Altenew January 2020 Stamp/Die/Stencil Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

24 January 2020

Welcome to the January 2020 Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have come from Svitlana Shayevich's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop on the Altenew Card Blog.

For today's hop, I created a layout with the Bold Floral Drape Stamp and Die Set. This stamp set features a unique layering style to create gorgeous cover patterns and floral arrangements. The set features a beautiful 5.5 x 5.5 negative floral pattern stamp that can be used as-is or in combination with floral stamps that fit right into the negative spaces. You may stamp the large image with a light-coloured ink on white or coloured card stock to get a subtle background pattern, or you may stamp it in darker colours for a bold look.

I opted for teal and pink and created a soft background on some 8.5" by 11" white smooth cardstock and added separate flowers on top.

A couple of frames break up the soft rounded edges of the flowers and the black patterned paper makes the photo pop off the page.

I love the versatility of the set and how easy it is to use.

To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 6 lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Scrapbook Blog by 1/30/2020 for a chance to win.

Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Poppy Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

22 January 2020

Welcome to the Paint-A-Flower Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from LauraJane 's blog, you are on the right track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Card Blog.

Altenew's Paint-A-Flower stamp sets are released monthly and celebrate the beauty of a wide variety of flowers! Each stamp set features an outline image of a gorgeous floral arrangement, just waiting to be painted or coloured with your favourite medium. There's no need for you to spend time layering and masking images, as we have designed these sets to allow you to stamp once then colour!

This month's flower is the POPPY. It is one of my favourites. It grows in the fields around my village and I love seeing those pops of red in the fields.

I created a card with the stamp set and used my Altenew Watercolor Palette to add colour to the background and flower. It is so easy to do.

I decided to stamp the image with embossing ink and add white embossing powder. You will get a crisp white edge and the watercolouring is a lot easier because the embossed lines will keep you colour from going outside the edges.

TIP: use good quality watercolour paper as you'll be able to play around with the colour a lot more.

To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $30 gift certificate to 6 lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Scrapbook Blog by 1/28/2020 for a chance to win.
