Altenew Adventures Ahead Stamps/Dies/Stencils/More Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

4 June 2021

Welcome to the Adventures Ahead Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have arrived from LauraJane's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Blog.

For today's hop I focused on the new patterned paper packs and paired them with dies. This is such a fun and easy way to create cards if you are short on time.

The first set of cards were created with the Dreamy Sunset Paper Pack.

For my first card, I used the Reach for the Stars Die set. It is a large set so I kept the card very simple. Some enamel dots and doodling add subtle detail.

For my second card, I used a neutral paper from the pack and added die cuts from the Wild Flower Bitty Bits Ephemera Pack. The Anywhere With You Stamp is the perfect sentiment and I love the font used for this set. So pretty. Enamel dots add that tiny bit of extra detail once again.

For my last project, I used the colourful Rainbow Blots Paper Pack and paired it with the Craft-a-Flower Antique Rose Die Set. I didn't use all the layers of the die set and added foam tape for a more 3D look. Some splatters with Jet Black Ink Spray add a mixed media touch.

Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Lotus Outline Stamp Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($200 in Total Prizes)

22 May 2021

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

The lotus is such a spectacular flower. Its symmetry and elegant beauty are simply stunning. The lotus has a life cycle unlike any other plantIt submerges every night into river water and miraculously re-blooms the next morning. In many cultures, the flower is associated with rebirth and spiritual enlightenment.

Colouring such a wonderful flower isn't easy but I had a go at it using Altenew Valley Sunshine Artist Markers Set F.

I stamped the image to the bottom section of my card base and coloured the leaves and flowers. For the water, I used a soft blue and went over it with the Altenew Blending Marker to create a soft water look.

I love the effect the blending gave the water.

Altenew Classic Imagery Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

18 May 2021

Welcome to the Classic Imagery Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from Sandhya Iyer's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Blog .

Today's release is filled with some amazing products. It was really hard to pick a favourite but I really love all the 3D embossing folders.

I used Bunch of Balloons and Alocasia 3D Embossing Folders to create two cards.

I love making simple cards. My Bunch of Balloons card consists of two green panel which I embossed using the folder. These two pieces of cardstock are two sheets from the Green Meadows Gradient Cardstock. I made sure the sides would match up and then I added some details using a white pen.

I kept the sent simple and used the For You Fancy Die Set.

For my second card, I embossed the Alocasia leaves on a panel of white cardstock. I added some coloured details using the Altenew Woodless Watercolor Pencils.

As focal point, I stamped a butterfly using the Dovetails Butterflies Stamp Set and cut it out with coordinating die. I used the same colours as the details on the leaves. A simple SMILE sentiment with an enamel dot finish it off.
