Altenew: A Year In Review Blog Hop + Giveaway

 



Hi there!
Welcome to ALTENEW: A YEAR IN REVIEW BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY.  You are arriving from  Natasha Davies blog.   A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience,

Today, we are celebrating the end of the year with style, and what better way than to relive our most loved projects with you all... These are 4 of my favorites from the year:




I love teal, so I went for projects that were heavy on that color, and represent my style.  Let's take a closer look;



I  love Mixed Media, and Altenew's products are just perfect for it.  This was created for the Altenew blog (08/17/22) and features the new Altenew Pigment Inks,  Modern Hello Stamp set, Dovetail Butterflies Stamp/die set, Lagoon Watercolor Refill, Linear Pathway Outline Alpha stamp set, Watercolor Paper, and Lacy Tile Stencil.  I combined them all to create the title page of my June Journal .





This was created for Altenew's 6th Anniversary blog hop, and is probably one of my favorite projects of the year.   I combined:  JUMBO GARDENING PICKS LAYERING DIE SET, CAPS BOLD ALPHA DIE set, MIX & MATCH MARIPOSA DIE SET, WATERCOLOR PAPER 9x12, LAGOON and SEA BREEZE Refill watercolor, Feeling Dotty Stencil, GRADIENT CARDSTOCK, and WOOD VENEERS.  in this layout.   





This is another of my favorite pages, and once again there is a bit of everything combined in this project created for the Altenew blog on April 27.   I combined ALCOHOL INKS(Mountain Mist, Lagoon, Limestone) DECORATIVE SWIRLS DIE SET, MEGA YOU DIE, BOLD NUMERALS DIE SET-3 to create this entry in my journal.




My last project comes from the August Craft Your Life Project Kit: Lush Garden.   I used the stamps, stencils and dies from the kit to create this pocket page in my journal.   The beautiful flowers of the kit worked beautifully with the inks, and the color combo is just one that I will repeat again and again.

There are so many more that I could have chosen, but these four describe my style in a concise way.  But I am always at awe of what can be created with Altenew's products.
