3 ways with Altenew's charming doodles stamp set

Hello and welcome to a new "3 ways with" post. Today I am focusing on the Charming Doodles stamp set from Altenew. As always I will be showing you 3 projects all created with the same set but different looks, lets jump right in.

Water coluring using mini ink cubes

I  decided that today would be a fun time to colour using my mini ink cubes as it's quick and easy to do. I started by masking off the area where I wanted my sentiment to be using some sticky notes. I then used the Obsidian black ink to stamp all of the outline images to create a cute composition.

I then Used the following inks Heart Beat Ink, Coral Bliss Ink, Moss Ink and Frayed Leaf along with a wet brush to add colour to the images. I added some splatters using the Heart Beat ink and then used my heat tool to dry everything off. Once I removed the sticky notes I used a fine liner pen to add two lines above and where my sentiment would be stamped.  The sentiment is from the Better Together Stamp set.


Base layer stamping

For my second card I chose to use only the base layer images from the Charming Doodles Stamp set, this give such a contemporary look.  I stamped the sentiment from the Mega Greetings 3 stamp set in Obsidian black ink.

I used Fresh Lemon, Parrot and Coral Bliss to add flowers and leaves around the sentiment. The great thing about the Obsidian ink is that even when you over stamp it with a dye ink it doesn't smudge or lose any of it's crisp look.



Stamp layering

The Charming Doodles set almost feels like two sets in one in terms of the looks you can achieve, the sketched outlines are so cute and delicate but the layers are bold and impactfull. Couple them up and you have an awesome image. 

I stamped all the outlines in Obsidian Black and then used Blush, Rouge, Coral Bliss and Forest Glades.  I then added a sentiment using the Sentiment strips stamp set. I love this card, it reminds me of the wild flower area in my garden, so delicate and free.

Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to check out my projects, Please do come back tomorrow as I have something HUGE and EXCITING to share, and I'm almost ready to burst.
