Hello Altenew friends and welcome to the January 2023 Subscription Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from Mindy Eggen's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop on the Altenew blog.
I created two cards for this release. The first features the Paint A Flower Carefree Stamp Set. I decided to create a simple card using two shades of green and two shades of blue/purple. I picked out these shades from my Watercolor Brush Markers from Altenew.
To add a little bit of detail and create a border, I doodled a double line around the card's edges and added a hint of silver watercolour paint in the centres of the flowers.
My second card uses the Spark Joy Fluttering Butterflies Set. I didn't use the foil plate this time but decided to doodle around the butterflies to create the detail.
Which is your favourite? Don't forget that you can sing up for your favourite subscription.

I created three cards for this hop using
Sixties Sunshine Complete Bundle
Zero-Waste 3D Floral Cover Die
XOXO & More Die Set
Birthdays around the world stamp set
The first two cards were made with the Zero-Waste 3D Floral Cover Die. I used leftover patterned papers from various 6X6 Altenew Paper Packs. With the smaller floral elements I created a simple wreath inspired card.
My third card was made with the Sixties Sunshine Complete Bundle. I picked vibrant colours and coloured in the embossed folder image. So easy and really stunning.

Welcome to the November 2022 Marvelous Monthly Blog Hop and Giveaway. I am the last stop on the blog hop but if you have just joined you can start the hop over on the Altenew Blog. If you have hopped over from Jenny Colacicco's blog, you are almost done.
I created two projects with this month's release (and another which you have already seen on the Altenew Card blog).
My first card was created with the Craft You Life Bewitching Rose Project Kit. I love how easy it is to use these sets and create pretty projects.
My my card I used the following products:
Craft You Life Bewitching Rose Project Kit
Celebrate 6x6 Paper Pack
Spring Bouquet Crisp Ink Set
Tropical Forest Crisp Ink Set
Warm and Cozy Crisp Ink Set
Permanent Black Ink
I embossed the image using a subtle patterned paper from the Celebrate 6x6 Paper Pack. Then I used the coordinating stencil and coloured the different elements using an array of inks. The I cut out my image and popped it on some patterned paper using Altenew Foam Tape. I love how the patterned paper still shows through the layers of ink.
For my second project I used the Craft A Flower Sulfur Cosmos. I love this set so so much. I created my own coloured paper using Altenew Watercolour Brush Markers and some watercolour paper.
This set is super easy to put together and the florals are such a great size.
Curious to see how I created this card. Just watch the video below or view it on YouTube in HD.

Welcome to the Blossoming Creativity Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from Jeanette Jones's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Blog.
I created two projects using the new products from this release:
Gracious Peonies Stamp, Die and Layering Stencil.
Swallowtail Butterfly Die Set
This card was super easy to make. A quick stamp, some layered colouring using the stencil and then a simple cut with the die. I popped the image on some striped paper and added enamel dots.
For the next card I used up some left over paper to create the butterfly and created a floral backdrop using the Paint a Flower African Daisy. I coloured the image with the Altenew Woodless Coloring Pencils.

Hello and welcome to the Sticky Essentiels Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from Helen Kalb's blog, you are right on track. You can start the hop over on the Altenew Card Blog.
What is your favourite Altenew Adhesive? Mine is the Instant Dimension Foam tape. I love using it on embossed images. A tape runner doesn't stick well to embossed surfaces nor to shiny papers so I use the foam tape. It is never leaves my side.
For this card I created a watercolour background. I have noticed that my usual glue tape runner (which I love btw) doesn't adhere that well to watercoloured backgrounds. As I love adding some dimension to my projects, Altenew's Dimension Foam Tape is my go to product. Super easy and super sticky. If you prefer a flatter look, use the Ultra Sticky Tapes.
For my second card I created an embossed background with the Spring Blossom Embossing Folder. As the background isn't smooth it can be tricky to get elements to stick to it. The foam tape is for me the best way to go.
Have you seen any new adhesives that you didn't know Altenew had? Give them a try as they are AWESOME.
