Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Fashion Monger Dahlia Outline Stamp Set | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

I even filmed the entire process, I will share it soon if there is interest.

Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Daffodil & Glitter Cardstock Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello! You must be here from the amazingly awesome Amanda Baldwin's blog.

Welcome to the Craft-A-Flower: Daffordil + Glitter Cardstock Release Blog Hop!

I dont have any Craft-a-Flower project to share with you, but I will be sharing two cards featuring the glitter cardstock!

My first card features the Forest Canopy and Ocean Reflection Glitter Cardstock.

I used the Halftone Circles Nesting Die Set to cut out several circles and create this card. Usually I limit this design to five to seven circles. But, in this case, I wanted to feature all the colours of the cardstock and therefore it looks more like a blob 😂.

One of my favourite go to card layouts. I often use this to feature pattern papers or different smaller sized stamps. But for this one, I did something a tad different. I cut several pieces of Pink Brilliance Glitter Cardstock into various widths of strips. Then I adhered these onto a panel and die-cut it using one of the hearts from the Halftone Hearts Die Set. And also die-cut a few other hearts.

I adhered all these on different levels of foam tape on the Woodgrain Powder cardstock card front.

These Glitter Cardstocks are YUMMYYY!!! And oh-so-sparkly! These are going to sell out fast, but if they do, don't forget to sign-up to be notified when they are back in stock because you HAVE to HAVE them in your stash!!!

Altenew Adventures Ahead Stamps/Dies/Stencils/More Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello and welcome to June Stamp/Die Release.

You must be here from Terri Koszler's blog.

For my first card, I used the Reach for the Stars Die Set. For the background, I used the Cloudy Day 3D Embossing Folder.

I also inked the embossed background by swiping a gold ink pad over it. Then I added some splatters too. For the stars, I used the Halftone Stars Nesting Die Set.

For this card, which turned out BEAUTIFUL by the way, I used the entire Sisters of the Heart Stamp, Die, and Colouring Stencil Bundle for this card.

I cant list all the colours I used as I used a lot. And I also used Artist Alcohol Markers to add a few details on the leaves. Also including a graphite pencil to add shading to the stamping in the bbackground.

Again, I used the Sisters of the Heart Stamp which I watercoloured using the Watercolour Brush Markers. I then Die-cut the image and set it aside.

I watercoloured another panel and then dry embossed it using the Brick Wall 3D Embossing Folder.

For my last card, I used the same Sisters of the Heart Stamp Set to create a one-layer card.

I used Artist Alcohol Marker to colour this and kept it super simple.

There you have it! Quite a few ideas on how to use the new products!

Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Lotus Outline Stamp Set Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($200 in Total Prizes)

Hello and welcome to the Paint-A-Flower: Lotus blog hop.

You must be here from Sandhya's blog.

I wanted to give the underwater plants a glow-in-the-dark kind of a look. And I think I did achieve it somewhat. The colouring may look a little messy but it looks great in person. And you know me, I disapprove of my work right away if I think its not worth it. But this one looks really cool in person.

As you can see, I tried to create a halo effect for the elements that are under the water but I coloured everything that's above the water normally.

This took me a while to do but it looks so cool with so many colours in the form of splatters. If you look at the base carefully, you will be able to see blue, brown, rust, and shades of green.

I hid my fish though LOL You can still spot them :)

Altenew will draw 7 random winners from the comments left on each stop of this blog hop and announce the winners on the Altenew Winners Page on 05/30/2021.
