My taste has changed dramatically since I started scrapbooking and cardmaking back in 2008. I remember I used to dislike flowers, when I look back at some of my first projects – none used flowers or foliage. And now? Now I can’t make a card without blooms, I think this might be due to abundance of gorgeous floral stamps that are now available from so many different manufacturers.
Today I’m sharing a card using Vintage Roses stamp set from Altenew featuring a vintage-inspired rose stamped pattern.

CARD DETAILS
The trick to stamping a pattern like this one (and stamping process not taking too much time) is stamping the base layer of all images first. So instead of stamping each color layering image from start to finish (and some of these flowers have 4 layers), I first stamped all base layers and I also used just one color of ink for all base flower layers – Blush (if you’d like to take a closer look at Altenew inks I’ve shared an ink chart HERE).
Next I filled in the spaces in between the flowers with leaves and again I used only one color of ink for all of the leaf images – Sea Glass.
To stamp everything else I used the following ink colors: Blush, Frosty Pink, Cotton Candy (for small flowers), Perfect Peach, Rouge and Blush (for large flower) and Sea Glass, Ocean Waves (for the leaves). I also used several flower center stamps from the Vintage Flowers set to fill in the empty spaces I had in between the flowers and leaves.
I also did some spotlight die cutting, I die cut a circle and a square in my stamped pattern to help spotlight the sentiment. The die cut shapes were foam mounted in place and added a bit of interest to the card. To create my sentiment I used Super Script stamp and matching die and stamped Hello; I also used additional sentiments from the Painted Butterflies set and heat embossed You Inspire Me and You’re Amazing using Platinum embossing powder.
I could not resist adding a few brass and gold sequins to my card as well as occasional clear drop here and there.

This card is amazing! If I lived in a shabby cottage – that would be the bedding pattern I’d have ;))
Outstanding Yana! Love this. I do have the Vintage Flowers set and dies from Altenew, and I use it a lot.
Hugs Vada
I do enjoy stamping patterns and I love the one you created with this set. I don’t have any Altenew sets yet, but I would love to try them out.
gorgeous
Yeah, all previous year i haven’t used any paper with ready designs, only white cardstock and did pattern myself. Floral did maybe once but after your works i always promise myself to give it a try 🙂
GORGEOUS color combo!! i’m a bit of a patterned paper hoarder, so I haven’t really needed to stamp my own backgrounds very much. but i would if i were as good as you!
Gorgeous! Love your colors! I have to say I never really liked it until I got my Misti and now it’s easier and quicker to do!
I love stamping background patterns! I love being able to make one of a kind cards for my loved ones and that is one way to ensure it is one of a kind. I loved seeing how easy you make it seem to use the Altenew Vintage Roses set…I have had to use the MISTI to get my alignment right so I will try to use it on just a block and see if I am successful so I can do quicker beautiful backgrounds!
Your card is very pretty. I so enjoy stamping patterns tho mine are usually in one colour of ink to give me a tone-on-tone look. I should try your way sometime!
Beautiful, ethereal background. I love it!
Always enjoy your videos, you make everything look so easy. I’ve never stamped patterns cause I’m always unsure of where to place the stamps but you inspired me to try it. You card is beautiful, thanks for the inspiration!
These are SO beautiful Yana, just a wonderful job on them!
Beautiful card! I don’t think I’ve stamped any patterns before so this is something I’d love to try!
Very pretty card. Love the soft look you have achieved with your ink choices. I’ve never created a pattern background but after watching your video it really does look easy.
I wouldn’t stamp a background like this card. I would get too frustrated with all the stamping. tt is very pretty.
Yana, your background stamping is absolutely gorgeous!!! I enjoy stamping pattern, especially when I cannoy find any papers that will fit withr stamp set, I love creating backgrounds 🙂
Thank you for the inspirations!
I like stamping patterns but I’m not as good at it as you!
Yay!! A video. This is so pretty Yana, I haven’t really stamped many patterns, but seeing this is very inspiring. Off to watch the video now 🙂
Thank you!
Hi Yana….actually I don’t stamp many patterns, however, seeing what you are doing certainly inspires me to do more with that technique!!! Love the Altenew stamp sets and dies!!!!Thank you for your design ideas and the video!
Paper Hugs,
Jan

I love the look of stamped backgrounds but mine don’t turn out as good as yours. These are beautiful pastel wonders. This set is so awesome.

I do have the stamp sets that you used and I will definitely try this project. I love the colors you used and your cards are always wonderful . Thank you !
Yana I love using patterned stamps and am especially pleased that more layering stamps are coming out as I don’t have the natural talent to do it myself. It’s opened up a whole new world. I’m a huge fan of yours!
Gorgeous stamping and

Another fabulous card and video, Yana! Love watching you create beautiful backgrounds, I seem to have trouble making random patterns. After watching your most recent video, I may just have to give it another try. 🙂 Thanks for all of the wonderful inspiration!
Beautiful! Thank you for the video. I am sometimes intimidated by stamping a pattern, so I don’t do it too often. I’ll have to try it again now with your tips.
SQUEAL!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Vintage Patterns you Stamp!! Such Pretty Color Combos and Designs!! =) THANKS for sharing and for the chance to WIN!! Have a FABULOUS WEEK!! =)
Beautiful cards Yana, I love your stamped backgrounds, and this vintage panel is super pretty. I have some new Altenew inks that I need to play with and the pretty peonies set, so this is great inspiration for me. Thank you for all your wonderful videos, love to see your creations come to life.
Very beautiful card Yana, as usual ! Till now I’ve never done stamping pattern because I did not have the good stamp for it ! But this week I received my Alternew order (Yeah ! Great !) and I will be able to try your technique so well explained on your video ! Thanks for sharing and for the chance to win.
I haven’t tried stamping patterns, but do want to give it a try. The result is stunning.
