AECP Level 1 Final exam
I am on my final challenge for Level 1 in the Altenew Educators Certification Program (AECP) and I’m excited to take up the challenge and show you what I’ve learned.
Here are the rules for the challenge:
- create two sets of cards: a “His” and a “Hers” plus DIY coordinating gift packaging
- the cards need to be a cohesive set for various occasions and packaged together as a group
- Utilize at least 3 components from the classes in AECP level 1
- Use at least one recycled element (in either the cards or the packaging)
AECP Level 1 Techniques I used:
1- let it shine
2- Clean & Simple Boutique Cards
3- Stencil Technique
4- Easy die cutting technique
For these cards, I first chose a color theme that I would use throughout the project. This would give the cards a cohesive look in the end. The colors I chose were pink, yellow, white, and turquoise.
Please check my video where I went through all the cards

Let’s start with “HERS” CARDS

Clean & simple: Single Layer card
Stencil technique: Used Paste to give extra texture to my card

Clean & simple: I kept the flowers uncolored so I do not hide the glitter embossed powder.
Easy Die-cutting: I chose a geometric paper and cut it in half to add interest to my card.

Clean & simple: I kept the flowers uncolored since I have a busy background.
Let it shine: I splattered gold metallic watercolor.

Clean & simple: I stamped my flower on pattern paper and uncolored the flowers.
Easy Die-cutting: I fussy cut my stamped sentiments

Now Let’s see “HIS” CARDS
AECP Level 1 Techniques I used:
1- let it shine
2- Layered stamping
