Altenew May 2020 Stamps/Dies/Stencils Release Blog Hop + Giveaway



Hello everyone!
You must be here from Ashlea Cornell's blog.


For my card, I used the Shine Like a Diamond Stamp Set.
I heat embossed the design in Pure White Embossing Powder and used the Watercolour Brush Markers by Altenew to colour the background in rainbow colours. 



The "Shine" was fussy cut but the coordinating die will be available soon in the shop!


To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 6 lucky winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or Altenew Mixed Media Blog by 5/17/2020 for a chance to win. 

We’ll also draw a winner to receive a $20 gift certificate from the comments left on each designer’s blog on the blog hop list below. All winners will be announced on the Altenew blogs on 5/20/2020. 


Next stop on the hop is the amazing Jaycee Gaspar!
