Altenew NEW Sweet Moments Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

December 3, 2021

Welcome to the Altenew NEW Sweet Moments Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway. You should have arrived here from Jaycee’s blog. Let’s get into the cards I have for you today.

My first card is featuring the new All Things Sweet Stamp Set and the Woven Basket 3D Embossing folder. I tried my hand at making a monochromatic color palette instead of the usual bright palette you might find with a stamp set like this. This is a layering stamp set so it was super easy to pull out some gray tone inks from my Altenew ink collection to make this card come to life.

The Woven 3D Embossing folder was the perfect backdrop for this card. Instead of keeping it stark white, I decided to draw one of the gray ink cubes over it to give a little color to the texture of the folder. I finished off the card with a sentiment and glossy accents over the ice cream glass.

My next card is a bit more colorful. For this card I used the Altenew Colorful Soul stamp set. Oh this stamp set is SOOO pretty to work with. I kept this card rather clean and simple and let the flowers and sentiment be the stars of the card.

The palette was a little on the softer side with my ink choices and I love the way it plays against all the white of the background. For the background, I used my score board to make the indentations of lines and it really set the mood for the pretty flowers.

And finally, my last card was made with the Altenew Pots and Plants stamp set. As soon as I saw this stamp set I knew exactly how I wanted to use it. By coloring only one of the plants on a stark black and white backdrop really makes the colored image pop! Clean art like this is right up my alley.

Also I love this stamp set as I have a similar plant in my living room. At least this one on the card was easy to care for. LOL (Not the best green thumb woman in the world. However I’m getting better at keeping my plants alive). A simple sentiment and this card was done!

Now let’s get into the giveaways. Altenew is giving away a total of $3oo in prizes!

Altenew Glint & Glimmer Hot Foil Plates, Embossing Folders and Stencils Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

November 16, 2021

(Affiliate links are used at no cost to you)

Welcome everyone to the Altenew Glint & Glimmer Hot Foil Plates, Embossing Folders and Stencils Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway. I’m so excited to see you here today. You should have arrived from Bridget’s blog. We hope to inspiration you with the new release from Altenew. Let’s get into the cards.

My first card is featuring the new Gilded Rose Hot Foil Plate. This plate is absolutely stunning! The plate is large enough to almost fill an entire A2 card base. As you can see from my card below it really is a beautiful rose!

This hot foil plate also has a coordinating stencil you can use with it. To create the look of my card I first hot foiled the rose onto a piece of white cardstock. Next I blended the card panel with Altenew Mint Choc and Altenew Pistachio inks. Once the blending was complete, I used the coordinating stencil so I could add detail to the petals of the rose. This card is even prettier in real life. I used the new Sentiments Banner Hot Foil Plates to create my sentiment strip. To cut out the sentiment strip, I used the Sentiment Banners Cover Die to die cut each strip out. I’ll now have extra strips for future cards.

My next card is featuring the new Altenew Dotty Circles 3D Embossing Folder. This embossing folder is just perfect for those quick and easy cards. All that was required to complete this card was a sentiment. I again used the Sentiments Banner Hot Foil Plate and coordinating dies. The sentiments from both cards are from the Sentiment Strips stamp set.

My last card features the Double Rainbow Stencil. It’s PERFECT for slim line cards. Just by blending the three inks in the photo, I was able to create all these lovely colors.

Paring this bold design with a simple sentiment from the Painted Greetings stamp set from Altenew and this card was complete.

Holiday Card Series 2021 – Day 3 Altenew

November 3, 2021

(Affiliate links are used at no cost to you)

Welcome back everyone. Today is day 3 of the Holiday Card Series for 2021. Altenew products will be featured today and I can’t wait to share this ink combo with you. This one might be one of my favorites. I don’t normally use pinks and purples for my holiday cards however I love this non-traditional color palette. If you want to pick up the Ink Combos Guide, make sure to visit the sidebar of the blog t get your free company.

The card is so easy to make as all you need is ink and the stencil. You can change up the color palette or just use one color for a quick background.

With having such a busy background, make sure to keep your focal image simple. You don’t want the two designs competing with each other.

This card was made using the Altenew All Is Bright Stamp set. I love this stamp set for easy and beautiful cards.

Here’s a quick tutorial. You can watch it here or over at my Youtube channel mzdanajoy. I’ve used affiliate links for your convenience at no cost to you.

Thanks for stopping by today. I’ll see you back here on Friday for another Holiday Card Series tutorial.
