Hello and welcome to the Extraordinary Embellishments Blog Hop. 

You must be here from the lovely LauraJane's blog.

If you just happen to stop by, please head to the Altenew Blog to start the hop from the beginning.

My first card features the Instant Rainbow Washi Tape and the Bountiful Butterflies Die Set.

I added a light watercolor background and some gems to the butterflies. The sentiment is from Crafty Life Stamp Set.

I made this panel for myself. This features the Mega Alphabet E Die and the Golden Dots Wide Washi Tape.

I added gold splatters and then adhered the die-cut with foam tape. The sentiment is from the Sentiment Strips 2 Stamp Set.

This project features the Block Rainbow Washi Tape and Caps Bold Alpha Die Set.

The sentiment is from the Sentiment Strips 2 Stamp Set. 

I shared these cards on Instagram a week or so ago during the IG hop. They feature the Calming Bouquet Washi Tape.

I fussy cut a bunch of flowers from the washi tape. 

For the first card, I created a watercolor background and adhered the florals with liquid adhesive.

For this card, I kept it super simple. Just added black splatters and adhered the fussy-cut florals with liquid adhesive.

Altenew January 2023 Nostalgic Memories Stamp/Die/Stencil Release Blog Hop #2 + Giveaway

 

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!

Unleash Your Inner Artist Blog Hop + Giveaway

 

Hello and welcome to the Altenew 

December 2022 Artists'Gouache Set - Strolling Through New York Release

You must be here from Therese Calvird's blog.

I created two panels for this release.

I recreated this red panel again for tomorrow's video hop. I hope that you will check it out.

Direct link HERE, which will be active tomorrow at 9:00 am EST.

I am new to gouache paints, so I had to struggle a bit. I am more of a loose watercolor kind of person. And this is more for people who like to stay "in control".

However, I enjoyed experimenting and playing around with the pigment and consistency. Trying to figure out how much water was the right amount of water. And I will tell you that it takes a few tries, just like everything :)

Altenew September 2022 Enchanted Winter Collection Release Blog Hop

 

Hello and welcome to the Altenew September 2022 Enchanted Winter Collection Release Blog Hop!

You must be here from Mugdha's blog.

 If not, then please head over to the Altenew Card Blog to start the hop from the top, so you don't miss out on anything!

I have two cards to share with you. And I created videos for both of them, which you will see soon on the Altenew YouTube channel on my weekly series there!

My first card features the Poinsettia Cluster 3D Embossing Folder. Isn't it just gorgeous?! 

So many possibilities with this one!

I dont want to share much about this card. This one is Artist Alcohol Markers on embossed panel. I hope you will check out my tutorial, which will be live on 9/26 on the Altenew YouTube channel. It is SUPER duper easy. 

This card features the Pine Forest 3D Embossing Folder. I usually prefer blues for my winter-themed cards, especially those that look like this. But I thought I would change things up.

This one is watercolors on embossed panels. Thoroughly enjoyed creating this card.

$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! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or each designer’s blog post on the blog hop list below by 09/28/2022 for a chance to win.
