Altenew + Pinkfresh Studio “Celebrate” Collaboration Blog Hop Details + Giveaway

Hi there!
 Welcome to the Altenew+Pinkfresh Studio "CELEBRATE" Collaboration Blog Hop Details + Giveaway!   You are arriving from the Pinkfresh Studio Blog  - a list of all the blog hop participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience-

Today, two of my most favorite companies are collaborating in one gorgeous collection "CELEBRATE".  I am so blessed to be part of both design teams, so it was a joy to be able to mix and match stamps, dies, embellishments and papers in my memory keeping.  Let me show you:

For my first spread, i used the Celebrate Us Stamp and Die set to create the gorgeous florals that cascade through the two pages of my spread.

I chose the  This Day paper as the background for the page, then decided to stamp the flowers using Obsidian ink for the outline, and then using just the detailing part of the stamp set to add details to the images (  Altenew Crisp Inks: Parrot, Coral Berry, Buttercream, Rose Quartz, Baby Pink).

I added my lines of journal to a piece of vellum. I added a die cut word (Celebrate Us Die Set) at the top of the journal lines, and then attached it to the background.  Just a few embellishments ( Altenew Enamel dots) and then one of the Celebrate Ephemera pieces as a title.

Simple, colorful and just perfect.  But there is so much more that you can create with this collection, let me show you a pocket page layout:

For this spread, i started by creating my journal page using the Always patterned paper.  I trimmed it to the painted details sit at the top corner of the page.  This time, i used the  Celebrate Today stamp set and Obsidian Ink to create the border around the painted area of the paper - using a mask helps to create the corner cluster stamped image-.

For my title page, i decided to replicate the journal page, and trimmed a corner of the Always paper to fit a 3x4 card pocket.  Then followed by stamping the Celebrate Today floral image on the bottom corner, and finally creating the title with the sentiments  of the same stamp set.  The small heart from the Celebrate Ephemera complete the card.

I just backed my picture with a piece of the This Day paper and then created   a small phrase sentiment using the Celebrate Today stamp sentiments.   This new collection is the perfect combination of paper, embellishments and of course stamps and dies. 

For my last project, i decided to combine the entire collection in one scrapbook page:

For this page, i used the leftover piece of the  Always Paper and paired it up with the Progress paper for the background.  

I used the Celebrate Us stamp set  to create all the florals. This time, i used Altenew's Obsidian Ink for the outline, and Pinkfresh Studio Crip Inks in: Misty Coat, Lemmon Whip, Ballet Slipper, Peach Fuzz, Coral Reef, Fresh Pear and Olive to detail the flowers.

I used the Celebrate Today stamp set to add a little bit of interest to the background.  Using Pinkfresh Studio Crisp inks  ( in coordinating colors as the background), i added a soft impression of the floral cluster and then some of the sentiments to the page.  Then added a few splatters of the diluted ink and Altenew's Metallic Watercolor palette.

To finish the page, i used the Celebrate Us Die set and Pinkfresh Studio Phrase Builder: You Die Set to create the title words.   The following video will show you how this page came together:

Just love how this page came together using the new Celebrate collection...

Scrapbook Layout created for the Vicki Boutin Design Team  - SHINE -

Hi there!

Today's project is for the Vicki Boutin DT, and i wanted to create a clean and delicate masculine page by combining some of the mediums and all the gorgeous papers from the ALL THE GOOD THINGS Collection.

The background of the page was created by splattering water down acrylic paint in a triangular shape to the page.   Then a bit of Gold glaze was added using one of the stencils, so that it creates those little rows of gold circles.

To continue the triangular shape of the page, papers from the "ALL THE GOOD THINGS" collection were trimmed and glued to continue the angular shape, even a little strip of washi tape was added to elongate one of the sides of the design.   All the embellishments in the collection were then scattered along the paper layers and picture just to marry all the colors in the page.

For the title of this page, I simply added one of the glitter foam thickers so that it completes the triangular shape of the page.   Finally to complete the page, a few lines of journal were added to one of the sides of the triangle.  Here is the completed layout:

I love how easy and simple this page turned out.   The mixed media background is soft and delicate but colorful  enough to frame the picture of my 2 boys. I hope you try this.  Here is more in depth look on how this page came together:

This collection is perfect to document travels, and adventure, just take a look at how the first spread came together:

I was lucky to receive the collection just in time to document all my Ecuador trip memories, and honestly it was so easy to use that i created a few more pages with it.

Here is a video on how the rest of the pages came together:
