Altenew February 2022 Flowers & Swirls Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

 


Hi there!

Welcome to ALTENEW FEBRUARY 2022 FLOWERS & SWIRLS COLLECTION RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY.  You are arriving from Laura Bassen's blog. A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this page for your convenience




There is so much to love in this new release from Altenew;  from layering flower dies to a complete gorgeous flower suite, it was easy and hard to pick what to work with... Let me show you what I have created:



I love the new MAGNOLIA BALLERINA Stamp/Die/Coloring Stencil/Embossing Folder Bundle, and use all of the suite to create this new spread in my daily journal.




I love how the die set and coloring stencil fit the embossing folder perfectly; this means I can create a dimensional embellishment for my project in a few steps. Plus the MAGNOLIA BALLERINA Stamp set has the best sentiments -perfect to create titles, too-




I am a fan of partial die cutting elements; so the new EDGED WILDFLOWER DIE was one I wanted to use  for this page( boys and flowers match perfectly!!!).




Once again, I reached for the MAGNOLIA BALLERINA STAMP SET for some of  the sentiments to  create the title for this spread.



 

I love geometric/graphic dies, and the new STARLIGHT DIE combines those two qualities.  The shape reminded me of  a snowflake; so, it made it so easy to use to document the weather here in Toronto, lately!

And of course, I made cards!!!




The new WISPY FEATHERS LAYERED DIE SET is one I loved as soon as I saw the design of the feathers.  I wanted to keep the card light and airy as the feathers.   So, I cut the feathers from white cardstock, and the backing shape from vellum.




I used a WISPY FEATHERS DIE SET to cut one of the outline shapes from metallic cardstock, and used it as a middle layer in the top feather... The hint of the color adds dimension and definition to the card.  Did I mentioned, I am loving all the sentiment in the MAGNOLIA BALLERINA STAMP SET!




For my last project, I am using the new DAINTY LEAVES DIE SET to create my card, and I love how this turned out. I cut a few of the leaves from vellum and white cardstock, then bundled them together inside a small tag (Terrific Tags Die set, colored with Liquid Watercolor refills)



One last time, I am using the MAGNOLIA BALLERINA stamp set to add the sentiment on the card's tag.  Just love how this turned out, and might mass produce this design!


I hope these have given you some inspiration for your future projects with today's release.   I cannot wait to see what you create.

Of course, Altenew is celebrating the release with a fun GIVEAWAY


$300 in total prizes! 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 03/03/2022 for a chance to win.
