If you have come from Erum Tasneem's  blog  you are right on track.

Today we are releasing 12 stamps and 8 die sets. For this layout I used the Golden Feather and the Snapshots set. I started off with a grey base added two ink colours which I used to create some embellishments (hearts and stars which I cut out by hand). 

My favourite stamp in the snapshots set is the camera. I stamped it and cut it out. I kept the rest of the layout simple so that the photo and the camera stayed the main focal point.

You can see how the layout came together in the video below. This time I didn't have time to do a voice over so it'll be a music video.

There is also a giveaway. 
To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to SIX lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and Altenew Scrapbook Blog by Thursday, November 16th for a chance to win. Six winners will be announced on the Altenew Card Blog and Altenew Scrapbook Blog on Saturday, November .

I'm also giving away a 30$ gift voucher. All you have to do is leave a comment.

Let's catch up ....

It is always the same... the SEPTEMBER whirlwind. Getting into a new schedule, driving kids to their after school activities etc... The days fly by without me even noticing. And then just like that it is the middle of the month.

I am working on quite a few projects which will be live by the end of the month. It has been a little difficult to create these last days as I lost my Popa last Thursday a little more than 8 months after my grandma Mam passed away.

Today I'll be sharing some of my creations for Altenew and later this week I'll be back with more projects.

For my first project I used the Bold Alphabet Dies as well as the Faux veneer stamp set. I used my favourite colours and introduced lots of white.

You can watch the process video here: Look Process video

The next project was made using the Circled Sentiments set. I created 3 projects and one was a card. I really enjoyed creating this one.  The Fantasy Floral  die is so amazing. It is one of my favourite products from Altenew at the moment.

This project is also made using the Circled sentiments set and I also used the Fantasy Floral  Die again.

And the last one was made using the Fantasy Floral die,

Swirlcards layouts

Hi there everyone. Today I'm going to share two layouts I created for Swirlcards. They are a French Brand and have gorgeous products. The first layout was made with their Santorini collection, a lovely summer collection with blue, white and yellows.

I also used the LOVE tag which is my favorite at the moment.

For the next layout I used lots of labels from several collections and mixed in some stars. You can see how the layout came together in the video which is below the images.
