Altenew August 2022 Bold & Beautiful Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in Total Prizes!)

4 August 2022

Welcome to the Bold & Beautiful Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from Nicole Watt's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Card Blog .

For today's release I created a card with the Happy Flowers Stamp Set and One Go Birthday Greetings Die.

Supplies:

Misti Stamp Positionner (or similar tool)
Sweet Dreams Crisp Ink Set
Pocket Full of Sunshine Crisp Ink Set
Mango Smoothie Artist Marker
Die Cutting tool
White cardstock

How to:

Cut out a piece of white cardstock to a card size.
Place onto your stamp positionner.
Take the first layer of the stamp of the larger flower and place it on the bottom left hand corner. Stamp the first colour (lighter shade).
Flip your card base 180° and repeat the process with the same colour. It will create a mirror image.
Remove the first stamp and place the second layer. Stamp with a darker shade. Then add the centre layers. Flipping the card each time.
Continue filling the edges of the card. Be mindful to change the stamp's position do the flower isn't always in the same position and to overlap over the edges.
Cut out some greeting strips with the One Go Birthday Greetings Die. Stamp a sentiment on it.
Place it on the card. I added some yellow cardstock to make it stand out.
To fill up any white space add some dots with an Artist Marker. I used Mango Smoothie.

Altenew July 2022 Summer Sunshine Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

1 July 2022

Welcome to the Summer Sunshine Blog Hop with Altenew. If you have hopped over from Therese Calvird's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Blog.

Summer is finally here and after a very tiring and heavy couple of months, I hope this summer break will give my family and I some time to recuperate. My dad's passing hit us so hard and every day is still filled with lots of sadness but we are able to enjoy being together. One of our favourite activities is just relaxing in the garden with a refreshing drink. The Mod Fruit Bowl Stamp set reminds me of those cool refreshing drinks and it's the perfect stamp to create a summery card.

Supplies:

Mod Fruit Bowl Stamp Set
Precision pen
Altenew Obsidian Black Ink
Maple Yellow and Fresh Lemon Crisp Inks (from the Pocketful of Sunshine set)
Just Green and Firefly (from the Green Meadows Set)
Yellow Cardstock
White Smooth Cardstock

How to:

Stamp the larger lemon in the bottom left hand corner.
Add smaller stamps around it. You can do the whole card base or just one corner. Another option is to stamp two opposite corners. The possibilities are endless.
Doodle lines around the edges.
Add a sentiment.
Cut a small strip of yellow cardstock and adhere it to the cardstock for a pop of colour.

Altenew March 2022 Folktales & StoriesCollection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

4 March 2022

Welcome to the Folktales & Stories Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from Nichol Spohr's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Blog.

In these anxious times I find it hard to create but I push myself to do it as it brings me peace and takes my mind of things. My favourite technique to keep my anxious mind busy is watercolouring. This is the layout I created with the some of the new products. I used the Rosy Blooms Stamp and Die Set.

To create my background I used the Altenew Watercolour Pencils. I chose red, orange, green and yellow shades and made a stripy watercolour background.

I stamped the images from the Rosy Blooms Stamp Set onto some watercolour cardstock. I cut them out before colouring them with the Watercolour Pencils. I used the same colours as for the background.

I picked a black and white photo so that it would stand out between all the colourful elements. My title was created with a sentiment stamp. Some enamel dots in similar colours add the final details.

What has caught your eye in this month's release? Leave a comment and tell me which product inspires you.
