I’m very pleased to be able to show you the Top of my cards of this year. You probably came from Anna. If not – you may consider starting from the beginning at Altenew blog and see what other members of Altenew’s design team have come up with (and also you have a chance to win a prize on each hop node).
Всем привет! Последнее время я редко пишу в блог, но сегодня это того стоит. Приготовьтесь будет длинно! Сегодня я принимаю участие в блог-хопе Altenew A Year in Review в котором они показывают лучшие открытки с их штампами за этот год. Мне очень приятно получить такое приглашение, так как все знают о моей безграничной любви к их штампам и чернилам. И оказалось невероятно сложно, выбрать из своих открыток лучшие, потому что я люблю их все, но конечно акварельные открытки самые выигрышные. Поэтому начну с них.
My first project features the Beautiful Day stamp set. I used my favorite watercolor technique and Altenew Crisp Dye Ink. For the blossoms I used Ruby Red and Coral Berry. For the leaves I used Forest Glades. I love Altenew inks so much, because the ink colors are so clear and vibrant and they are suitable for many techniques! The sentiment from Remember This stamp set.
Stamps: Beautiful Day, Remember This
Inks: Ruby Red, Coral Berry, Forest Glades
Эта открытка моя самая любимая. Здесь я использовала акварельную технику и чернила Altenew. Как-то спонтанно она получилась, я хотела повторить синюю, но в другом цвете, а получилось даже лучше чем хотелось. В инстаграме я уже несколько раз натыкалась на копии этой открытки, и это прямо-таки очень приятно. Значит не зря старалась.
My next card features the Beautiful Day stamp set and Altenew Crisp Dye Inks. I made this card in "autumn" color shades, using the same set of stamps.
Stamps: Beautiful Day
Inks: Dark Chocolate, Forest Glades, Frayed Leaf, Mango Smoothie, Crimson
Вторая открытка с использованием того же набора штампов, но выполнена в осенней цветовой гамме. Мне она напоминает лужу, много брызг, желтые листья, и отражение неба в воде.
This next card feautered Wild Hibiscus stamp set for my Mom. I like this set because it's so beautiful but simple to use.
Stamps: Wild Hibiscus
Inks: Ocean Waves, Dusk, Lagoon
Третья открытка со штампами Wild Hibiscus для моей любимой мамы . Очень нравится мне этот набор за эффектность и простоту использования. Пайетки и дропсы тут как утренняя роса на цветах.
Next card features the Magnolias For Her stamp set. I think it looks like a stained glass. For this card I stamped the background with one flower in this set and added Gold Glitter embossing powder by Zing. Then I coloring flowers using Altenew Inks.
Stamps: Magnolias For Her
Inks: Ocean Waves, Frayed Leaf
Следующая открытка с магнолиями. Здесь я хотела добиться эффекта витражного стекла. Наштамповала фон одним цветочком и посыпала золотой пудрой Zing. А затем просто раскрасила все теми же чернилами Altenew.
Next card features To The Moon stamp set for my boyfriend. I made this galaxy background using distress ink.
Следующая открытка - галактическая, для любимого человека. Здесь я использовала набор To the Moon. Наштамповала фон оттиском луны, покрыла золотой пудрой и вырезала большой круг. Ну и как бы сделала таким образом Землю, а луна там маленькая серебряная. Галактику тонировала дисстресами.
Stamps: To The Moon
For this card I used Painted Flowers stamp set. I stamped the images in the corners and add a little bit water for the watercolor effect. Sentiment from Wild Hibiscus stamp set.
Stamps: Painted Flowers
Inks: Coral Berry, Forest Glades
Очень простая и нежная открыточка с набором штампов Painted Flowers. Тут все вообще очень просто, сделала оттиски и размыла чернила водой.
This card also one of my favorites. I used Beautiful Day and Peony Bouquet stamp sets. The edges are toned with blue inks, berries and leaves stamped over it, then covered with golden Zing embossing powder.
Эта открытка тоже одна из любимых. Здесь я использовала наборы Beautiful Day и Peony Boquet. Тонировала края открытки синими чернилами, и поверх наштамповала ягодок и веточек, покрыла золотой пудрой и монохромно раскрасила.

Stamps: Beautiful Day, Peony Bouquet, Studio Katia
Inks: Dusk, Ocean Waves, Sea Glass
Next card features Vintage Flowers and To the Moon stamp sets.
Следующая открытка с окошком и сакурой под луной. Наштамповала цветочки, вырубила кружочек, и внутри вкелила луну.

Stamps: Vintage Flowers, To The Moon
Inks: Coral Berry, Frosty Pink, Evening Gray ,Morning Frost
This card won in the Altenew July inspiration challenge, which I'm very proud of. I used small flowers from Vintage Flowers stamp set, and a little washed out.
С этой открыткой я победилa в июльском челлендже, безумно рада этому, хотя сама открытка уже не так мне нравится. Тут тоже использовала цветочки из Vintage Flowers, и немного размыла водой.

This card definitely my favorite. I used "Stamp Kissing" technique, leaves from Beautiful Day stamp set and Wood Pallet Background stamp. I think leaves look like malachite green.
Эта открытка определенно мой фаворит. Тут я использовала технику Stamp Kissing, листики из Beautiful Day и деревянный фоновый штамп Wood Pallet Background. Листья получились как-будто малахитовые.

Stamps: Beautiful Day, Wood Pallet Background

Another card features Beautiful Day stamp set in my favorite watercolor technique.
Очередная открытка с акварельной цветочной темой, тоже любимая, не могу ее не включить в этот список, они хоть и похожи с красной, но совершенно разные.
Stamps; Beautiful Day, Studio Katia
Inks: Ocean Waves, Dusk, Lagoon
And the last card features Wild Hibiscus stamp set again. I love this lilack and mint color combination.
Ну и наконец последняя открытка тоже с гибискусами. Люблю сочетание мятного и лилового.
Stamps: Wild Hibiscus
Inks: Lavender Fields, Deep Iris, Lagoon
