Altenew Fabulous Flora Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

 

Hello there!

Welcome to ALTENEW FABULOUS FLORA COLLECTION RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY.  You are arriving from Juhi Khanna's blog.  A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience.

Today new Altenew's collection of Embossing Folders, Stencils and Dies is beautiful and versatile.   There is so much you can create with them.  Let me show you what I have created:

My first project is a December Daily entry in my journal.  I used the CROSSING STARS 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER to create the textured background of the picture side of the spread. The stars match the style of the shaker pockets.

To embellish the page, I created a few flowers using the BLOBBY ROSES STENCIL and DIE SET using muted tones of purple and gray.   I simply use them to fill my pockets, and embellishments around the picture.

For my next project, I used the new CURVING LEAVES 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER to create the cover of my 2021 Fall journal.

I used a brayer to apply ink to the folder pre-embossing.  The subtle color change is just enough to make the details pop.  A bit of washi tape and a simple title complete the page.

For my first card, I am using the new GEMS GEOMETRIC 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER.   I love graphic linear designs, and this folder is just a perfect background for all sorts of paper crafting projects.

I added  a small band with a sentiment to the front panel, then used the Festive Florets die to add a focal point to the card.

I used the GENTLE BUTTERFLY 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER for this card.   I love this embossing folder, as butterflies hold a especial place in my heart.

I added ink to the embossing area, trying to shade the outer edge of the card, then used a bit of gray ink to color the butterfly.  A simple sentiment and some gold ink complete the card.

For my last project, I created a slimline card featuring the new IXORA 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER.  This time, I embossed the panel twice, leaving the center space flat in between embossed areas.

I added a bit of ink to the embossed areas, just to make the flowers pop a bit more.   Then cut a simple sentiments three times, stack it together with a bit of an offset, and glued it to the flat part of the card.  A few gems  complete the card.
