Hi there!

Welcome to ALTENEW CRAFT-A-FLOWER: BUTTERFLY BUSH RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY. You are arriving from Carol Hintermeier's blog. A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience.

The new CRAFT-A-FLOWER: BUTTERFLY BUSH is actually a super easy layerable flower that is perfect for all sorts of projects. I used the die set to create a new entry in my Me journal

I decided to use the flowers two ways in my page. First, I used the new CAF: BUTTERFLY BUSH as part of the title journal card in the pocket page.

I used vellum to cut the butterflies for this spread, I just love the softness and movement that they add to the page.

I created a large pocket to hold the story and once again embellished it with the CAF: BUTTERFLY BUSH, and vellum butterflies,

The design of the new Craft-A-Flower is indeed perfect for all sorts of projects, and those butterflies are to die for!

Altenew May 2022 Dreams Come True Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

Hello there!

Welcome to ALTENEW MAY 2022 DREAMS COME TRUE COLLECTION RELEASE BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY. You are arriving from LauraJane's blog. A list of all the participants is available at the bottom of this post for your convenience.

The new DREAMS COME TRUE collection is live in the Altenew shop, and it is filled with beautiful stamps, stencils, dies, and embossing folders. Many of these are complement to past favorite stamps sets. Let me show you what I have created with some of the products.

Maybe it was the fact that there is a sentiment is Spanish and the shape of the stamp set that drew me to the HELLO FRIEND Stamp & Die bundle right away. It works perfectly for memory keeping!

I decided to use the HELLO FRIEND Stamp/Die bundle to create the embellishments and title for my page, and also used it to create the journal card for the spread.

The new WISPY JOY Stamp & Die Bundle is beautiful. The flower size is perfect for my family journal, and I am using it to document our Valentine's Day celebration

I am using the sentiments of the HELLO FRIEND stamp set to complete the title of the spread. Love how easily this came together.

For my last project, I am combining the new ALWAYS BE KIND Stamp/Coloring Stencil Bundle, along with the BEAUTIFUL INSIDE Add On stamp set.

The new Simple Layering Coloring stencils area game changer for outline stamps. For this card, I stamped the image from the ALWAYS BE KIND set, then colored it with the coordinating stencil. The sentiments in the BEAUTIFUL INSIDE Add-On stamp set just complete the card....

I hope these have given you some inspiration, and ideas on the possibilities of Altenew's newest release. I am sure you are all choosing favorites at the moment! Remember to take advantage of the free gifts available with purchase
