Altenew Build-A-Flower: Fuchsia Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

1 October 2019

Welcome to the Build-A-Flower October Blog Hop and Giveaway. This month's BAF set is Fushia. It is a dainty set that will give you many options for your projects. If you have hopped over from LauraJane 's blog you are right on track. You can always start the hop on the Altenew Card Blog.

I didn't know where to start with this set and had no ideas for a card or a layout so I decided to create a piece I could frame. First I created some watercolour circles using the Altenew Watercolor Brush Refills. Once they were dry I stamped the Fuchsia images in similar colours making sure that they would slightly overlap with the watercoloured circles. A sentiment finished off my piece. Now all I have to do is find a matching frame

Simon Says Stamp: STAMPtember Exclusive with Altenew.

24 September 2019


Who doesn't love playing with a new stamp set and this exclusive set from Altenew is such a cute and easy stamp set to use. I whipped up and card in about 15 minutes. My layering was a bit sloppy but I wanted a more artsy and free style look.


The Spring Bouquet Ink Set from Altenew made the process so much easier as I had all the colours I needed in one set.

Altenew September 2019 Stamp/Die/Stencil Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

5 September 2019


Welcome to the September Stamp/Die Release. If you have hopped over from Laurie Willison's blog you are right on track. You can start the hop on the Altenew Card Blog.


For today's blog hop I created a layout using the Flower Garden Stamp Set. I wanted it to be simple but colourful so I decided to stamp the floral images in black on the white cardstock.
I also stamped a couple of images on some coloured patterned paper from the 6x6 Summer Garden Paper Pack. I also fussy cut some flowers from one of the 12x12 papers from the Live Your Dream collection. 

To create my title, I used a chipboard element from the Live Your Dream collection and paired it with the alphabet set from the same collection.


What caught your eye in today's blog hop?

Altenew August 2019 Stamp/Die/Stencil Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

8 August 2019

 Welcome to the August Stamp/Die/Stencil Release Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have hopped over from Laura Volpes's blog then you are right on track. You can start the hop on the Altenew Card Blog.

For today's hop, I created a card using my Misti tool to create a symmetrical look. This is really easy to do with a stamping tool.


How to:


  1. Place your white piece of card (4.25" by 5.5") in the corner of your stamping tool. 
  2. Place the stamp in the correct position in the opposite corner. I decided to let the image drop over the edge. 
  3. Stamp the first layer then flip the card 180° and stamp the same image in the opposite corner.$
  4. Stamp your second image and flip again. 
  5. Continue until you are done. 

By using the stamping tool, you will not have to remove the image from your tool. All you need to do is flip the cardstock. This process will help you speed up cardmaking especially if you need to create a whole batch of cards. 

Prizes:
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 8/14/2019 for a chance to win.
