Altenew Thanks and Blessings Stamps/Dies/Stencils/Embossing Folders Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

Welcome to the September release blog hop and giveaway, you should have arrived here from Nathalie DeSousa, if not you can go back to the start of the hop at anytime by visiting the Altenew Card Blog or alternatively you can use the links at the end of this post to navigate.

As you can see from the image above this release is jam packed with stamps, dies, stencil, embossing folders and tools. We are also starting to see some of this years Christmas themed items! The release is in Store and ready to purchase.

My first card uses the new All About Thanks Word Die Set,I cut the layers from Black and ink glitter caed. I used the 6x6" Wildflower paper pad and Dotted Swirls Debossing die along with the Fine Frames Rectangle dies to add layers of interest.

Next up is the Cartoon Tulips Stamp set and Coordinating Die set, I stamped in zingy yellows and greens. I used the All About Thanks Word Die Set to cut my sentiment. Using the Window Slats Embossing Folder and Verdant Walk 6x6 Paper Pad I created the background and then added a few Enamel Dots.

Are you ready for new Christmas Items? Here's the Dry Brush Poinsettia Stamp set and Coordinating die set. How pretty are they? I used the Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder for the background, i like how it add's a little something without overpowering the design.

Here I have used the Bouquet of Love Stamp Set from a previous release with the new Greatest Blessing Stamp Set and Coordinating die set. I love how they look together, a little ink blending and very minimal colouring of the images creates such a clean look.

My last card is another new Christmas/festive set, I used the Joy to the world Typography Stamp set and Coordinating die set to create the focal sentiment, I added in the Simple coloring stencil too. The background was created with the Dotted Starburst cover die. The smaller sentiment was stamped on to a die cut using the Essential Sentiment Strip Dies.

Altenew Build-A-Flower: Wild Rose Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($200 in total prizes)

Welcome to the September Build-A-Flower release blog hop and giveaway, you should have arrived here from Jenny Colacicco, if not you can go back to the start of the hop at any time by visiting the Altenew Card Blog.

Introducing the Build-A-Flower Wild Rose

If you're a lover of wild roses, this set will hit the mark! This stamp set features a beautiful wild rose with cupped semi-double flowers. The flower image includes an outline layer and three coloring layers for the petals and the stamens. There is also has a branch bearing five leaves with an outline layer and three coloring layers. Eight uplifting sentiments and a couple of mini flower clusters finish off the set.

This stamp set feels like home to me, it's style is the exact style that made me fall in love with Altenew all those years ago. I love the stunning realistic flower. I used inks from the Tea Party Oval Ink Pads for the flower and Forest Glades Ink pads for the leaves.

I die cut the images and added them to an A2 notecard which I prepared using the Moroccan Lattice Cover Die which I cut from black cardstck. I added a stamped sentiment and a few enamel hearts from the Tea Party Enamel Dots.

As you've probably noticed by now, I love to juxtapose Delicate floral images with bold black elements.

Altenew Plentiful Patterns Stand-alone Dies/Stencils Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

Welcome to the Plentiful Patterns release blog hop and giveaway, you should have arrived here form Verity Biddlecombe, if not you can go back to the start of the hop at any time by visiting Altenew Card Blog.

This release consists of four new stencils and ten dies sets. Purchase the new release in store today! I have four cards to share with you today,lets take a closer look.

My first card showcases 3 of the new items, I started by inking a light background using the Illusions Hexagons stencil in a light pink ink on to an A2 note card. I then cut the Polka Dot Leaves in teal tones, I used the Impressionist Bouquet 3 in 1 Stencil to ink the floral elements and cut them using the coordinating die set. I added a sentiment from the Seasonal Blooms project kit. I also added some enamel dots to embellish the card.

My next card showcases the Itty Bitty Flowers die set. I cut the flowers and stem using a combination of Rose Petal Gradient card and Pink Brilliance Glitter card. I cut a piece of paper from the Wildflower 6x6 paper pad using one of the frames form the Mix and Match frames die set I added a sentiment from the Seasonal Blooms project kit.

My next card was really fun to create, I used the Brick Rosette 2 in 1 builder stencil set to create a background panel in Hot pink and Teal,I then added a sentiment to a black panel using the new You Matter die set, a few enamel dots and a black card base finish this card up perfectly.

My final card is fun of beautiful pastel colours and is such a fun design. I cut the wave form die from five pastel card stocks and mixed them up, this actually gives me another four cards to use at another time. I then used the dotted frame form the Mix and Match frames die set to add detail to them. I added the sentiments from the You Matter die set on foam tape for added height and interest.

Your next stop is the awesome Daniel Diaz, before you go don't forget to check out the giveaway information below.
