Altenew Craft Your Life Project Kit: Never Stop Dreaming Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

Hello there!

Welcome to ALTENEW CRAFT YOUR LIFE PROJECT KIT: NEVER STOP DREAMING RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY... You are arriving from Virginia Lu's blog. A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience.

It is time for the new CRAFT YOUR LIFE PROJECT KIT: NEVER STOP DREAMING set, and it is gorgeous. There is so much you can create with one or a combination of some of these. Let me show you what I have created for today's post..

Let's start with the cover page for my personal album (6x8 sn@p album) . I am using the stamp set for this page.

I used gold embossing powder and gold embossing powder to create the blossoms. Then, using the stencil and inks added color to the images.

I clustered two of the images on top of vellum, then added a title to the page.

For my next project, I am taking advantage of the embossing folder form the CRAFT YOUR LIFE PROJECT KIT: NEVER STOP DREAMING . I run white cardstock under the folder, then trimmed the base to a 4x 5.25" panel.

I used a bit of gold ink to highlight the texture of the card. Using the kit's die set, I cut the label from gold paper then added a small die cut sentiment. A few jewels complete the card.

I love how these turned out. Remember to take advantage of the subscription program that way you can receive your monthly kit at a lower price.

Hi there!

Welcome to ALTENEW PAINT-A-FLOWER:CLEMATIS & ARTIST MARKERS RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY. You are arriving from Kelly Griglione's blog. A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience.

Today, Altenew is releasing their new PAINT-A-FLOWER:CLEMATIS stamp set. And of course, it was love at first sight, but then we are also celebrating the release the two new sets of Artist Markers...

Well, I just had to use my semi-good coloring skills to create cards ( yes! I made cards!!)... Let me show you!

I used the new SUNSHINE VALLEY GARDEN SET ARTIST MARKERS to color the PAF: CLEMATIS image for this card. The colors of the markers are amazing!!!

I added a few extra color to the image using Artist Markers Set E, then added a sentiment from Birch Forest Stamp set to complete my card!

For my second card, I am using the new Airbrushed Flowers stamp set. This time, I colored my images using the new ARTIST MARKER WATER GARDEN set.

For this card, I added interest to the background using the Stone Wall stencil, then used a sentiment from the PAF: CLEMATIS to complete my card.

I love how these cards came out (even with the semi professional coloring!). Be sure to check the new release in the Altenew shop, and subscribe to the Paint-a-Flower program, in order to receive your stamp each month at your door (for a lower price)

Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Snowdrops Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hi there!

Welcome to ALTENEW CRAFT-A-FLOWER: SNOWDROPS RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY. You are arriving from Terri Koszler's Blog. A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience.

Today we are welcoming the new CRAFT-A-FLOWER: SNOWDROPS to the Altenew family of dies. This new set is amazing!!! It is simple to layer, and the results are so delicate and realistic you are going to love working with it!

Just love the new die, and decided to work it into cards ( OMG, no memory keeping this time around!!!)

These cards were such a fun and beautiful way to show off the new dies...

My first card is a slimline card. For this, I created my panel with wood grain paper. I lightly rubbed Antique Gold pigment ink, which brings the texture of the cardstock to the surface. While the ink dried, I used the new CAF: SNOWDROPS to cut a few of the flowers and leaves and put them together with a bit of adhesive.

I decided to trim the wood grain before attaching it to the panel, and left about an inch gap for my sentiment ( Shades of Friendship stamp set). I used the die cuts to embellish the top part of the panel. I made sure all the flowers followed a similar direction and created a soft cascade. A few clear drops complete the card.

For my next card, I started with a piece of Yupo paper and Pure Graphite Artist Marker Refill. I love Alcohol ink backgrounds. While the background dried, I cut a few of the CAF: SNOWDROPS, and assembled them so that they are facing different sides of the card.

I cut different color of leaves so that I could mixed them on the card front. I set the die cuts in different directions on top of the alcohol ink background. This time, I used a sentiment from the Bergenia Builder Stamp set to finish the card.

I just love the simple beauty of the die cuts, and how they are so easy to put together. Remember you can always have the new CRAFT-A-FLOWER release arrive at your doorstep by starting a subscription program.
