Altenew July 2022 Summer Sunshine Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

July 1, 2022

Welcome to the Altenew July 2022 Summer Sunshine Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes). You should have arrived here from Laurie’s blog. The release has a great summer vibe and will make your summer cards look oh so fabulous.

Let’s get into my card. I used the Altenew Monsteras and Quotes Stamp Set, Monsteras and Quotes Simple Coloring Stencil and the Altenew Monsteras and Quotes Die Set. I love very graphic leaves and this stamp set has just that AND fantastic sentiment to go along with it.

I kept my card very clean and simple. Lots of white space along with black and white polka dot washi tape to frame out the sentiment panel. Stamping the leaves in Altenew Black ink and then using the stencil with Altenew Bamboo and Altenew Grass Fields inks really makes the leaves pop. Using the coordinating the dies helps to trim them out nicely.

The cleanness of just the three colors of black, white and green truly makes this card a stunner.

Altenew is running a free gift promotion to celebrate the release.

Altenew June 2022 Fine & Dandy Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

June 21, 2022

Hey everyone. Welcome to the Altenew June 2022 Fine & Dandy Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway. You should have arrived here from Reiko’s blog ***Note: Due to strict regulations in Japan, you might not be able to leave a comment on her blog post. Let’s get into the cards I have for you today.

My first card is featuring the new Freesia Die, Freesia Hot Foil Plate and coordinating Freesia Coloring Stencil.  These coordinating products helped me create the beautiful card you see below. 

I really enjoy working with products that make creating cards easy. When purchasing the Freesia Hot Foil/Die/Stencil bundle you have everything you need to start creating.

Add in a simple background element like the Altenew Scallops Cover Plate and a quick sentiment from the Altenew Bold Sentiments stamp set and your card is complete.

My next card is featuring the new Altenew Exquisite Marble Hot Foil Plate. My word this makes on gorgeous card. I used brown foil and the beautiful Altenew Brushed Rose Metallic Cardstock to create this background.

To be honest, the photo does not give this card justice.

Adding a simple thanks die and a few coordinating sequins and this card was ready for the mail.

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 06/27/2022 for a chance to win.

Hello everyone. Today is release day for the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Kit for June 2022. You should have arrived here from Channin’s blog. This month’s kit is full of mermaid and underwater happiness. The large mermaid in the kit is so pretty and a dream to color.

Head under the sea with our June My Monthly Hero release. A beautiful mermaid greets you, with hair flowing and tail shimmering. She’s accompanied by a colorful fish and jelly, with seagrass and coral surrounding her. Pearls are an accent to this kit, with an image, messages, and embellishments uniting the theme.

For today’s card I used a few of the Hero Arts Liquid Watercolors. You may have heard me mention before that I love watercoloring. It’s so peaceful for me. I also have a few tips to share with you on hot to create the clouds you see on my card above.

Let’s get into the tutorial. You can watch it here on my blog or over on my Youtube channel mzdanajoy.

Altenew June 2022 Today is the Day Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

June 3, 2022

Welcome to the Altenew June 2022 Today is the Day Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway. You should have arrived here from Natalie’s blog. Let’s get into the hop.

 

My card today is featuring the new Altenew Climbing Leaves stamp set and coordinating Climbing Leaves die. Creating my card was so much fun. Using white cardstock, I blended on a base color of Altenew Bamboo ink to create a gorgeous green backdrop for my leaves. Next I stamped the Climbing Leaves stamp set in Altenew Parrot ink.

Altenew June Release

Using the coordinating die I die cut out the leaves. For a pop of color behind the die, I used the Altenew two pieces of Rouge card stock from the Red Sunset Gradient Cardstock set. Using Altenew Rouge ink I stamped out a few sentiments from the Altenew Bold Sentiments stamp set. These sentiments were popped up on the top of the card. Next the card panel was placed onto a white card base measuring 6×6.

 

My next card was created using a sentiment from the Climbing Leaves stamp set and the Altenew Linked Ovals Embossing Folder. A bright yellow really allowed the embossing folder to create a beautiful border for the sentiment.

 

When using embossing folders, stretch your design by cutting the design in half so a sentiment will fit nicely in between. A few yellow gems finished off this card.

 

For my last card I used the Altenew Sentimental Florals stamp set and coordinating Sentimental Florals stencil and dies. I have to say this card is absolutely my favorite. Keeping the card clean and simple but with a graphic layout really makes this card a winner. Pulling colors from the flowers, I added a graphic element by splitting the background with pink and black cardstock.

 

A soft purple was blended in the center of the flowers to keep the color palette working. A simple sentiment heat embossed in white onto black cardstock kept the card simple. For added interest, a few white pearls were added to complete the card design.
