Altenew Vintage Galore Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

January 4, 2022

Happy New Year and welcome to the Altenew Vintage Galore Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway. You should have arrived here from Norine’s blog.

My cards today are featuring the Altenew Folk Flower stamp and stencil and Here For You stamp set. These stamp sets make beautiful cards. The first card using the Folk Flower stencil is soo pretty to work with. Using very soft colors from Altenew I was able to create this mint inspired card. The colors with the stark black really look beautiful.

My second card using the Here For You stamp set might just be my favorite. These flowers were a dream to watercolor with my Altenew Watercolor Markers. I paired it with the Splatter Hot Foil Plate. These two products together will help you achieve cards with a wow factor.

Altenew: Paint-A-Flower: Sweet Pea Release blog hop

December 22, 2021

Welcome to the Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Sweet Pea Release blog hop. You should have arrived here from Teresa’s blog. Let’s get into the card.

My card today was kept to a simple color palette of black and white. Using this color palette really puts the focus on the Sweet Pea. I stamped the image onto black cardstock with Versamark ink and sprinkled it with white embossing powder. Before I heat set it, I also stamped out a simple happy birthday sentiment to be heat embossed as well.

After I finished the heat embossing, I trimmed down the black cardstock so I could layer it on a piece of matte silver card panel which as a 1/4″ larger than the black panel.

Now it was time to adhere this panel to an A2 card base and add a few matte silver pearls to finish off the card.

As a reminder Altenew has a Paint-A-Flower Monthly Subscription Plan. This is a monthly subscription plan for our Paint-A-Flower. When signed up, you are guaranteed a spot in our monthly Paint-A-Flower releases and will receive a set each month – at a specially discounted price! ($15.99 →$12.99).

Altenew NEW Year-End Celebration Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

December 17, 2021

Welcome Altenew NEW Year-End Celebration Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes). You should have arrived here from Tenia. Today’s release is all about celebrations. Let’s take a peek at the card I made.

I decided that a dramatic card was necessary to kick off this celebration. The products I used for this card are the Lovely Daisies die set and the Mega Stamp Frame die set. These two dies set work so beautifully together. I used Concord & 9th Grapefruit, Sorbet, Buttercup, Stardust, Parsley and Evergreen cardstock for the flower. And the sentiment was made with C&9 Grapefruit card stock. The black cardstock is Hero Arts Pitch Black.

Pairing these two products together on a black card base really makes the card pop. For the background, I used my score board to add some texture to my card with vertical lines. This is such an easy way to make a simple card base stand out.

You could also use an embossing folder with a clean design that doesn’t overpower the flower as well for texture.

Now let’s talk about giveaways.To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 2 lucky winners and a $25 gift certificate to 8 winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or each designer’s blog post on the blog hop list below by 12/23/2021 for a chance to win. Altenew will draw 10 random winners from the comments left on each stop of this blog hop and announce the winners on the Altenew Winners Page on 12/25/2021.

Next on the hop is Emily. Have a great day hopping through the designer’s blogs. Good luck everyone.
