  Have a Wonderful Time of the Year with Altenew in 2025!

 

 Altenew is giving a $50 gift certificate to the

 Let's give a big Thank You to Altenew.  Their products are so much fun to work and create with.

Here's some final floral inspiration:

Arlene's card used the freebie printables at Altenew.



Sue N's card features Altenew's Charming Doodles stamp and die set which unfortunately is retired. However, Altenew has so many floral stamp and die sets which would work similarly. For details on how she created her card, please check out her foleysfriend blog.


Dawn has used an old favourite Altenew set Beautiful Day   
You can see full details at Dawn's World.


and made a bonus card - using an older stencil - Sweet Spring.


Lucille made a flower card with a blank inside to be used for any occasion.


Linda used several Altenew sets, including Dear Dahlias.

Hello You Floral

 Hi Dawn here to share my sample for this month's challenge.  It's a challenge that warms my heart... my favourite theme and sponsored by my favourite company....

FLOWERS

Our sponsor this month is Altenew. They will be giving our winner a $50 gift certificate to their online store. Thank you Altenew for this very generous gift.


Here's what I came up with.


I used Altenew Perfect Gift set - stamps, stencils, dies and embossing folder to make this one.  I used the embossing folder to add the embossed background.  It embosses the frame and the flower.. but I chose to stamp the flower separately and used the stencil to add the colour before die cutting it.   I used purples from Altenew Enchanted Garden set and greens from Tropical Forest set. The centre was Fresh Lemon but I added some Spectrum Noir clear glitter pen.   For my sentiment I die cut two from Altenew Versatile Greetings set from purple card.   I also made the little purple embellishments by cutting some paler purple card with a tiny circle background die - not sure where I got it as it is unbranded.  Made a LOT of dots!  I added a few here and there and added some glossy accents to them so they look like enamel dots. 

We'd love to see your gorgeous FLOWER projects here

Hi! It's Sue here on the Die Cut Divas blog today. For the month of April, our challenge is

FLOWERS

Our sponsor this month is Altenew. They will be giving our winner a $50 gift certificate to their online store. Thank you Altenew for this very generous gift.


Here's my card

For my card, I used parts of Altenew's Perfect Gift bundle including 3D embossing folder, layering stencils and die set. I embossed first, then used the layering stencils and distress inks to add color. The sentiment uses Altenew's Adore You stamp set. For more specifics on how I put together my card, please visit my foleysfriend blog.

Thinking Of You Art Journal Page

 Hello there,

Cindy here to present another Flower theme inspiration.  Today I've created an art journal page featuring Altenew Craft-A-Flower Pansies Layering Die Set.


I did some ink blending on the background paper (mix media paper already slightly colored).  I stamped some text randomly, and applied volume paste thru stencil in selected areas.  After everything is nice and dried, I adhered the watercolored pansies onto the page.  To truly make this my own, I hand wrote "thinking of", the meaning of the Pansies in Chinese.

Altenew is our sponsor this April, and they are giving away a $50 gift card to our challenge winner (randomly selected from all the eligible entries).  Our challenge theme this month is: Flowers.


Remember to use die cut and/or dry embossing with Flowers for our April challenge.  I look forward to seeing your creations.

For further details and full supply list, visit my blog: Escape To Stamping.

That's it for now.  Have a great day!
