Altenew February 2023 Boho Chic Stamp, Die, Stencil & More Release Blog Hop #2 + Giveaway

 

Hello everyone!

Welcome to Altenew's February 2023 release!

I have quite a few cards to share with you.

My first card features the Swamp Buttercup Layering Stencil Set (5 in 1).

Absolutely had a blast creating this project.

I paired it with the amazing Masonry Wall 3D Embossing Folder.

Next up is the tiny but gorgeous Wild Geranium.

I have used this color combination before, but this time I tweaked it a little bit, going more purple instead of plum.

The circle die-cut in the center is Rose Gold CS.

Super fun card! And turned out super vibrant too! Features the Patchwork Tiles Builder Stencil.

It looked more lovely after popping all those gems!

Rainbow is the safest way for me if I cant think of anything LOL 

The rainbow watercolor card features the Boho Arrow Stamp Set.

I had to use one of the lovely washi tapes! The card features Wild Geranium and Gradient Washi Tape - Cherry Blossom A.

Excuse the creases. I made the mistake of using a heat gun too close to this card panel :( 

Otherwise, it looked really beautiful.

The card features Gradient Washi Tape - Cherry Blossom B and Nostalgic Florals Stamp.

Altenew January 2023 Marvelous Monthly Series Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

 

Hello and welcome to Altenew January Marvelous Monthly Release Hop.

You must be here from Michelle Short's blog.

If you just happen to stop by, please start at the Altenew blog.

I have a few cards to share with you, so let's get started.

The first card features the Build-A-Garden: Grand Carnations .

I used the stencils to color through the stencil and also added ink shading for interest. 

For this card, I used the stencil that comes in the Build-A-Garden: Grand Carnations set. Not my favourite as it didn't turn out the way I wanted it to but I still thought I would share it.

And my third, more clean and simple card featuring the Build-A-Garden: Grand Carnations.

The video for this watercolor card is coming soon!! I wanted to share this here, too, so you are on the lookout if you are interested in watercolor tutorials that are slightly involved.

Love how this one turned out. 

The card features the Mini Delight: Wildly Loved Stamp & Die Set.

For this card, I inked a panel in Dark Night Crisp Dye Ink and then used one of the stamps from the Craft Your Life Project Kit: Meadow Breeze. 

I stamped this in Obsidian Ink and then adhered several black gems all over the stamped design. This one looks simple but is sparkly and super classy.

This is my favourite!! This card features the Craft Your Life Project Kit: Meadow Breeze.

I used various inks through the stencil and also quite a bit of ink shading and blending. Then I placed the die-cut on a watercolored panel.

Hi there everyone!

You must be here from LauraJane's blog.

Welcome to the Altenew January 2023 Nostalgic Memories Stamp/Die/Stencil Release Blog Hop.

This card features the Circle Frame Mask Stencil.

I wanted to create a very fun, colourful card so just moved the stencil all over the panel using different inks colors that go together.

The dark blue on this one became way too dark for my liking. The card features the Good Vibes Builder Stencil Set and Label Love Add On Set.

The card features Sixties Sunshine Simple Coloring Stencil. 

After inking through the stencil, I used the Fineliner Pen to outline the flowers and add doodles.

The sentiment is from XOXO & More Die Set.

This one-layer card features the Nostalgic Flowers Stamp and Coloring Stencils. 

I also added detail with Woodless Coloring Pencils.

This card features the Nostalgic Flowers Stamp and die set.

I used the Artists' Watercolor 24 Pan Set to color the image.

Altenew December 2022 Marvelous Monthly Series & Alcohol Markers Set K Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

 

Hi there everyone.

Welcome to the December Marvelous Monthly Release Hop!

You must be here from the fabulous Mindy Eggen's blog.

I have quite a few projects to share with you, so strap up!

I love this new stamp; it's Build-A-Garden: Rosa Gallica and add-om bundle.

As the image is huge and gorgeous, I didn't have to do anything at all except choose the ink colours. 

I went with Northern Shore Dye Inks for the flowers and Fall Harvest for the leaves.

This project features the beautiful Paint-A-Flower: Modern Pink Dianthus Outline Stamp Set.

I have a video for this coming out on 12/19 on the Altenew YouTube channel. 

Again, we have the Paint-A-Flower: Modern Pink Dianthus Outline Stamp Set. 

Here I have used the new Beach Garden Artist Alcohol Markers Set K, which has beautiful oranges, blues, and greys.

To add more to the design, I added the horizontal stripes that I usually add to my one-layer cards, and they look really nice. 

I also filmed the coloring process, so if you are interested, let me know, and I will make sure to share it soon.

The soft-looking card features the beautiful Craft Your Life Project Kit: Watercolor Flowers.

I will share a video for this on the Altenew YouTube channel in the coming weeks. It is a super easy and relaxing watercolour process, really :) 

Another card featuring the Craft Your Life Project Kit: Watercolor Flowers.

This time I used a bunch of dye inks and coloring stencils! Love the result!

This card features the Ambridge Rose Stamp, Die, and Stencil. These are gorgeous, huge roses, and I used ink shading through the stencils to color them. 

$300 in total prizes! To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away 1 FULL RELEASE BUNDLE to 1 lucky winner and a $25 gift certificate to 4 winners!
