Magical Marker Techniques

This is my next class in my AECP level 2 journey. If you have not seen Altenew have a whole range of online classes that you can sign up for. This includes their AECP (Altenew Educator Certification Program) course. For my card I have used inspiration from several of the classes in the Magical Markers techniques class. This is such a fun class. I have been colouring with markers for many years but realised that I rarely use them for anything else. This shows you lots of ways to stretch your supplies which I really love.

So as well as colouring the beautiful big flowers from the Quaint Blooms stamp set I have used a marker to colour the gems that I have added to the flower centres and scattered across the card. 

For the back ground I have used the broken chevrons stencil and used markers to draw through the stencil giving a great pattern to my lines and keeping them all a uniform size. The sentiment is also from the Quaint blooms stamp set and to finish the card off I used the same markers to colour the edges of the stencilled panel and the whole card. This is so far from my normal style but I had a lot of fun putting it together and trying all of the techniques :)

I am going to enter this card for the following challenges:

Through the craft room door - Anything Goes

Crafting Happiness - Anything Goes

Get creative - Use Flowers

Thank you for taking the time to look at my blog.

Huge hugs
