Altenew Craft Your Life Project Kit: Vintage Tapestry Release Blog Hop

 



Hello and welcome to the Craft Your Life Project Kit Release. 



You must be here from the Altenew Card Blog.

This month's kit is called the Vintage Tapestry and it is GORGEOUS!

I have several cards to share with you but I do apologize in advance that I won't be able to share ink names as I lost all of my data. 




I added a light colour wash on the background before adhering the images. 
All of my cards have a lot of gold splatters!




For this one, I actually added a light ink blending on the background. Each card has something different going on.




Ombre ink blending on the background and a mix of stenciling and stamping.




I used the embossing folder too on this one! So much fun and texture! Again, lots of inking on this too!




Again, I used the embossing folder on this one and on top of that, I used the stencil to apply ink through the stencil. I then ran the panel gain through the embossing folder to get all the gorgeous dimension back! So good!!



I am sure you can tell I had SO MUCH FUN creating these cards! And there is no colouring involved here! 


I hope you liked the cards and that they inspired you.

$300 in total prizes! To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 2 lucky winners and a $ 25 gift certificate to 8 winners!

Such a beautiful array of cards! I am in overload with this release!

Retta said...

I love the flowers in this set. Beautiful cards. Love your colors!

Sarebear said...

This may be the first one that really tempts me. The Garden Rose craft your life has about 1/3 I like, so not enough to spend that for.

This set, though, I adore much of it and can see using the parts I only like.

Stop it, would you? (Just kidding! )

I love especially what a celebration of color your cards are.

Ann Apolito said...

Gorgeous cards Erum. Your a terrific artist.

Linda D said...

Your cards are absolutely gorgeous. I don't have any other word!

Donna Walls said...

These are the prettiest cards I've ever seen.

Maureen Reiss said...

Wow!!!! I have to be honest, I really wasn't feeling this kit. Until I saw your cards!!!! Wow! WOW!!! W*O*W!!!!!!

Jan said...

Absolutely Beautiful....surprised to see that you used the stencil on the embossing folder (AND what I have been waiting for) as the main site says the stencils do NOT match the embossing folder?????? Did I read it wrong?
Paper Hugs,
Jan

Denise S said...

I love the colors and designs and splatters!

Laura Langley said...

I just love all the cards Erum made. Very classic pink with yellow and orange are some of my favorite colors and the backgrounds for all the cards are so electrifyingly beautiful.

Stef Perry said...

Thank you for all the inspiration, Erum, with five wonderful designs showing the versatility of this kit. Gorgeous!

Jen said...

All of these cards are wonderful. That swirl(s) is such a great addition!

Ms. Tamp said...

Great set of cards shares from the kit. I like how the look can be changed by just a color swap or background arrangement.

Linda BL said...

The cards are so pretty. Impossible to pick a favorite!

Lauryne Cunningham said...

Wow! Your cards are stunning! Beautiful designs!

Stacey Kowbel said...

Wow, gorgeous cards! The flowers are so beautiful and love all the sentiment positions, especially the one tucked into the curled leaf!

Cyndi said...

Your cards are absolutely gorgeous. This is an amazing kit -- the florals are amazing.

Kimberly said...

These are so beautiful! Remind me of old Anna Griffin papers. Just lovely.

I have the other CYL kits, but I'm on the fence on this one. I definitely liked the colors that you are using much more, it really helped me see perhaps what I could do. I don't have tons of inks yet, I have a few cube sets of yours but not a lot, but I hope that I can still make this kit work until I can get a few more sets. Your color sense is really tremendous!!! Your cards make me very happy! Hoping to see more kits like the first one, it seems that many of the kits after the first one have been more of the older style of the layering, I have hoped to see more kits like the first one and to see some other flowers other than so many looking like roses. There are so many flowers out there, and combinations that can be done. We all have different tastes and needs, and likely this is meeting lots of creative needs for many. I think that the artwork is beautiful, just that I have stamps and dies from Altenew that are like this already, and I probably have less than many Altenew fans although I have quite a few. It's always a pleasure to see Erum's artwork, what a talented artist!!!

Sandy Baggarly said...
